Just so you know the only thing that specifically lands an R rating is the word "Fuck". Say it once, even in a Pixar movie and you just got yourself an R rating. It's stupid.
It also ruins the film in may ways, if it were a serious film. For example lets say we have Suzy going to the movies and she sees some films up on the board to go see and she gets interested in one and sees its rating, its an R and says 'rape foul language etc' and lets say Suzy is deathly afraid of rape or was raped. Well in the movie you see a character deal with rape, endure it, live through it and cope, how this character got through that situation hell it might even help Suzy if at the very least to spark discussion with her friends and family about it but now that you said THIS MOVIE HAS TEH RAPES she's going to avoid the experience. Its like someone about to sit down and read Moby Dick and there's a warning on the first page that says "WHALE DOESNT EXIST" I cant freaking stand it.
