Luminance 2,186 August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 Looking at the trailer, I can tell that the movie would most likely be PG already. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chrylestia600 1,307 August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 Totally saw the PG rating coming. Honestly thought there might have been more than just 'mild action' though. 1 *Signature by @Kyoshi* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NightmareLuna800 1,383 August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 Like Chrylestia, I totally saw a PG rating coming for this movie. I figured it wouldn't have been as low as G, and I know it wouldn't have reached PG-13. That's for sure. XD 2 "Signature by Kyoshi" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And as @cmarston1 said, the G rating seems to be dead, which was another reason I really didn't think it would be that. 1 *Signature by @Kyoshi* Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PoisonClaw 8,164 August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 To quote the Nostalgia Critic, nowadays PG stands for "Practically G", so this isn't really a surprise in the slightest. 4 MLPForums "Self-Proclaimed" Kamen Rider NutNow, count up your sins!I do Traditional commissions, by the way!

Patty Thundersnow 4,165 August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 I am not surprised AT ALL. Like @PoisonClaw mentioned, PG is used for basically everything these days that should be G rated. That's basically why the rating system is flawed. "Never give up, because you can't succeed if you don't even try." - Personal Motto "Anything worth doing has risks. Believe me, this is worth doing."

That's basically why the rating system is flawed. there honestly needs to be a bigger rating system; "Nothing offensive, suitable for toddlers", "Up to about 7ish in appropriateness" "Up to about 12ish" "17ish", and "18+" Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ganondorf8 11,318 August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 I suspected that this was going to be the rating so I'm not surprised by it. This does mean that they can push things a little further when it comes to the violence aspect though not too much otherwise it could backfire.

FirePuppy 735 August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 Even though it's rated PG, since it's only for "mild action", chances are, it'll probably be rated U in the United Kingdom, and G in Canada, Australia, New Zealand, and I guess, the Philippines as well. I admit, I shouldn't have been so fearmongering in the first place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Now we have animated movies that are rated PG but are way more tame then the movies that came before them. Mlp The Movie isn't going to have any content that deserves a PG rating. It will be a G rated movie with a PG rating. I mean maybe they say "hell" and that's what got it the PG rating, but I doubt it. Signature made by Kyoshi.

PG-13 films today may have gotten an R rating 30 years ago. Back then an R rating was a kiss of death for many films ... not so much these days. It's amusing because back in 1986 Hasbro did NOT want Transformers The Movie to have a G rating. The first draft was actually darker knowing that they were targeting a PG. In the end they toned it down, but still added some minor profanity just to ensure a PG rating. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah but a G rating wouldn't affect ticket sales for the Mlp Movie. The show is TV-Y which is basically the same as G. Also I'd have to agree on the ratings being more lax now. Robo Cop had to go through twelve cuts before it got an R rating. Logan is rated R but is ten times more violent than Robo Cop. Signature made by Kyoshi.

Tiny Hoofs 200 August 2, 2017 Share August 2, 2017 (edited) As others said, a PG rating doesn't mean that much these days. You can basically expect anything more risqué than The Oogieloves in the Big Balloon Adventure to get a PG rating. The Nostalgia Critic explains it the best. I was actually expecting something along those lines. From what we've seen, it will have at least some some mild fantasy violence and peril.

Ingoma 75 August 4, 2017 Share August 4, 2017 It's PG! Oh celestia... THIS MOVIE WILL BE VIOLENT! Bring out the guns and excessive blood amounts! And don't forget the explicit scenes! How will the franchise SURVIVE? If I could rewind, change my mind and do it all again With all the answers ahead of me, and know how it would all end. Would I make the same choice, like before I knew. That our destinies were tied, to each other and it was me and you. One not two Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moved to Elsewhere 11,331 August 4, 2017 Share August 4, 2017 Well it kinda figures. Movie studios that aren't Disney have to make their movies PG so the general movie goer doesn't think it's a dumb kids movie. Nostalgia Critic explained it best, but that vid was already linked in here Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
