Classic Scene - BIG

I don't know about the rest of you, but when I saw this in 8th grade I wanted to do this too!


Despite having a PG rating, the movie contains the word "Fu**" This is the last known PG movie with the "f" word in it.

Wow, that's interesting. I didn't know that about the F-bomb nashbar. It sort of goes against the idea that societies get more and more liberal over time.

It's funny because in some ways the US seems more conservative ... and then on TNT you see an ad for "Girls Gone Wild Super Costa Rica Lesbian Edition" during dinner.

Yeah here is the actual details of the PG13 rating.

For example Big, Beetlejuice, and Nothing in Common were three late 1980s widespread PG releases that contained "Fu**" in their dialogue. The ratings board reacted quickly to parental protests, and over the next couple of years, the number of PG-13 films finally outnumbered the number of PG releases, as standards were tightened for PG classification. Around the turn of that decade, standards were also tightened for PG-13 films, at least for violence, as the ratings board became more likely to issue an R rating for violence that involved bloodshed and/or the slaying of policemen. Except for a brief reversal in 1994, the number of PG-13 films has outnumbered the number of PG films ever since, and the proportion of R-rated films (starting with the boom of home video product in the late 80s) has generally increased at the expense of unrestricted films.
