R.

GFW showed us a PG-13 rating isn't hardcore enough.

Agreed. While a hot actress can help a movie pretty significantly, Godzilla isn't a fanservice (or general sex) kind of series. The only nudity the series has ever had (GvsM truck pinups, Katsura's operation scene and GvsSG) came off as somewhat to completely unnecessary. It's just not that type of franchise (one of the few Japan seems to have left).

Just because the movie was bad to you doesn't mean the blasted RATING is bad! For pete's sake, do you now hate violence and Godzilla because it was associated with GFW?
-_- -_- -_-

Do you really think JVM's serious? Look at the guy's signature, for Obama's sake.

On topic, an R rating would probably be shot down instantly by Toho...it just doesn't feel right. Not everything needs T&A or HARDCORE GORE!111!!!

PG-13 seems most likely to me.

It doesn't make market sense is the issue. Unless the movie is ridiculously popular, the R rating drives away the bulk of the theater-going population: teenagers. They provide an incredible amount of revenue. On the flip side, with the death of the G movie, the PG rating doesn't grab them either, relying on children and parents. PG-13 has been the key rating to shoot for and push the limits of. Especially for summer blockbusters.

You have to have sex,gore, lots of violence,drugs,nudity or smoking(i think) to get a R rating.

PG-13 is the most logical choice. The nearest to it getting an R would be if they had an unrated version on Dvd (allows them to milk it even more with the hardcore fans and the teenagers that like Hardcore stuff.)
GVK: TNE is a modern day 70s Showa Godzilla movie. Being a massive budget modern blockbuster CGI film instead of traditional 70s tokusatsu techniques doesn't change that.

Monsterverse is not similar to either MCU nor Bayformers just because all three are big budget CGI blockbuster franchises.

Or just a few F words.
It is a simple story. There is nothing that brings me happiness. Be it believing in others or them believe in me, it did not matter.
What others called happiness simply did not bring me joy.

We're talking about the rating of a film that hasn't been shot yet. Pointless, isn' it?

Why is everybody questioning the logic of this topic when quite a lot of the topics in this section are just as pointless? :roll:

But really, PG-13 sounds reasonable. An R rating would be...odd. Cloverfield had good reasons to be given such a rating. Gore in a Godzilla movie? Not going to work...

I'm half-serious. The GFW reference was more of a joke, but I do still feel it should be R-rated. I don't expect it though.

I voted an R - Rating, only on the grounds that IF it may be necessary, only for violence and intense action/violence, moderate use of mild language, some sort of humor, and possibly scary images if it would work in the context of the plot and allow the proper emphasis to make a scene interesting and putting the audience on the edge of their seats.

As a guy, I like a good looking woman, but I agree that Godzilla is NOT a series of fan service/porn/sex/etc.

Nudity has made its incursions in the series, but they were all out of place and really shouldn't have been there.

At all.

Hopefully there won't be any stupid sex/masturbation/porn cracks like Michael Bay's mediocre Transformers movies.
