Kids-in-Mind<\/a> is my new favorite site, boldly making no distinction between parents (looking for information about the latest piece of crap their kids are begging to see) and right-wing cultural warriors (looking for something else upon which to blame society). According to my non-scientific survey of the site contents, Scary Movie<\/a> is possibly the most offensive, child-warping movie ever made, out-raunching even Borat<\/a>. Honorable mention: a surprisingly strong showing by Pride & Prejudice<\/a> with a Sex\/Nudity score of 3 out of a possible 10. Excerpt: “A woman kisses a man’s hand and they hug. A man and a woman argue, and then they come close to kissing each other but do not.” (featuring guest reporting by Andrea)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
