Sep 3 2008This 'Zack and Miri Make a Porno' Poster is TOO HOT (boring) 4 AMERICA
Don't look for this one in the theaters, American Colonists. It was deemed too HOT for U.S. audiences, and was banned by the MPAA. I think it's because it implies Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks are giving each other oral sex while standing and fully clothed. What are your theories? Share them in the comments section.

I think it is just showing that both of them have giant untamed bushes.

I guess the poster proves Banks is not a natural blond, but that Rogen is.....

If they changed it to "Zack and Miri Make a Prono" it would be fine.

to me it says: Seth Rogen CAN give head, but Elizabth Banks bites your penis.

It's a "reveal" that they are both getting head from Starsky and Hutch, respectively, whose roles are reprised by Owen Wilson and Ben Stiller, disrespectively. Expect a crossover smash!

How does Seth Rogen keep getting roles?

I don't think the MPAA can ban anything. They can rate a movie NC-17 but they can't ban it, and they certainly can't ban a poster. Theaters can choose not to show the poster or film based on community standards. Yes, I've been to too many porn sites.

Well some one needs to tell the MPAA that they can't ban posters cause they do it quite often.
Just google it and see The Road to Guantanamo banned poster and Taxi to the Dark Side banned poster.
Basically they state that all movie posters have to be approved since children in movie theater lobbies can see them.

If it only showed Rogen getting head it wouldn't have been banned.
But insinuating a woman getting pleasure!? That's just witchcraft.

I think it looks like every other movie poster Seth Rogan has been on.
