Now, i've recently heard that there is a portion in renaissance part 1( a few seconds, i could be wrong on this) which involves police tearing the clothes off a female android then begin beating the crap out of "her".
Ok, now we understand that the censorship board thinks:
1. it's ok for us to see 3d humans wearing a g-string wielding samurai swords and systematically stripping each other.
2. It's ok for us to see tanks crushing androids(Tiananmen) and executing them(probably somalia)
So, it is my conclusion that the censorship board prefers massacre and cold blooded murder over violence to a robot made to look like a female.
Hell, they even kept the part where the machine torn the poor pilot screaming for help out of his battle suit and humans cut in half and the back of their head removed to reveal their brains. They didn't mind the naked humans that were attached like poultry in a butcher shop.
Yet they are concern over violence to a female andriod. Why is this?
I believe i just boosted the online sales of non edited animatrix.
i never believed in censorship very much.. although must acknowledge it is a necessary evil.
cos in the end, who watches the films and decides to cut scenes? the censors? so r we saying these people are above us all and will not be tainted by the contents of the film that are supposed to taint the rest of us? wonder wonder.. or is my logic wrong?
anyway since censors are still humans, and prob humans using a certain set of guidelines to choose wat to keep and wat to cut, there will surely be flaws in the system.
