I have to agree with Destrox on the King Arthur thing. It was a damn good movie, but what the fuck? In my mind, you can't have a realistic portrayal of combat without blood and gore. The movie went unrated until about a week before it opened, and I saw the pg-13 rating and I immediately knew it was for the money. Another thing I'm sick of is movies that are "based on a true story", but they are almost completely untrue, and that movie was so historically inaccurate, it's laughable. But that's a whole other topic.
I was also surprised when I saw a commercial for AvP the other day (on one of the rare days I happen to watch tv) and saw it slapped with the pg-13 rating. That's blasphemy to me. I enjoy Aliens and both Predator movies, and both franchises have always had an R rating. But now the bigwigs are so money hungry, they have to butcher a movie just to get the teenie bopper dollar. Pathetic.
