Facing the Giants

Popular Culture

Christian moviemakers whine to congress because one of their movies got a PG rating. Congressmen talk of holding trials and express the fear that the ratings might be subjective (did they think it a science?).

MPAA:

“Any strong or mature discussion of any subject matter results in at least a PG rating,” Glickman said. “This movie had a mature discussion about pregnancy, for example. It also had other mature discussions that some parents might want to be aware of before taking their kids to see this movie.”

A PG rating means parental guidance is suggested because the MPAA believes some material may not be suitable for children. A G rating means the MPAA has found the movie acceptable for all audiences.

Glickman said the movie’s producers agreed with the rating and never appealed it.

Comments

Congress is grandstanding again. Anytime they see a chance to come to the aid of the "oppressed" Christian religion, they grab it. Always good for a few votes back home.

How do you feel?

Feel free to share your feelings about Facing the Giants. Please stick to the theme of the entry. Disagreement is fine. Homophobia, racism, and kindred expressions of hatred will be deleted. This site is one of my hobbies. I genuinely enjoy hearing from people and hate moderating or killing comments. Forthright disagreement is fine as long as it is civil.
My thanks,
