filmlover Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Beat me to the punch by two minutes. This is rated PG-13 while the other collaborations between McCarthy and Falcone (Tammy and The Boss) were rated R. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jonwo Posted June 13, 2017 Share Posted June 13, 2017 Guessing there's little to no swearing. Weird it's been rated already. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guess they want to take advantage of Mother's Day weekend but Snatched already claimed this year. I feel like we're moving back towards PG-13 comedies with the recent soft performers and duds the R-rated comedy genre has produced. The only R-rated comedies in the last 18 months (not counting Deadpool or Sausage Party) to make $70M+ are Sisters and Bad Moms. Doesn't seem to be worth chasing the next Hangover or Bridesmaids anymore, I feel as if movies like Snatched or The House definitely would've been PG-13s about 10-12 years ago. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm surprised they decided to make The House R rated, drop the swearing and it could have easily been a PG-13 rated film. I think R rated comedy can work, even though it wasn't a domestic success, Bridget Jones's Baby did $211m WW on a $35m budget, they just need to be funny. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The problem with most of the duds in recent times is that they hardly seem to justify their R ratings other than for F-bombs and nudity (which are the laziest sources for comedy you could turn to). The comedy genre is in dire need of a shakeup for sure. Edited June 14, 2017 by filmlover 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WrathOfHan Posted June 14, 2017 Share Posted June 14, 2017 This will probably suck because of how early it's being rated. Don't @ me when I turn out to be right. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SLAM! Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 (edited) Shannon Purser (Barb from Stranger Things) plays a very important role for the film. If the marketing team chooses to include the actress in the commercials (which they might have to because the role looks like it is really big), the film will be able to reach an acceptable gross just by the initial internet reaction to 'Barb''s casting. I think the Stranger Things fandom, as well as the number of casual Netflix owners and people who follow pop culture who will undoubtedly recognize her, should not be underestimated.

I don't think it should be overestimated either. I think it's a real stretch to say Barb's actress is a draw. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DAJK Posted February 2, 2018 Share Posted February 2, 2018 Couldn't possibly be less excited for this. The trailer had better blow me away. Only people who will see this are parents who are already dumb enough to let their kids watch Sherlock Gnomes... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
