  • The special feature interview from the Star Wars: Blue Harvest DVD.
    I had to edit a bit of it out to fit the ten minute limit, and crappy WMM made a couple of edits choppier than originally, so sorry for that. Enjoy anyway.

      Yeah, he's not a bad guy he just decided to not collaborate on the prequel trilogy.
      Which was the worst (Star Wars) decision he ever made IMO.

      +Rus Pitman Actually, it's very underrepoted that he did offer script writing duties to Kasdan. But he turned it down. ROTS was also co scripted by another writer, Jonathan something. The main problem was putting Ben Burtt I'm charge of editing. He needed an extremely tight and confident editor because I say it time and time again - TPM and AOTC could be Mike's better with a great edit. As is evident in the many edits available online. But yes, a co-director would have worked wonders.

    • @SargentCpt
      @SargentCpt 8 лет назад +15

      +Craig Hicks very true. Being surrounded by "yes men" and poor editing made the prequels weak. Which is why there are so many good youtube edits for the prequels. Honestly the whole prequel trilogy could have been 2 movies. Even in the originals the way the movie was put together and the way scenes were removed made it a much better movie. There are plenty of awful moments in the originals that were scrapped (look at the original Lea and Han scene in cloud city in Ep. 5 for example)

      +Dan Tee its my opinion that if he'd had meaningful creative collaboration on the PT that they would've ended up good movies. I can only assume that he wanted too much control over the outcome, which is fair enough. They were his movies and he was in the position to do whatever he wanted. I don't dislike the films just the execution, but I can appreciate what he was going for. Regardless I've moved on from being annoyed at the prequels and I hope he works on something new soon. It will be interesting to see what films if any he makes now that Star Wars is done and dusted for him.

    Funny how many FANS continue to bash George Lucas but are still in love with the universe and characters he created. George Lucas is a legendary filmmaker with a legendary imagination and he seems like a decent human being. When he sold LucasFilms to Disney he donated all his profits to charity. He created the greatest movie universe in history. Everyone knows Star Wars and most people love it. That's why the prequels are judged so harshly. Just appreciate what he has done for film.

      They're ungrateful and entitled spoiled kids. O,k I don't really like the prequels either but I cannot say I know better what Star Wars should be not can I demand George Lucas make it a certain way as if I own the franchise. Of course now it's Disney. They'll pander and do fan service like they already have and fan service is not a good thing.

    • @5IvanDrago5
      @5IvanDrago5 8 лет назад +23

      +Reuben Natal First off I agree with almost everything you said. Lucas created a Master Piece and should be appreciated and fans should be grateful for it. I also agree all news and indicators are that Lucas is a really good guy that does really great things to help people. I do believe in my humble opinion though that Lucas seemed a bit more arrogant in the late 90's and early 2000's and I think that is part of the reason for some of the backlash. I think here in the last few years Lucas has been so humble, gracious, and even poked fun at himself in regards to the franchise moving forward with out him. Fact is with both his creations and charity efforts George Lucas has made the world a much better place, but his arrogance and stubborn ways in the prequels is reason for critique, but not the level of hate that is out there.

      @@DARTHMOBIUS I am tired of everyone blaming everything on SJW or Political Correctness. That shit has been around for thousands of years. People nowadays don't know their head from their ass and use those things as scapegoats for their problems.
      SJW's are unintentional assholes. They always have been, cut from the same cloth as grammar nazi's and technicality gurus. Are they annoying? Yes. Are they an actual problem? No. Just ignore them like you would ignore any other asshole.
      Political Correctness is an over-ambition of common decency, but please do not confuse the two. You need to utilize empathy in your daily lives. Try to realize that people different from you have different opinions and views on things. Put yourself in their shoes and understand why they think the way they do. Get along with people if they aren't being an abrupt asshole.
      A lot of the issues associated with political correctness are because those people that are different from you feel an incredible amount of negativity associated with them, without any reason. They are just trying to educate people that a different viewpoint exists, and that is perfectly fine. If you don't want to listen, then that is your choice, just don't be a dick like an SJW.
      I feel like people who complain about SJWs and SJWs are the same type of people, just finding something to bitch about. Shut the fuck up, get on with your life, and you will realize that SJWs and PC don't really affect much.
      Now if you want to know what's really the problem, it is the people who want power and money. Those are the people slinging the issue onto their scapegoats. These are companies who care way too much about money, these are people who care way too much about their power. Those are ultimately the people responsible for the change you don't want.
      Thanks for listening to my youtube comment rant, sorry if these things feel unfairly directed towards you, maybe you'll understand what it feels like to be the subject of undue negativity.

    The problem with people who hate the prequels so much is they just don't realise that Lucas didn't make them for fans of the originals or fanboys in general. He was making them with the same attitude he made the original with before it had any fans whatsoever. He wanted to tell a story he found interesting, that he believed in and displayed values he believed in. Then people whose whole world seems to revolve around Star Wars couldn't understand that Lucas cares about other things sometimes, couldn't understand the philosophy behind the films and how they were made and as a result decided to make him Public Enemy No. 1. And its completely undeserved.

    The whole two suns tatooine symbolism to me was; you cannot avoid destiny. Anakin was from tatooine and Luke was raised in tatooine. In episode 3, Owen Lars holds Luke as a baby and does the same pose we later on see in episode 4 where Luke raises his foot into the rock staring off into the sunset.
    Why? Because no matter how hard Luke tried to avoid the obvious he was always falling back into the road that lead him to be who he is, just like his father.
    Yoda (who's never wrong btw) said if you leave your training right now you will encounter pain and suffering. Also, when he went into the cave he saw darth vader and when he defeated him, the guy behind the mask was Luke.
    Lastly, in episode 1, Anakin's mom tells Anakin right before leaving with Qui Gon, "you cannot avoid your destiny just like you cannot stop the suns from setting."(somewhere between those lines.)
    So in my perspective; sunset means, you cannot avoid your fate.

He pushed his luck by making the ep1 too "kiddy". jar jar became a symbol of disappointment in ep1 and..... gaps had to be filled hastily. the rest of them lacked something. Star Wars in one way or another, preoccupied him forever, stifling him from moving on.......... i mean even Red Tails sort of looked like star wars in an odd way. at any rate, it gained him immense wealth and privilege for the rest of his days, so, you can't feel too bad.

      Family Guy alone makes him a titan.

    I loved this thank you! I loved when he talked about making the movie because it's what he wanted to see and nobody else was going to make it for him. It's a great lesson to all of us that if you want something, you gotta make it yourself. I often fantasize about creating ambitious things because I wish I could go to a place or do or have a particular thing that does not currently exist. If no body else is going to make it, I guess I'll have to create it myself. Too bad I don't really have that opportunity, money, energy and ambition to do it though.

    I love Seth’s Palpatine voice. Cracks me up every time. “Darth Syphilis!”

    That is the happiest I have ever seen George Lucas. Damn, it's so nice to see him loose like that. I was surprised because it is post prequels, and he had heard so much negative stuff, yet came out of it like this. Awesome

    the visual effects industry. Yes, "industry".
    Pixar
    Computer Animation
    the employment of many
    and the greatest story there ever was... Star Wars.
    ALL THINGS George Lucas gave us.
    thank you, George Lucas.
