‘Godzilla’, ‘Birdman’, ‘Edge of Tomorrow’ and ‘How to Train Your Dragon 2’ in Today’s MPAA Ratings

More than a few recognizable titles in today’s MPAA bulletin beginning with a Cannes Film Festival hopeful in Alejandro Gonzalez Inarritu‘s Birdman starring Michael Keaton and Edward Norton. Fox Searchlight will distribute the pic, and I’m sure they’re hoping for a good showing in the South of France before they set an official release date on what won’t be your typical superhero-esque movie.

Next is Tom Cruise‘s Edge of Tomorrow co-starring Emily Blunt as the sci-fi version of Groundhog Day receives a PG-13 ratings as does Warner Bros.’s Godzilla remake. No surprise on either front.

And from mutant monsters to medieval dragons, Dreamworks’ How to Train Your Dragon 2 scored a PG rating as did Radius’ food documentary Fed Up.
