Hogwarts RPG Name: Craig Dole | No, that quote is not from the movie. It is what the person writing the article calls Voldemort.
And HP won't go above PG-13. There's no reason for it to.
Look at Batman Begins! You can't get much darker than that. Same with the X-Men movies. |

Hogwarts RPG Name: William Quinn Third | I think he was joking about using the name "Voldemort" I suppose it's considered a cuss word to wizards. |

Yes I have to sleep darn it!
It IS official but that curse line wasn't confirmed so that's just rumour . BTW nobody should be quoting that here! Quote: |

| Yeah maybe it means the name 'Voldemort' is used once becuase it's considered rude by wizards -- although that would be ironic seeing as they had Hermione say it in PS *groans* |

| You couldn't just take the words out instead of deleting an entire post that had other points to it? I've been to a lot of boards who don't want swearing, and that's usually what they do...
Any ways... since I have to re-make my point, if you re-read the statement, which I can't quote to make my point, it says because someone refers to that statement (oh, isn't this fun?) and to me, TVGuide was insinuating that the term is in the movie. Or something similiar because it says a 'reference' to. If it was just insinuating that Voldemort itself is a curse word, why not write, "He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named"? Since they're obviously smart enough to know that "Voldemort"'s name is a no-no in the wizarding world... |

| | | I guess it wouldn't hurt to rate it PG-13, just to be safe. of course there are alot of parents who only let their kids watch something *they* think is right. | |

| GOF book is a dark one. So the movie is supposed to be darker..You knew of course the effective things that the directors done in their movies. It's quite right that they do rating like that. Kids wouldn't bear to see a death ( As I think ). |

| I think pg13 is indeed best, there will be some pretty scary stuff in it and this way the parents are warned...of course, many will just ignore the pg-rating I'm sure... |

| I am not yet 13, and I hope my parents will let me see it. They have never let me see a PG-13 movie in theaters before. but if it comes down to begging, I will. I think that you are right it should be rated PG-13... but I still don't like it. I want to see if anyone agrees with me I think the should switch PG, and PG-13..
do you get it!!?? it should go. G, PG-13, PG, R,...
because PG means Parental Guidence
and PG-13 means PArental guidence for children under 13.
soooo.... Pg, means above 13. it says PARENTAL GUIDENCE..
I think the two should be switched! |

| I think that the rating is perfect for the film.It is a whole lot darker than the other films so the rating fits it.I think the rating is PG-13 because of all the dark scenes and all the fire and the fighting and everything.So I think that it fits the film really nice. |

| I think it's OK that it's PG-13, because it's only rated that for violence and frighting images, not for anything else, so i can see it still. I think there might be more swear words, because in some PG-13 movies dont say in the ratings that there is swearing. |

The scariest part in PoA is defo the Lupin/werewolf transformation. In CoS it's the spiders. There isnt anything scary in PS/SS.
If we have the sneak peaks to go by this is gonna be scary. Not like a 15 cert but with the Quidditch World Cup scene it sounds like it will be a bit scary!
It will be ashame for the young ones because they wouldnt be able to see it till it's DVD/VHS release! After all it is a "children's book!" |
