Oh wow this DVD has the MPAA "You Wouldn't Steal a Car" anti-piracy ad

(It's a 2006 20th Century Fox release of Mel Brooks' 1970 film THE TWELVE CHAIRS)

The #MotionPictureProductionCode, aka #HaysCode, was put in place on #ThisDayInHistory in 1930. It was enforced aggressively from 1934, applying strict censorship to the use of violence, crime, sex, & religion in US films. In 1968 it was replaced by the #MPAA film rating system.

With the bar set extraordinarily high for NC-17 and AO for films and video games, the only reason for the MPA and the ESRB to apply those ratings is to condemn a work's contents, with the effect of damaging its commercial prospects, while at the same time making it seem mystical to all the daring. Who said anything about being informative?
