In a brief essay, explain why writer/director James Mangold wanted to have Logan, the final Wolverine movie from the X-Men series, to be rated R.
What will be an ideal response?
“It wasn’t because of the violence and it wasn’t because of the language, but because I didn’t have to write a movie, and neither did my compatriots, for 11-year-olds. If we had a rated-R movie there were gonna be no Happy Meals. There can be no action figures... so that suddenly you’re not making a movie written for someone under 14, 15. And that changes the length of the scenes. It changes what they’re talking about.” Mangold says the R-rating gave Wolverine and Professor X time to talk about mortality in an extended scene that would never be tolerated in a PG-13 film.
