"The practice was so standard in one Bangladeshi theater that, when a movie was shown there without the sex scenes, the audience rioted and burned the theater down."
Let's hear it for preserving culture.

This might be a clever ploy by eroticavolutionaries to get their message of hardcore Asian action across to the public. ;-) Maybe somebody did read Tyler Cowen's book and decided to put it to good use.

"The government of Bangladesh prohibits any films made outside of Bangladesh from being shown in theaters in that country" this isn’t true man. Visit “Cineplex Bangladesh” at http://www.cineplexbd.com/<br> They have shown and are showing films made outside of BD. There are other theaters doing the same.
No doubt that most BD films sucks to the max. But there are some highly praised movies like Matir Moyna, Chaka. Matir Moyna won award at Cannes.

Well, if this information is correct, the NPR reporter got it wrong. I based my claim on his report.
Of course, NPR can be mistaken.

Pakistan allows Hollywood movies, but has banned Indian movies, also more out of protectonism. No prizes for guessing the state of the Pakistani industry.

Speaking about ratings...
As Internet user you, probably, have already tried to find ratings on some things which you consider to buy, use or get more information on. It may be services (hosting, design or movie rentals), public figures, consumer goods, articles or books, news, movies, beer, hotels, websites and much more.
You have, perhaps, seen thousands of fragmented websites, discussion forums, which force you to dig for the information even more.
With Ratingo you got one-stop shop, where you can find what people think (and why) about all you have been searching for before.
