Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith

I went to see the new Star Wars movie on opening night at a local theater here in Lansing. Growing up I always loved Star Wars. The prequel movies were OK, Clones being the best of the two I felt, but this one I found really disturbing and haunting. Two scenes that stand out in my mind is where the scene implies the main character kills a group of children. The next one is where the main character is burned alive by lava. I was really bothered by that and just had a sick feel the whole next day from it. I have to admit that it's turned me off from the whole Star Wars thing. I can see why it was rated PG-13, I certainly don't think any children should go to it and I wouldn't recommend it to any adults either. Frankly I'm a little ashamed that I went to it at all.
