The Cult of Lincoln

Sunday, July 24, 2005



*snorks* The MPAA has insisted on a modification of the new Serenity poster, removing River's gun. Apparently, this is because of some rule regarding the use of firearms by one underage. If they object so to weaponry, shouldn't they be modifying the Star Wars posters, too? If I remember correctly, according to my shooting script, Luke was supposed to be 16 in ANH (while River is 17 at the time of Serenity), yet there he is, in almost every poster, weilding either a blaster or a lightsaber. You know what effect that might have on impressionable young children!

(Yes, I understand why it's important. It's just funny, and a bit annoying. The poster was growing on me.)
