C-3PO AND R2-D2 GO PG-13

By Rebecca Winters

What would Yoda think? The next--and final--Star Wars movie will achieve a franchise first, according to George Lucas: a PG-13 rating. "I don't think I would take a 5- or a 6-year-old to this," the series creator told CBS's 60 Minutes of Star Wars: Episode III--Revenge of the Sith, opening May 19. In Sith, Anakin Skywalker, played by HAYDEN CHRISTENSEN, transforms into Darth Vader in an especially dark scene. Of course, since most Star Wars fans are actually 12-year-olds trapped in the bodies of thirtysomethings, they should have no trouble getting into the theater.
