Two Australian Ratings Advice Sequences

[@MetalPatrick93]

I've had that scene where Mel Gibson shouts "GIVE ME BACK MY SON!!!!" stuck in my head for 15 years and never knew where it came from...

[@superbusstarodub]

+Jake English In my head I had the idea it was Tom Cruise yelling it in Minority Report for some reason.

[@tonysgourakis2173]

It comes from the movie Ransom

[@DucNguyen0131]

Great! But there was an earlier ratings advice sequence made in the late 1980s/early 1990s that featured TV star Bill Collins discussing the Australian film ratings (in the same way Simon Bates did with the British film ratings).

[@mzcrazyhunnii]

Thank you for uploading. I was just thinking about the first ad.. such memories

[@sandothemando3047]

Saw American Psycho not long ago. When I saw those two scenes in the movie I remembered way back to when I saw this as a kid and was like, "Oh, so that's the movie those scenes were from.

[@mongrelchimera]

That film isn’t even rated R though 🤷‍♂️

[@RLACDC2000]

the mel gibson part scared me when this came on before the wiggles and teletubbies

[@JamesTaylorMain]

What's the movie about the Mel Gibson part?

[@RLACDC2000]

I still don't know. Sorry. All I know is I was scared to watch teletubbies for a whole week when I was 3.

Music playing during the American Psycho/R18+ scene at 1:58 is "Heirate Mich" by Rammstein.

[@KoiNoYokan37]

very cool RIP PAUL WALKER

[@Ladyluckdoubtable]

I love how in the cases of the "R" rated movies, there's some "wink wink, nudge nudge" suggestiveness from the adults, yet the "R" rated movies are rated R for the violence rather than sexually explicit material.

[@AussieRoadshow]

The MA15+ rating was introduced in May 1993. The first to get it was a film called Chain of Desire on 17 May, followed by To Protect and Serve on 18 May :) I think Silence of the Lambs fits well into MA15+ (it's current rating). It's definitely not an R18+ film.

[@RobertJW]

How often are films re-rated?

[@AussieRoadshow]

@@RobertJW They only get re-rated if the film distributor resubmits it for rating, which usually only happens for older films getting a re-release. There have been numerous times a rating has been lowered because of this

[@PalZer0]

I wish these would make a comeback (albeit updated with the new icons).

Some say that there should be a new system. Where it classifies it in ages so like MA16+ if that’s a good example it’s coming from BTN.

M, MA and R have been classified with age gating for decades...

[@Tubewings]

@Hugo Guidon X18+ is for films that are pornographic in nature.

[@cradica]

@@Tubewings Now what's interesting is Interspecies Reviewers was rated MA-15+ in Australia (or TV-MA in the US) censored however the uncensored version was picked up by a hen tai studio in the US (despite being nothing more then a really spicy ecchi) and was OUTRIGHT BANNED in Aus! Now in Germany it was rated 16 but only the 3rd episode was 18 (but not the same kind of 18+ it has in the US) confusingly enough? Since the American 18+ can ONLY appear on home video (you would not find it on most streaming sites, much like X) whereas you can find the German 18 on streaming NO PROBLEM! The manga was said to be tamer and it was rated M (equivalent to R-18+) but the show was EVEN WORSE than that!!!

[@BlackCatFilmProductions]

I remember the early 1990s ad at Blockbusters.

[@ollywilson7307]

Where can you buy these shirts?

[@TheFrankiemonkey]

They were just made for the ad

[@zonic26]

Men In Black was originally rated PG when released on VHS but future formats and releases from DVD onwards had it rated as M and so was the original release of Men In Black II as PG

[@AussieRoadshow]

@zonic26 MIB was actually originally rated M, but was cut slightly at the time by the distributor for a more commercially viable PG rating.

[@zonic26]

@AussieRoadshow Also the line when K shoots off Jeebs' head "You insenstive prick" which was in the original and changed to "You insensitive jerk" in the edited version, it's actually the latter on all of our releases that I've owned

[@RobertJW]

MICHAEL J FOX WAS IN BOTH OF THESE. WHAT. Marty McFly, for like a frame, in the BTTF3 scene. And then voice acting for Stuart Little. Weird coincidence.

[@zonic26]

I also realised the guy playing the dad with each of the families seems to be the same guy, the one who in the second ad mentioned the R18+ rated movies

[@vacantvideostore]

Watching the first ad again unlocked the memory about how I had a crush on the goth daughter when I was a kid lol. Would have been in the tween age bracket myself and always guessed she was a few years older than me.

[@coolbrett]

Can someone tell me what the MA and R rated movies were in the first ad?

[@AussieRoadshow]

The MA film is Tobe Hooper's Night Terrors. The R is Body of Evidence.

[@emilydominko]

was that Cillian Murphy in 2:01? I could've swore that was him!

X 18+ movies contain explicit, unsimulated sex and are illegal to sell, except in the ACT.

X rated movies are porn only

[@robertcarldecker]

Braeden Jeffery as in the Australian Capital Territory?

[@TheCranberrySource]

Braeden Jeffery And the NT as well. All the territories don’t have restrictions on X films. This dates back to when the states individually banned X films (you can’t thank a moral panic from Rev Fred Nile and Mary Whitehouse visiting from the UK for that).
