13 Shocking Movie Posters That Were Banned

7. The Zero Theorem

Who'd have thought that America hated butts?

That was basically the inference taken in the aftermath of this poster for Terry Gilliam's sci-fi The Zero Theorem being banned by the MPAA. It was literally just a case of the cheeky bare backside on show that they balked at.

Gilliam announced the news on his own Facebook page:

Zero Theorem off to a good start in the US thanks to the Motion Picture Association of America’s censors. They have banned our teaser poster because of a bare butt. Your thoughts, please.

Quite what's so offensive by a naked bum remains to be seen, but it was just too much for the people who counted.
