The violence against children in this movie


How was this movie allowed in the theaters? James Cameron is a sadist. It shows playgrounds burning, children turning into ashes, skeletons. What the hell!

reply

It is the opposite

We are supposed to feel bad about those scenes, and cheer the heroes(including a child) to prevent those things from happeneing

reply

Still they went into graphic details showing children suffer terrible deaths. Was it rated R 18 when it was released? I wasn't born then.

reply

In the US, the theatrical version did indeed receive an MPAA "R" rating.

reply

I guess it was the highest grossing MPAA "R" rated movie of 1991?

reply

I wouldn't be surprised if it was.

I love it when trolls identify themselves so easily so I can put them on IGNORE

Ignore is for pussies.

Dude, are you for real lol? There's something you forgot when you watched this movie.....IT'S NOT REAL. It's just a movie....get a grip. No one got hurt and Cameron is not a sadist because no one really got burned up and died lol!

The scene was all Sarah's nightmare - the same one she's been having for years because she's knows for a fact that its going to happen for real. Why should the director whitewash the horrors of a nuclear holocaust when it's the one single fear and dread of this that haunts Sarah and drives her character arc? The threat of nuclear annihilation should always be in the back of our minds, especially if we're gonna elect lunatic leaders who publicly ponder questions like "What's the point of having nuclear weapons if we can't use 'em?".

The movie is rated R and is not for delicate little tulips. You should stick to Disney movies.

OP is the reason why movies suck ass these days........ and sjw feminists as well... of course

Oh man, the Sarah's Nightmare sequence totally fucked me up when I saw it!

reply

I guess, you have never ever seen a horror movie. Lol

reply

It was rated R for a reason you idiot

reply

You barely saw kids in that scene and it was more focused on Sarah Connor being burned alive.

reply

Heh. Don't let this guy watch The Monster Squad then.
