My favorite was during the filming of Bulletproof Monk they decided to go from an R rating to a PG/PG13 because the studio thought it was more marketable to teens that way. They had this issue however, one of the characters was named Mr. Fucktastic and featured a giant tattoo of his name on his chest. Their solution was to rename him to Mr Funktastic and then superglue a giant bling necklace to his chest in order to hide it. This also lead to them cutting a scene they had already filmed because of said tattoo that makes the end of the movie much more coherent and enjoyable.

Another oldie but goodie was the clear channel censored version of What It's Like by Everlast, so many things get censored the song ends up sounding much worse than the actual one because of all the random words that didn't really need to be bleeped.

GottaPayDaTrollToll posted:I wonder if there are any examples of marketing people putting MPAA rating descriptions front and center on movie posters. I know that if I made a movie that the MPAA described as containing "an abundance of outrageous gore," I'd want everyone to know. "Non-stop Ninja action" seems more like an endorsement than anything.
