There's the agenda right there : someone in the MPAA is trying to up
the mindshare of violent archetypes in the collective unconscious
(Warrior, Masterless Man, Executioner, Dark Stalker, etc) by
increasing the proportion of violent imagery in popular movies and
removing the happy happy fun sex. Hyperviolence plus sexual
repression, not good.

Well, except for the hyperviolence part...

Archeologists unearthed an old english dictionary dating back to the
year 1236. It defined "victim" as "one who has encountered Chuck
Norris".
