Common Sense Media warns parents of The Hunger Games

No matter what you do people will have something to bitch about. If you let your 11 year old read a book that describes children killing children then you shouldn't complain about the movie being violent. That's my opinion.

Petition to urge MPAA to overturn Bully rating signed by thousands

Honestly, for the MPAA to stand so firmly to an R-rating due to nothing but language, and not violence, is really retarded. I remember hearing kids use swear words as young as 3rd grade, if not younger. I think kids that are allowed to see PG-13 movies can handle some swearing.

I don't know what is more mind boggling... the fact that the MPAA is citing language as reasoning and not violence in a movie centered around bullying or if the movie really contains that little violence and is about bullying. Either way, I hope the film somehow gets a PG-13. Kids should see it.
