I have said my comments based on knowing my topic of Lucas's biography and having read several press interviews during his full career. I have seen ALL the SW episodes and I am a science fiction fan of all genres. I am merely giving you my opinion based on years of film knowledge and experience.

Doing so, as you have done, is very counterproductive to your post. Your mileage may differ.
