      They do have a point. Just look at what happened to Little Anie.

          In any case on Ebert and Roeper they said the movie really shouldn't be PG-13 anyways. There's no nudity, no bad language, no drug use. Just some cartoonish violence.
          I never thought about it, but you're (or Ebert/Roeper) right.

          Given Lucas's power, he probably lobbied for the higher rating as to give the movie an aura of "edginess" that, frankly, it didn't have.

          Another example of marketing triumphing over common sense. A common failing in the SW universe.

            I know a lot of pre-schoolers who are more violent than anything that George Lucas could dream up.

                I do laugh at the 83 percent, however...I wonder what numbers the Dove Foundation had on hand to call...
                I had to laugh at the 83 percent as well... makes you wonder... they probably could have gotten 83 percent of those same people to agree that the earth is flat

                  And the other 17% refused to answer, having recognized the rather obvious trick question.
