Public Outcry Helps Win “Bully” Ratings Battle

In a shocking turn of events, the MPAA has overturned their initial rating of the crucial and pivotal documentary “Bully”. The Weinstein Company has agreed to remove 3 instances of the use of the “F” word in order to hand down the R rating. A key bully scene however, which was at the center of the rating dispute has agreed to be left in and uncut.

As many of our readers know we have backed The Weinstein Company and their fight for this films ability to be seen by as many people as possible. This new turn of events will happily allow many to do that and hopefully opens many eyes to the disgrace that the rating system CAN be. We know many of you were key in helping us voice our and your opinion in this case and we would like to formally say thank you and thank you to all those who helped fight for this cause. So many times outcries and fights like this go unwon, but today we can say to everyone who voiced their feelings, “We won”!!

Thank you to all our readers and be sure to spread the word that the films rating has changed and encourage everyone who has, has had, will have, loves,works with and appreciates children to see this film and hopefully this wave of difference making can continue on a much larger level.

The Rating System Is A Joke

We at Love Your Movies aim to always be objective and review or make commentary in a fair fashion. We understand the need for a rating system and realize that there are some things children of younger age should and shouldn’t see. We also believe that the rating system should NOT be so black and white. We strongly support the Weinstein Company and there efforts for everyone to see their new documentary, Bully. It’s a subject that everyone needs to be aware of and shown in a frank manor despite what words are used. We hope all our readers and supporters agree with us and hope you voice your opinion via twitter, facebook or what ever means you have. If you support our views please like AND share this view.
