Formerly known as “X-Rated” as in “Adults Only”. NC-17 means “No One 17 and Under Admitted” (Prior to that, “No Children Under 17 Admitted”). But if you ask me (and I’m telling you it anyhow), it should have remain “X”, for “Adults Only”. In my opinion, the MPAA went just a little too far back in 1990. They should have just left well enough alone.
Blanche, he’s an 800-year-old wizard, not your 14-year-old son. It wouldn’t have to be over your dead body — he could simply turn you into an end table until he got back!
That’s a rating you don’t see anymore. Besides, ratings are weaker to get a wider audience. Although you could say the same thing about the G rating. You still see it, but very rarely.

“Over your own dead body,” sounds safer.

So the “Breakfast Club” was rated R and today movies like “50 Shades of Gray” are rated R. Yes things have really changed.

It was the language and the drug scene, that got The Breakfast Club the R rating.

No matter. Any movie or TV show we record that has swearing in it will first have to be removed. We have software for that.

I remember when Gremlins came out it was a horror flick. Fast forward ten years, it stood on a movie shelf next to Mary Poppins.

As opposed to NCC-1701, depicting death on planetary scale, blowing up spaceships, and only hinting at romantic situations.
