An R-rated Wolverine movie?

[oakman29]

We all know that a superhero movie that gets an R rating doesn't do well.Look at Conan the Barbarian 3D,it had a 90 million production.

 

Total US Gross $21,295,021

International Gross $11,339,006

Worldwide Gross $32,634,027

What a bomb.

Please, no more terrible Wolverine movies! Please!

I'm thinking The Producers of ''DREDD'' saw these numbers and they decided to reshoot for a PG-13 insted of the intended Hard R.

Probably a very smart move on their part.

At least Green Lantern is finally in the green,no pun intended.

200 million production.

A live action version of the Weapon X story in MCP would be awesome. It would probably flop though. Instead of his costume he just wears some computer innards like a diaper the whole time.

See,this why a R-rated Wolverine movie wouldn't work.

 

If you take a look at the box office gross of both PG-13 and R rated superhero movies,PG-13 movies have a better box office gross than R-rated movies.

 

I know every Wolverine fan wants to see a R-rated sequel,but it's never going to happen because kids,teens & parents make up for the ticket sales.

[Shaven Kev-migration]

they should leave off the diaper and make it x-rated

 

hugh jackman wang would have major box office from the ladies...and probably some dudes who are fans of his broadway stuff.

Pretty much sums it up imo

You just watch when Total Recall comes out - It's going to bomb, too. I believe an old gypsy put an curse on Arnold Schwarzenegger remakes.

You might have something there?

And even less chance of seeing a realistic X-Force film made featuring Wolverine, X-23, Warpath, Archangel and Fantomex. That would be a bit of a bloodbath.

Watchmen and 300 were great comic book flicks with an R rating. (I know some will disagree with Watchmen but I loved it). Other good ones are V for Vendetta, A History of Violence and From Hell. Now if The Dark Knight Returns ever gets made, it better be a hard R.

While those movies did well at the box office,they didn't bring in the big numbers like Spider-Man or the Dark Knight.

Not as big but 300 brought in over 450 million worldwide which isn't too shabby. 300 did beat each of the Spider-Man movies in Blu-ray sales.

That's true,but 300 was different b/c it was the only movie worth seeing in march

 

I still don't think a R-rating will help the Wolverine sequel.

[Silver Surfer]

However, Wolvie is my favorite, and I will pay $20 to see the crappiest, lamest Wolverine movies ever out of gratitude that they are making them at all.

 

 

My thoughts.....EXACTLY......

 

In X-Men First Class, Magneto and Charles approach Wolvie in a bar and he quickly tells them to "f-off". Had to admit it caught me off guard but he was very much in character.

[ComicConnoisseur]

Simple solution.

Have the Wolverine movie PG-13

then have a R rated Directors cut on dvd/blu-ray.

Solves the problem and everybody is happy!
