Revenge of the Sith Officially Rated PG-13

Posted by Zonk on from the power-of-the-dark-side dept.

Bobert@flixnjoystix.com writes "On May 19th, fans of all ages will see the final installment of the Star Wars saga with Revenge of the Sith. However, for the first time ever a Star Wars film will be officially rated PG-13. Over the weekend the Daily Herald newspaper confirmed that George Lucas' conclusion to his nearly 30 year epic Space Opera received a PG-13 rating from the Motion Picture Association of America. The MPAA is expected to release an official statement or press release sometime this week." This confirms the rumor we reported on back in March.

      The movie will still suck no matter what the rating.

      Lucas needs to hand over the reins to someone with a clue.

    Why on earth are you calling it a "Space Opera". Call the movie a motion picture if you must, but not a "Space Opera" . It's got nothing to do with the musical art of opera and making a false association won't help the chances of this movie being a success.

    I seem to recall that was exactly what that NYC fireman said out loud when a jet airpliner smacked into one of the Twin Towers...
