Let's watch the excellent NSFW documentary, This Film Is Not Yet Rated
Surgoshan:
Documentarian? Why not documenter?
KvP:
Sorry, still a bit loopy. I was probably thinking of Movementarians from the Simpsons.

Oh my god thank you. I had been wanting to see this for a long time.
Dimmukane:
Well, this brings up the question...should we write letters to the MPAA demanding lower ratings for films? Would that kind of 'pressure' work? What about the FCC? Or should we request that the studios advertise and put more NC-17 films in theatres? The only reason I knew about A Dirty Shame was because the local newspaper (not even the regional/state newspaper) had an article about it being NC-17.
KvP:
The names of the MPAA board members are kept secret, so a letter campaign probably won't even get past secretaries (and even if it did, it's not as if you have any say in what your interests are as a viewer. The MPAA is ostensibly protecting the interests of the people who don't write in.) And as far as I know the fate of NC-17 and unrated movies is decided by the theater chains and video stores, not the studios. The wide moratorium on such films is self-regulation.
