: It says in bold underneath the "R" rating - "bonus material is unrated".
: The intros from Jay and Silent Bob MUST be classed as bonus?
: Same goes for the commentaries, same goes on ALL bonus materials appearing on DVD's, they're all unrated. This DEMANDS an explaination!
: What about all those kiddies rushing out to make the finest purchase of their lives? To finally get there and be unable to fucking purchase a copy of clerks TAS!!!!!!
: I'm pissed off now!!
In America, since ratings are only advisory, I'm pretty sure that you don't actually have to be of age to buy things in the shops, even though you need a guardian with you in cinemas to see an R. Pretty illogical, ESPECIALLY since they don't bother to rate bonus material, but nice nonetheless.
I think the DVD probably got the R because of Jay's intros, but if those are just classed as bonus material, some of the stuff in the show, like the porno mag with the sticky pages, could be the reason.
