Especially as LOTR had blood and guts flying, blood stained swords and other types of violence. Fitting of course as they were indeed impaling and decapitating living creatures with blood flowing through their veins
The Hobbit went for a different approach, most likely to keep it more kid-friendly, despite also being PG-13, so the same rules should apply. I'm thinking this was more the studio intervening as opposed to a decision by Jackson.
As I said, some moments annoyed me. Most notably those when a shiny sword is lodged into an orc or warg, only to be pulled out just as shiny and completely spotless. I know with PG-13 movies you're not allowed to show blood poor out of a wound (unless the blood is colored, because it's no longer "human"!), but they could at least have dirtied the weapons up a bit throughout the movie, with blood and dirt.
As for the people saying "I don't like much blood anyways". Fair enough, but when you stab a living creature there will be blood, whether you like it or not. I myself don't see how everything being completely bloodless makes it better.
I hope the BOFA won't be as clean.
