it banned because the case was publicised, not because it might upset someone

if the Maddie case never existed, the film would still upset people

whats different? the cameras are focused on one family

rubbish it will upset people and publicised or not wont mean **** to nowt, film banned for now and they will have to wait, Mcanns 1 poxy film zero, that seems fair really, who needs this film anyroads also if the film had been scheduled for release and the Mcanns case hadnt happnd it may have offended people but it wouldnt been banned

want to talk bout (childs play 3) and why that was taken off the shelves after another case over a killing of a child

It was censored because it might upset the Mcanns
but it would upset other people

Why are the other people any different? because "Big Brother" didnt pick them to be publicised

I do think it was wrong. What about Films bout 9/11 and the distress it must cause people to watch those films.

What if the Maddie hadnt 'gone' and she is still here, what about the other people in the world who have lost there children. etc.

Its not fair how a film (which sounds good) is banned due to it having similar themes to what is goign on in life everyday, Just becuase the Mcanns case has been Media frolic etc. blah blah blah i dont know what im talkin abotu anymoree

I dont think its fair, just becuase of the mcanns case when this is happening all over the world.

i said it will be released later on, but not now the Mcanns case is so current on the news, Richard branson would approve im sure, hes taking a keen interest and paying summin towards their legal costs and he wouldnt think it is good taste to release a kidnapping film at this time and that is my feelings also

Its about choice, people dont have to go see the movie, why should things be restricted? the Mcanns wont worry about Freddie being kidnapped on corrie, they wont care about a child going missing in a film
its not really about that. a lot of people are very touched about this kidnapping of Madeline and the last thing they want is a film released bout kidnapping. it makes very good sense to delay its release and Im right behind that

the Coronation street storyline bout freddie was changed remember. they were goin to do a massive kidnapping but the writers changed it for the same reason. It is better to have a heart before worrying bout a poxy kidnapping film
But why should one group of people have to be annoyed because another group are upset about the kidnapping? It's not fair to those who want to see it. In an even better question, why do we even care, it's not our child who's gone missing.
(not our child gone missing)

where does that heartless opinion come from it comes from the depths of selfishness and i am not selfish i am contemplating the actual feelings of so many people out there who are very touched by what the Mcanns are going through. we are talking about some poxy kidnapping film which ai'nt that important i dont care about that film, i am feeling better about waiting a while and letting things pass by. the Mcann kidnapping will still be talked about but i only assume it will lessen in the papers and telly

if people get annoyed about the kidnapping film bein cancelled right now then thats tough tooti feelings for the Mcanns are more important
Again, my reason is:

Why should the neglegence of two obviously incompetent parents have any say in what media the public can access? The McCanns or anyone else who's upset DO NOT HAVE TO WATCH THE MOVIE!

I have only skip read this so I don't know if it has been mentioned.

Money.

The film has been delayed as rightly or wrongly the great British public have a connection with Maddy. Even though the film would have been scheduled for release yonks ago, some people would have thought they were cashing in by releasing it now. The bad press that could be caused could hit the box office takings. They obviously don't want that. The same happened with "Phone Booth" in the states. It was due to be released, but then they had the sniper shootings over there, so it got delayed.

It is all about profit and not any scene of right and wrong.

I don't agree with censorship. Children go missing all the time, and never get the kind of publicity that the Maddie case has received, because they don't come from 'respectable, middle class' families - who cares about the families of those children? The film does not breach any laws and therefore should not be banned.

This argument that the film should be banned because it upsets some people is a no sense argument. The film can only upset you if you watch it. Simple solution is to air the film and those who are upset by it use a bit of common sense and don't watch it.

The most efficient censor is oneself.......A pity more people are not prepared to censor themselves instead of wanting to censor others.....

thats not good enough you could say that bout loads of things but they still ban films for a while for real good reasons. i mentioned (childs play 3) earlier and nobody remembered that or said anythin. my dad told me what happened and it was over James Bulger - i think thats how you spell it? two boys took one boy and killed him in the same way that Chucky did in childs play 3 dvd and said that they saw that movie then did the same thing, thats why films need banning for a while and in light of the Mcann case it is the right thing to do at the right time to

the censor argument from you wont matter, film is tempory banned and that is fair under the circumstances right

That's not good enough. Removing peoples rights to see or hear something that is legal can NEVER be right. If you don't like some thing that is legal censor oneself and leave other people alone to make their own choices.

it is good enough and its touch tooti for those who dont like that. it is out of respect for the Mcanns and thats fair and right and i believe that. you just want to watch a poxy kidnapping film and thats it

cant you wait a bit?
