ITV Censoring Rant!

Galaxy Quest has a blatant 'Dub' to get it a PG rating in the Cinemas

When 'Tim the Toolman' and 'Ripley from Aliens' are in the Tunnels trying to find the 'Ultimate Weapon' (The Omega 13 Device) there's one of those 'Cartoon Multiple Anvil' scenes that you usually see bugs bunny slipping through or Super Mario in an old 8bit game!... the two of them freeze at the sight of this obstacle and and Sigourney shouts "Screw That!!" but her mouth is clearly (as she's shouting it, its very clear!!..) saying "(naughty word beginning with an F) That" ...

Makes I larf as I have the un BBFC'd/MPAA'd version on Region 1 DVD and she's not dubbed in that!!..

Wicked Film BTW...

Plus my version of 'Fith Element' (R1 Superbit) the bloke screams 'SMOKE YOU!!' un-dubbed.. I know this as I watched it 2 days ago when I was bored (its a good fallback film when you can't decide what to watch from a 350+ DVD collection).

Indeed - it's definitely "smoke you".
 
What about the bad editing in Transformers, obviously in order to get it passed as a 12 they had to cut some swearing, in the desert as they are chased by the scorpion the whole soundtrack goes silent to cut it out, its silly.

In aliens too,
it not even that bad

" I say we grease this rat fat son of a bitch right now"

Just before Hudson gets killed, they just cut the sound completely when they first showed it, we thought there was something wrong with the telly.
