Not at all what I'm suggesting. I agree that there are elements intended for everyone, 100%.

I was merely paraphrasing George Lucas himself, who claims that he imagined, from the beginning, his ideal audience -- the reason HE claims he made the movies -- was young boys and girls on the cusp of adulthood. He wanted to make moral tales to help those kids identify, think about, and deal with some of the larger issues they would one day face as adults. As a result, yes, there are plenty of themes for adults that are beyond young children. They aren't merely (as LV would say) a bunch of kids movies. I don't think anyone is saying that.
you know damn well i wouldnt say theyre kids movies!!!!!
