quote:You were wrong. Now you want to play conspiracy theory. How about you post something that shows it was banned. Cause as of now you have nothing.
And when did it show on TV in 66, 67, 68, 69, 70, 71, 72, 73, etc.? Just a coincidence
Are you really suggesting that it deserved more viewings? Based on what? There are countless great movies that weren't replayed.
How many times you see Three Days of the Condor on Tv? Or the Parallax View?
Omg. You've just convinced me that there is a conspiracy.

Lemme splain it to ya, Bucky. My point is that banning the Sony movie is nothing new. Movies have been banned for stupid reasons before. If you don't think MC was banned then how about FREAKS? It was cutting edge at the time but deemed too visually disturbing (adults with birth defects) to be shown.
Then there is Birth of a Nation. By far the most significant film of it's day. But banned because it depicted the KKK as being justified due to Reconstruction abuses.
Then you had the TV series of Amos and Andy. It's reruns were run in afternoons in the early 60s, then banned in the late 60s because it was deemed offensive to blacks. It was a very funny show.
