Dean1700 4 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 It has been reported in Sydney's major newspaper today that Episode II has received an M 15+ rating when it openings in two weeks time. As it was reported the "Office of Film and Literature Classification Board yesterday confirmed the film's rating, which means it is recommended for mature persons".I guess scenes where Darth Maul is cut in half are okay to be given only PG ratings.

Damo 0 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 I live in Sydney Australia, I did have a feeling Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith will become rated M-15+ in Australia. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docteur Qui 1,544 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Not unexpected, from what little I've heard. I still think PoA should have been M15+... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Damo 0 Posted May 4, 2005 Share Posted May 4, 2005 Harry Potter & the Prisoner of Azkaban was going to be rated as M15+. But a four member panel of the Classification Review Board has concluded that PoA should be rated PG, rather than the M15+ originally signed. I don't really know what was the reason for changing Prisoner of Azkaban from M15+ to PG. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jynxpossum 0 Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 Yay Episode III is M!! Moderate science fiction violenceOn my DVD of Attack of the Clones it says it is M, I have always wondered why since the theatrical release was PG. Anyone know?

Damo 0 Posted May 5, 2005 Share Posted May 5, 2005 I think whoever put M15+ on the DVD front cover of Attack of the Clones was a mistake. Attack of the Clones has never been rated M. Is it just your DVD say it is rated M? I just browsing net I found more than one DVD cover from Attack of the Clones Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
