InFireBaptize 0 Posted October 23, 2009 (edited) From the article it seems it was banned only in Spain, not the whole europe if you go to their facebook fan page, it says that the movie has been banned from Europe!! Edit: ok maybe by Europe they main Spain only!! Edit: so misleading, even in Spain, it's not technically banned but only limited on where to be shown! i assume x rated is for porn and/or violence?

Pathy 0 Posted October 23, 2009 I'm pretty sure this is more a reflection of ignorance about what constitutes Europe than of reality of where this film is banned. One European nation banning it =/= Europe banning it. It'd be like judging Canada on the basis of Mexico's actions - same continent does not mean same policy. "Wow, you're from Oxford?! What part of Europe is that?" - actual quote from a US citizen I met on my travels Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vilas 477 Posted October 23, 2009 why people watch sick films full of crime ? from my point of view it also should be banned for example websites living from showing dead people bodies, victims of accidents it is against human dignity some young and not grown person may have changed psycho because of such films i understand normal movies, stupid thrillers, but such "gore and blood and cyco killer" is for me stupid and danger for people with not ready brain construction another example is war - young americans 18 years boys who should be playing football go and kill other people in country which is not theirs they should play football with friends, cherish teenagers age and maybe study in peace, read books, play on guitar and grown in normal conditions they later have broken morality, bad dreams, some commit suicides, some have really devastated brain, cause young man believes in politics bullshits the same to horrors, when young kid will be watching such movies, looking at websites with dead bodies, accidents' victims, he will be looking for more and more drastic entertainment and his sensitivity to other people will be lost thats why governments sometimes have to protect people against themselves the fact that something not influent 20 o 50 o 80 % of people, do not mean that others won't be infected and make problems look for example at guns problem in USA, a lot of violence, people killed in schools, why ? (of course lobby to sell guns), while in other countries where there is such control on guns, you can be sure your kid won't be killed in school 90% of people won't kill, and use gun on training, while some cyco easy will take submachinegun if there is control and psychological testing, than such psycho has almost 0% chance to get gun and he is to scared to even kick someone cause he can be kicked the same to movies 95% people will watch SAW and nothing other ? one may kill someone, other won't help man on street i lived in country when there was censorship under communism we almost had no violence and crimes on street violent movies and now "kid 15 years old raped and killed 13 years old girl and quoting guys from movies doing this" etc. sometimes people must be protected before themselves what shocked me last time guy had accident, fall of something, leg broken, he was on the street and noone helped !!! what the fuck happened to society there is a man who need help and noone moves and sick 12-15 years old kid is recording it to mobile ? such kid should get his leg broken in revenge ! till guy with broken leg crawled to police camera noone helped, than police arrived sick what happened with society previously in socialisms it was unthinkable !! people's sensitivity was killed by such movies noone cares if someone is starving, some take mobile to record it sick cause some people start to treat others pain as their entertainment if human brain is not grown to some level, he should not watch gore or he should be protected against his own not-grown last time i reported to my friend from police headquarters website, when guy jacks off on dead cat body, guy killed cat and onanises at dead cat other guy puts photo of man killed by truck ... what is family feelings of poor man smashed by truck ? and for sick fucker it is entertainment :/ it is impossible that such shit is walking this earth Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Either way, I couldn't care less if 'Saw MCCIV: Revenge of the Lumberjack' or whatever instalment they've reached in this pointless 'saga', gets shown in Europe. I got bored after the first one Edited October 23, 2009 by da12thMonkey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Archamedes 10 Posted October 23, 2009 its not banned here in the uk, however im surprised because we have such a tight nanny state, topped on with political correct madness. The government are constantly taking decisions out of peoples hands and deciding what we should do and make it law. They tried to ban games like grand theft auto when some stupid 16 year old copied the game and killed someone. Luckily enough Rockstar games turned around and said "there is an 18 certificate on the game for a reason, he shouldn't be playing it and im sorry but at 16 you are old enough to know the difference between game and reality. lock him up, its his fault not ours." But back on topic. i do hope this is the last one because the series is really starting to get old now. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
MehMan 0 Posted October 23, 2009 I got bored after the first one The first one could've been good, if they made a few changes. It could've been a phonebooth-esque thriller. They should've switched the doctor actor first off, he was poor. But in any case, it's a cheap flick, I enjoyed it, I think it should've been more psychological than thrasher, but it wasn't. All the rest in the series were pretty poor, the acting was average, the only relief offered was Tobin Bell in the role of Jigsaw, but that's mainly because you barely get to see him, but then he gets explained and what not.

privatenoob 0 Posted October 23, 2009 I luv those movies! :D I just wonder how many more sequels there are going to be, Im planning on buying them on DVD but not a box cos they will probably keep them coming. Sounds promising it got an X rating anyway, even in Spain. :p Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
