The Hobbit: The Battle of the Five Armies Extended Edition is Rated R

Ok, so imagine you hear of this one night event, and you look forward to it for a month.  You've prepared yourself, bought special things to wear, filled your sister's life with way too much of your obsessive talk, and it's finally a week away.










And then you find out it's rated R.



My reaction exactly.




I can't imagine why it would get such a high rating!!!  I mean, they only added 20 minutes of extra footage.  What's in it that upped the rating??!?!?  Beorn can't come in and crush Bolg, since Legolas already kills the filth for him, maybe Bolg goes crushes the rest of his army?  I highly doubt there is any real inappropriate content, since the rating only says "For Some Battle Content."  And so, after purchasing Tauriel's necklace and elven ears, starting to modify my costume from last year, and becoming crazy excited, I receive the news I can't go.

I guess I'll have to do my crying hear at home while extended footage is playing on the big screen.


Ice cream, anyone?

  1. I KNOW!!!!!!!! I would have been able to go, but we can't. I heard that it is extended battle scenes. But Jacquie, I will SOOOOO sit here with you and eat ice cream and cry!!!! I comfort myself with the fact that at least I got to see the theatrical in theater. It was my first time in a theater and it will always be a night to remember!

  2. Waht!?! I can't believe it's rated R! Sure enough, I looked it up on Amazon. Good gravy! O.o

  3. I didn't go see it yet, but a friend did, and she said it's just all extra violence. So that's a bit of a comfort, anyway.

  4. I heard that they made PJ rate it R for some of the CGI in the movie. My sister saw it and said that there were just some severed limbs on the ground and a lot of violent battle...nothing we haven't seen right? :)
