The MPAA-Approved Zack and Miri Poster
Posted by Veronica Santiago Categories: Weinstein Company, Comedy, Trailers, Upcoming Releases,
Now you really didn’t think the MPAA would make things easy for Kevin Smith, did ya?
Back in July, we told you the Clerks director was having difficulty securing an R-rating for his new film. Although Smith has since successfully appealed, he’s also been forced to rework his movie’s poster.
In Zack and Miri Make a Porno, Seth Rogen and Elizabeth Banks star as financially-strapped roomies. When the two find themselves in desperate straits, they decide to produce their own adult films.
The new promo recently created for the comedy can be seen above. The original ad rejected by the Motion Picture Association of America can be seen after the jump.

So what do you think? Did the poster go a bit too far…or were the overseers making a big deal out of nothing?
If the controversy has your interest piqued, you can check out the film’s green band trailer below. (A “red band” version can be found here.)
Zack and Miri Make a Porno hits theaters on October 31.
