If God Of War + God Of War II were a movie, what will you rate it?
For anyone who loves God Of War & God Of War II and wishes that there were a movie, what will you rate it (G, PG, PG-13, R, NC-17, etc)?
shareFor me, if they were a movie, it would be:
God Of War:
Rated R For Graphic Violence Throughout, And Some Sexuality/Nudity
God Of War II:
Rated R For Graphic Violence Throughout, Some Sexuality/Nudity And Disturbing Images
Do you accept it?
GOW- Canadian (14A) Frequent Violence, Gory Scenes, Nudity
R- Bloody Mythological Combat Throughout, and Nudity
GOW has to be rated R. It's incredibly violent from the get go and there isn't enough nudity to push it higher.
As for a GOW2 movie, I would be opposed. GOW is an excellent story grounded in enough common knowledge mythology that it feels very plausible. GOW concludes with all ends tied up and really leaves no questions. GOW2 and GOW3 are fun video games but not movie material. The first however could be excellent.
I have a feeling that if this concept is ever seriously considered as a big budget movie, they will try and package it as a PG-13 movie. Before that happens though, I hope they consider 300 a success as it was rated R and made money in theaters as well as had a ton of DVD sales. With the recent focus on 3D, it would be absolutely awesome to see Kratos, all the blood, and the blades of chaos in IMAX 3D. A rated R version of that should be good...except for one thing. Hollywood always finds a way to destroy the video game adaption because for some reason they feel that the story needs to be changed and they don't put the correct person in charge with enough respect for the original source material.
