Perhaps the 'manufacturers' of the original movies ought to put out a G-rated VHS version for those who would not otherwise buy or rent the original movie. Seems to me this just one other way they could profit from a heretofore untapped market. In the DVD arena, they could even have a better option - create a DVD that has both unedited and edited versions on the same DVD. This should satisfy everyone - while the directors might grumble that their 'vision' is tainted on the edited version, they profit no matter which version the buyer views. And, as a further bonus, these editing companies would be put out of business.
