FLASH: JENNA JAMESON SET TO STAR IN SNOW WHITE REMAKE; WELL ENDOWED DWARVES (AREN'T THEY ALL?) SOUGHT FOR SUPPORTING ROLES

Kids' films are getting raunchier, experts say

A shotgun-wielding hunter mercilessly pursues his target. Angry space aliens vaporize a defenseless town. A bloodthirsty shark preys on the weak and tiny.

These movie scenes aren't from the latest action thrillers -- they're from G-rated animated films like Disney's new "Chicken Little."

As pop culture mimics today's permissive social values, violence and veiled sexual references have crept into the seemingly innocent cartoon landscape, giving parents new reason to do research beyond the ratings.

It's not that the Motion Picture Association of America's ratings board has become more permissive, said MPAA president Dan Glickman: "It's bound to be a reflection of society."
