Actually i'm not ranting at all. I'm simply saying if he has to abide disneys rules, then the movie will suck.
Did i trigger you? Lol.

I think the prequels are boring as phuck.

As reviewer wrote... Anakin turns from the light to the dark side of the force in about as much time as it will take you to finish this sentence.

Here is the review...

http://www.thebestpageintheuniverse....cgi?u=episode3

Anakin after helping to kill a Jedi (who was about to execute someone without trial): "What have done?!"

Palpatine: "Now, I want you to pledge allegiance to the dark side, and go and kill a bunch of children."

Anakin: "Sure, no problem."

Lol was just going to say this too. Lucas had his share of criticism for Episodes 1-3 (Little Anakin too cute, Jar jar too annoying, teenage Anakin too emo and can't act, etc.). They should just end the franchise before they make it worse. Although the only Star Wars movie that would interest me would be a standalone movie focusing on Palpatine's history (his beginnings, sith training, how he got started in politics, etc.)

Pretty incredible that two entire trilogies have been essentially disposable trash.

Just need to hire the best director they can get and let them start from scratch and carry out their vision. Come up with a few memorable characters, have an actual fleshed out storyline that holds up to things like logic and common f cking sense.

Really should not be difficult. Yet they hired JJ Moron so they'll probably f ck it up again.

Damn son, you went in hard.

In literature there is a distinction between Hard Sci Fi (A lot of explanation about science, tech, and social systems) and Soft Sci Fi (Very little explanation, focus is on characters and narrative)... I agree that it was probably much better for Lucas to stick to Soft Sci Fi.

Interstellar is an example of a Hard Sci Fi movie.

I LOLed @ the banned for life statement.

Budget contraints actually stopped some of his dumber ideas & forced much of the creativity in A New Hope. He disappeared up his own ass with CGI & endless money imo.

Lucas' ego & status would ensure he can't be held back from his dumber ideas anymore. He's done. Put in Favreau or Nolan. Srs. Lucas will create garbage again.

Lucas is not a great director, but he himself has said that. He doesn't like doing it. He shopped around for directors to do the prequels but no one wanted the burden. They all said he should do it himself. His reputation at that time far exceeded his actual ability and no one had the balls to challenge all the terrible decisions he made while making the prequals. He is a great in a big picture and story role, but he needs people around to edit and cut his bad ideas from the good ideas. Disney would be wise to bring him on to help write the story and produce, then get more talented people to create the actual screenplay and direct. Anything would be better than the creatively bankrupt sequel trilogy.

LOL! Huge if true.

Imagine spending $4 billion to buy Star Wars from George Lucas and then being so incompetent that you have to hire him back to fix it...




...also imagine thinking that George Lucas is going to fix anything

Who the fuk makes the decisions at Disney?

Could someone please explain to me why star wars movies are set “...a long time ago.”

It's also set in a galaxy, far, far away.

It would be futuristic to us on earth, but in another galaxy life may have began sooner and evolved quicker.

LMAO, just when you think they can't get any worse


no-one in any Lucas department could say no to George, no matter how retarded his ideas were. Hopefully Disney has a veto and is only letting him be an 'ideas guy' at best.


They should just put the MCU team on the franchise but it's too late to save.

His ideas are only going to be veto'd when they're not woke enough...

They're only bringing him on to validate woke ideas. He's just social licensing.

It's like trying to replace a cancer diagnosis with AIDs.

Did people forget how bad the prequels were? The new trilogy was sh!t, but Lucas isn't the solution. They need to bring in people who actually have a vision and passion for the brand. JJ Abrams is one of the most overrated filmmakers working today. Fire the stupid b!tch in charge of Star Wars. Stop with the social justice bs.

brah, Jar Jar is AMAZING compared to any new character in the Disney trilogy. dead ass serious. He goes from bumbling fool to galactic senator. Jar Jar has more character development than a single one of these new characters

In comparison, the prequels were amazing. It actually had a great story and characters in general. It also had that Lucas touch that is just missing with Disney
