Caption This: This Film Is Not Yet Rated Giveaway
Filed under: Documentary, Independent, Movie Marketing, Contests, Insert Caption, Cinematical Indie
Boy, we here at Cinematical are just swimming in swag for you folks lately. Write the best caption for the above still from Kirby Dick's This Film Is Not Yet Rated, and you'll win some cool promo items from the film: A t-shirt (black with white ink) that says on the front "Censorship Gets F*cked" (the back has the film's logo) and a military style hat with the film's logo. Please note the nature of these items, and if you are likely to be offended by a shirt bearing the "F" word, well, don't enter this contest.
The film delves into the murky waters of film ratings, examining whether Hollywood studio films and indies are rated equally for comparable content, whether gay-themed content is judged more harshly than similar heterosexual content, the always fun issue of extreme violence (which often gets a pass) versus sexuality (which tends more to end up on the cutting room floor), and -- most of all -- why the MPAA keeps its process such a deeply-guarded secret, and whether this allows the MPAA a free hand without being held accountable. The film has made the rounds of the fest circuit and is opening September 1in New York and Los Angeles, with wider release over the coming weeks. Rules are the same as always, folks. Enter your best caption in the comments. You have until 5PM EDT on Thursday, August 31 to leave your entry, and winner will be announced on Friday, September 1.

Yeah, see, that's Jack Valenti on the left sacrificing the baby. Glickman's the one wearing the necklace of human ears.

"He's the one that gave Superman Returns the PG-13! He kept more than a million 8 year olds from seeing the picture! And (gulp) her - oh, she decided Mysterious Skin and Requiem for a Dream were as unsuitable for adults as Flesh Gordon Meets the Cosmic Cheerleaders - while Little Miss Sunshine is as unwholesome as Basic Instinct 2! Look close - they've got V-chips implanted between their eyes."

As the paparazzi waited, one of them quickly shouts, "Look over there, it's the elusive Suri Cruise"

POINTING WOMAN: Look! That guy over there is wearing a T-shirt that says, "Censorship Gets F*cked!" That's terrible!
The woman looking through the binoculars puts them down slowly. Clearly, she recognizes him.
WOMAN WITH BINOCULARS (voice-over): I knew the man she pointed out. A long time ago, he was someone I called lover. But now, he is a crazed shell of a man, truly the most tortured of souls. Hell holds no threat for him, for what punishment could be worse than to be betrayed by she for whom you would die. Yes, it is true. I am the reason this poor bastard wanders the streets of our quiet, unassuming town like the Minotaur through the Labyrinth. But I... I find myself lost in the evermore byzantine chambers of his heart. And the light to find my way out? I extinguished that long ago.
A single tear slides down the right eyepiece of the binoculars. It hangs on the edge for what seems like an eternity and then... disappears.
THE END.

I'm almost positive that Valenti's the one in the feather boa.

Members of the MPAA Board spying on a family watching Brokeback Mountain.
Woman 1# See that smut they are watching? Someone should cut their f*ing heads off for watching that homosexual perversity!!
Woman #2 Yes I am aroused and don't know how to deal with my own sexuality. I would definitely rate it NC-17.

"Look there, in the distance! It's Chuck Norris!"
(Chuck Norris runs up to the car and roundhouse kicks them both, simultaneously. Hence why it is rude to point.)

Despite the label's promises, the binoculars were not powerful enough to see her mother's hangnail.

"There it is! I can't believe it. Good night sweet prince." Two onlookers pay their respects as Tom Cruise's career slowly drifts off to sea.
