For/Against MPAA

I am both for and against the MPAA. Some of the god things about this organization is that they are able to categorize the movies that parents could use when they take their children. Also, many teens look at the rating to determine wether the movie is going to be good or bad. The bad things about this organization is that movies aren't able to be shown in Hollywood with the consent of the MPAA. I think the organization has way too much power over the movies and should only be limited on the ratings. All in all, I really can't say that i dislike or like the MPAA because I base my movies on that system. Like if a movie is rated G or PG, chances are that I am not going to watch it in theaters. However, if a movie is rated PG-13 or R, then depending the script of the movie, I more and likely going to watch it in theaters.
