The first PG-13 movie I watched was IJ Crystal Skull. I was 13. I don’t remember when I watched my first R rated movie, but it was a decent amount of time later, but before I was 17.

I did watch plenty of those borderline PG-13 movies though like Clue and the other Indiana Jones movies, just off the top of my head.

Edit: almost forgot Temple of Doom is PG-13, so that would actually be the first one. I was probably 10 but I don’t remember exactly

Temple of Doom is PG. It, along with the Spielberg produced Gremlins, was so intense and violent (take a wild guess which scene people brought up) Spielberg proposed the PG-13 to the MPAA, as Temple of Doom and Gremlins were too strong for a PG but too light for an R. They're both PG.

Oh. I did know that, but I assumed it meant that Temple of Doom was PG-13. Didn’t realize that change came after. Thanks!
