Lucas wrote this story almost 3 decades ago. Only the Bush haters see hate Bush in this movie.
You're wrong. He did not write this story until recently. The backstory was very vague until now.
And he certainly didn't write his cheap shots 3 decades ago.
Anyone who DOESN'T see Bush hating in this is blind.
And anyone who gives their money to this jack@ss should be ashamed!
Anyone can boycott what is easy. True protest is when you have to give up something you want. And believe me, I want to see this.
we are primarily upset by Lucas's words at Cannes...
What is it about "I didn't think it was going to get quite this close," he said of the parallels between the Nixon era and the current Bush presidency, which has been sacrificing freedoms in the interests of national security. "It is just one of those re-occurring things." that you missed?
Lucas is certain to get some heat for his comments...USA Today notes how fans are turned off when politics creep into film.
