Not to downplay the events of GOF, but couldn't things be done in a 
very suggestive yet restrained manner? If a character dies, would 
that automatically make it a PG-13 (or European equivalent)? I 
realize the graveyard scene is harrowing but again, couldn't it be 
done in such a way as to suggest suspense and fear without being 
overt? JKR's story is very good at that, building the suspense and 
suggesting things but not going into gory detail. If it must be PG-
13, it must. You can not argue with the events or water them down.
