There is *no* way Star Wars was anywhere near a G rating, with or without the bodies. I think you are confusing SW with ET, where Lucas added the "penis breath" line to get a PG rating, which was automatic for such language.


actually, Lucas admits to this in "Skywalking," the biography written by Tom Pollock. Getting a G rating WAS a worry at the time. Also, Lucas didn't add "penis breath" to E.T. because Lucas didn't direct E.T, Spielberg did. And I don't think the line was added, it was just part of the script from the beginning, left in because Spielberg liked the authenticity of it--it's how middle schoolers talk.
