Interestingly they still say cider on Amazon Prime

Good news Netflix now has season 5 and Legend of everfree

Another famous example of red blood in an E-rated game is Kirby 3 & Kirby 64’s final boss. What’s even more confusing about it is, the Virtual Console versions still have no warning of that, and are still E-rated, but “Kirby’s Dream Collection” got a E-10 rating, and a warning descriptor of “animated blood.” (Confirming officially that red stuff from the final boss is indeed blood.)
 
@Pacific Glow  
Funny thing is, I didn’t even notice the blood in “EarthBound” for a long time.
 
They actually removed blood from “EarthBound Beginnings/Zero.” (Like from the Gangster Zombie, Dr. Distorto, and Shroudly enemies.) Making the T-rating even more baffling. I assume the ESRB just did it, because the other EB was rated T.
 
@Jarkes  
A friend of mine was actually jealous, because my version was the unedited one.
 
@Crowley  
You mean the GameCube “Zelda Collector’s Edition” collection version? I have that, but mine has the green blood. Only my N64 cartridge has the red in tact.
 
More ironic, the 3DS version is rated E-10, with a warning of “Animated blood,” so it was almost pointless to censor it.
 
Another thing censored was the Fire Temple’s music. The choir sounds were replaced with instrumental sounds.

@Jarkes  
You sure? I remember the Gamecube version had red blood, which is how I knew the change took place at all! That version and the 3ds were the only two I knew :P

@Jarkes  
Still, I find it overused.

@Crowley
 
No, they changed it LOOOOOONG before that. Like, while the game was still on the N64 (the earliest cartridges had the red blood, but then later cartridge releases had green blood).

@Crowley  
Ah, yes. Changing the blood’s color. I find that sorta overused.

@Pacific Glow  
Nah, that comes later; 3DS re-release of OoT had green blood instead of red.

@Wiimeiser  
Seems lax for the era where the ESRB was allegedly strict about violent video games.

@Beau Skunky  
@Pacific Glow  
Ocarina of Time and Banjo-Tooie had blood and weren’t T, so the blood=T policy obviously came into effect later…

@Beau Skunky  
“Tiger droppings” sounds like the generic preschool/kindergarten boy toilet humor. It also baffles me why it was rated T. The blood stains on the EarthBound bosses’ teeth might scar some kids below 13 for life, so it seemed impossible that it would get past the ESRB.

@Pacific Glow  
Similarly, “EarthBound” got away with alot too back then. (Including blood stains on bosses like the Krakken’s teeth.) In fact, so much they had to rerate it “T for Teen” on Virtual Console.
 
Though, I’m baffled why Mother 1 AKA “EarthBound Beginnings/Zero” got a T-rating on VC. There’s really nothing that “bad” in it, aside from the word “tiger droppings” being used in it. It is now officially the only “T” rated NES game.

@Beau Skunky  
The Itchy and Scratchy Show is in PG-13 episodes for sure. And I don’t know how the blood got past the strict censors of the SNES era and got a K-A/E rating. My parents were (mostly) never bothered by violent video games.

@Pacific Glow  
I wasn’t scared of them, I just avoided ’em ‘cause as a kid, because I didn’t understand the “warnings” at the beginning were basically a joke. (Somewhat, seeing as they probably could bother some kids. Though, the violence was no worse then “Itchy & Scratchy.”)
 
Surprisingly the old “Itchy & Scratchy” game for SNES was rated “Kid to Adult” (said rating is replaced by “E for Everyone” now) by the ESRB, despite having blood in it, and during a time when they were very strict about that due to the backlash in the media over violence in video games.

@Beau Skunky  
They never scared me. To me, they were always just harmless satire of scary movies.

@Pacific Glow  
Funny thing is, I used to actually take those seriously as a kid, fearing they actually were “scary,” and such. Then when I finally watched one, I realized they were just harmless horror movie parodies & such.  
Not to mention Kang & Kodos were amusing. (Though, there was a third alien voiced by James Earl Jones naked “Sarak” in the first one.)

@Beau Skunky  
Eeyup. Marge telling parents to take their kids to bed, etc.

@Pacific Glow  
Oh yeah, sometimes those got more violent, and earlier ones used to even have “warnings” at the beginning. (Though, even those were kinda satirical looking back.)

@Beau Skunky  
Not always TV-PG. Some episodes, like Treehouse of Horror, are TV-14.

@Soarinjack  

 
It’s the same in the USA, as well. Haven’t seen alcohol in anything less than PG since One Beer.
 
And kids can’t know about Jimmy Savile either.

@Soarinjack  
>not wanting a space program
 
Triggered :p

Thanks a lot, UK. Can’t have children know about alcohol, but killing Sombra is a-okay.
 
 
@TexasUberAlles  
First steps first. Although they voted out of the EU more than 6 months ago, they still haven’t activated the exit process. Apparently the new government don’t want to rush things. Probably a case of buyers remorse, but let’s have them leave first, because I don’t want to get launched into space with them.

@Wiimeiser  

This? Sounds like a reference to a particular event :p

okay brexit was a good first step now how do we get the uk launched into space to complete the process

@Cirrus Light  
No one scene in particular, just in general.
