This is funny (you'll need to register to read it all). Apparently, parents can't figure out that Deuce Bigalow European Gigolo isn't for their kids, because the billboards that advertise it don't show the rating (the ads were made before the MPAA handed down their ruling). The Leaning Tower in the ad is "conveniently" placed too, let alone the title of the movie.
Movie billboards don't feature ratings

What Eiffel Tower? The one I saw had the Leaning Tower of Pisa (I think most Americans call that the Leaning Tower of Pizza or something...).
