BBFC Institution Research:
1.) BBFC - otherwise known as "British Board of Film Censors" is responsible for the certification of films, to see if that they meet the agreed conducts for the audience, and to classify them e.g. PG 16, 12A etc.
2.) A film is refined by a series of processes, responsible by an examiner, whether it'd be specializing in games or movies. Normally an examiner would watch and analyze DVD's on their own, which is called to be "solo-viewing", however bigger institutions offer bigger attention, therefore cinema films require rating in teams of two. These examiners take into factors such as mainly: general context (plot, character etc), cinematography and language; sex; drugs etc.
3.) When BBFC undergoes classifying films, lots of issues will undoubtedly occur, and problems will conflict from criminal offences; law to discrimination and imitable behavior etc. What the next step will occur is to then look at things from the film's perspective, e.g. mildly sexual innuendos etc, but taking into an account for example that it was in a kid's 12A film would then obviously mean that it is absolutely inappropriate, therefore should have action taken.
4.) BBFC's reward to labeling The Dark Knight as a 12A certified film would probably have been controversial when just looking at the conventions of the movie alone, such as violence that wouldn't seem appropriate for 12+, at all. However taking into account the origin of the plot and characters- Batman who comes from DC - a comic company which would appeal to kids, hence the movie should do so too in some respect, but not all. So my honest opinion would be that BBFC did rightfully certify it as a 12A, knowing that it is a 21st century movie, and that our generation of kids are more accustomed to the violent nature of things, therefore it is a win-win for both the film's hits and for the wider range of audience it offers by doing this.
5.) The guidelines for a 15 certificate are an even and mild share of the following:

- strong violence
- frequent strong language
- sexual activity
- verbal references to sex
- sexual nudity
- discriminatory language or behavior
- drug taking
6.) Attack The Block - Classified by BBFC as to be 15 uncut, probably due to the fact that it is a sub/hybrid genre of comedy, mixed with horror AND science-fiction - a very unusual and bizarre genres put together, and maybe this appeals to teenagers of our generation, who have unconventional views and like a mix of things.
