Max Payne re-cut to PG-13!
September 30, 2008
Anyone who had been hoping that the big screen version of the hit videogame Max Payne would be a hardcore, R-rated release will be very disappointed by the following news. GameDaily reports that Max Payne, a 20th Century Fox release, has been re-cut to attain a broader audience-friendly PG-13 rating. The John Moore-directed film had initially earned an "R" rating from the Motion Picture Association of America due to its violent content. What's notable, however, is that this time it was the director and not the studio forcing the issue of getting the more audience-friendly PG-13 rating. "I didn't have to change much. We trimmed some frames more for the sake of trimming frames than anything, but we got the rating without any major changes at all," Moore told GameDaily. "I'm a little surprised that we changed their minds, effectively, but I'm happy about it. It proves that if you stick to your guns and you have the creative, and dare I say moral sense, that you're in the right, that you can get the right thing done." But lest you fear you may never see the darker version of Max Payne, Moore has a plan up his sleeve. "There's what I call the Gamer Dedicated Cut of the movie. It's a little slower and a little more atmospheric. There are some rougher edges on it, but it's not going to be a bloodfest. I want this to be the Max Payne that I set out to shoot. It's not that I wanted to release one version in the theaters and make a cheap buck by following up with a blood-drenched DVD version. The movie you see in the theaters will be an intense experience and the movie you see on DVD will be as intense an experience too, with some extra sensibilities for people who really adore the game."

Come on MD, love a nerd :) Oh, and this could suck, but Max Payne wasnt the bloodiest game ever, merely violent. Now, if they make a PG 13 FEAR movie, I will kill someone. Seriously.

Did Paul WS Anderson ever even play Resident Evil? They were horror games, not action...

I'm sorry, I wasnt quite yet into double digits when Pac-Man fell out of vogue, so my memory of it is a bit hazy. I forgot there was a "mouth opening" noise too.
Thats what we need, a live action pac man movie :D Or better still, live action Frogger. Just 90 minutes of stock footage of frogs getting run over on a highway. Plot is provided via voice over, with someone mimicking Dudley Moore a-la "Milo and Otis". If this comes to pass, i want every forum member to forward me a dollar to celebrate my greatness :D
