Don't you mean HK?
But yeah I can see why consistency would be an issue. Isn't the 12 rating in the UK fairly recent too?

Hello! I had some information about the US releases initially but stripped them from the database because they were inconsistent. Would it be useful to add them (with a cute logo)? For USA => G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17, M, X, unrated For UK => U, PG, 12, 15, 18, R18 For HK => I, IIa, IIb, III France used to have 13 and 18, now it seems to be 10, 12, 16, 18. Don't know about Canada, other European countries, Australia... Julien |

Don't forget the Japanese ratings board: https://www.eirin.jp/english/008.html I think adding the ratings would be a nice addition. Any data is good data! |

Given the age of Laserdisc and perhaps some titles not since reclassified, you could also add retired BBFC classifications too? A, AA, X etc? |

Better just stick to the ratings actually provided on the covers of the disc, if any exist. There's no need to complicate things by throwing archaic ratings into the mix; Both X and M ratings in the US had been long out of use before LD even rolled out. |

I'll just add them as I see them on covers, if one is missing after the first pass, just send me an update! Also considering splitting main studio and publisher, it's confusing a lot of people! Julien |

Question, "The Lion King II: Simba's Pride" was a direct-to-video movie, and since it was released on LD only in Japan, should I list the rating as "(USA) Not rated"? It's a family-friendly direct-to-video movie, I mean. |

It's a family-friendly direct-to-video movie, I mean. The rating would apply to the country of release, in that case, it's better to leave it empty => Rating "None". Julien |

For Germany we should use the old logos. Not a single LaserDisc has the new ones. http://www.stefano-picco.de/gfx/grafik- ... -logos.jpg The rating is 0 - 6 - 12 16 - 18 - 18 The last one is if the FSK did not approve the movie at all. SPIO/JK also often has the addition "strafrechtlich unbedenklich". A rough translation would be "no objections under criminal law" |
