Okay, so why are you complaining to Wikipedia? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 221.121.187.152 (talk) 09:06, 26 January 2010 (UTC)[reply]

MTRCB doesn't classify ads. They're handled by the Ad Board. –HTD 07:24, 4 July 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Inaccurate edits[edit]

There have been a spate of edits changing the age information for the PG rating from "13" to "14". This is inconsistent with the Philippine government's own website and their Classification body (Ch.4, Section 1B) which state "Viewers below thirteen (13) years old must be accompanied by a parent or supervising adult when admitted into a “PG” film." I appreciate that classifications can change, but I find it unlikely in this case given that the source is the government's own site. Please do not change the age again without providing a source.

Rating icons?[edit]

When you normally go in to a movie theater in the Philippines, you can see a particular rating icon for a movie by the board. The rating icons look like rectangular boxes, which look like filmstrips, with the rating indicator and color (G (green), PG (blue), R-13 (yellow), R-16 (orange), and R-18 (red)). The MTRCB started showing them since early 2013. SuperArticleGuy (talk) 07:26, 20 May 2016 (UTC)[reply]

Criticism?[edit]

Assuming that there are sources to back it up, I think there should be a section on how the board met criticism for its practices and how they give ratings to media, like when they reluctantly gave a PG-13 to Passion of the Christ yet banned works that gained notoriety for graphic or violent content.
