For the majority of the film industry’s existence, movie ratings were more of a vague suggestion rather than a strict guideline.

I have mixed feelings on fan films. I’d prefer to see indie filmmakers invest their resources in an original concept rather than someone else’s intellectual property, but I also understand the reality that content with an established fanbase guarantees more engagement.
