well, if the movie is consistent with what we saw in the trailer, I'd say no higher than a PG17 - unless they throw a sex scene in there. And I'm praying I dont have to see heterosex in this movie (no offense).

hmghost,

If it'll make you feel any better: there's a damn good chance that we might see some Hud-Rob action onscreen. Or at least Hud trying to hit on Rob.

Have you read Hud's blogs and comments to Rob? The way he idolizes him ("How am I gonna survive without you? You're my main dude"...and the comic-book heroes blog where he seems to compare Rob to his idol from X-Men, Cyclops) has led me to believe that Hud is in the closet and has been lusting after Rob for quite awhile now.

Classic love triangle, expanded exponentially -- Hud has the hots for Rob; Rob has the hots for Beth; Beth probably has the hots for Lil; who already is in a relationship with Hawk; who probably lusts after Jamie; who has the hots for Teddy. And also the hots, maybe, for Rob. And, uh, maybe Lena. And....well, everybody, in Jamie's case.... Embarassed

It should have a R rating, They never show people getting killed in PG-13, Want to see people chewed up or squished. Want the gore effects of a horror movie into a great Monster movie.

My point was that all PG-13 movies aren't necessarily bad, and all R movies aren't necessarily good.

Again, with the level of effort JJ (and his company) has put into this marketing, it has reached a fairly large audience. It has been discussed on television, etc. Most everybody on the intarweb has at least heard of the 1-18 phenomenon. I don't think I'd label this 'obscure' by any stretch.

Certainly, this isn't major mainstream marketing, but it's NOT obscure.

I think Paramount's bottom line is that they're looking at the bottom line...for "Star Trek."

Pretty much, Paramount hired JJ for one reason above all: to make "Star Trek" into a megabajillion blockbuster. That's why they threw him $190 million for that and gushed that he's the next Steven Spielberg.

So, $30 million to throw JJ a bone to go play in the sandbox, flex his creative talent? No prob. Paramount could care less if "Cloverfield" sinks or swims, so long as "Trek" brings home the gold.
