* The Rankin/Bass animated version of [[The Hobbit]] appears to have been bowlderized both in its oldschool TV broadcast days and in its migration to DVD. At one time, the scene where the Dwarves are captured by the Goblins ("Ho Ho my lad!") was shortened and all of the scenes with the Dwarves being violently chained were removed altogether. The scenes where Bilbo kills the Spiders in Mirkwood also removes the death screams of the Spiders. This purely audio edit seems to have survived to the DVD release. Curiously, this scene was neither gory, nor graphic to begin with; it was more purely suggestive due to the audible death screams, the removal of which more suggests that Bilbo simply chased them off instead of killing them. |

* ''[[Adventure Time]]'' has ''a lot'' cut out of the episodes in Australia (as do ''[[The Looney Tunes Show]]'', ''[[The Amazing World of Gumball]]'', and ''[[Regular Show]]'' <ref>which, given that show's content, would have been better off being banned rather than hacked to pieces for content</ref>). A list can be seen [http://adventuretime.wikia.com/wiki/Censorship_of_Adventure_Time_in_Australia here.] |
