Apparently they are "exploring" it.

I "get" that it would reach a wider audience. But, my gut says "say it ain't so."

I think you can do a lot within PG13. I'm fine with it.

According to Adam Ruins Everything, episode Adam Ruins Hollywood...

"PG-13 movies have actually been found to contain more gun violence than R rated movies"
Kang, Cecilia. "The Violent 'Taken' movies are rated PG-13. Do ratings make sense anymore?"Washington Post. 20 Oct. 2014.

Box office is all that matters in the end. If softening a few rough edges broadens the audience, I'm good with that.

Jaws was PG-13, and I got to watch a guy be eaten alive by a monster shark.
