It needs to end. It will never be seasons 1-3. I burned through season 5 and felt like it ended with nothing happening.

Agree. Tobias was beyond horrible/misused in S5, IMO. Portia on green screen a lot didn’t help that. George Michael/Maebe scenes were some of the strongest.
I think a season 4 when it was on Fox would have been perfectly fine. The time away and loss of momentum throws things off. I at least give the original edit of season 4 some credit for trying something different.
the show deserves to go on for Will Arnett, Michael Cera and Alia Shawkat alone. I honestly don’t mind if the other characters disappear entirely
Watching the Documentary about the making of the Prequels is nightmare levels of embarrassing. He’d say shit, turn to the room and everyone would be like ‘That’s great!’ regardless of the quality of his statement. He’d crack a joke and the room would nervously laugh along with it.
You’re not wrong. IMO the brilliant things Lucas contributed were: a simple, “hero’s journey” story; the idea that futuristic planets would have a lot of worn-out junk and bad parts of town; and spaceships that people drive like cars.
At some point after 1990 or so, George Lucas made the same mistake every slow 9-year-old on the planet makes - confusing Star Wars for science fiction, instead of the magical sword-and-sandal fantasy with sci-fi trappings that it really is. So, he decided to shoehorn a bunch of “hard” sci-fi elements into the…
Star Wars was a sort of good idea for a story by Lucas. Really what made Star Wars great was John Williams music, a brilliant, beyond genius edit job by his former wife Marcia Lucas, artwork by Ralph McQuarrie, and special effects and sound design by what would become ILM.
a handful and a huge amount are the same thing, in that they don’t mean anything.
During the first three movies, there were people around to tell him, “No George, that’s fucking stupid.”, but after ROTJ (or maybe during, Ewoks were his idea, after all), there wasn’t anyone to take his ideas and make them actually work, so we got Midichlorians, Jar-Jar, and philosophical discussions on sand.
What’s *really* going to bake your noodle is, this is also the same guy who created THX-1138!
The assholes harassing the new trilogy actors deserve George Lucas’s version and nothing more. What a bunch of monsters.
At least they wouldn’t have had any GIRLS in them to remind me that I’m going to be an unfuckable bearded mess until I’m dead.
What the fuck? People use Google Plus (assuming that’s what G+ is)
More and more the original Star Wars looks like Lucas got lucky with lightning in a bottle, doesn’t it?
Read the rest of the comments alert.
It gets better: According to the interview, Lucas’ original idea for Episode VII was Luke explaining to Leia the Jedi method for holding your breath in space and floating in zero-gravity. It would have been presented as a single shot, one-take, in real time, and the audience would have been presented with copies of…
I don’t remember the prequels well. I just remembered it followed Darth Vader who lost his mother and was therefore afraid of losing his Natalie Portman and logically believed that murdering a bunch of children would fix everything. There was also some weird cult stuff, trade negotiations, and apparently something…
Is THAT what you whiny fucking manbabies would have rather had?
And yet, there will be idiots on my G+ Star Wars feed who will insist that “this would be better than anything Kathleen Kennedy and the SJWs at Di$ney could come up with” or some such horseshit.
