I've blogged on this "cleanflicks" trend thing before. I'm not really symphathetic towards this whole trend of making money renting out altered versions of other people's films, but on the other hand, I understand wanting to see a film with some of the smut and violence toned down a bit. But that's a personal choice. What I don't understand is why Hollywood is so fond of tinkering their own DVD releases with "un-censored, un-cut and un-rated" extended versions, disrupting the flow of the final edit with tacked on footage, but won't experiment with their own "cleanflicks" edit. Why can't it work both ways?
