Transformers 12A Rating

Um, not quite. This country rating standards are more relaxed on the violence than the US - it's on language that we are more strict. We're Britiish, we don't like swearing don'tchaknow.

Well, try hitting your hand a few times with a hammer, and then see if we dont like swearing

I think the film is actualy aimedmore at people my age than the kids....
lets face it, every male between the ages of probably 20 - 30 years of age knows about the Transformers.. and if they have kids, will be dragging them to the cinema if they like Transformers or not...
I will be one of those late 20 year olds going to watch the film without dragging a kid along... I have no shame!

Dharling, I think you'll find one does not swear upon striking one's own hand, in a repeated fashion, with a hammer - one would simply, and politely, remark on the manner of human procreation in a rather loud voice.



Or alternatively, in the real world (where my first job from school was in a builder's yard, which did 'wonders' for my vocab-education), the air would turn blue with my ravings.

hehehe.. I now sadly no longer grace building sites, and am office bound until Im no longer a junior engineer..... then I get to go to site in a nice suit and tell people what to do...
but theres just about as much swearing in the office as on site anyway.. especialy when I had to explain to my boss that whoever did the drawings for a tender forgot to put on 3/4 of the stuff needed... and mostly the expensive stuff...

Anyway, Im Welsh, I can always revert to swearing in another language!
