Easy... United 93 has no Sylvester Stallone in it, all unknown actors... so if ban/not ban makes no difference. If they ban Rambo, they lost revenue...

Daredevil was banned because of the title has the word "DEVIL"...Â
Cause if ppl saw a movie with the word "devil", we will all go and become satan worshippers...
This is a serious case of inconsistency... if the word
"DEVIL" is sacrilegious and the sole reason a movie being banned (unless a name change like Super Sapiens...), then why do
THE DEVIL WEARS PRADA &
BEFORE THE DEVIL KNOWS YOU'RE DEAD being shown at our local theatres... even without a name change??? ...and don't tell me it's because both feature Oscar winners and would be a mistake to ban!!!??!

What full of sh#@!
