What a whiny bitch. He is just mad they are doing well ::)
-
He's worth 5.1 billion dollars. Ill save my "tears" for someone else. :D :D
anyway, didnt he sell the rights to them? why would he then expect they would let him be involved in any way, shape or form?
-
I'm just curious exactly who put a gun to his head and forced him to sell?

His wife?

I hope Lucas doesn't get bitter on what has become a iconic franchise..
It looks like he is going to die a bitter old man... :-\
What did he expect when he sold his company?
That he was going to have a creative control to star wars and Indiana Jones..
Disney is all about profit.... and there going to appeal to the mass and make the movie as commercially as possible...

Because he give them scripts for 3 movies. The contract stated they didn't have to used them, and guess what? Disney hired better writers and made a better movie.
Lucas is mad because he wanted his cake and to eat it too. And the new movie is doing great without him, he wanted it to fail.

They really screwed up the Clone Wars cartoon.

And the prequels. They were so bad Hayden Christensen quit acting. :-\

Don't talk badly about the greatest artist of all time you scum.
Disney is fuking up the Franchise, making a a feminist vega ego fest.
There is a reason I wasn't pushed to see it a second time.

agree with that.

He's right. Disney is cashing in but another rushed shitty movie and people are going to lose interest.

They created the most perfect female ever. She is flawless that can do everything that everyone has to spend lifetimes training to do. The best part is we still know jack shit about her. The brew was the dumb negro sidekick. He's a cross between the new chewbacca and Han Solo.

so he sold the rights to Disney and now he is upset that Disney is making movies that target kids? ???
-
Did not read link, have not seen originals, only saw Phantom Menace and gave up. Coincidence of age.
For the prequels Lucas had free reign and waited for the SFX he could not use until then - that is the shitty movie he originally wanted but could not deliver. Fuck him.
Sold rights to Disney for $9bn, and a franchise that has made $42bn I think (including merchandise, probably inflation adjusted) - boo fucking hoo. He was rich before, if he wanted creative control he was hardly held to the sword financially - his divorce was in the 80s.

They really screwed up the Clone Wars cartoon.
Both the Clone Wars and The Prequels were done before Disney bought Star Wars.
Lucas did both of those.
Disney is batting .1000 so far.

Perhaps I don't understand your sarcasm.
Parker said "They", implying Disney. (As Lucas isn't a "they")
You quoted him, hence your inclusion into my statement.
If I am incorrect in some way, then I apologize, I was just trying to clarify.

Ah. I didn't know he was saying Disney did the cartoon.

No point in being a douchebag over someone who's worth over 5 billion dollars when it isn't me.

I believe he stopped acting before he shot these two films....
They were devoid of any fun, at least the new flick was enjoyable to watch

I'd have a little more sympathy for the dude if the he didn't fuck up the Special Editions of the original films AND the Prequel trilogy. Just fucking awful. Almost every idea he had was fucking horrible. What is his preoccupation with adding little CGI droids to every scene? Fucking falling down and slapping each other like the Three Stooges? Obviously the worst crime was having Greedo shoot first. The Prequels just sucked from top to bottom so there is no one thing to point out about them.
Look, I respect the dude, and I'm no fan of mega-conglomerate studios and their greed, but George Lucas has lost his mind. He has no idea how to make a serious movie anymore. It's really for the best that he not be involved anymore. I mean, in the Special Edition, he literally stopped Return of the Jedi in it's tracks and added a retarded song and dance number. It was obvious at a certain point that he was just using those movies to tinker around with CGI and test what they were able to do technologically. Way too much fucking green screen and little useless gags.
George, I love ya, but fuck off already.

Oh. I see. I took it you were against the clone wars as a show.
You wanted them to make more.
My mistake.

Precisely
That and a way to make a buck

Most people give Lucas too much credit. ESB was great not because of Lucas but because of Irvin Kershner. If Lucas had his way the movie would have sucked like the prequels. Because Lucas had free reign on the rerelease he added in scenes that he was originally overruled on and everyone hated those scenes. Adding the young anakin to the scene at the end of Jedi was heresy.

I must have missed the other 9 movies they put out. Got a link?
-
Episode 4 was so lean and tight not because of George but because they ran out of time and money.
The original Star Wars scripts are a nightmare to read.

Lay off my poorly placed decimal point.

This rich motherf ucker has no room to complain.
Fucking rich greedy kunt!

Fully agreed... the additions to the originals negate my childhood love for them... We need the original theatricals released with 4K transfers on blu-ray ASAP!

The guy got his billions of dollars and realized that his life didn't change one bit except for the fact that he lost total control of his precious Star Wars. lol

Can't believe he sold the toy rights. That was a gold mine that he could have cashed in on 10 fold over what he sold to Disney for. Wonder if he lost a bet to Bob Iger and had to sell.
