Airplane was released in 1980, before the PG-13 rating existed. I’m not sure how the film would be rated today, but I’d wager it would not hit PG standards without significant edits.
Ski Patrol, Police Academy 2, and Airplane the list goes on for 80s movies with a single brief topless shot.
I’d argue the self-aware humor of Airplane was really calling out stereotypes like the one pictured, and defusing tensions with humor. Now Revenge of the Nerds, there’s a problematic movie.
how about the topless shot halfway through this PG movie?! it feels like there is a lot of content they would never achieve that rating with today.
Frankly a plain topless shot is not in my opinion grounds for anything heavier than a PG rating
Completely agree with you. If a man can show his nipples and it’s fine, why can’t women. It is sexism and misogyny.
Come to Canada. We made it legal for women to be topless in public based on that exact logic.
Solution: Photoshop man nipples on women breasts. Nobody can get offended now!
Oh someone will still be offended, because they didnt get to see woman boobs

When rated R movies were RATED TITTY FUCKING R.

Basically the TV edit. They cut out the boobs but left the blowjob gag.
I think you can still maintain a PG-13 rating as long as the boobs shown are not directly sexualized and they only appear in one shot or scene.
Titanic and Across the Universe are two examples.
That preceded the PG-13 rating.
PG movies back then had more swearing and brief nudity like that scene in airplane was fairly common.
Stuff like that is why PG-13 came about. American parents didn’t like it when their children saw two frames of boobs in a movie.
