I was at this panel--when George came walking out, it was completely unexpected. The place went NUTS, as you can see here. Best moment in my SW fan life up to this point.
There is no real no real reason to hate on Lucas. Those films are a result of VERY hard work. Years worth of it in fact for each and every outing. Yes, they belong to him, now in legacy form rather than physical (thanks Disney). In the end, for the last trilogy, i believe there were many many factors at play aside from just telling a story set in that galaxy. He's getting older, his stamina for putting these together has wore him down. He's been sick for a number of years as well. so chill.
People hating on Lucas doesn't make sense. You don't have to watch the prequel trilogy. For anyone watching this, the man probably made your favourite film(s) of all time. I think him setting out a general story for ep 7 would be good, however in terms of writing the screenplay, directing, producing, leave that to others (Like ESB). The man works best with limited creative control. (A New Hope the exception - Did pretty much everything).
All the applause George gets makes me smile. As much as we may want to hate him, as much as we give accusations of "raping" childhood, as much as there are death threats towards him, we still love him.
I fucken love the voice actor for Obi Wan, god he does an amazing job on my boy Obi Wan. And i also love of course the creator of this whole sexy ass movie/ TV show. George Lucas. But i am wounding, were they joking around when they said, "George, have you met, the voice actor for Obi Wan in the clone wars?" And James said, " Obi Wan Kenobi sir, i don't know if you remember me." I would think that George would of course, since he was the one that hired him as an actor? Right?
So cynical... He sold to Disney because he knows hes going to die eventually and its pretty much guaranteed Star Wars will live on after he does, so he wanted to make sure the franchise was in good hands.
+FutureImagineerRCT3 Meh. I wish he had gone the Back to the Future route and said' Alright, the movies are done. That's it now." Franchises tend to overstay their welcome these days.
HyperdrivePics that's a really bad route, Back to the future has so many stories to tell and yet all we got since 1990 was a crappy TV series, a Jimmy Kimmel cameo and a crappy game
If I'd gone, I don't know if I would have seen this panel but would have been at the Clone Wars one where he appeared. He looks like he's gotten more animated, lighthearted and casual about all this.
Hey, I know this may not be that much of consolation, but my uncle has the original, unedited rare vhs versions from way back from the original release. and since I have a screen capture device, I can actually convert those vhs files in to digital, so they can last forever. Personally though, I don't mind the edits from the newer versions.
They mean the original *version* of the original trilogy. Yes, the old trilogy is out on blu ray, but it's the Special Edition (edited/altered) version, not the proper one. :)
George was a surprise guest on several panels at Celebration VI. Awesome...however Celebration V was better in terms of logistic, specially at the autograph hall
Actually since Star Wars is now in the National Film Registry it belongs to culture as a whole and is a piece of art that should be restored to its original form, especially when this original form can easily co-exist with an "updated" or "modified" version.
12:00 Super Secret Star Wars panel with the guys who make Robot Chicken. Yeah I missed it too, planned on seeing it but got to the convention center later than I wanted. I probably would have hurried a little more if I knew he was going to be there.
That is the one thing I can understand, the fact that he won't just release the authentic blu-ray versions of the OT. Hopefully Disney will. I should re-phrase what I said by stating people hating on him for the PT.
I really am hoping for the next films to be pretty good. Considering what Disney have done with Marvel, I think it's relatively safe to hope they won't ruin it.
those wernt even up to the quality of DVD. they were taken from the laserdisc versions. so again, if you read my ORIGINAL comment, it says "original versions of the trilogy on blu ray". BLURAY. kthxbai.
For just a minute....I forgot about all the bad things George Lucas has done. Regardless, he's STILL the one who created one of the best movies of all time. I salute him!
@@Сайтамен he signed off on the ewok movies just like the holiday special and 9 is the only other star wars movie that you could argue is worse than 1 and 2
maiby your right but im still exited about ep 7.8.9 maiby they do it well. 50% if i should say it. for me this is positive i meen more games maiby star wars battlefront 3 ! and more dont give up hope i meen this is star wars we are talking about. sometimes they do bad things and sometimes they do good
Its not about the prequels, its not about episode 7, its not about him selling out to disney. Its about him making 3 awesome movies, then altering those movies to the point where they suck. Taking a masterpiece and shitting on it with CGI.
I can. I used to gobble up the prequels as a kid, but despise them as a man once i realized not everything with the star wars brand is guaranteed good. I am grateful for the world and mythology he brought with the original trilogy, but like you said-his only good work came from being around collaborators and others rather than mere yes men. What i hate is the constant tinkering with the OT, for no genuine reason other then his hope of force feeding the masses his prequels. Total BS
*snorts* 34 faceless people in an ether against oh I don't know, couple thousand cheering fans in that theatre filled to capacity. So what was that, faceless person?
those are not the original cuts of the film. George, throughout the years has been slowly tweaking them and adding computer effects that stand out and are annoying. The fan community just wants the original cuts in high def, but george refuses to do this simple task.
also: Name calling and being homophobic in 2012? What are you, 12? You don't even know me and go straight to name calling based on a sexual preference that you know nothing about? So on top of the fail I've already presented in the above comment, you can chalk two more fails as well there, boy.
Who wants to bet lots of these people in attendance bash him online but then when he walks on stage they still go nuts?
Thats why the internet is a fake place. In real life the Fanboy comes out
I was at this panel--when George came walking out, it was completely unexpected. The place went NUTS, as you can see here. Best moment in my SW fan life up to this point.
He seems to have so much fun with those people, it's really fun to see.

George is awesome! Thanks for all the wonderful movies!
so much money, and always with the same jeans and t shirts?!...
Amen. Regardless of what he chose to do-he created something many love. I am grateful.
Lucas is a class act...much respect...the guy almost had a heart attack making star wars
Cut, cut, CUT!. I quit, this is the holiday special all over again XD
That guy's George Lucas costume is really spot on!
his voice too!
George lucas is my inspiration.
I agreed forget about those haters. This is George's story not theirs.
3:36 the George has emerged from hyper space
Yes they, and millions of others, still love him. And always will.
when will they learn?
GEORGE LUCAS: LEGEND.
The link they gave for shirts doesnt seem to work. Are there SWD shirts available still online?
The man who’s made my middle school onward amazing
All the applause George gets makes me smile.
As much as we may want to hate him, as much as we give accusations of "raping" childhood, as much as there are death threats towards him, we still love him.
George had fun with this stuff. Now it's with Disney and all corporatized.
lol people hating on the "prequels" needa act mature.all of these movies had their strong points
They are amazing.
I fucken love the voice actor for Obi Wan, god he does an amazing job on my boy Obi Wan. And i also love of course the creator of this whole sexy ass movie/ TV show. George Lucas.

Him and Spielberg... and Indiana Jones. :(
Old comment, but amazing south park reference
I hope he'll make a surprise apperance in SWC-Europe II too....
The ovation was not loud or long enough. George is literally Star Wars personified. As he once said anything he says is cannon. 🙏
So cynical... He sold to Disney because he knows hes going to die eventually and its pretty much guaranteed Star Wars will live on after he does, so he wanted to make sure the franchise was in good hands.
+Andrew Heard Which is why for the new films, it's always a new director. They don't want to repeat what George had to deal with.
+FutureImagineerRCT3 Meh. I wish he had gone the Back to the Future route and said' Alright, the movies are done. That's it now." Franchises tend to overstay their welcome these days.

And to be even fairer his new ideas weren't the best.
@@bruhmieter5688 They were the best compared to Disney crap.
Who's man near Seth Green (He wear black shirt ?
this was the first panel i went to i just went to the one with the most people. everyone freaked out when george lucas cam on stage
Georgie is looking really good!
If I'd gone, I don't know if I would have seen this panel but would have been at the Clone Wars one where he appeared. He looks like he's gotten more animated, lighthearted and casual about all this.
When is the show going to premier?
What channel will it be on?
George Lucas has a hell of a poker face. He was in the process at this point of making the deal with Disney.
im not sure if im not even more excited about detours than about rebels XD
The complete saga is in a blu ray box set?
Umm...They have been available on Blu-Ray for a few months now...
GODDAMMIT GODAMMIT I MISSED THIS PANEL GODAMMIT !!

george lucas in the houssssssssssssssse!

I LOVE the fools who think STAR WARS belongs to them. They amuse me.
and it was at this exact point that George decided it was probably for the best to sell the franchise.
So glad I was there I didn't care if I was in the balcony!
When was this and where was it? I was there all Saturday and didn't hear about this. Oh well. There's always Celebration VII.
George was a surprise guest on several panels at Celebration VI. Awesome...however Celebration V was better in terms of logistic, specially at the autograph hall
I was here!
what are these comments, jesus
8:50
The han solo in front of the guy with the jack skellington shirt and apologizing to a woman for stepping on her feet is me!!
@TRON8882 if you mean the clone wars ( im too lazy to hit show comment) itll b on cartoonnetwork sep. 29 Saturday 9:30 AM
Actually since Star Wars is now in the National Film Registry it belongs to culture as a whole and is a piece of art that should be restored to its original form, especially when this original form can easily co-exist with an "updated" or "modified" version.
Well said, buddy!!!
They should be allowed to release this show on DVD if it isn't going to make it to TV.
Dear George,
please release the original versions of the trilogy on blu ray.
Sincerely,
The Internet.
No.
Why would you not want that

@ndgh209 I'm talkin about the orgional, UNALTERD, VHS.
Without them he would be nobody. Without him there would be no Star Wars.
Is that people walking out after George comes onto the stage?
The Maker! The Maker!
I Never thought that Scott Evil was a Star Wars fan lol
your right
I really am hoping for the next films to be pretty good. Considering what Disney have done with Marvel, I think it's relatively safe to hope they won't ruin it.
oops lol
@@tristanmayer5373 I was so naive...
🤣🤣
OMG I WAS THERE! which section was he in?
George: Cut, CUT, CUT! I Quit, this is the holiday special a over again
Why does that not surprise me

You forgot to add : Original version RESTORED on blu ray...RESTOOOOOREEEEED...
Hire Seth green to remake the sequels.
At least he WANTS to NOT disrespect the lore.
those wernt even up to the quality of DVD. they were taken from the laserdisc versions. so again, if you read my ORIGINAL comment, it says "original versions of the trilogy on blu ray". BLURAY. kthxbai.

I can't wait for more robot chicken

What bad things, except choosing Kennedy?
@@Сайтамен the special editions, the ewok movies, episodes 1 and 2
@@chriswp50 He didn't make ewok movies. And others aren't bad.
@@Сайтамен he signed off on the ewok movies just like the holiday special and 9 is the only other star wars movie that you could argue is worse than 1 and 2
He says "Cut, Cut, Cut! I quit! It's like the holiday special all over again..."
Or so I think.
now thats better.
Agreed.
This guy Lucas has got us by the balls
i think they dd cuz i have a few that are on blueray
haha, yes :D I seriously think it was a great move. I can't wait for 2015 now. Theres hope for more epicness in Star Wars style.
Unfortunately…
damn straight.
Cool
I wanted to go but the dark side kept me from going sorry George Lucas :(
I find your non lack of faith inspiring...
maiby your right but im still exited about ep 7.8.9
maiby they do it well. 50% if i should say it.
for me this is positive i meen more games maiby star wars battlefront 3 ! and more
dont give up hope i meen this is star wars we are talking about. sometimes they do bad things and sometimes they do good
Soooo, what are your thoughts about EPS 7,8,9?
Its not about the prequels, its not about episode 7, its not about him selling out to disney. Its about him making 3 awesome movies, then altering those movies to the point where they suck. Taking a masterpiece and shitting on it with CGI.
before the dark times, before the Darth Mickey

please release the original versions
