It's rated PG-13 as well. I guess that kind of explains the tone presented in the trailer, which makes Ted look like a loveable scamp, not someone who raped and tortured women and children.
Didn't know the rating. I understand the reasoning as studios want to show the film to as wide of an audience as possible and PG-13 fills that. However, I've always felt, it hindered the film depending on the subject matter (i.e., horror movies, Deadpool, etc). Certain things, unless you water them way down, which I believe takes away from it, don't do the movie justice and I always avoid them if I know they're PG-13 going in to it. Still might catch it on demand or something but wouldn't waste my time in the theaters on it.
