The PG-13 rating has existed since 1984. Red Dawn was the first PG-13 film. It was created in response to Gremlins, Poltergeist, and Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom being to dark and violent for the PG rating, but not high enough for the PG-13 rating. Unfortunately, most 80s films still got away with the PG rating for content that would get the PG-13 Rating today, including Roger Rabbit. | The PG-13 rating has existed since 1984.
