Should be PG13.

Yes. I do.

I got the movie poster hanging up in my room and it has PG-13 printed on it with the credits.

The tone of this movie could be a G rated film. Spaceballs is an extremely light and easy going film.


You can read it?! Nah, I was just clearing my throat.

On today's standards, yes. It was different back then. You realize Jaws was also rated PG right ?

This was back in the day when you could have an F-word in a PG movie, even though the PG-13 rating existed. Standards changed, and so did the rating eventually.

Mirror inspector is a job I could really see myself doing.

Who cares about the ratings? Spiderman was rated PG-13 and the movie theater was full of 4-year olds. My son was 3 and a half at the time and he loved it. I found it rather boring, but not half as stupid as the Power Rangers that he watched on the Disney Channel at the time. The Star Wars movies had their turn when my son turned 7, and that's when I threw Spaceballs into the mix, because six boring Star Wars movies would have been unbearable without Mel Brooks to make fun of them. Besides, SpongeBob has more sexual innuendos in one episode than this entire movie; as for the f... word, unless someone figures out how to have dads rated PG 13, what difference does it make? When The Amazing Spiderman - another PG 13 movie - came out in 2012, my son was already 11 and refused to see it: "It's for babies!" Apparently, his popularity status in school would have been destroyed if anybody saw him enter the movie theater to see a Spiderman movie. That's for pre-K. Big fifth graders went to The Dark Knight Rises, and I so wish Mel Brooks had made a Batman movie!
