Remember Mary Poppins? The loveable G-rated movie about a magical nanny that helps a London family return to its values? With Julie Andrews as Mary Poppins and Dick Van Dyke as Bert, her gregarious chimney sweep follower?
Of course you do. Mary Poppins is unforgettable.
Well...the sequel just came out...Mary Poppins Returns -- and it is rated PG! How can that be possible? How can Mary Poppins be PG? Does Mary show a little leg? Does Bert smoke a cigarette? Does Michael Banks drink a cocktail to drown his woes? Do the dancing chimney sweeps sing a Chris Brown song?
Walt Disney must be rolling in his grave.
Have we really gotten to the point that Hollywood cannot even make Mary Poppins G?
What's next, an R-rated Mickey Mouse movie?
