Movies Mom Forbid Us From Seeing

Mom would scan movie posters from her car window "No, no, no..." until "ok". These were forbidden:
1 'Elf'? No swearing."
2 "'Is that.... No wait.. that's definitely a bad word. Never say that word."
3 'MIB? 'Missing in Action'? 'MIA pt B'? No. War movie."
4-15 "Horror movie."
16-21 "No. Makes fun of special needs" "Makes fun of fat people." "Makes fun of bald people."
22-23 "No. Bad parents."
24-30 "No. Bad children." "And you should always tell Mom."
31 "No. Suicide movie. They make movies like that to win Oscars. Nobody watches them."
32-54 "No. Adult stuff" When I got older: "Sex movie."
55 "No. Santa's not bad"
56 "Horror ... Sex movie? No."
57-61 "No. Dinosaur skeletons." "Jaws movie?" "King Kong movie?" "Bigfoot Horror movie"
and... No 'Mr. Magoo' "suicide movie" at a Birthday party. Instead me 7 & sister 9 saw 'The Full Monty' while party saw 'Mr. Magoo'. We told them ours was a dance movie.
