George Lucas says Star Wars is for 12 years Wars Celebration 2017

Star Wars Celebration 2017 Orlando 40 Years of Star Wars Panel The idea was simply to do a high adventure film that I enjoyed when I was a kid. With meaningful psychological themes. It s a film for 12 years olds. You are about to enter the real world. You are 12 years old. You are moving away from your parents and being their central focus. You are probably scared. You don t know what s going to happen. And here s a little idea of some of things you could pay attention to. Friendships, honesty, and trust, and doing the right thing. Living on the light side. Avoiding the dark side. Those are thing that it were meant to do. In the real world, the critics, certain fans they are not very kind. But when you see these little kids, when you see the look on their faces, what it means to them, it forgives everything. I was one of those kids. I just want to have this opportunity now to say thank you sincerely for all of the opportunities you ve given me. And for making that small boy s wish come true.
