minus-squareniktemadur@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up2·2 months agoCrazy to think that Jaws was rated PG, but it’s true.
minus-squareDagwood222@lemm.eelinkfedilinkEnglisharrow-up3·2 months agoLook at “Thunderball,” the Bondiest of the Bond movies. Bond assaults a nurse, kills a dozen guys with a spear gun, and that movie was considered fine for general audiences. They even sold Bond toys to little kids, including a fake knife.
