There but for the grace of Gog,

the NYTimes could be next in line. It's a light hearted report that the movie industry is sucking gas. It's not really as if they didn't know how to make money. (Hint: stop insulting your audience!) Michael Medved has shown that G and PG rated films aimed at family audience, reliably make more money while PG-13, R and NC-17 rated films take in markedly less. It seems contrary to the idea that movie-making is a business. Steven Spielberg and George Lucas make the case all by themselves. It seems that Hollywood makes movies for the critics and for its own appetite for breaking down moral boundaries. One begins to think that the industry did better when it was censored.
