Episode Synopsis

Star Wars has existed for almost 50 years. The age range for the fandom is wide at this point. So with fans of all ages nowadays, who is Star Wars intended for? It's always been for kids apparently, but should the focus be on kids today now that many fans are older and would like to see more mature content? I would also argue that there's many scenes that are pretty rough for kids to watch and there's lore elements that are complex and hard to understand. I think those that create content for the franchise need to recognize just how old a large part of the fandom is now.
