Er..., a fair proportion of 'R' ratings end up as 15 the UK.  So it could still be a 15.

Apologies if I sound patronising (that means "talking down to people", by the way  ;)), but they don't have a 15 certificate in the US.  Anything higher than PG13 (i.e. UK 12A) gets 'R' (which means that an under-17 can see it if accompanied by an adult).

So, some 'R' stuff ends up in the UK as 15 and some as 18.  I'd guess it's probably a 50:50 split.

some upcoming films have been rated in the US and DREDD is one of them

It will be rated R  for "strong bloody violence, language, drug use and some sexual content"

You sure?No sign of it here:http://mpaa.org/search/dredd

Am I the only person that keeps reading chuffsteruk as clusterfuck?

Maybe I've got dyslexia and tourettes. It would explain a lot...

Always thought R was the US version of an 18? You live and learn.
And I didn't find your comment patronising at all honest,thanks you for including the definition though, saved me a job looking it up,I'm awful wiv big wurds.

The US version of 18 is Rated NC-17: No Children Under 17 Admitted. It replaced the old X-rating.


Rated R: Restricted – Under 17 Requires Accompanying Parent or Adult Guardian.

I was epecting a 15, but the news of the 'nudity' part of the R leads me to think theyve maybe left THAT SCENE in (unless there's a bunch of tits-oot cits for no reason). I look forward to people excusing and praising that, while at the same time gnashing their teeth over a bit of underwear and cleavage in Flesh.

Im really glad ive promised myself not to bother with Dredd.

Why would they? I don't recall many excusing and praising it so far.

If it was nudity I think it would have said - it probably is that scene but we'll have to see how it's played.

I still think it's gratuitous but I don't think it's going to be particularly explicit.

I don't have a problem with nudity in the comic or on-screen.

Cheer up, it's not that bad. For example, if I realised that I was going to spend my birthday chatting online with a Mister Men character, I would have started drinking a lot earlier...

I don't have a problem with nudity in the prog, I have a problem with Carter acting like she's in a reader's letter in Fiesta magazine, using her tits and fanny to buy her way out of trouble.

And why have you "promised myself not to bother with Dredd."? Seems utterly ridiculous to me, especially considering (with all due respect) all the other utter tosh you like to watch. As a Dredd fan, surely you want to see it?
