Kevin Smith Nabs 'R' Rating For New Film

Posted by John Manalang - Wednesday, August 06, 2008 2:31 PM

Hurdling over the previous NC-17 rating slap by the MPAA, Kevin Smith can now assure that his new film, Zack and Miri Make a Porno, will be available in most theaters. After yesterday's appeal screening, the MPAA has now revised the movie's rating to 'R', which means kiddies, you can now ask your older siblings to accompany you to see the flick (although we highly doubt they would).

Starring Seth Rogen (Pineapple Express) and Elizabeth Banks (40 Year-Old Virgin), Zack and Miri Make a Porno has both characters dipping into the pockets of the adult entertainment industry in order to make ends meet. The film, distributed by the Weinstein Company, is currently set to be released (oddly) this halloween, October 31.

Yay, Seth Rogan gets to ruin theaters another time this year. Maybe Kevin Smith will make him worth watching with his excellent direction and writing. Kinda the way he made Ben Affleck briefly tolerable.

No my life is actually pretty upbeat and enjoyable. Sorry that I can't find "I'm so funny because I smoke weed and smoking weed is funny" hilarious like so many others. Seth Rogan is a one trick pony and his trick is
"I smoke weed" which sadly enough CAN be funny. He just gets smarmy and comes across as a douche. Kevin Smith could make him funny so maybe there's hope.

Or wait, are you a Ben Affleck fan? There's no defense for that.

say wat u want about the guy but seth rogen can write and act which means hes not jst some tool like alot of other actors. and maybe his movies involve alot of weed but he has come out with about 3 movies this year all of which have fresh material.

I really don't see how you think that his charecter always revolves around weed. I have seen plenty of roles he has played that dont have anything to do with it and all of them are just as funny. He knows what he is doing and the comedy in these new movies is better then any other comedy movie I have seen in years. Most comedies fail at doing the one thing they should, make you laugh.
