They're always after me lucky charms
Do you want to know what I think the biggest sham in Hollywood is? I don't care if you want to know, I'm telling you anyway. I believe the unrated version of movies released on DVD are a big waste of money.
Lately the unrated version has been coming out for goofy frat boy movies which are usually chock full of sex, nudity, and KY jelly. The rationale is simple: the R rated version has to be understandably restrained. If they let every bit of full frontal nudity in the movie, they'd get slapped with an NC-17 rating! So they chop it out and get an R rating, then release the "unrated" version which supposedly puts in all the stuff that was too hot for the theater.
But, as I said, it's a sham. I don't think there is any difference. If it is, it's negligible. They want you to think it's going to be ten minutes longer with a tasty lesbian sex scene, or something. They can slap a few extra dollars on the price, call it unrated and set it lose on the public.
Oh big Hollywood studio, you ain't fooling me. I know your unrated edition is all lies. You can entice me with the prospect of all the extra nudity you want, but I know better. Unrated edition? More like stupid edition!
(On the other hand, I am scared to see what is in the "unrated" Family Guy DVD...)
