The studio wanted DeadPool to be PG-13, PG-13 means more money in that adults & their children are paying to see the same movie.
Rated-R means only 18 & up are paying.
That's why the majority of movies aren't Rated-R.
Yea and it's bullshit, so many movies that should of been R rated were neutered by studios not caring about source material or the directors vision just to make a quick buck.
PG-13 used to mean something but now days it's pretty much the same or very similar too PG. What i mean by that is there's far fewer modern PG-13 movies that tread the very fine line of almost being R. Mosty due to a large number of overly sensitive "people" who can't differentiate between what's a joke and what's not or they don't care and still get "offended". I hope Deadpool rides that line raw until it's paper thin and about to break.
