I wouldn't watch any movies this way, but I don't really care if other people want to. There are several companies that provide this service (I believe at least two of the big ones were started by Mormons in response to the desires of their fellows).
They've run into some lawsuits from the movie studios but so far have prevailed since it is not unlawful to modify personal copies of films (essentially they sell you the unaltered film and then alter it for you by agreement).
I want to see the artist's intention when watching movies so I don't understand how watching a heavily edited (particularly when the edits are not by the artists) version could be fulfilling but if others are fulfilled by it, who am I to argue with them.
