Hollywood's hidden agenda
KSL is reporting on a Federal court ruling against film editors. <a  
href="http://www.ksl.com/?sid=347823&nid=148">Story Here</a>. I have  
stopped watching movies in the theaters and have waited to get the  
'edited' version at home because I don't enjoy Hollywood's gratuitous  
inclusion of amoral ideas, verbiage, and depictions which, 90% of the  
time, have no bearing on the story line.
The edited movie boxes include the original and edited versions side- 
by-side and allow the consumer full choice on what to view.
Why should this be illegal? What is the difference between watching a  
shortened version of a movie and reading excerpts of a political  
speech in the Wall Street Journal? Aren't both just providing options  
to consumers? Why aren't speech writers demanding that their work  
should be read in entirety?
It seems Hollywood is more interested in debasing us than in  
providing entertainment to the largest possible audience.
