George Lucas *is* Star Wars. It is his entire character, beliefs and taste expressed in a way that only *he* could have done. He is its soul. Without him, Star Wars is just another undercooked sci-fi setting that devolves into irrelevant, garbage, gay lore shit for fat obese retarded nerds, who argue about lightsaber forms and force abilities. Anybody other than Lucas trying to make Star Wars is like trying to draw a self-portrait of somebody else—it just doesn't work. It is an auteur project that just happened to become insanely popular, and without the auteur it loses its soul, character and purpose. The problem is that Star Wars fags view Star Wars as an IP, as a franchise. They would rather argue about made up starship specifications or some gay shit from some novels. They are cinematically and culturally illiterate.

>>215606842
Case in point. It has nothing of George's character and quirks, hence it lacks the "feel" and "soul" of Star Wars. It was just Samurai Jack with Star Wars characters, because that's what Genndy knows. He is not George Lucas. Now The Clone Wars that George Lucas made, obviously, is Star Wars to its core: retro Flash Gordon/Thunderbirds serial, packed with Lucas' quirks and personality to the brim, going all the way back to THX 1138 and American Graffiti.

The reason why the Lucas saga is good and full of SOVL its because he was just a nerd who wanted to create his own scifi/fantasy world. He took inspiration from works he enjoyed, like Flash Gordon, Kurosawa samurai movies, westerns and Dune

Disney SW doesn't work because it's basically just Marvelslop with SW costumes

>sold everything for less than it's worth to Disney s a giant "fuck you" to his own fans who got tired of him altering the original SW trilogy

Fuck you George. You were the childhood hero, but you lived long enough to become the villain. I feel no sympathy for your coffee-fetcher taking over your company and dragging it down into the toilet for her own woke bullshit. So sit there and brood alone while your racist Black wife spends away your fortunes on her racist Black causes like BLM.

And the thing is you can always call your buddy Steven and come up with something new to put the nay-sayers in their place, but you'd rather sit there brooding.

I wouldn't say that he was a "nerd" in a way that you think, as in creating a setting wasn't his primary goal. He was interested in making a modern myth for young people in an age of cynicism and depression in the wake of Vietnam war and "adult" movies, that is presented through fantasy in space, in order for it to be fresh and entertaining. He was a cinematic nerd, a mythology, history, religion and anthropology nerd, and that is where his influences and interests were most dominant, and that is what gave the real Star Wars its character, personality and soul. Star Wars that is not made by him, all the extended shit and Disney shit, inevitably cannibalizes itself - it is inspired by Star Wars and tries to replicate Star Wars - and it just becomes a bunch of convoluted made up lore shit with no real meaning other than "geeks" circlejerking it and being proud that they know all 15 lightsaber forms or something.

>>215607180
I think Disney SW is responsible for the rise in right wing sympathies. Kylo was banished for having extreme power and Rey isn’t. Kylo and Darth Vader appearances make the dark side look good. Anakin in AOTC and RotS is cool, it’s obvious he’s a piece of crap by the end and gets sliced and burnt unforgettabley. Kylo and Rey are both trained by Luke who is blamed for what they did by Yoda, who throws out his Jedi teachings. Overall this makes the Jedi uncool. It makes falling in love with a tragic character look cool, which is the opposite of Padme. Rey and Padme have more in common than Luke & Rey. Overall this just doesn’t work and is unsettling. It subverts the previous movies. It can’t be continued.

There is no John Williams without Lucas and his vision. You probably don't know that Lucas worked very closely with Williams, and the content of the movies, its drama, its themes, the vision of the director — all of it defines the music. Music supports all of those things, and those things need to be good for music to be good. John Williams also scored Disney's sequels. And, just like the movies themselves, his score was bland, forgettable shit.
>>
>>215608249
You forgot American Grafitti

And the prequels, while flawed, have undeniable value. You can be mad that they weren't more collaborative, like the OT, but the apoplectic hatred has faded away. We've seen what pandering, visionless Star Wars looks like now, and it was GRIM

I’m sorry. George, I am so, so, sorry. I wish I could take back all the horrible things I said about you and your films. I just never understood how bad we really could have had it. I know it’s too late for apologies now. I know it’ll never undo the damage to you or your films reputation. I know it can never undo the hurt it’s caused you or the Star Wars franchise. And I know that the regret of my actions isn’t a result of self-introspection and empathy, but rather my own selfishness. But I just want to tell you I’m sorry, I was wrong. I would do anything to go back in time and talk sense to me and all the other people who wronged you. But I know I can’t do that, all I can do is say I’m sorry. I don’t expect you to forgive me, but you should at least know we were all wrong. You were right, and for that I am truly sorry.

American Graffiti is kino and to listen to his directors commentary is fascinating. His use of music was revolutionary at the time.
Lucas is a great filmmaker but he is not of a certain tribe which means he has always had a media machine against him, much like Coppola

>>215608238
George, I owe you an apology. I’m truly sorry for the things I said about you and your films. After seeing the state of Star Wars today, I realize how unfair and shortsighted my words were. I took for granted what you created and failed to appreciate the vision, effort, and imagination behind it.

I understand now how much worse things could have been. My criticisms came from frustration and selfishness, not from genuine understanding. It was easier to tear something down than to see what made it special in the first place. I was wrong.

I know no apology can undo the hurt I’ve caused, nor can it remove the fuel from the fire I’ve added, but I want you to know that many of us see things differently now. You were right to take risks, to tell your story your way, and to expand the galaxy you built. I was wrong to doubt that.

I don’t expect forgiveness, for you to know that I recognize the mistake, and I’m deeply sorry for it. I hope you can find some peace, some solace in the fact that you were right all along. Thank you for everything you gave us and may the force be with you.

George, I kneel. I prostrate before you in deep, sincere apology. I give myself completely to you in forgiveness for my sins. I was wrong. I was deeply wrong. I was indoctrinated and brainwashed by RLM's Prequel reviews. I hopped on the bandwagon without analyzing the intellectual masterpieces that are your films. I fell victim to mindless, vapid "analysis" that ignored the true auteur filmmaking that is your work on the prequel trilogy.

I was wrong, and I sincerely, profoundly apologize for the years I spent ridiculing your work of art. You were right all along George. I was wrong and I say that wholeheartedly and earnestly. Please forgive me.... I made a huge mistake. Disney has ruined Star Wars irredeemably. There is no coming back from the damage that has been wrought to what was once a centerpiece in the culture and art of science fiction movies. It cannot be done, all because we were brainwashed to excoriate you for making honest, decent films with deep lore and world building, which is utterly lacking in Disney's imprudent and myopic Star Wars films.

We had no idea how bad Star Wars would become. We had no idea the bastardization that Disney would wrought to your baby. I'm sorry, we should have been more supportive, we should have accepted that this was your creation and that you deserved to guide its vision in the direction you so choose.

I'm so sorry, George. PLEASE FORGIVE US!

The Force Awakens is a disaster worse than anything in any of the prequel films and has set Star Wars down a path from which it can never recover.

Truly, this scene is the worst thing ever produced in any Star Wars media ever. Yes, worse than any Jar Jar scene. Worse than any Ewok dance. Worse than ANYTHING.

I could spend an hour typing out a deep thoughtful analysis to explain exactly why this scene alone killed Star Wars, but I don't feel like typing it all out I've done it in the past.
