Yes, Adam, we read your column about “We’re not just DISNEY any more!”
(Which raises the obvious question: So what is the “Magic” we’re “Inside”?–“The magic of entertainment”? Uh-uh.)
So, with Ricky gone, are -you- technically in charge now, or is there someone who can kick you out?
I’m glad it’s PG-13. I hope that means I can take my kids to see it. But, some PG-13 movies are actually out for us as well. Thrown in nudity. We’re out. Throw in the F word. We’re out. And depending on the amount of sexual dialogue, we could be out. The trailer for this one definitely seems heavy on the latter, so we are probably out on this one anyway. As bad as a PG-13 movie can be in these area’s, if it actually garners an R rating these days, you know it is crazy bad content-wise.
The thing is, you can imply an awful lot without having to use the heavy curse words, nudity, or heads being ripped off graphically. The characters can be just as evil and “stretched” without all of that content. I thought Heath Ledger’s Joker was perfectly played and stretched to the limit, in spite of the PG-13 rating in that movie.
My question to you, Adam, would be, what exactly do you need to see from these characters, that would give the movie an R rating, that you think would be missing in a PG-13 film?
Agreed. I never would have imagined Ricky, or this site, built on family entertainment, hoping that a movie would be rated R. How far this site has fallen from what it once was.
Comments for DC’s “Suicide Squad” earns itself a rather curious PG-13 rating

Well, that’s the problem we’re trying to fix, isn’t it?

Like the old joke, “Only 14-yo.’s hate PG-13 movies.”

I really miss Ricky writing the articles for Inside the Magic.
