"PAMPANGA Rep. Francis L. Nepomuceno has warned parents on the psychological effects of bringing their children to watch the movie 'King Kong,' which opened in theaters on December 14.Wow. A Congressman that cares. Oh wait, A Philippine Congressman that cares about minors.
The Peter Jackson-directed movie, which stars Naomi Watts and Adrien Brody, is a remake of the classic 1933 love story between a 25-foot ape and a beautiful captive.
Nepomuceno, chairman of the House committee on civil service and professional regulation, said the movie was not suitable for minors because of its 'excessively violent' scenes..."
I'm not sure if King Kong is that violent. I mean, I didn't hear a peep out of him when that Mel Gibson flick, The Passion, came out.
Ack! I forgot, religious cult freaks can vote, minors can't.
