Kevin Smith Gets Away With Porn

Kevin Smith uses his smooth talking skills and his girlish figure to win him the rating of R, instead of NC-17, for his up and coming film: Zach and Miri Make a Porno. Some of the MPAA ratings board argued that some of the scenes were just a little too raunchy to casually just stand in the “R” line.

“Anybody not inclined to see a movie with `Porno’ in the title is not going to see it, so it kind of regulates itself to a degree,” Smith said. “And anybody who is going is not going to be surprised by what they see.”

I think you’re missing the point, Mr. Smith. It’s not that we’re trying to keep those uptight Christians out there satisfied, we just want to make sure that if a eleven year old is going to see his first pair of honkers, it’s going to have to be their teacher’s on that afternoon she asks him to stay after school for a little one-on-one practice. Those soft-core R-rated sex scenes are really only there to pique and fuel the curiosity for when that one fateful day comes around.
