So like....
Similar to how Marvel Entertainment is under Disney.... yall do know Miramax was under Disney right?
"Ok..... and?"
Yall may respond
Well.... Disney, the multinational conglomerate, owned
Miramax Films from 1993—2010.
From this perspective, anything released by Miramax and Dimension Films during this time period could technically be considered as released by Disney, the multinational conglomerate. Miramax owned the genre label
Dimension Films (specializing in genre films).
Some of the R-rated films that
Miramax released during this time period:
- Quentin Tarantino’s Pulp Fiction
- Quentin Tarantino’s Kill Bill Volume 1 and Volume 2
- Peter Jackson’s Heavenly Creatures
- Kevin Smith’s Clerks
- Gary Felder’s Things to Do in Denver When You're Dead
- Woody Allen’s Mighty Aphrodite
- Danny Boyle’s Trainspotting
- Anthony Minghella’s The English Patient
- Gus Van Sant’s Good Will Hunting
- Lasse Hallström’s The Cider House Rules
- Steven Soderbergh’s Full Frontal
Some of the R-rated films that
Dimension Films released during this time period:
- Robert Rodriguez’s From Dusk Till Dawn
- Robert Rodriguez’s Sin City
- Robert Rodriguez’s The Faculty
- Halloween H20: 20 Years Later
- Wes Craven’s Scream
- Wes Craven’s Scream 2
- Wes Craven’s Scream 3
- Bad Santa
- The Amityville Horror
So I think we can stop pretending that Disney wont release Rated R movies.... I think its more of a manner of what makes sense, what doesnt make sense, and if there is money in it.
A Rated R Deadpool could make sense going forward, it wouldnt make sense to make say an Xmen Origins: Rogue stand alone film rated R
