When I think of George, many things pop into my head. I am deeply conflicted in ways only a Nerd can be. Without George there would be no Star Wars at all. Does the creator of something also have the right to destroy it? Does art always belong to the artist or does it enter the public domain? George believes “Star Wars” is his I think and in his mind it is if it has never been seen. He seems totally immune to criticism, even obvious and virtually unanimous criticism. Or at least so it seems.

Sci-Fi Trailer: The People vs. George Lucas
Everyone’s got an opinion on George Lucas’ “Star Wars” franchise and Lucas himself. Everyone seems to love the first three movies. (Well, the first two, with some reservations about the third, although I kind of liked “Return of the Jedi” myself.) But there is nearly universal dislike (and some would say, contempt) for the latest “Star Wars” installments. Why all the hate for Jar Jar Binks? Okay, stupid question. But you gotta wonder what is it about Lucas that seems to tick so many people off, people who have loved his movies for so long. When did it go wrong, George?
