I think many are too obsessed with
The r rating. Alien was r rated on
the usa back then. Now i have
All 4 movies in the directos cuts
And they are all rated fsk16 in germany only.
r rated is fsk18 here.
Event horizon was also fsk16 only
Despite of several gross and disturbing
Images.
so just chill!

i am quoting myself here from earlier in this thread cause i really really like defending my position on this one!!!
to me it is NOT a no brainer because of this...
If i am one of FOX's favorite demographic, that is a 13-19 year old teen angst filled sci-fi nerdy type male...
Am I more drawn and attracted to a film that is 14 and over or one that is PG13 ???
Think about it...
Cause a PG13 rating does in no way ensure more people are going to the theater to see your movie...but a 14+ rating almost always does!!!

ive been looking around the net on various blogs other than this one and i can tell you theres a lot of pissed people all over the age of 18 infact most in their late twenty's and thirty's and above who are not happy about the pg 13 news and i gotta say i'm in total agreement. I trust ridley and i feel of course it will be a good film but as i said i was sold on a thouroughly convincing statement that mentioned he wanted to make a really nasty film and there will be very perverse things happening in prometheus... now unlike ushbuck im not expecting an interglactic orgy but what i am expecting is profound adult serious events that cross the taste threshold of a pg 13 film, i mean Hannibal had shock value but im not talking about gore im talking about psychological terror and some extreme behaviour that just cant be shown in that pg13 rating
i pray i'm proved wrong but i hope its braver than what i fear it now looks to be and if not well i just hope that there is a better cut on dvd cos ill wait for that and not bother at all with the theatrical release its no skin of my nose i haven't been to the cinema for years .
i mean most of the original fans from 79 are ageing hippy sc fi nuts like myself who want a bit more than a run of the mill space film we want that spirit of filmmaking that was around back in those days the kind of films that broke the mold and broke new ground i dont want jurassic park in space.
