And low and behold a new rating was created to make a happy medium between the two, The PG-13 rating!!! (cue angles halleluiah choir).
The movie that prompted it's creation was Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom, which was rated PG but the ratings board felt it was a little heavy for a PG movie but not quite an R. Little bit of movies rating systems trivia, the PG-13 rating did not exist till around 1984/85. I'll have to check but I think it was actually the whole ratings system that was created in 69 so most movies before then weren't properly rated. actually it was made in 68 so the R rating didn't exist then either. Yes I know that last part was kind of random The PG-13 rating didn't exist when that movie was made. As long as a comic has enough action and is relatively tame in it's visuals any comic can be for kids, this doesn't mean intended for kids mind you just that it can be consumed by both normal reader and kid without long term mental scarring.I'm assuming none of that made sense.why am I posting at 3:15 said: I do and I'm "not of age", but I'm smart enough to get what is going on, which is why I think movies like 2001: A space Odyssey should be rated pg13 or R instead of G. Now for the comic example, Batman Hush, has enough action and barely any gore or visually disturbing things to be accessible to kids. I only use that as an example because I saw a kid enjoy the Dark Knight and basically treat the psychological horror as nothing. I'm about to use a movie as an example so don't lacerate me okay? The Dark Knight is insanely accessible to kids, the joker isn't going to give them nightmares and no one ever dies in a visceral way.
In my opinion most comics in general now a days are not aimed at children.accessible to children on the other hand is a whole new ball game. One such issue has a large flashback to Tony Stark's trips to AA, which was written excellently in my own opinion, just because there isn't mass amounts of gore or serial killers or raping happening doesn't discount something from being adult. A story about Tony Stark talking about cups of coffee is not meant for kids and in comparison to some more action packed comics would bore kids to death. Have you read some of the recent Invincible Iron Man, before marvel started Fear Itself, the comic deals with issues that would seem much more mundane to children.
