: : The only thing that MAY get shelved/refused to be shown/etc. is a movie where planes fly into skyscrapers (except if it's a movie about 9/11).
: I have to agree barry,anything pre 9/11 shoouldn't be 'censored' or not shown but do you think it will affect the type's of movies being made in general (will it ever be acceptable to see a rambo or james bond type figure engaging a middle eastern charachter?Die another day has already been banned in N korea even before the current political stalemate arose)
movies should not be tampered with. thats how we get things like walkie talkies instead of guns in ET. but i think producers are going to be more careful than usual. sure we may still get the movies we used to, but i think they will try to avoid any situation possible. like sum of all fears. did huge bank. no middle eastern terrorists. i think were giong to be seeing changes like that more often. the middle east is just a big no no now
