Describe the Bug

Content Rating UK

MPAA NC-17 certificate should not map to UK R18 certificate. UK BBFC R18 is for DVDs & Blu-Rays to be sold in specially licensed adult shops!

Currently:

• NC-17 maps to R18.

It should be:

• NC-17 mapping to 18 which is the closest certificate for general release movies in cinemas.

This is the config that needs to be changed (showing what is currently in master branch below for defaults/overlays/content_rating_uk.yml):

  18:
    template:
      - name: standard
      - {name: cr_uk, rating: "gb/18, gb/18+, MA-17, TVMA, TV-MA, R, 16, 17, 18, R - 17+ (violence & profanity), no/18"}

  r18:
    template:
      - name: standard
      - {name: cr_uk, rating: "R18, gb/R18, gb/X, X, NC-17, R+ - Mild Nudity, Rx - Hentai"}

NB: there is no UK BBFC rating called 'X' currently. Historically there was (1951-1982) where it was a cinema rating initially for minimum age 16, which was raised to 18 in 1970. Assumption that gb/X in the YAML file refers to this rating, since this historic certificate rating; if so, then gb/X should map to 18 also.

Content Rating AU

defaults/overlays/content_rating_au.yml:

Currently gb/R18 maps to r.

gb/R18 should map to x. (also R18 if it's a GB certification.)

Content Rating US Movie

Needs consideration about gb/R18 etc. being potentially down-graded to nc-17. Reminder gb/R18 is adult film industry as described above, i.e. an 'XXX'

defaults/overlays/content_rating_us_movie.yml:

  nc-17:
    template:
      - name: standard
      - {name: cr_us, rating: "NC-17, gb/R18, gb/X, R18, X, Rx - Hentai"}
