    They would have my support if they supported tools to add sex or violence though.

    Every time I read something about this STUPID argument, it makes me thing of the movie Clockwork Orange.

    YOU WILL WATCH IT! Here are the toothpicks.

  3. Why not just watch what's already there? by User+956 · · Score: 5, Funny

    They would have my support if they supported tools to add sex or violence though.

    Or, given that the technology exists to cut out the sex and violence, why not make a drive that skips everything _except_ the sex and violence?

    It would certainly make Van Damme's movies watchable.
