How can you blame his wife for the prequels? His didn't start dating his current wife until 2006, and he divorced his first wife in the mid 80s. Was there one in between that I am forgetting?

He got lost in the NO Cal wine life, where he knew her for years. I guess we can blame the whole crowd, actually.

Quote: Of all the criticism Lucas gets for poor writing in 1-3, I can't understand how these don't get more criticism. Just absolutely absurd. Should have at least made them formidable. Every time I watch the battles on Endor I just cringe. I understand the point that was trying to be made, but Ewoks couldn't have done what they did. I'm sorry, I just don't buy it.


A lot of the older Star Wars fans (at the time ROTJ came out) disliked the Ewoks. I was 7 at the time and didn't care, but looking back years later it was clear that Lucas was going the Jim Henson route in ROTJ and trying to make more money on merchandising. The Ewoks were very popular in the mid 80's.

This is a major criticism of ROTJ. They were supposed to be wookies, but Lucas ran out of money, if I remember correctly.

I hate the ewoks and I think they severely hurt what could've been a much better movie.

ESB is the best of the three and Lucas wasn't the director.

Also, I don't know if this had to do with the order in which I saw all 6 or with the additions to the original 3, but I could see how Lucas fricked up I,II,III while watching IV,V,VI. I still don't think he is a good film maker.

I love that crazy YouTube critique of Ep 1. I never fully appreciated how awful it was until seeing it broken down like that. Like, so much shite made no sense.

if it's not the original, non cgi ones then it's not real Star Wars.

There are people on this board (including me) who saw the originals in the theater.


I waited six hours in the lobby for Jedi

Way, way too obvious. The only thing that could have made it worse was to praise the acting in Episodes I, II, III as being better.
