Today we're counting down our picks for the top 10 R rated franchises that went PG 13. Yeah, where I that means we're looking at various franchises that started as adult oriented R rated movies before transitioning to PG 13 even if it was only for one movie. All right, let's get the list. Theo Number 10 The Scary Movie franchise The 1st 2 scary movie movies were delightfully crude and wickedly offensive. Yes, there was violence and profanity, but most of the vile content stemmed from sexuality. The first film included countless innuendos and that infamous bathroom stall sequence. Scary Movie two ramps up the sexual humor to an insane degree. Siri's subsequently shifted to a much more kid friendly and naked gun esque approach with Scary Movie three, a trend that continued with two subsequent Sequels. However, that's not to say they were less funny. In fact, most people would agree that three was a huge improvement over to no one actually kept track after that. See, they are peaceful. Well, they're so peaceful, man. Why were they choking this a few minutes ago. Oh, that's always a hello Number nine. The Riddick franchise. The Riddick Siri's has gone through quite a few alterations over the years. How many are there? It all began with Pitch Black, an alien like slasher that saw Riddick in a supporting role. Like many slashers, pitch Black was rated are largely for its gore, which includes a woman being ripped in half by killer bad things. The Siri's then shifted to a more side by approach with The Chronicles of Riddick losing a lot of violence and gore in the process. I'll kill you with my teacup. Various scenes were cut so the film could secure a PG 13 rating, but it was mostly for not as the movie bombed at the box office. Luckily, the Siri's returned to its violent R rated roots for 2000 thirteen's Ridic. It was a huge improvement. Maybe I wouldn't did the worst crime of all. I got civilized Number eight. The speed franchise speed is perhaps the lightest are in the history of light ours. It was rated such first violence and language. Although the violence is rather tame, the most extreme scene is when Howard gets decapitated in the subway, but it wasn't done in a graphic or disturbing way. Now the R rating mostly stems from the frequent swearing, including the mother of all curse words. Way didn't exactly lose much when Speed two Cruise Control was rated PG 13. There's no real swearing, and the violence is limited to what the M P A hilariously calls frenetic disaster action. Granted, no one saw speed to anyway, so it doesn't really matter. Number seven, the vacation franchise Most people know the vacation Siri's thanks to Christmas vacation, the harmless PG 13 rated holiday classic featuring and no nudity. And no serious wearing well, with one hilarious exception. We say that because the first vacation was actually rated R, it was released in 1983 a k a. Before the advent of the PG 13 rating, which followed one year later that said it would still receive an R rating today. Oh, shoot way. See Ellen's bare breasts on two separate occasions and the language isn't cleaned up at all. It's clear that the first vacation was meant for the parents, whereas the subsequent films, including Christmas Vacation, were intended. Maura's family events Theo, Theo Siri's did return to our territory with the 2015 soft reboot, but that's a road better left untraveled. This trip's been tonight. Well, that's what family vacations are, but you can't give up Number six the Expendables franchise. If an action series deserves to be rated R, it's the expendables. You can't just throw away. Cast like that on Cissy Disney Violence The 1st 2 movies saw to this as they were both rated, are due in part to bloody violence. Thing includes instances of severed limbs, graphic beheadings and bad guys being blown in half. That all changed with the significantly inferior Expendables three, which contained much tamer violence. Digging. Yeah, all the traditional stabbings, explosions and shootings are present, but gone are the visceral and messy results. It completely changed the nature of the Siri's and made it seem like it was catering to the younger demographic rather than bombastic eighties action movie nostalgia for what expendable? Number five. The Mad Max franchise. Both Mad Max and the Road Warrior were released before the advent of the PG 13 rating, so they qualify as light ours at best. Yes, the violence is persistent, but It's nothing that wouldn't be seen in a modern PG 13 action movie. Onley, one year after the invention of the PG 13 rating Beyond Thunderdome was given the rating due to its subdued and bloodless violence. Coincidentally, most people often consider this to be the weakest Mad Max. Thea R rating was subsequently reinstated for Fury Road, although this, too was a surprisingly light are, for the most part, Number four. The alien franchise and the Predator franchise, both Alien and Predator, helped define the eighties monster movie. Despite the lack of onscreen Gore. The 1st 3 alien movies were rated R mostly thanks to their horrifying visuals and dour tone. Theo this'll changed with Resurrection, which contained far more graphic detail. Predator was the more violent of the two franchises as it contained gory instances of skin ings, mutilations and severed limbs. Needless to say, fans were hyped to see some blood and flying limbs. In Alien versus Predator, it would surely contain the scariest and goriest of both franchises, right, Wrong. It was lame PG 13 nonsense that tended to cut away from the more violent moments, and most of the gory or violence was contained to the monsters themselves. That's cool, right? Right, Guys Number three. The die hard franchise. When it was announced that live free or Die hard would be PG 13 it was like the world was ending. Thief 1st 3 movies are rather violent, with John getting progressively bloodier throughout the story's goons or stabbed through the eye, and one man is sliced in half by cable. They also contained a lots of swearing, which helps convey John McClane's Everyman status. Who wouldn't be swearing in his situation in Live free or Die hard? John gets dirty rather than bloody, and the movie had the nerve to edit over his iconic Yippee Kai ay line with a gunshot. Nevertheless, we'd still take it over a good day to die hard, which proved that an R rating does not automatically equal a good movie. Father won't be alive Way Number two, Terminator franchise. Maybe it's about time the Siri's was terminated. The 1st 3 movies were given our ratings, with the 1st 2 being particularly hard. Ours they contain some graphic and fairly convincing surgery sequences, including the Terminator, cutting out his own eyeball. The violence is visceral and impactful, and the characters swear up a storm that Terminator is out there. It can't be bargained with. It can't be reasoned with, however, salvation and Genesis took the easy PG 13 route, and the movie suffered. As a result. Theo Ladder was particularly offensive, relying mostly on bloodless violence and horrible CG I to convey the carnage. Yeah, well, it looks like a piece of junk. The Siri's returned to its R rated roots for dark fate, but everyone had long stopped caring, and even then it was nothing compared to the 1st 2 films.

The Robocop franchise, The first Robocop is arguably one of the most violent mainstream films ever released and originally received an X rating based solely on its graphic violence. Thank you for your cooperation. Good night. Yes, most of the violence is comically over the top, but it still counts. The second movie retained the R rating, but the violence was significantly toned down. You sold us out, Officer Robocop three did away with the blood and Gore entirely resulting in the fan maligned an infamous PG 13 rating. It's also considered the worst film in the series. Almost like it completely took the soul out of the franchise for a quick book. Unfinished business. Of course, that completely backfired as no one went to see it. It was an utter disaster on all fronts, and Hollywood didn't exactly learn its lesson with the PG 13 remake. Why can't we use these machines here? Why is America so robo phobic who watches a movie like Die Hard or Robocop, Terminator and things that we go to make these for kids? Can you imagine if the first movie in each of those franchises had been PG 13 we probably wouldn't have had more of them. Actually, you know what you should do. Let us know in the comments what movie you think would be most pointless if it had been made into do 13. So, yeah, let us in on the comments, or come tell me on Twitter or Instagram at record.
