Batman will not be too scary for kids

On the french movie website allocine Xavier Gens himself confirmed the fact !

Well, I wouldn't buy it from them. I'm sure Hitman will be rated R. Plus, I heard someone (not from here thought) & supposely he say the tv commerical that said it rated R.

Yes....but that was before the bosses saw the final product !

That in itself has become a nice little debate, while the MPAA doesn't update their certificates but once a week... regardless though no certificate is available for Hitman - what does that mean? So far the MPAA is saying the ads have been run without an official rating from them... Which is additionally very strange...

yeah Xavier is saying he was fired over the rating... but Fox is denying it... I would say we have a better chjange Xavier is telling the truth - but we may not have the whole story yet.

 

[CaptainClown]

ya the most reliable source is xavier, mainly because he is the actual director

But when I say we aren't getting the whole picture - we are getting just Xavier's side... Fox is just denying like they always do -- they aren't giving us another opinion to examine.

Xavier said it was too violent and he's been kicked out of editing process, and we saw the new editor officially confirmed - so we all know those "facts" - what we don't know for sure is that the issue is bringing it to a PG-13 rating...

Somehow these execs ignored the dailies and FX reels they were getting daily - thus bad producing - and didn't notice an issue until the final film.

What isn't 100% is that it's being made PG-13, when he says because it was too violent, Fox could have had a number of problems: Maybe the violence was extreme pushing NC-17 grounds and they didnt trust him to edit it back to R level, maybe the violence is in bad taste at times and hurts the film, maybe it is unneeded in areas, etc. There are a number explanations.

Why we think it's being made Pg-13, cause this new editor is the same dude who made LFoDH Pg-13 and even then FOX denied that was going on... but in the end it was clear that had occured... Does that automatically mean he is making this a "pg-13 family friendly bloodless pic"... NO! But it certainly creates circumstantional evidence to the case.

More will come out, but one thing the internet has done the last 5 years or so is generally give me accurate information and taught me never to listen to studios - which is unfair and very bias so I have to constantly be aware of my mentality and fight against it - but Fox told us they re-wrote X3, no it was the same script I'd read a year before production began, they told us AvP would be R - last minute it was not, they told us LFoDH would be R, about 3 months before release they went back on that... Halloween remake script was supposed to have change - it didn't, Fantastic Four Rise of Silver Surfer really didn't feature Galactus despite reassurance that he would appear from good old Avi Arad... The list is huge, especially for comic book fans, but it just says in MOST situations things are just as they appear...

Fox might only be denying this cause their version of Galactus is different than ours... and a giant cloud is okay... or maybe because he was fired for "poor behavior" or "creative differences" not their disagreement with violence...

That sounds good to me.
