Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom was released in 1984 as the second installment of the Indiana Jones movie franchise. The movie featured Indiana Jones, played by Harrison Ford, and two new companions - Willie Scott and Short Round - as they attempt to take back a stolen sacred stone for a small village. Due to the violence that was featured in the film, director Steven Spielberg had to negotiate with the MPAA to create a new rating for the film that was less than R rating, but higher than PG, and so, PG-13 was created.
