10 Incredible F-Bombs Dropped In PG-13 Movies
Sometimes, you just have to drop an F-Bomb to make a f**king point!
When it comes to the American film industry, there are a lot of rules about what can be shown and said in any given scene. The Motion Picture Association of America (MPAA) ensures that you don't take your kids to see an animated film only to hear nothing but F-Bombs and the like.
In fact, the MPAA is so strict when it comes to that one word, it can only be said a single time in a PG-13 movie. Because of this, some directors have found the perfect situations to use it in their movies.
While not every F-Bomb drop in a PG-13 movie is memorable, there are some that truly captured a scene. The audience doesn't leave those films thinking that one word was unnecessary because it absolutely was.
With millions upon millions of F-Bombs having been dropped over the years, there are only a choice few that did it perfectly. Of the many that have been used, and whether it was used as a noun, a verb, an adjective, or any of the other ways the most versatile word in the English language can be used, these 10 films dropped the F-Bomb perfectly.
10. Alita: Battle Angel
Alita: Battle Angel was one of those movies that could easily have jumped from its PG-13 rating to an R with just a few more frames of gore or even another well-placed F-Bomb. As it happens, the movie only dropped the word in one scene, but that's all it needed.
The scene happened after Grewishka and Alita's first battle takes them to a subterranean part of the city beneath the bounty hunter's bar. After Alita gets her body ripped to shreds — really, she had just a part of her torso, an arm, and her head remaining — she hears a sort of villain speech.
Grewishka lets her know that he can't wait to collect her remains as a prize so he can hear her plead for mercy for the rest of eternity. That pretty much fell on deaf ears seeing as Alita still had the use of her arm.
She used it to pick herself up, fling her remaining body at her enemy, and rip out his eyeball! This was quickly followed with what has to be the best line of the whole film, when she said: "F**k your mercy."
