exactly, GL is very good at setting up shots so he can keep his PG ratings. It may kill the "realism" (like in Jedi, those thugs of Jabba's should have been getting sliced from shoulder to hip the way Luke was swinging, but I have to accept that they can't show that). Look at how they handled the tuskens, you clearly got the idea that Anakin butchered an entire tribe of people, but we didn't have to see it. Although, him and Padme's chearfull banter in the ship afterword sort of killed the mood but oh well.
Anakin takes out the first 2 tuskens that we saw, then cuts down the one that rushes him, which we basically saw, and then kills those other tuskens (including females) behind that one, many of the warriors rush him and are quickly cut down or thrown to the side with the force. He then notices the women and children flee into one slightly larger hut, so he uses the force to lift a bunch of boulders, dropping them, crushing the tent and everyone in it.
