The PG-13 rated "Titanic" is the highest-grossing movie in history, and the top 10 includes four others -- both "Spider-Man" movies, "The Lord of the Rings: The Return of the King" and "Jurassic Park "I went to Jack Valenti, who's a friend of mine, and I said, 'Jack, why don't we do a rating called PG-13, which would suit films like "Gremlins" and "Indy 2"?"'

(answer below) LOS ANGELES, California (AP) -- This is the story of how a gooey green guy in a microwave, a pagan witchdoctor with a beating heart in his hand and that unlucky numeral 13 changed the way Hollywood makes its movies "In the end, as I have stated numberless times, it is the parent who has to make this judgment "Temple of Doom" earned $180 million, proving there was an audience that loved movies that mixed wholesomeness with horror " " He agreed to make the distinction at 13, saying that was an age when most kids knew the difference between fantasy and reality, and had more independence from their parents I invented the rating," Spielberg, the producer of "Gremlins" and director of "Temple of Doom," said in a recent interview It promised edge without threatening offense Joe Dante, the director of "Gremlins," and later "Small Soldiers" and "Looney Tunes: Back in Action," blames the backlash on the early trailers This great comparison shopping site offers you excellent It has been two decades since the summer of 1984, when "Gremlins" and "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" caused an uproar among some parents who took their young children to the PG-rated films and walked out wishing the rating had suggested more guidance than just "parental guidance suggested "I didn't seek their approval or anything," Valenti said "People will go out of their way to put one dirty word in it just to get the rating that they need to give the picture some legitimacy, so the kids won't feel like they're going to see their little brother's movie "I created the problem and I also supplied the solution "By today's standards it's not a big deal," he said Cutting those scenes may have improved the chances of getting PG ratings "In a way it's better to get a PG-13 than a PG for certain movies," Spielberg said With no middle-ground between PG and R, the ratings board of the 1980s frequently wrestled with the right way to classify movies that should and should not be viewed by children Jack Valenti, the longtime MPAA head who recently announced his retirement, told the AP that the heart scene was the catalyst The debate might have faded there if not for "Gremlins," which came out two weeks later Gremlins DVD: Compare Prices Compare prices from over 30,000 stores com Gremlins - Mysimon Gremlins on mySimon As Steven Spielberg told The Associated Press recently, PG-13 puts "hot sauce" on a movie in the viewer's mind mysimon |
