Did you hear that Lucas doesn't care if he gets a PG-13 rating from the MPAA anymore? He says nothing is gonna defoul his vision of Episode III, and he finally realizes that fans will still watch it because PG-13 is nothing now. The only reason even R would give him trouble is cause kids under 17 couldn't go without a parent, if they could, I bet he'd make it R, cause most kids (or at least the smart ones) don't get completely demoralized by watching a Rated R movie. One of the first movies I saw was T2, and I'm not goin around killing people. I think its great to have a PG-13 Ep III and see some real gritty fighting.

PG-13 is: under 13 year-old's having parental supervision yeah??
I hope he doesn't hold back too much. I mean he didn't REALLY hold back in Ep2, I mean Anakin kills all those Tusken Raiders. I know that's not really graphic or whatever but it is pretty violent.
Basically, I just hope he doesn't hold back on the turning thing.
I think he could get off easily with having almost R violence in PG-13, cause I mean, he got decapitations in PG, hopefully he can throw a credit cookie at the end with Portman (w/o the pregnant suit) nude, hahaha

I don't know about the States, but if in the UK they can give T3 a 12 when someone gets punched through the stomach, they can pass Star Wars for anyone...

I still think that Star Wars EpIII will be PG, considering all the previous movies are all PG. Sure, GL will be able to achieve or get allowed a little more graphic detail in PG-13, but i cant possibly see that happen, but, lets just keep out fingers crossed.
Its his last one ever, I'm sure he's sticking to his original idea. And this is the most important one out of the 6, so if I were him I wouldn't change it at all. I'd make it x amount of hours, rated whatever, anything.

there are a lot of young star wars fans out there, so i am sure it will receive a pg 13 rating.
