Rated U?

I don't think this should have been rated Universal. The drunk Santa at one point says the word 'numbnuts'. He also explains later how he was given 'a royal fist'. He also refers to Kris as a 'sorry old cripple'. Surely this would warrant at least a PG rating, if not a 12 / 15.

I'm sure that many of you out there agree with this.

I didn't notice the rating when it was shown on TV yesterday. It should be PG.

TV versions are usually edited.

Numbnuts isn't even a swear word, it's what I'd call playground swearing. Equivalent to terms such as doofus, clown, pleb, twit etc. Rude words for sure, but the film is innocent enough. E.T. was a U, that's what I'd call a strong PG by todays standards.

I like that boulder. That is a nice boulder.
