I personally think that eliminating the current ratings system in favor of this new 'simplistic' ratings system is garbage. I understand the simplicity of it, and I also see the pro that it may put a little more responsibility in the hands of parents to educate themselves as to what their kids want to see, and making sure that that is the movie that they walk into once dropped off at the theater, or whatever have you. However, in this age of faster and better and more, this new ratings system simply just isnt efficient whatsoever. By this new system, we pretty much have eliminated the PG and the PG13, thus now we would only have G and R.. so what.. we have a G that includes movies like Finding Nemo or Cinderella, but then movies like Star Wars and Pirates of the Caribbean would be paired with movies such as Saw or Hostel and all be labeled R?? That seems a bit much. The multi categorized system we have now makes it easier and simpler for parents to look at the ratings on movies, and know what kind of content that this movie may or may not contain. Granted, kids mature at all different levels, and there is all different kinds of content in these movies, but as someone mentioned before, that it the reasoning behind the listing of the objectionable content under the letter rating. This is what parents should be looking at. And I don't think that this makes them irresponsible. The bottom line is that parents simply need to be aware of what their children are watching, and I don't think that a new ratings system is the solution.
