If Hollywood had a clue they would compromise on this. All I've heard is how movies are bombing right and left. If it wasn't for the latest Johnny Depp Pirate movie, the movie industry would have another bad season.

Why don't motion picture distributors get together with companies that want to remove cussing/nudity/sex scenes etc out of movies. If the companies pay royalties to the movie industry for cleaned up movies, then sell them to people who would otherwise not see the film, it's a win win situation.

I do not believe a company has the right to take a movie and change the content without the expressed permission of the owner of the film. However, when there is money to be made, I'm surprised Hollywood isn't jumping at the chance.

Hollywood isn't only about making money. It is also about insulting red state Christian prudes, enlightening the rest of society, and impressing their Hollywood buddies.
