George Lucas is an expert on fantasy.

Looks like old “tin ear” Lucas isn’t content with having destroyed all his own properties, now he wants to destroy everyone else’s.

I believe the line was “You may never find a more wretched hive of scum and villainy” but maybe Lucas changed it while making Greedo shoot first.

This from a guy who chose the catatonic Ewan McGregor and the gooey-faced Natalie Portman as his lead characters in his colossal snoozer Episode 1.

No thanks, George.

Those pics and his demeanor really speak for themselves, don’t they?

You’re may be right, I was quoting from memory which has cobwebs and rust.

As soon as I saw the Ewoks in "Return of the Jedi", I knew they were meant to represent something evil but that the movie makers considered good.

Many years later, Lucas mentioned they were meant to represent the Viet Cong.

They were originally supposed to be Wookies and the whole fight taking place on Kashyyyk. It was supposed to be a fight between technologically backwards Wookies vs Imperial might.

His kids thought something more like a teddybear would appeal to them. Hence those stupid ass Ewoks.

THX1138 was Lucas' only "real" film. One he now seems bent on recreating by joining forces with those who want to push the buttons and prescribe the drugs to a highly controlled populace.

"We have a hero in the making back in the United States today because we have a new candidate for president of the United States, Barack Obama," Lucas said when asked who his childhood heroes were.

Hero? Because hes a Mocha Negro? Now you know why the last 3 (soon to be 4) Star Wars movies sucked!

The Star Wars movies teach us a foreboding lesson—evil emperors start out as senators

Obama, "for all of us that have dreams and hope, is a hero," Lucas said.

Yep, the Farce is strong in that one...

Half of episode 6. They didn’t ruin the whole thing.
