Some thing I just thought of. Some one may have already thought of it but I am not a kid nor do I have kids so I did not think of it. I was watching a video of a kid reacting to “I am your father”. The description said the kid had seen I, II, Clone wars Series, IV, V, VI, rebels. So he skipped Ep III. Now I,II,IV,V, and VI are all PG. EP III is PG13. Technically a kid should not see EP III until they are older. I wonder if G.L. thought of this?

Yeah i really really don’t think they got a PG-13 rating as a way to save the “I am your father” reveal. In fact, the reveal is probably broken for anyone growing up surounded by pop-culture, as the references to star wars are everywhere. I lent my blu-rays to a coworker who showed his son the OT for the first time, and the reveal was not a shock to his son “Dad, everyone knows Darth Vader is Luke’s father…” is the response he got. :p
