throbber Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Liar liar is on TV today and because it is a 12 certificate with some slightly naughty language in it it has been edited so all the funniest gags aren’t in the film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

On New Years eve they showed the unedited version of the Dambusters with the dog repeatedly getting called by it's outdated name. Would have assumed that would be changed too tbh. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

With such inoffensive films as Liar Liar though when they edit out words like “b*****d” and a few mild sexual references it completely ruins the film as so many of the gags are cut short. You shouldn’t need to edit films that you’re showing at daytime nowadays anyway, show that it’s a 12 certificate with a bit of naughty language if parents don’t want their kids viewing it and just show the movie as it is. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Remember seeing an American film where they edited motherfucker to melon farmer. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

throbber Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 Yeah, I seen that too, calling the dog "digger" Sounds a bit like when the “F” word was edited out of Fairytale of New York. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zen Archer (Raconteur) Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 There is a version of The Presidio where Sean Connery saying bullshit is overdubbed with bushwar, totally fucks up the film. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
throbber Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 This is making me more annoyed, as I said there is just no need to be editing films in this day and age so that children won’t hear a swear word during the day time. Just clearly show that a film is a 12,15 or 18 certificate and let the parents put what ever security measures they want on their smart TVs and show the fucking films as they are. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

milton75 Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 The Big Lebowski one on here is moderately amusing. https://www.pastemagazine.com/articles/2017/04/the-5-most-hilariously-edited-films-to-watch-on-tv.html I've seen a few with the Doggone Melon Farmer mentioned previously. Just stupid. And I remember ITV showing Lethal Weapon 2 back in the mid 90s. Despite showing it in the evening, Joe Pesci was dubbed to be loudly complaining that "they frig you at the drive thru". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DA Baracus Posted January 2, 2019 Share Posted January 2, 2019 (edited) Americans are fine with kids getting shot and showing very graphic stuff on the news repeatedly each day but absolutely draw the line at 'swear words' in films. An odd place. Edited January 2, 2019 by DA Baracus 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
