    "F you, Superman, you can suck my Bat....!" "Oh yeah? Well, I'm going to F you up, you Bat mother.....!"



    Dear lord, no...

    ^Hear hear. I have no problem with an extended cut that is 'unrated" or whatever, but announcing an R-rating before the PG-13 version is even out is just shameless coat-tail riding, and any production with these iconic characters SHOULD be above that.

    The R-rated version will just be an alternate Blu-Ray edition with what basically amounts to "extra violence". Even the last Hobbit movie got an R-rating for a similar extended edition last year. I'm sure that the original PG-13 version will also be available on disc if the alternate isn't your cup of tea..

    WB needs to have some faith in the properties they adapt to the big screen. They own characters who's popularity has lasted for decades, yet continuously second guess the direction of the movies based on whatever current trend is hot, always trying to keep up with the times yet being one step behind. I wish they had stayed the course after the Green Lantern movie and continued to move ahead with their shared universe. A sequel using Marc Strong's Sinestro could have been amazing and corrected all of the complaints with the first movie, and we would have the DC film universe well underway by now. Instead, WB panics every time a movie under performs and throws out the baby with the bath water, starting over when a simple course correction could get things back on track. Meanwhile, Marvel has enough faith in their properties to make obscure characters such as Ant-Man and Guardians of the Galaxy into big hits, and DC struggles to get their flagship character, Superman, right.

    ^yep.

    It feels like Snyder was arguing for an R from the start as the DCU games hover on that line already. But WB needs as much access as possible so they went PG13. Now they think Deadpool is showing the scope of the possible audience with an R, but I don't think that's correct.

    If they want to go this route, they might as well adapt Kingdom Come as JLA sequels. Forget the future tense. Set it in the modern day and have the hero population explode leading to Houses of control.

    Guarantee we have Deadpool to thank for that. Goyer and Snyder like the R-rated, grim over-the-top anyway, and Deadpool's R-rated smash success since release has to have warmed the studio chiefs to the idea.

    So now we're going to get an R-rated version on the Blu-Ray. Call me old-fashioned, but that just seems kind of wrong. Way to follow and not lead, WB.

    What's next? The Frozen sequel goes for a hard R?

    That's great! A perfect example of how much disbelief we suspend while we watch these movies. Another reason why it's always good to inject a bit of lightheartedness in these films. If they get too dark and somber, they tend to lose a bit of the appeal that makes them so likable. I can only take so much grimacing with man dressed up as a bat.
