Its obvious. They could show that movie, its been on TV before. And it could
have been edited for television easily.



I remember the movie well. I saw it in the theaters and I recall seeing
it on HBO, I believe. There's no reason to "edit" it for television, and
I believe ABC's deal with the studio forbids deletions.

What would you edit? The "cuss words"? They are integral to the movie.
The movie is violent, but no more so than other movies on television.

There's something else going on here.


Spielberg does not permit editing of his movies "for content." To get a
license from him to broadcast his films you must not do that.

The "F word" is used some 40ish times in the film.


Did you count them, Karl?
