there is one guy's butt in it but it is a very brief scene. I doubt that you would mind it.
shareBrief nudity in PG-13 usually means you'll see some man ass.
God DAMN America.
Agreed...what happened to the days when PG movies(let alone PG-13) could show breasts? i.e. Airplane!
shareAlot of movies were PG in the time of Airplane. It's hard to explain. For example: The Poseidon Adventure was PG but it had a bit of cussing and a lot of dead bodies that were killed by fire or drowning. They looked gruesome. So I don't know why the ratings were lower back then?
God DAMN America.
it probably came out before pg 13, which was created after gremlins came out.
shareYeah TPA and Airplane were 70's movies. Didn't Gremlins come out in the 80's or 90's?
I'm naming my future son after Atton of KotOR II. :]
well airplane was in the early 80s and gremlins was somewhere around 84/85, i think pg 13 was invented either for indiana jones temple of doom or goonies, which had the kids saying the less friendly version of poop (why don't kids ever cuss on film anymore? i miss that)
but then again, i'm not so sure, lol - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3PSVP9LuRhU
The first widely distributed PG-13 movie was Red Dawn (1984), followed by Dreamscape (1984), and The Flamingo Kid (1984), although The Flamingo Kid was the first film so rated by the board.
In 1984, explicit violence in the PG-rated films Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom and Gremlins were "the straws that broke the parents' backs".
Actually, PG-13 was created specifically to keep "Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom" from getting an "R" rating in 1984. The MPAA viewed the violence in the film to be a bit too intense to fall intot he category of "PG" and were, for a moment, considering giving it the dreaded "R" rating. Steven Spielberg and Paramount petitioned the MPAA to rethink it and as a compromise, they instituted the "PG-13" rating.
The rest is history.
Since then, society has become a lot more pussified and politically correct.
Thus, suddenly, a few bad words or a nipple were deemed pure evil that children couldn't handle.
First PG-13 movie was Indiana Jones & the Temple of Doom. Before that there was only the PG rating and that covered everything that wasn't rated R, so basically by today's standards anything that would be PG or PG-13. This is the reason many late 70 and early 80's movies that are PG may be more extreme that today's just PG rated movies.
shareThe first movie to be rated PG-13 was Red Dawn, which the rating was created for. Several movies were then rated PG-13 immediately after, such as TOD.
Although then Temple of Doom was released in theatres two or three months earlier than Red Dawn. (As a side note, IMDB lists TOD as being rated PG)
Perhaps I'm splitting hairs, but hell. Just in case you're ever on Jeopardy! and need to know the correct answer...there it is.
The way I remember it, the violence in "Temple of Doom" and "Gremlins" lead to the creation of PG-13. The first movie to be rated PG-13 by the ratings board was "Flamingo Kid." The first movie to be released with a PG-13 rating was "Red Dawn." Keep that in mind for "Jeopardy."
shareRemember it, or looked it up on Wikipedia?
You are correct in that Flamingo Kid was the first movie actually rated PG-13, although it was the third film to be released theatrically with that rating. Which also proves just how long it sat on the shelves before being released (God, I wonder why...)

p-13 movies originated after steven speilbergh lobbied for a rating system in between PG and R. raiders of the lost ark was given an R rating because of the main bad guys head blowing up at the end of the movie. so, reluctantly, speilbergh put flames over the explosion to bring it back down to PG. he immediately pushed for a PG-13 rating.
shareI Second that

Yeah the parents that scream and complain about their kids seeing nudity in a movie are the ones that let their thirteen year-olds watch movies like Saw and not think twice.
shareNo the prime example is Space Balls...PG with an F Bomb!!!!
shareBettle Juice was rated PG and had an F in there as well. I personally found that MUCH MUCH MUCH less disturbing (didn't find it disturbing at all really) than seeing a mans heart ripped from his chest in Temple of Doom.
Disgusting over the top violence is a-okay, bad words and the human body are evil. Riiiiiiiight. God Bless America. ;)
I find it equally remarkable that when movies like Airplane are PG, movies like Sleepy Hollow, that have no cussing and the level of gore is fairly minor (exaggerated, but minor) are rated R.
That's really baked my noodle for a while.
effin American effin prudes! (OP being a prime example!!). That's what happened
shareGod DAMN you! Go live in another country and *beep* off!
shareIt's not "brief nudity." It's "partial nudity." That's pretty much what they say in every one of these PG-13 movies where they show a guy's ass to get a laugh. Keep that in your memory for future reference.

I think the nudity is part of the comedy touch of it, it's done pretty nicely not adult oriented or anything of that nature hence the PG 13And it's a pretty funny scene if I say so myselfSource: http://moviereviews.noskram.com/2009/09/movie-reviews-for-fired-up
