OFLC Ratings

Here are the Australian OFLC rating tags that are played prior to theatrical trailers (for movies that have already been classified).

This video contains classification tags for the G, PG, M, MA15+ and R18+ ratings in their entirety. These classification tags have been made by the Australian OFLC.

An X18+ rating clip is also available.

the +15 is unnecessary there should be a rating for: all ages, all ages but with parent, 13 year olds with parent, 17 year olds with parent, and 18 or older only. Having any other ratings inbetween, above, or below that is just unnecessary.

@Toreno88 : Having 17+ and 18+ ratings is unnecessary IMO given that there is only a one year gap in between them. Honestly, just how greatly is one expected to mature between the ages of 17 and 18? I feel that the Australian classification system (for the most part) is fair, though I strongly object to their lack of adult classifications for video games, and some of their classification decisions over the years have been mind-bogglingly absurd.

Basic breakdown of the Australian ratings...

Advisory classifications:

G - Suitable for all ages

PG - Parental guidance recommended (Previously known as "G8+" for video games)

M - Recommended for mature audiences (suitable for over 15s)

Legally restricted classifications:

MA15+ - Not suitable for under 15s; under 15s MUST be accompanied by a parent or adult guardian

R18+ and X18+ - Restricted to over 18s (the latter applies to sexually explicit content)

RC - Refused classification (banned)

The oflc is a joke a bad joke they need to bring in a third party rating system such as pegi in britain as a helper outerererererer for the bbfc But theres gunna be a r 18 for vidoe games soo so hopefully no more censorship

[sillygostly]

@almastar21 : People seem to be forgetting that there will still be censorship even if an R18+ rating is legislated for video games. Anything that falls within the RC category (read the guidelines) could also be banned.

R18 does not exist in Australia at least from what i heard

[sillygostly]

Yes it does. It simply doesn't exist for video games.

When I see this, I think the ratings look like candies. The green color looks like eucalyptus, the yellow looks like lemon, the blue looks like mint, the red looks like strawberries, the purple looks like forest fruits and the black looks like liquorice

0:43 It looks like a card :I

[Toreno88]

@sillygostly Its not whether you have matured enough it would just be the difference of if you are allowed to see it if you were accompanied by an adult or if you must be over a certain age. The +17 rating would if you were under the age of 17 you would still be allowed to watch it but if you came with a parent, but the +18 rating would be you must be over the age of 18 to see this even if you come with an adult. Movies in the +18 category would be: porn, extremely graphic violence, etc.

the oflc rating labels look ugly on dvd and game cases.
