>"People don't actually realize it's actually a soap opera and it's all about family problems - it's not about spaceships. So they decided they didn't want to use those stories, they decided they were going to do their own thing so I decided, 'fine.... I'll go my way and I let them go their way.'"

The thing about Lucas is that people don't know when he's joking or when he's serious. He was serious when he said he'd make movies for himself. And the dumb reporter laughed thinking it was a joke. While the crush thing is obviously a joke and everyone thinks he's serious.

Wowwwww
>>64076888
That's what happens when people try to decipher how an autist feels.

Face it, he has the right vision. Star Wars isn't space ships. Star Wars is the Skywalker line. That's what differentiates it from the rest.
>>64076918
Nah, people are just narcissists and just presume everyone is actually terrible or crazy rather than having an ounce of empathy and realizing it's a joke

Watch this. Lucas knows the deal. It's all a farce now. The age of creators is long gone. It's been hijacked by statistics and suits.
>>64076920
damn
>>64076920
Yes but this film is still about family.
Also no it didnt become a family oriented series until Empire.
Lucas is great at retroactively fitting things to fit his own narrative
>>64077045
delusional backpedalling
stop posting anytime please
>>64077045
It was definitely family-oriented in ANH aswell. Vader killed Luke's father and his adoptive parents so he feels it his destiny to avenge them and kill Vader.
Disney shills think Star Wars is pew pew lightsabers when it's really not.
>>64077069
>Disney shills think Star Wars is pew pew lightsabers when it's really not.
>implying George doesn't
>>64077112
He does, but it's not the core of Star Wars.
I agree with him on religion, even though I am an atheist. I'd join Islam if the majority of its followers were white. I'm particularly fond of their treatment of women and gays.
>>64077045
>Yes but this film is still about family.
Thats why Kylo Ren is the best character in the new film. He continues the story of the family. Rey is the closest thing to a Mary sue we've ever had, Poe is just an average resistance fighter,Finn is just another resistance fighter who accidentally got placed amongst the stormtroopers, Hux is just another member of the first order, Maz Kanata is a lame version of Yoda, etc.
>>64077061
How the fuck is it backpedaling?
>>64077069
Thats not really having the film having a theme of family though, it was using his adoptive parents as a crux to get Luke into the Rebellion and main plot of the movie.
Vader killing Lukes father isnt really played into it that much in contrast to Ben being killed by him
>>64077234
>You knew my father
>He has too much of his father in him
>Obi-Wan literally only takes him because of who his father was
You could have just said it was a theme but not the main point. Why do autists just have to pick the most retarded arguments?
>>64077234
But Vader was planned as Luke's father from the start. You can even tell that Obi-Wan is hiding shit in Episode 4.

That sounds a lot like myself

Oh my god
You keks are so delusional
There was NO greater purpose or genius visionary behind the prequels
They were made for toy sales just like "le corporate cashgrab garbage xD" from disney

George Lucas hate is entirely manufactured by Hollywood to discredit him because he never bowed to execs and was an independent thinker not afraid to speak his mind.

Look up neo-realism, George isn't off-base with that comment, there is a precedent
dunno
>>64076818
Lucas is such a goofball
Here's the deal about lucas. He's a genius.
The prequels were a absurdist deconstruction of the space opera genre much like how godard's movies are a deconstruction of the classic french thriller genre.
Phantom Menace is literally the Pierrot le fou of the space opera genre.
It's patrician cinema of the highest quality.

What did he meme by this?

He took over control of the merchandising not because he thought he was going to make him rich, but because he wanted to control it. He wanted to make a stand for social, safety, and quality reasons. He didn't want someone using the name "Star Wars" on a piece of junk.
>>64076953
This is a defense mechanism. you're filing any behavior you don't understand as absurdity in order to codify it.
>>64079428
isn't that lucas' adoptive son?
I'm so sorry George. I talked badly about you during Episode 1 and 2... I'm so sorry.
Please come back. Please save us from endless rehashing.
Deliver us to the promised land of more originality.
>>64084618
narc detected
Here is the schism that will separate the true fans from the fake fans. Real fans of Star Wars and the true meaning of the saga know the story ended with Lucas and all of the canon. Fake fans are going to suck up to Disney's special FX and JJ's streamlined and soulless rendition of big spectacles and epic fights.
I only have a passing interest in the new trilogy.
>>64077502
Objectively false. You know the original ideas for the sequel to ANH was turned into a book and a comic called "Splinter of the Mind's Eye."
George works best as a collaborative producer, but he needs other people around him that can balance out his weaknesses.
My entire fucking family, without asking me, based our Christmas family outing around all of us going out to watch this fucking kike flick "as a family", as my brother put it. I'm getting shat on because I'm ditching what is "something for us to do together" and "it's not about the movie". Fuck this shit. Now I'm the bad guy that doesn't want to garble jew boy's cuck flick. I swear to fucking god, I haven't gone to a movie theater in years and I'm going to continue not going even if everyone fucking abandons me.
>>64085893
this is bait children
>>64086181
Hate leads to suffering, anon.
>>64085844
yeah agreed. Star wars without Lucas is like the Doors without Jim Morrison. Instantly pointless, but still great at making money.
>based george will never make another star wars trilogy
hold me bros
>>64083850
Holy shit that makes sense. It's all so clear now. Jar Jar Binks really is the key to all this
Religion has the best merchandising deal
>>64076988
Hair on that fucker is just phenominal.
If Star Wars is for children then why does Revenge of the Sith include child murder?
Me: 1
Lucas: 0
>>64089445
fairy tales are filled up with horror and child murders. Bluebeard, the boy who cried wolf, hansel & gretel, Little Red Riding Hood...
You seem to not have a single ounce of culture, therefore I suggest you go back to reddit, it will be a much nicer place for your ignorance.
