Seth Rogen on "Porno" Censorship

June 22nd, 2008 in Actors, Comedy, Directors

The NC-17 rating is considered a death sentence for movies as most movie theaters don’t show these movies and most distributors don’t even consider supporting one. It seems that director Kevin Smith is having a couple of issues with the rating of his upcoming comedy Zack and Miri Make a Porno which was recently issued with a NC-17 rating from MPAA.

Seth Rogen, who stars in the film, has a few choice words for the MPAA: "They are really ****ing around with us…A guy ****ing a donkey, they ain’t got no problem with, but a man and a woman having sex they seem to have real issues with, for some weird reason. It’s insane. It’s completely insane."

He also talks about the harsh treatment movies get when it comes to sex than violence. "They [fight against] sex stuff. Isn’t that weird?” he asked. “It’s really crazy to me that ‘Hostel’ is fine, with people gouging their eyes out and sh– like that, but you can’t show two people having sex — that’s too much."

The film currently has a release date of October 31.
