The one that comes to mind for me there is Army of Darkness. Army of Darkness came out in 1992 and is rated R. Why? Its content is similar to a lot of PG-13 movies, including Indiana Jones and the Last Crusade, which came out 3 years earlier. Army of Darkness is appropriate for the same audience as Indiana Jones. It's rated R because it's a sequel to Evil Dead.

Saving Private Ryan features some pretty realistic scenes of combat wounds. Not 10 minutes in, we get a shot of a man's guts hanging out of his torso while he's calling for his mama. That movie came out in 1998 and is rated R. Showgirls came out in 1995, and is rated NC-17 because it's a skinemax movie. This isn't an original thought by any means, but...are those backwards? Why are we more comfortable showing children war than sex?
