Hi,

I re-contributed now for the 2nd time an title because i got both times the text:
"The contributed profile is an adult entry, but was not marked as such. Please set a genre as Adult or the rating as Adult."

I set it to 'adult' and re-contributed but also like some weeks ago with another title this is not an porn movie or such at all. Its 'erotic' but very soft core !

Maybe there should be an 'porn' setting instead of 'adult' as the rating already tells the age goal !!

Atleast the marking 'adult' suggests to me that it is an porn movie, otherwise all NR, NC-17 or even R titles would be 'adult' automaticly !?!?

Greets,

Arno

ps. I finally got phpDVDProfiler to work on GoDaddy.com !! GREAT !

The "adult" settings relate to the US rating system.
So "Adult" doesn't necessarily mean "Porn", but all content that doesn't seem suitable for underage people, this normally gets shown by the rating.
It all seems so stupid, it makes me want to give up!
But why should I give up, when it all seems so stupid?

I personally think Adult genre must be used on hardcore/proper porn, but can also be applicable to softcore erotica (if that is the main thrust of the film - pun intended)

Adult rating should IMO only be applied to hardcore/proper porn
It is dangerous to be right in matters where established men are wrong

For example, Star Wars is an adult movie by anyone's standard, it's more than 30 years old.

The reviewer erred in this case.  We enforce 'adult' only for pornographic films, or in cases where the cover depicts full nudity.  I've reprocessed the original contribution and withdrawn the resubmitted one.

Thank you Ken.

The same is then the case for the re-contributed title "Game of Seduction (Une femme fidèle) 1976" 029502-012373.

I am glad you cleared this matter that 'adult' stand for 'porno' and not others titles, with the exception of sleeve art with full nudity.

The 'contribution rules' are not so clear about it as it says "Use the “Adult” rating for all Adult films".

But now its 100% clear - maybe your line, that you wrote here, can be pasted over the current one in the 'contribution rules' so everybody can take note about it.


With kind regards,

Arno

This is good to know.  There are quite a few DVDs which are neither pornographic or have covers depicting full nudity that MIGHT be classified as "adult" (e.g., Midnight Cowboy or Last Tango in Paris).  They certainly have adult themes, but would hardly be films the majority of users would want to "hide" from prying eyes.

What?! Since when it's only allowed for adults to watch someone naked or why does this have anything to do with pornography?

One other title of which might be construed to be an adult title, Caligula-1979. For graphic violence and nudity.

LOL, Martin, hence the debate that has waged for years through the US court system. Pronography, like beauty, is in the eye of the beholder. There are those that would see that image and say ho-hum, there are others that would go apoplectic.<shrugs> Also explains why a SCOTUS judge famously said, "I can't define porography, but I know it when I see it."
