All those in favour of an R rated Prometheus movie - Dark, unnerving, harrowing and perverse.

I want a petition to stop all the R vs PG discussions . Really bored about that .

Hey if the movies right who cares what rating it gets.....i just want to know the truth lol.

It deserves R rating for the c-section theme alone and there might be more to come.

How about we all cross our fingers and toes and just hope for a GREAT STORY, with INCREDIBLE CINEMATOGRAPHY, and some truly MIND BENDING A-HAH MOMENTS and not give a rats arszz if Sly Stallone or Jason Statham is in this?

I just want strictly adult.com - DO NOT want 10 year old kids in the cinema whilst I submerse myself into this dark future shock....FUCK PG 13

FrantzMarch 30, 2012
ITs not an R that make a movie strictly adult .... Rob Zombie , hostel and the various torture porn are surely not for adults but products for horny teens ( or middle age never grown horny teens ) ...are usually the 17 years old ( not everyone of course )that want to see sex , perversion and rape , not surely the "adults" .

I don't think this movie is going to be for the "It's only good if it has sex,blood & guts" crowd.  As long as it's a good movie I could give a shit whether it's got an R rating or not.

Theres that C-Section thing again. Is a C-Section confirmed in the movie?
I do know that Shaw attacks 2 crew members that are wearing bio hazard suits. She wakes up on a table and clobbers one of them with a blunt object presumably before they force her into the glass pod with the grapple.
But i dont know there is deffinatley a C-Section that everyone keeps talking about.
Rather than taking the creature out of her.....perhaps they are trying to insert it into her.
Perhaps this....perhaps that.....we`ll know for sure in 70 days wont we lol.
The only thing that upsets me is that Sir Ridley has already seen this movie before me lol
WhyDontTheyFreezeHimMarch 30, 2012
Im definitely in. The guys who say that rated R wouldnt improve the movie or whatever dont know what theyre talking about to be honest.

I agree that rating is not so important, so let's sign a petition making Fox re-film the movie if it ends up as crappy as Cowboys vs Aliens (one of the Lindelof's masterpieces)

If it's good, it's good, but I still prefer an R rating.  Let me know when it's time to sign the petition.  I mean it.

I could care less if it is R or PG-13.  I'm not desensitized to the point where more and more gore is needed to deem a film worth watching.  The characters, cool/scary concepts, and tension is what makes an Alien movie great.  

The High PriestMarch 30, 2012
cej - i disagree - R isnt just about blood and gore. It can be implied content that is so intense and disturbing that you couldnt possibly engage such information with a brain as young as 13. 
Get past the PG 13 can still be scary and tense. Its diet horror. I want an adult film, and Im NOT talking about a Hostel blood fest.

The High PriestMarch 30, 2012
Hard violence, disturbing dark imagery, strong scenes of a sexual nature, generaly content that should most certainly NOT be consumed by a minor.
Lord EnnioMarch 30, 2012
If we think back to Alien, the violence in there(except for the chestburster scene) was quite tolerable. What really made Alien an R-rated film was the language. Also, if Prometheus was really violent, there would have been talk of an NC-17 rating(i.e. Robocop). So, I'm of the belief that Prometheus would be rated R, mostly due to the language, combined with violence and as cej mentioned, "cool/scary concepts, the characters and tension." But, in the end, regardless of whatever rating the MPAA gives this film, I'm going to watch it just because it's another great creation by Ridley Scott.
ShinobiX9XMarch 30, 2012
doesn't an R rating seem to make some movies more attractive then?
i mean, i mean, not in the case of prometheus, but a bad movie, give it a "adult " rating, and kids will even try harder to watch it, i would.
