(Character) brings an NC-17 rated film to school videos

Brings an NC-17 film (movie) to school videos (also known as "brings an AO-rated game to school" videos), are a genre of grounding videos, usually made with GoAnimate. In the video(s), the plot involves a character bringing a movie (or game) that wouldn't be appropriate for the school, along with several others who may receive rewards or punishments depending on the age rating(s) of the movies or games. For this page, movies will be used as an example for the reasons.

Why They're Trashy

 * 1) These videos are way too similar to the infamous dead meat/behavior card day videos. How do we know this? When a student mentions the movie that they brought, instead of watching that movie later (in other words, what a movie day is supposed to be), the teacher sends that student to the principal's office to get a reward or a punishment, defeating the point of the movie day in the first place. You can literally replace the movies with randomly colored cards, and it woud make little to no difference between the video plots.
 * 2) *90%+ of all these videos suffer from plagiarism, some instances of which are covered up by "inspiration", when that's obviously not true. More information in points 4 and 10.
 * 3) *Some of these videos pad themselves out by throwing in instances of characters going "oh oh oh oh oh oh oh" or "waaaaaaaaaaaaaaa", using all available characters to pad them out even further. Or, they can copy this video's mistake where the second half of it takes place in the principal's office instead of jumping directly to the last student, then grounding him/her.
 * 4) Adding onto #1, almost all of these videos ban PG-13 movies even if all the students are over 13, canonically or not. It makes you wonder if PG movies will be banned next due to this unnecessary restriction (and then G, afterwards).
 * 5) *To add insult to injury, when the last age rating for the movie is mentioned, the teacher will add unnecessary emphasis to every word in a sentence, and will usually, speak, like, this, which is rather annoying (not to mention that it delays the inevitable, and it's even more irritating when you see that in the subtitles or speech boxes).
 * 6) The thumbnails for some of these videos can be downright lazy or spoil the movie that they'll bring. If you see any video that has thumbnails like the examples down below, then you already know exactly how the video will play out, regardless if you've watched it before or not, due to their simplicity.
 * 7) *If the video uses a custom thumbnail, it will ALWAYS have the movie visible, regardless. Wouldn't it make more sense to add mystery and creativity to your thumbnail instead of throwing the movie out there to spoil the video and ruin all tension?
 * 8) As stated in #1, 90%+ of these videos are (mostly) plagiarised from each other. Only differences being the movies (with a few exceptions), the characters, and the backdrops. That's it. Here are some frequently used clichés in these videos:
 * 9) *The video copying Weatherstar's method of making GoAnimate videos. You'll know this if it uses prop characters and the speech boxes say something stupid like "Ha x 45" or "Wa x 60".
 * 10) *The character in the title saying "I'm gonna do this! Since today is movie day..." as soon as the video starts, even if "gonna" is changed to "going to".
 * 11) *The teacher mentions that movies can be played on DVD, VHS, or Blu-Ray, and/or if they have all three players (even if they actually don't).
 * 12) *The teacher repeatedly saying "that movie is rated (insert rating here)".
 * 13) *The teacher saying "you have been warned" with a PG-13 movie instead of "you have a warning". This will happen if the teacher says "really", followed by the name of the movie immediately after.
 * 14) *If the very next movie after the PG-13 one abuses the volume setting and cheer actions with no volume warning at all. In other words, being very immature for something that isn't going to be watched at all.
 * 15) *If the NC-17+ movie shows a volume warning, when that could've been shown with the other movie.
 * 16) *If any cliché choice (especially Sausage Party and South Park) gets picked as one of the movies. They're listed in the next point.
 * 17) *If the character in the title is sent to a random country after being grounded.
 * 18) *If the creator fails to realize that The Simpsons Movie is actually rated PG if they're from the UK. In the US, it's rated PG-13 for some reason.
 * 19) Following #4, cliché choices for movies are used due to the lack of research or care being put into these videos. Examples include:
 * 20) *The Simpsons Movie (US only)
 * 21) *Showgirls
 * 22) *Deadpool
 * 23) *Cars (any of the Disney movies)
 * 24) *Despicable Me (any movie)
 * 25) *Toy Story (any of them)
 * 26) *South Park (any movie, especially if it's Bigger, Longer, and Uncut)
 * 27) *Sonic the Hedgehog (either movie)
 * 28) *The SpongeBob SquarePants Movie (any of them)
 * 29) Despite the videos being mostly for American audiences, people from other countries, such as the UK, will not be able to understand what N, R, or NC-17 movies are (or heck, even X rated movies), unless they do some research.
 * 30) Overrated characters such as Mr. Dallas or Principal Eric can be used as the teacher, especially if the video is copied from Weatherstar. Missed opportunity to use an original character in place of them, every time. The thumbnail of this page shows Mr. Dallas, who is an example of an overrated character.
 * 31) Sometimes, the videos can be so lazy that we don't even see the movies at all. No box art, no props for them, nothing. Just the names.
 * 32) *Even if we do see the movies, the teacher will repeatedly say "that movie is rated [anything]" even if we can clearly see that.
 * 33) *Half of these videos are made with Plotagon, which is not compatible with a GoAnimate plot involving a lot of objects!
 * 34) These videos have several plot holes:
 * 35) *What do the characters expect would happen when they bring an NC-17 movie to school, especially when they were just told that they shouldn't? Plus, they don't even watch the movies afterwards due to this being "inspired" from dead meat videos, so why does it matter?
 * 36) *Why is the teacher always able to tell the ratings of the movies that students bring out, even if they aren't able to see said movie at all?
 * 37) *Why is it a warning if you bring a PG-13 movie even though it is still technically PG? That's like in secondary school in the UK, where you can't bring movies that are rated 12 and up, even though most kids would be around 15 - 16 at the youngest. Oh wait... that actually exists.
 * 38) *Why isn't anyone able to watch their movies in school? The point of a movie day is to watch a movie, not recycle an overused, 11+ year old plot, thinking that no-one would notice! Plus, they shouldn't even get in trouble for bringing a movie for adults and above, because the movie does not get played (exceptions made if the movie is illegal/banned).
 * 39) **Granted, the movie likely doesn't get played because of copyright on YouTube, but a time card could've been used to skip the movie once it starts instead of recycling dead meat video plots.
 * 40) *What if the movies brought have no confirmed age rating at the time of the video's publication?
 * 41) *Wouldn't the students miss out on education over bringing a movie that may or may not be the target audience of the GoAnimate community?
 * 42) *Why are VHS tapes allowed when technology of this generation doesn't really use them anymore? An outdated form of technology would be almost impossible to use in 2023 onwards.
 * 43) **And what's the use of saying that the school has all three players when none of them get used?


 * 1) Due to Weatherstar4000video being known for starting and/or popularizing this plot, many videos result in the character being unnecessarily sent to a random foreign country to not only pad out the video, but to possibly make the next one on the creator's channel them escaping from that country only to get grounded again. It's a punishment so unnecessary that this is a reason why these videos are trashy all by itself - no exceptions.
 * 2) *And, to no surprise, a lot of them will say "inspired by Weatherstar or Catboy" when they're clearly plagiarised with no effort put into them at all. It's unknown if they actually request these videos to exist or not.
 * 3) Sometimes, good characters are featured in the title, only for them to get ungrounded instead of receiving any other reward.
 * 4) Missed opportunity: The characters could've brought in movies from their own media instead of other, unrelated sources. For example, Tails, who's used multiple times in these videos, could've brought the Sonic movies (despite being cliché choices) instead of literally anything else, such as Thomas the Tank Engine.
 * 5) The "brings an AO-rated game to school" videos are 100% identical to the "brings NC-17 movie" videos; only difference is the games. Yep. You can replace the instances of "movie" with "game" and you'd see barely any differences, if at all.
 * 6) *Sometimes, X-rated movies can be included, but the video may still be called "brings an NC-17 movie", even though the former is worse than the latter.
 * 7) Some of these videos can be made out of users and other real life people (including obvious trolls) in an attempt to cyberbully them, and they will use excuses for their behavior. Examples are present down below.
 * 8) Some of the punishments for bringing a movie can be getting "expelled forever"... even though expulsions are supposed to be permanent hence why there's no need to say "forever" here. Sometimes, they say "suspended forever", which is the same effect as being expelled.

Redeeming Qualities

 * 1) Despite this plot's horrible execution and its several plot holes, it does teach people that they shouldn't watch movies that aren't age-appropriate. However, PG-13 movies should NOT be restricted just because another video does it.
 * 2) There may be some videos that won't send students to the principal's office to get a reward that they don't deserve (because all they did was bring a movie and that's it).
