Saint Angie Banned In The U.K.
Not Saint Angelina herself. If that happened, the world would be sucked into a black hole.
Just a couple of posters featuring Saint Angie holding a couple of guns were banned. The U.K.'s Advertising Standards Authority ruled that two movie posters for "Wanted" glamorize guns and violence. Only 17 complaints were made against the posters, but the ASA felt it was enough to ban them forever!
They issued this statement: "We acknowledged most viewers would understand the posters reflected the content of an action film. However, we considered that because the ads featured a glamorous actress, action poses, several images of, or related to guns and aspirational text, they could be seen to glamorize the use of guns and violence."
The studio said the images "were highly stylized and in keeping with the comic-book-based nature of the flick." That being said, they still had no choice but to pull the posters out of circulation.
Please! Guns were not the reason why the posters were banned! Saint Angelina's holy image is too much to take. Cars crashed into things! Trains grinded to a halt! Men went into convulsions in the streets. Schoolchildren missed class, because they were spending their days kneeling on the sidewalk, worshipping her image. It was a distraction.
And you know the head bitch of the ASA will disappear in a cloud of white smoke!

I was thinking how bony her damn arms looked.
And it's funny. Born, raised, and living in America, I am so accustomed to seeing images like this that it doesn't even bother me anymore. It's sick. Violence is glamourized way too much. No wonder we have so much crime for such an industrialized nation. A lot of these teenagers here in NYC think they're so cool with their guns, shooting and killing eachother. It's beyond sick.

It should be banned for glamorizing anorexia.
She looks like a skeleton in a wig.

News like that makes my day. Too bad it's 4 pm.
And by the way, this poster is a real work of art. What don't we have there: trout lips, anorexic arm, hideous tattoos, and a gun as a latest fashion accesory. In other words, an ideal woman..
They got it all wrong...they should have banned the movie!

I don't understand Angie. She talks about world peace, and all the union stuff and good will stuff she does and yet she has a golden gun around her neck her own child drew for her and she does glamourize violence and guns.
Really strange. I'm glad they were banned.
**********************
I agree 100%! What is wrong with this woman? She preaches about all these poor refugees left without homes because of war, etc. blah blah... but yet she's all for guns and violence. I don't care if she's just acting or not. She's not a good role model by any means. Plus, sporting a gun necklace is NOT acting. She does that shit in real life and what does that say to her children? Sounds like her son will have the same obsession with guns that she has with knives. She's a genuine influence and a half!

I agree with the Brits. It's blatent, vulgar and grotesque. Is it a poster for a movie or a gun advert? Typical American CRAP. Guns, explosions, guns, guns, explosions, flip a car, blow up a car, a quick cocktease shot of Angie's tits for the boys, and CUT! It's a wrap.
^^^^^^^^
LOL...soooo true! I've been noticing that more and more lately when I go to the movies. It's getting fucking boring as hell.

Well, that's refreshing. Now if we could only get the Ratings Board to act like moral, upstanding citizens we might actually be ok.
I just watched Murder-Set-Pieces (sorta) and I am FURIOUS that it didn't receive NC-17.

take a look at the cast list on imdb: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0422779/
any movie that has a Dildo Girl #1 and Hooker #3 to name but a few just can't be good.
Funny, in a sick sad kinda way.

Crazy shit, huh? And there are a LOT of women in that movie. After the first couple they don't even bother to tell you where they come from anymore - they're just always around. He never gets caught; no one even goes looking for him UGH. I found it really disturbing to think a 15 year old boy could be watching that if his older brother took him, kinda thing. Sorry - I just had a look at it last night and I'm still kinda raw.

That fucking movie didn't even have a story - it was just some guy raping and mutilating women the whole way through...and I *know* the only way they would have rated it up is if he was gay man hurting other men like that. Or if he was all about giving those women pleasure. Pfft.

But the real reason behind the ban on the Jolie poster is that the UK does everything under its power to appease their growing Muslim population.
Apparently, the mere sight of Angelina Jolie without a headscarf and bare to boot, holding a powerful object in her hands would cause a Muslim to ejaculate.
This is why the poster was banned!

I agree that we tend to be vulgar; and many of our films over the last decade have been "rubbish",and extremely stereotypical, which in turn is glorifying the wrong message to our kids, but I would have to say that your culture is not immune, nor that far behind.

'Thank you for educating me. So, who IS allowed to own a gun? Are you allowed to have one kept in your home for home/family protection?'
Lol, I might be slightly wrong not being an expert on police.. someone might come along and correct me completely.. I'm not really sure how you'd go about getting a gun, having never tried. I assume the only people who have them legally, e.g not bought off the black market on the streets, would have to prove they were only planning on clay pigeon shooting or pheasant hunting or whatever - not really sure though. But people definitely do not generally have them in their homes. The idea is that if nobody (or at least very few people) have guns then there is no need to have a gun to protect you from other people with guns...
They should ban the poster because it's trully lame. The only super skinny bad-ass chick I buy is Aeon Flux the animated character. But well, this is another Angelina Jolie air-head action movie. We expect too much from it.

-"I am not about to deal with unstable people" - HEART ANGELINA.
Please. This woman has been in so many movies about guns I'm surprised she hasn't joined the fucking NRA. Even so, she's so busy doing "good" for the world and "being a mother" (HAHAHA) she probably has never learned how to actually shoot one. Though, if she wants some practice, I think her right temple would be a great place to start.

'They need a warrant to carry guns. Just truncheons and pepper spray
A cop needs a warrant to carry a gun? What if the suspect has a gun? And what the hell is a truncheons?? Sorry to sound so ignorant.'
Truncheons are the stick things.
And remember we have really strict gun regulations in the UK so it's all supposedly very controlled, they're basically made as difficult to get hold of as possible. If they suspect someone has a gun then they call for armed reinforcements. In the US I get the impression that guns are seen as some kind of necessity for regular people (or maybe that's just a stereotype)? It's because we don't have so many guns on the streets that we have knifecrime problems instead.
Stupidity is way out of control in the UK and so is violence. If that poster went up in a bus shelter in Manchester, dumb cunts would hang out there - waiting for some kid to walk by on his way home from school.
