I remember reading elsewhere that writers tend to add in at least one sneaky cuss word so that a certain rating can be avoided. I can’t remember what one, though.
Why is the “G” rating dreaded and considered taboo anyway? I think “PG” is an abbreviation of “Parental Guide.” |

I think having Power Rangers be PG-13 was a smart idea. The movie would have done worst if it was PG. PG works for animated movie, not so much on big budget live action movies.

But notice how these things are. Inside Out and Finding Dory had mild slapstick at best, and their adult themes were merely about growing up, yet they somehow elicited a PG rating.
The G rating is being seen more and more as a negative thing to get, and nowadays studios aim for PG for their children's/family flicks, and PG-13 for their action flicks.

Was it expected to be anything less? PG13 is pretty much the standard for anything these days.

And our world's much sadder for it. It could have a R for all I care, I'll just wait until it drops on DVD/Blu-Ray like Ghostbusters. |

That's good news since it means it won't be too dark and gritty but it also means it won't be your average Saturday morning Power Rangers for kids.

The limitations that a PG rating would merit usually means a more creative approach since they can't be as visceral or violent, while R means they don't have to hold back. PG-13 is probably the black hole of ratings since it really means nothing anymore beyond "Another action film."

It could also end up being a sludge that had all creativity and life sucked out of it because it wants to be another "Avengers but not" film.

PG-13 is probably the black hole of ratings since it really means nothing anymore beyond "Another action film." But I don't really think a rating makes or breaks, or reflects anything other than the technical level of violence, etc. |
