I Fucking HATE Censorship

"Fight Club" is out in the UK on Monday. But the fucking BBFC have forced the filmmakers to cut the original Angel Face "beating scene".

For fucks sake, why do they think they have the right to tell me what I can and cannot watch?

Good for you.

And that was not sarcastic, BTW.

Neither was that.

DAMN!

But I am serious, none of this is sarcastic.

FUCK!!!!!

Sometimes I hate the internet.

the beating scene was edited for USA consumption too. when the DVD came out it included the uncut version, with some scenes, like the beating, intact. while I think that cesorship is wrong, that scene didn't need to be uncut to make the point it made .. unless you really like seeing some guy swallowing his teeth.

I'd rather not be protected from the ugliness of real-life. This shit happens (people getting beat up... not tons of nitro blowing up major credit card companies... unfortunately).
