A "pedophilic" sex scene nonetheless. He was 21, she was just short of her 18th birthday. I know that's not technically pedophillia but it is the generally accepted meaning of the word.

My suggested ratings:

Kids - No (real) violence, no sex or drugs -IE: Aladin
G - Some shocking scenes, no sex or drugs - IE: Finding Nemo
PG - Minor violence, scattered foul language - IE: Bruce Almighty
Teen - Serious themes, violent action scenes, some T&A - IE: The Rundown, Riddick (which I have not seen)
17+ - Anything goes.


Regardless of the rating system some jackass parent will think their kid is old enuff to "handle it." When I saw South Part:BL&UC, there was a parent in front of me with a 10yr old girl. What is wrong with these people?
