LA Times article on the MPAA

well, the real question is how much it costs to get it rated in a way that helps his box office...NC-17 doesn't get you R numbers.

LOL... according to the article, the crew stalked the MPAA members and went through their trash, and they had no idea about it all until they received the DVD. That may have been an awkward screening to be at, huh? But definitely sounds interesting...

So yeah, let us know it turns out!

Seven people have admitted piracy charges after copying and sharing a DVD copy of Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge Of The Sith before it was released in cinemas last year. The six American men and one woman face a maximum $100,000 fine and one year in jail for allowing an eighth individual to upload the film onto the Internet. Albert Valente, 28, swiped a copy of the George Lucas-directed film from his workplace in Los Angeles and passed it along to the others until it reached an eighth party, Marc Hoaglin, 28, who has admitted to putting a copy on the internet. Hoaglin is due to be sentenced in March. The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) said in a statement, "We are glad to see the Star Wars thieves brought to justice. Stealing copyrights is a serious problem, and the theft and illegal distribution of Revenge of the Sith was a glaring example of how the actions of dishonest people can cheat the movie-watching experience."
