      I used to watch Gremlins and it’s sequel a lot when I was around 8 or 9 years old and although I found it scary to a degree, I never found it to be too gruesome or scary for that age. They show little to no blood unlike Jaws. Watching it again now that I’m older it still doesn’t feel too bad for a PG, still a hard PG but not beyond the limit imo. And the sequel being given a PG-13 doesn’t make sense to me.

      Ever since Jurassic Park, PG-13 has basically meant "R lite." Many PG-13 movies have outright gore, gratuitous nudity, f-bombs, human blood, brutal killings, and people's faces coming off. When Hollywood wants to sell more tickets to an R-rated movie, they just edit some of those scenes down a little bit, and kids can walk right in. They take a scene where a guy is getting cut in half, and they just cut that shot in half and get their PG-13 rating and a few million extra in revenues.

      What PG-13 movies have you been watching? Because ever since Jurassic Park and right round the 2000s, the PG-13 rating has been getting more and more strict. Blood and gore are absolutely non-existent (violence is still there but no blood and gore at all), it can't focused on painful suffering in regards to the violence, sex is minimal to none, language is only allowed two f bombs max, and so on and so forth. Seriously, compare the PG-13 version of Deadpool 2 to it's R rated version. The violence is completely bloodless; with head shots off screen completely, stabbings bloodless with no exit wounds, other shootings having no blood, bone breaking having less explicit crunchy sounds, several scenes of substantial killings just completely removed. Deadpool being ripped in half is off screen now (with substantially less explicit sound effects) and all the blood/gore of Deadpool's wound has been either cropped out or digitally removed. Deadpool's head being bashed graphically on a rock is removed, and so forth. Crude jokes are changed to be less inappropriate. F bombs are bleeped, removed, or dub with lesser swears. And so on and so forth and the PG-13 version of Deadpool 2 was pushing the rating to its limits.

    The MPAA was new back then and as time went on you saw them create PG-13. Some movies were later upgraded to PG-13. E.T., Gremlins, Casper, Shrek and similar movies are PG movies any more generic and they'd be rated G. People forget about rated G.
    There's G, PG, PG-13, R, NR, NC-17, M, X, XXX.
    If you ask me people should rate movies on their own to help others seeing them. I would rate movies by age and content.

    • @JChannel_
      @JChannel_ Před 4 lety

      @Conrad Kuntz Yes there is they're adult viewing ratings.
      M for Mature that a R or NC-17 can sometimes be upgraded to. Wild Things & Poison Ivy -never seen - and movies like this are argued as being M or X. X is X rated meaning the gore, graphic content or sexual content is too much even for NC-17 or M, which can be interchangeable. X is probably for things similar, like or worse than Cannibal Haulicaust. XXX is obviously for straight up porn. So yeah XXX is usually any porn related content but I'm sure it could include a very gory movie if the movie was even more graphic than what anyone can imagine. War documentaries could fall in this line but I'm sure they're hidden under ratings such as NR, NC-17, M or X. All these ratings run together in a sense. Movies that get one of these ratings tend to just hide their rating under NR for Not Rated or Unrated which then just confuses people who the content is for especially when many good content along with bad content is published under the rating.

      Stronger than NC-17 is regarded as just X for movies, but that's not really a functional rating. The MPAA would deem the film not suitable for theaters at all, that adult film theaters would be on their own. M is for video games, and MA is for television.

    • @coprographia
      @coprographia Před 3 lety +1

      X is long defunct, XXX was an unofficial rating made up by the pornography industry, and as far as the United States goes there is no M rating for films. NR stands for Not Rated, so that’s not a rating. The only MPAA rating harder than R is NC-17, and it’s very rare - studios usually refuse to accept an NC-17 rating because it badly limits the marketing and distribution, so they either recut or appeal for an R.

The fights get a bit bloodly and there a couple brief bits of topless nudity. That film also won an appeal for a PG as evidenced by some early posters using the original R rating.

    Imo the saddest consequence of the creation of PG-13 and PG becoming the new G is that you wouldn't get all these "bait and switch" films like Wizards or Gremlins which had pretty childish, whimsical fantasy settings but progressively dialed up the adult themes or turned grim and scary. Nowadays it's a lot less subtle since these tend to be R-rated from the start.

      WRONG. The reason is because the parents who rated these movies didn't have a clear comprehension of what constitutes G-level or PG-level or PG13-level at the time (most of these movies were in the 80s and earlier). It wasn't until the 90s until they got a clearer idea of what content belongs at what level.

    Man, the West sure has become more weak, censorious, and wussified.
    I have lived in the United States for most of my life and I was born in 2001. According to my mother, the very first movie she and my father took me to see in a theater of any kind was the original Shrek and that was a PG rated movie! I was about 3-4 months old at the time that movie first came out. And I can gladly say that Shrek is a movie that truly deserves that rating. I honestly do not get why Frozen got the PG rating. It's very very tame even for PG standards! Heck! I and most of my siblings were raised on DVDs and VHSs of 'kids movies' and many of them (like The Lion King, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, Matilda, and Beetlejuice) had way more tense content than most 'kids movies' nowadays and they mostly were rated G and PG!
    It's no wonder why South Korea and Japan are currently kicking our butts when it comes to entertainment! I have had more fun and entertainment watching modern anime, Tokusatsu, and K-dramas than any modern American television show!
    It seems that the only things the West (mostly) knows how to make are awful adaptations/reboots/remakes/sequels/prequels that weaponize people's nostalgia for their own benefit, melodramatic Lifetime movies, sappy Hallmark movies, terrible teen shows, dreadful reality TV, overly childish cartoons, and soulless propaganda from both sides. And the less said about the dreaded specter that's plaguing the West known as 'cancel culture" the better.

When Shrek says “I have to save my ass” he’s referring to Donkey because it’s another word for a donkey, same with when Shrek calls him a bungling jackass.

      And, *Jaws 3* has even worse blood/gore than the original film. One scene is very hard (for me) to look at.

    If I was a parent I’d let my kids watch Gremlins but not Jaws.

      @@jesusmejia79 Kids should be allowed to watch Gremlins if they are at least 8 years old. I watched it when I was 8 and loved it. Gremlins did not traumatise me at that age although it was still scary to a degree. Gremlins is obviously a family movie so not letting kids watch it would be pretty dumb. But Jaws is so not for kids and way too violent and gory for children.

    The scene where all the nazis die in Raiders is hilarious tbh.

      Yeah, same with the Joker’s pencil trick in the Dark Knight.

    Top Gun should have been included in this video.
