johnnygoging: it's not that lucas was a shallow business man. he was just a better business man than director.

and in fact, it was even so much that he was such a talent businessman, because why did Lucasarts have so many problems for so long? it was just that lucas had a very prominent fiscal prudence streak. a lot of americans pick this up. or used to anyway. I don't know whatever. anyway

I don't think ROTJ was bad. now people just wanna lucas all over lucas.

jar jar wasn't as bad as people make him out to be.

darthspudius: Problem with Jar Jar is over exposure. Waaaay too much of him. I still think The Phantom Menace is a very good movie despite the issues.
well I wouldn't say it's a very good movie. but I do think it was an OK movie and easily the best of the prequels.

Personally I think with some minor cuts, the movies would be a lot better. Shorten little scenes like the "no its because im in love with you". There are good movies in there.

Mr.Caine: Well Lucas was already turning out be a shallow business man even then. It's no coincidence he had nothing to do with the best SW movie...
Come again?

Oh well, I guess you must be referring to Spaceballs.

Breja: I'd say he used to be more a director than a business man once, and with time that started changing...
Exactly, as evidenced by the discrepancy between his present and younger self:
'The Greatest Speech Against the Special Edition was from George Lucas'.

Emob78: It's called 'Action Movie Face', made famous in other large budget movies by the likes of Tom Cruise, Leo Dicaprio, Christian Bale, and Will Smith. Look confused, astonished, crank up the set fans to get that air blowing, and for crying out loud will someone please get Mr. Damon another latte?
I brought it up talking to my friend, and I like hi explenation better- he's the first stormtrooper to ever take of the helmet, and it's the first time he can actually SEE things clearly, and aim at stuff.

He was seduced by the dark side of the Cash. He ceased to be George Lucas and became Darth Jar-Jar. When that happened, the good man who was the creator of Star Wars was destroyed. He's more businessman now than director. Twisted and evil.

Yeah, he used to have principles - sort of like GOG. ;)

Snap, I saw the first few episodes of Rebels and really liked it, then got really busy and forgot to watch it. Sounds like I need to catch up.

I have to admit, I was very excited to see the Lone Ranger when it was released. When I saw it, I was very disappointed. The movie was a flop. I do not wish to be disappointed a second time. I think I will pass on this one.

Hopefully, for all the fans that are excited about this movie, and there are lots of them, it will live up to everyone's expectations.

You should, the first season gets much, much better towards the end. Honestly, it gave me way more reasons to be optimistic about Disney's Star Wars than anything I've seen from Episode VII so far. The second season is of to a somewhat slower start after the major oopmh of the first season finale, but I hope it will pick up soon enough.

Selling Starwars for $4 billion and then donating the entire sum to charity was obviously just a ploy to get us to lower our guards. Soon he’ll strike.

Donating that 4 billion was in exchange for political fundraising. We may be looking at Emperor... er, I meant President George Lucas one day. Then all of our problems will be solved by CGI.

Obviously, I was just making fun, paraphrasing Obi-Wan in context of Lucas' 180 turn on altering movies. Honestly, I don't hate Lucas, like many seem to. I hate the prequels, I hate the new editions of the original trilogy, but I don't hate him, and certainly don't really consider him "evil". At most I fingd it funny how he spent years systematically destroying his greatest creation, but the only thing I really hold against him is holding the original cut of the orignal trilogy out of circulation. If I could just go to a store and easily buy the theatrical cut of episodes IV-VI I would not care one bit what shit he pulled off in the new editions. There could be a scene of Vader and Obi-Wan having a dance-off for all I care, as long as it wasn't pushed as "the only proper version, as it was always meant to be, watch this and like it or no SW for you!"
