It\’s about the families who go to the movies – parents don\’t generally take their kids to see R rated fims. Being a PG-13 opens it up to families and schools and also to a wider audience turned off by the R rating (in the UK, it\’s packing out cinemas with pensioners).

I think it says more about a rating system that can\’t distinguish between the Expendables and this in terms of a rating.

Harvey\’s daughter and her friends were all clamoring to see The King\’s Speech? If that\’s true, it\’s probably because they\’re all the spawn of \’rich movie people in LA\’.

16-and-unders aren\’t talking or giving a fuck about this movie. I almost wish it would get a PG-13 rating just so he could see how wrong he is. But because it never will be, he\’ll go to his grave believing if he got his way, this movie would be earning double its take now.
