Kick-Ass the movie

Why would anyone want to kick a donkey anyway?

IMDB says this:
It's a widely reported myth that the original title of the film was "South Park: All Hell Breaks Loose" and the MPAA forced Trey Parker and Matt Stone to change the title, stating that all movie titles must be G-rated (despite the fact that there are many movies with the word "hell" in them - Hellraiser (1987), Hellfighters (1968), From Hell (2001), etc.). The story comes directly from Parker and Stone who claim that they submitted the film with the original title and were forced to change it. Richard Taylor, a spokesman for the MPAA, denies that any film was ever submitted with that title and that the MPAA did not reject the use of the word "hell" in the title.

No. I actually heard good things about it, though. Also, I think the MPAA is about the most moronic entity on the planet. Seriously . . . a few seconds of bare breasts, or say the "f word" a couple times and you have an automatic R rating. But the Lord of the Rings can show a battle between humans and Orcs where humans are first realistically (and graphically) killed with swords and spears. And then hundreds of severed human heads are catapulted over the city walls to demoralize the people inside. It shows all this. It looks totally real.
Yeah . . . PG-13
Totally mind-boggling. So don't get me wrong . . . ;D

It's like Bruce Campbell said, "You can chop off a breast, you just can't kiss it."
