From WENN.com

My 2 cents regarding the following news clip posted below.

I would support this if similar actions were to take place in the US of A. I would like to see less films promoting and romanticizing the use of destructive violence.


Movie Posters Banned.

Posters advertising Angelina Jolie's latest film "Wanted" have been banned in Britain for allegedly promoting violence.

The images that accompany this summer's action thriller show the Hollywood beauty lying across the bonnet of a car, grasping a gun.

The posters also show the film's other star - Scottish actor James McAvoy- with a weapon in each hand and an accompanying slogan which suggested his life is better since he became an assassin.

And now Britain's Advertising Standards Authority has banned the adverts after receiving a spate of complaints about the images.

Actor John C. Reilly dreads filming sex scenes - because he worries he will become aroused by his female co-stars.

The "Step Brothers" star insists his body responds favourably while he is in bed with an actress, despite the many distractions on set.

He says, "It's always really uncomfortable to have to swap spit with someone and rub bodies. People (actors) always say, 'In a lovemaking scene, sex is the furthest thing from your mind because you're worried about the crew and lighting'. Bulls**t!

"If you lie naked against someone of the opposite sex, things happen. The plumbing department doesn't always get in touch with the brain. It just happens!

"You're simulating sex so your body is very confused."
