Max Payne Director Disappointed with MPAA, Charges Them of Doing a Certain Something with Male Genitalia
John Moore, director of the upcoming Max Payne film starring Mark Wahlberg, is highly disappointed with the MPAA, the body that rates films, and is equally vocal about it.
“The Motion Picture Association of America gave The Dark Knight a PG-13 rating and basically sucked Warner Bros.’ cock,” he said, referring to the blockbuster superhero movie that was thought to be too dark for a PG-13 rating.
“I have a serious amount of issues with the MPAA,” he continued. “The MPAA changes their rules willy-nilly and it depends on who’s seeing your actual movie at the time. It’s very difficult to get a hold on what’s acceptable.”
Moore also feels that the MPAA has treated him unfairly and that they are subjective when assigning an R rating.
“They said to me, the movie feels R. And I said, ‘What the fuck is that, a group therapy session?’ You can’t do that. They’re meant to judge content, not intent.”
Max Payne is set to open in theaters on October 17.
