Banned films in SA revealed

I think parliament may have unknowingly provided a lot of people with the answer to the question: What should I download with my extra Web Africa gigs?
 
I think most people who have an internet connection regularly consume x-rated content that would be "XX" rated (or higher) by the FPB. Hell, from some of the titles that doesn't sound bad enough to be banned (not sure about the German video though).
 
Wonder who's job it is to watch these titles and decide whether they're XX or X.
 
Wonder what mainstream movies they have rated X or XX?
Nymphomaniac?
Antichrist?
A Serbian film?
Shortbus?
9 Songs?

Would be interesting to know.

There ia bathroom scene in the movie, (black and white) .... and for this the movie was X rated in 1961 in Britain ......

You simply have to watch the movie to see how things have changed over the years.

One of those movies where the Soviets and US join forces to save earth.... no thanks. Why don't they make movies about the Americans and the Nazis joining forces .... ?
 
Didn't know we had such an archaic thing as "banning" stuff in SA. At most they managed to create a lot of interest & curiosity about it.:confused:

Then again...one mustn't expect too much on the "thought things through" front I guess.

Banned in the 1980s but tame by today's standards.

Stranger still is that the internet makes the FPB obsolete in a way .
