I can't lie to you about the movies chances of being a PG...

Why don't you put Tim Rothman in charge...of deciding what rating they're going to go with for Prometheus?!!!

I didn´t know "The Matrix" was rated R in america. Why the hell? Was it "stressfull"? Maybe. Besides, I don´t understand the logic of letting the movie starts in any country before the USA. This is an invitation to piracy and surely a menace to the movie profitability in the major market. Let the film be an R and start the running in america!

I don't really understand why every movie has to premiere in the States first and then.. elsewhere. America isn't the center of the world, and you can't be aware of piracy even if it starts equally everywhere. And also.. the differences between the premieres are only ~8 days. I don't know what an idiot would watch this movie in a camrip quality. Not a fan, probably.

You know, guys, I don't know which rating is worse. You don't see them fscking each other over for a goddamn percentage.

Apparently Ridley Scott is opting for an R rating. I think he has enough pull in the movie industry to be able to get what he wants. http://m.youtube.com/watch?v=ztEj47RfNdE This was just posted

@MarcoBot1234, That's what I'm hoping. Or how about Fox do some market research and figure out in which theaters they might be able to profitably and concurrently screen PG-13 and R cuts of the film. If they did that, they'd for sure make double money from me, because I'd pay to see both versions. PG-13 first to prime the pump, and then R for the real goodies!

Or they could release both versions and cinemas could allow babies to go to their PG13 and make a late shows of R. Old story and very simple, they would get their money. But I make an assumption that this is never going to happen.

I'm sorry but if this film turns out to be PG-13 rated...Game over, man! Game over! ;-) Of course I WILL see it no matter what. But still...

Ridley Scott has a good enough track record as well as a long enough history in film making im sure he can convince the producers to release the full R rated version. This is not Hunger Games this is Prometheus, its an adult story with adult themes. Sometimes u just cant make it available for everyone. And sometimes its better they dont otherwise u risk diluting the story. I mentioned in earlier posts about the impact Alien 1979 had in the theaters when it first came out. Ppl left the theater due to their inability to cope with the violence and horror Ridley Scott directed. I want Prometheus to be as impacting upon its release (if not more) then its predecessor Alien. Only his 'true' untampered vision can truly and honestly have a long lasting impact that will remain years if not decades after its release. Sry for the rant.. you may go on with your lives now :)

I've read two other articles now, both that reference the same Empire interview, and both say the opposite. One says it confirms a PG-13, the other an R rating. Just goes to show we sometimes read what we want to read. And all the speculation on earth won't change the first Fox rep's mind... I'll go see it regardless.

cutting this thing to a PG rating would be like breathing high concentrations of methane gas...almost primordial

It's rated R, ok?! Can we end this debate now?! Im sorry...But, these men are here to make it "G"...so you won't be scared in the cinema. It won't make any difference.

You still don't understand what you're dealing with, do you? R Rating. Its structural perfection is matched only by its hostility.

We'd better get back, cause it'll be summer soon, and big budget movies mostly come out as PG-13... mostly

Oh Newt...I mean Biehn_Bandit....Newt...wait, no Carrie Henn or is it Biehn_Bandit? NO Newt...it's Newt.....you're so gosh darn adorable you are........

Doesn't mean we're engaged or anything

lol @ Biehn thats a good one

OK, you're ready to rock and roll. What's this? That's an R rating. I don't think you want to mess with that. You started this. Show me everything. I can handle myself. Yeah, I noticed [box office returns for The Matrix and T2]
