Agreed, but I think there are times they go overboard. It's not always evolving in the right direction. Example: nudity in movies used to be judged based on context, with sexual nudity getting a stricter rating than non-sexual nudity. Now it's just an automatic R. go back and watch the old 70's Invasion of the Body Snatchers with Sutherland in it. I tossed that on the monitors when I was working at a video store once, not realizing how much the rating system had changed. Full frontal nudity, but since it's not a sexual situation, the movie's PG.
