I see...it makes sense, and I must agree it does keep it pretty, and more organized. Its easy to read everything in the forum especially for people like me who just skim through the forums each day instead of posting. hehe!


But ya i really do believe Gemma isn't dead, im sure we will see her again. But when? I wish there was more information....we need a breakthrough of some sort.

Simba's dad died in the Lion King and all the little kiddies got to see his body. And that movie was still G/PG. So you can still keep a show PG/PG-13 and have people die, and you can see their bodies too--it just can't be gory, i.e. seeing Gemma getting literally shot, or Bree's dad having his head blown out.

Animation is different. How realistic an image looks can affect the rating. In Kill Bill, they make the bloodiest scenes in Black&White, because if they had been in color, they would have gotten like an XXXXXXX rating. lol. Being that the Lion King was an animated film, it did not affect the rating like seeing a dead human on film (even knowing it was just acting).

Personally, I wish the rating wasn't so restrictive. I kind of like the spooky overtones of the show, and it would be fun if they could come out more. However, I'm also kind of grateful because I wouldn't like it if the show became a sucky modern horror movie (i.e. Saw III). They can find ways of confirming someone's death without seeing the dead body, but the viewers have a hard time accepting what they are told by the characters because they have not always been truthful or direct. The fact that we can't trust what anyone says except Daniel kind of makes it difficult to feel sure of anything.

Okay that whole post made NO sense and I'm sorry.

Can I just say...I couldn't help but laugh at the fact that 2 people actually voted for her to be in London and working on her degree?

I have a weird feeling she was kidnapped, not shot at because I think if she was, would the ground be so nice and clean after she "disappeared"?

And Tachyon and brother would want to have her killed because remember...they've turned on OpAphid.

No, I meant that people can certainly die in live-action PG movies as lont as it isn't shown on-camera. If you noticed, Bree's dad's death was completely off-camera, as is Gemma's (given that she's really dead...)

Also, LG15 is an independent YouTube/Revver-based web-production, not a movie. Technically, it's not under any sort of ratings restrictions whatsoever. If anything, it's closer to a TV show, which is under a different (and optional!) ratings scale than the movies. When the Creators say they want to keep it PG, I don't think they meant the exact MPAA ratings stipulations, but something to the extent that young teens can be able to view it. If they wanted they could have a fake on-camera decapitation and implied sex between Bree and Daniel and Jonas (not real sex cause that's against YouTube policy I think), and they really would not get in any sort of trouble.

Okay I'm sorry, I understand what you mean now. You're right about that. :oops:

And while you are correct that there is no set rating system for this kind of thing, I have no doubt that there may be one in the future. Using certain images on the videos would call attention to the problem, and they could still very well get in trouble. If Daniel is 18 and Bree is 17, they should not imply anything beyond a kiss. They probably could face some legal issues that would be up for debate.
