So here I am, watching Flags of our Fathers on AMC. Its the war weekend when we celebrate their sacrifice, watch war movies, yadd yadda. I haven't seen this one yet so I'm excited. What do I hear to my dismay? Everyone is saying shoot and darn, I mean... darn that guy who I just cut up with a bayonet with all that squishy sounding detail, the guy with his guts hanging out, watching human bodies explode by the dozen... yea... darn thats some intense stuff. I'm sure glad that nobody is swearing though. It may give people the wrong idea.
![]() Whats even funnier, is this is the channel that shows Breaking Bad totally uncensored. How does this make any sense at all? Now I know the inevitable "Do you really need swearing to enjoy a movie?" argument is inbound, but really what annoys me most of all is the fact that its obviously dubbed. Its as distracting as a black bar over someone's eyes. I'd be cool if the movie was made with no swearing but seeing the gore accompanied by the censored language makes me giggle. I just heard as I'm typing this "Its a [frriggin] slaughter" bracketed word being a dub, and 2 seconds later arty lands on the man who watched his language and his severed head lands on the guy he was talking to, no cut made to spare us that nasty detail. I remember being 8 or 10 years old swearing with my friends at school. I tell you one thing I didn't see at that age: exploding bodies. Why are we censoring the stuff everyone is exposed to at an early age and allowing us to experience the grusome stuff that exists at the furthest end of human cruelty? I don't get it. Do you guys think a few swear words do more harm to our culture than wholesale gore? |
