Convert Movies From R to PG13 to PG On The Fly

uchi writes "Trilogy Studios announced the launch of its "Movie Mask" web site - www.moviemask.com , which will eventually lead up to the release of its "Movie Mask DVD Player" and "Movie Mask Director" software. The Director software will allow users to selectively add/edit a video adding graphics and special effects, which is nothing special in my opinion. The Movie Mask DVD Player, on the other hand, will allow its users to download a movie config file(for lack of a better term) which will have various portions of the movies to bleep/cut out depending on the rating which the person set. It can be changed on the fly while watching the video. This seems like a good idea - it would allow many people who don't wish to be subjected to violence/nudity/language a chance to watch any movie they want without waiting months for it to be released on network television, already PG-13ized."

    Does this mean we can make G - rated movies a little more exciting?

    Bare with me a second. Imagine a device that converts a G movie to a R movie. How nice would that be. It would be the ultimate porn product. Imagine watching a chick flick with R rating.. ah..nice! Remember..the porn industry is the industry that takes advantage of and adopts all the latest technologies.
