I'll say again, it wasn't until ROTJ that we started seeing stuff that was clearly put in for kids, and to explicitly market stuff to kids. The stuff in ANH and ESB was just stuff kids happened to like. But you don't become the phenomenon Star Wars became in 1977 by making "a kids movie."

I don't know about you but when I was a kid watching these movies my parents or any of the other adults around in my life cared one lick about any of them.
