Please read the topic before responding to the title. The film has been cut and given a rating, it is no longer banned. - KwarK |

Ratings are entirely arbitrary. If they aren't, then there's guidelines, and they can just release which ones they've stepped on to cause the film to be banned. They can do it without spoilers; ala the varying video game ratings boards that are out there.
Honestly, it's entirely counterproductive. The human centipede wasn't exactly known, and neither was the director, but now; tons of people are going to watch it because they found out about it.

Nobody should watch this piece of shit movie. If it was free, good for a laugh? You still have a fucked up sense of humour but maybe. But paying people to make this film is total injustice. This movie actually deserves not to be seen and no one should have to ban it to accomplish that, aside from the private theatres who just decide not to run it. Absurd trash merely being thrown out there doesn't justify free speech violations.

I would give it to you because you right of speaking like you want is in this case more worth than my right of not being blamed. you have to weigh, every time... ;') 1. Your posts are unbelievably stupid. 2. I don't believe English is your first language, though on account of 1 it's not impossible. 3. You don't understand what a "right" is at least in terms of law. Either that or your comprehension of the English language is so abysmal you can't properly articulate a single thought.
1. looks like you are form that group that learned to start your post with a blaming. you should team up with the other guy who comes from the "end a post with a blaming" group. 2. give this man 100 points. btw you can check by just looking at the header of a post.... strange that you didnt find this out yet after 500 posts. 3. i dont talk over a right in terms of law. how can i talk over right in terms of law when i talk over right to make a law?
4. your right. my english is to bad to discuss such a complicated thing and this forum is totally the wrong place to discuss such complicated things too.

This. Though I can understand what he tries to bring across because of the fairly German structure and phrases he uses, I can however assure you that his train of thought is in no way more tolerable than it must seem to a native speaker. It's pants on head retarded.
Talk about freedom of speech.
Movies/art should be censored hard cause u sicko!!!

Sounds like it could be interesting, yet it also sounds like it's the worst movie story and concept I have ever heard of, but meh. That's what you got to do to top the whole hostel and saw industry.
This thankfully explains my confusion surrounding the south park episode and how the hell they managed to come up with their centipad. It's all so much clearer now, but I haven't quite decided if I prefered to live in ignorance or in bliss yet.
You know, the way you worded that makes it sound like you're blissful now that you've discovered the joys of this film, right?  But yeah, I was wondering when something like this would come out. Stuff like saw and hostel would eventually lead to stuff like this. Not that I really care that it did, I was just wondering how long it would take for someone to actually go "You know what saw needs? More people eating feces.". I was betting on 10 years, and I guess I was wrong!
Oops, I guess saying that I'm happier of the fact that I now know what the episode was actually about is a more accurate statement!
The most interesting about this is wondering what they'll do next to top this trend again. I'm glad I don't know the answer >_<

It's called mainstream media. They've been bringing attention to shit that doesn't matter for centuries. The people that are the best at it reside at Fox News.

If it'd be up to me. I'd rather ban the making of movies like HC.

I bet the book is better than the movie

Sounds like good material for Cannibal Corpse to write a new song.

Banning doesn't always means it will get tons of views. Do you remember a movie called Grotesque? Probably not, and it was just recently banned in the UK as well. And still no one knows about it. Banned movies are common, not all of them gets attention. This one is just better at marketing as shown in the second video on the OP. It's getting some attention because of their marketing, not just because it's getting banned.

Why are you sorry for that? im not sorry for you that English is your first language. if you dont understand nr 3, it have nothing to do with language^^
Anyways i wanted to give some arguments why its not a violence of freedom of speach or art if you ban this movie. I have the feeling my english is just to bad to make my points clear.
And i have the feeling most of the guys here are to young and to be honest just not able to make such a discussion. it was a mistake to start it. TL is not the place for stuff like this. So sorry for my interruption. go on with "yeah freedom of speech" "shit movie".....
