As I was going through my DVD's to find something to watch the other night a question occurred to me. "I wonder what movies
would have been better if they had been done more adult and given a rated R rating?" I have given it a little thought
and this is the quick list I was able to come up with. If your passing through from
Digg.com, let me know
what you would have put into your list up on their board.
Star Wars Series
Star Trek Series
X-Men Series
Mission Impossible Series
James Bond Series
Do not get me wrong. I very much like all of these movies, yet I think if the directors and writers had put more of a hard "edge" to the
movies, (less campy?), I think it could have helped enhance the movies a bit. For example, I love the whole Star Wars universe but lets face it, George writes
dialoge for 10 year olds. Imagine if the dialogue could have been more "adult" in nature, and instead of "nice" light saber battles you have
something more like an old shogun movie or Kill Bill style.
Same deal with Star Trek, love the universe but it would have been nice
if they could have gone a bit darker. Same with X-men and the Mission Impossible movies. Lastly, the James Bond movies I think are
perhaps my longest pet peeve. Let's face it guys...Mr. Bond is a womanizing sex hungry mans man and we love him. Forget the
whole PC crowd. Let's hear some good old fashion swearing and and see some naked booty! Bond movies just BEG for it.
