It's for children, yes, and it can also a good time for adults as long as the adults don't get utterly absorbed into it.

For sure. I mean it's "all ages" entertainment. Who doesn't like seeing Chewbacca throw around some space nazis. But people take it too far. I feel bad for the kid who played Anakin. The star wars nerds really raked him over the coals and just... that poor boy never deserved that hate.

Ahmed Best got decades of homophobic and racist hate vomited his way after Jar Jar made it to the big screens.
