Year One Secures a PG-13 Rating

It seems a new prehistoric comedy has finally secured a summer-friendly rating. According to The Hollywood Reporter, Year One has been given a PG-13 rating.

The Harold Ramis film had initially been given an R rating and also lost an appeal to get the rating lowered. Ramis and producer Judd Apatow were forced to make some cuts to the film and this new cut was granted a PG-13 rating.

The new rating is for "for crude and sexual content throughout, brief strong language and comic violence." The film, which stars Jack Black and Michael Cera, is set to open on June 19.

Year One was released June 19th, 2009 and stars Jack Black, Michael Cera, Oliver Platt, David Cross, Christopher Mintz-Plasse, Vinnie Jones, Hank Azaria, Juno Temple. The film is directed by Harold Ramis.

    This is the kinda thing that kills theatrical releases...
    My friends and I had every intention of seeing this opening day...Now, we'll wait for the sure to be released "Unrated" edition on blu-ray and dvd...Same reason we didn't see the Watchmen...Why see half the flick when the unrated director's cut will be out in a few more months. I mean, you do the math theatrical version 162 min, DVD/Blu-Ray edition 205 min. Anyone not see the conflict there, especially when you're trying to tell a COMPLETE F**KING STORY? What happen to movies being movies? Remember buying DVDs without the fear of them releasing 2 or 3 different versions you'd get suckered into buying before you get everything you want?
    Yeah, Me too...
