and let's not forget that George brought us the prequel trilogy which, while better than the current garbage, is still garbage. time and subsequent other terrible Star Wars content has softened our memories of the prequels, but they suck too. go watch the Plinkett reviews as a reminder if you need to.
I'm not sure the prequels are better than current. Just in the rebooted era, I liked Rogue One and Solo better than any of the prequels.
You're dead on that time has softened the views of the prequels. Attack of the Clones is a terrible movie. Phantom Menace has some decent scenes mixed with deadly boring portions and the stuff like Jar Jar that's just childish. Revenge is the only half decent movie in the bunch.
Lucas isn't saving anything. What's the last legitimately good movie or IP he generated? It's been a bit and you just don't turn the switch on and off.

They’re going to sell it. That’s the only rational explanation
So they are driving the value down to sell it? Makes perfect sense. I was trying to sell a car a few years ago and set it on fire first. I didn't want someone giving me too much money.

They need to sell to Favreau & Filloni.
Some of you give these two way too much credit. They're in on all this nonsense as well. They're not trying to change anything.

Why would you tank an IP to sell it?
Posted on 6/7/24 at 3:50 pm to Draco Malfoy
so you think their plan is to ruin the property then sell it?
He already fricked it up himself.
You want more space bugs?
Maybe he can add more shitty CGI to the OT.
You can hate disney but let’s not pretend like Lucas was batting 1.000 before he sold it.

Yeah, the prequels were freaking terrible

And he was fricking up his other IPs too
He wrote the story for Crystal Skull.
Everyon wants to post Carmen as Kathleen Turner
what was George Lucas doing in his South Park episode?

They did a whole thing of he and Spielberg sexually assaulting Indy. KK got off easy in comparison.

George knew exactly what people wanted to see with the prequels.
If people had wanted to see legendary badass Darth Vader lovesick and rolling around in a bed of flowers, then complaining about how sand gets everywhere and then capping it by screaming NOOOOO into the sky.
That is sarcasm because nobody actually wanted to see that. The prequels might be the worst depiction of a love story in movies ever. First, it's creepy because Anakin goes from Padme as almost an older sister in PM to being super horny for her at the beginning of Clones. Then it's super sappy drivel. Then it goes from sappy to him violently choking her because he had a bad dream in the last 30-45 min of Sith.

I wouldn't be surprised if Disney goes all in and remakes the original three.

These people are convinced they're putting out great content and everyone they report to is afraid to tell them they're not. They live in a deluded bubble just like every company.
Disney basically can't sell LucasFilm because they've fully integrated the brand into their parks which is pretty much the only thing at Disney actually making money. Getting rid of Pixar would be a much easier fix- you can easily renovate around the existing Pixar park IPs. DHS has the Toy Story land but the theming can basically be plucked out at any time and converted into whatever they want. And Pixar Pier at DCA is a matter of removing a few signs
Star Wars is a lot trickier: they spent $2B on it between WDW and Disneyland, and it's something you just can't easily re-theme

This is delusion.
George is done with running Star Wars.

Those $300 lightsabers at Star Wars World make up for whatever they lose on the tv shows
