You have silly robots bantering with each other while you have scenes in the first Star Wars movie where 2 eldery people are completely charred to the death or an entire planet obliterated but in both cases, as in the prequels, the real violence is not shown. The whole debate about the target audience is ridiculous, Batman The Dark Knight is PG13, there’s a lot of problems in the prequels to die on that hill.
Also “I have the high ground” is one of the dumbest things in any movie.
That’s a more valid point.
Edit: I completely forgot about Ewoks winning against the empire while you have a slavery scene with Jabba in episode 6.
Destroying a planet is a comic book kind of evil. Massacring some school children is real life evil.
Luke’s aunt and uncle were killed by Stormtroopers… guys you’re not supposed to sympathize with. Are we not supposed to be sympathetic towards Anakin? Is he supposed to be a generic bad guy with very little depth like a Stormtrooper or Jabba?

At that point he is a villain, the scene exists to be impactful, there’s no turning back for our Hero at that point, he’s fallen.
And again my problem is how fast the guy go from I have doubts about the Jedis to Villain, that’s shit. Thanks to the Clone Wars that’s fixed
