To the Dark Side
The MPAA has rejected THINKFilm's initial poster for Alex Gibney's Taxi to the Dark Side, one of the year's most acclaimed films, over a Corbis photograph of a two US soldiers leading away a hooded prisoner.
In accordance with the high moral standards the MPAA represents, however, gory films like Hostel 2 about women being slashed to bloody bits for no reason whatsoever are still totally okay. (Greencine Daily for the link roundup.)
