I'd say Lucas has a good grasp on the SW fan base and that is why he sold out to Disney. He knew he would get shit on pretty much no matter what he did with the franchise. Why not make one last huge payday on your brain child and let someone else get shit on for what they do with it. Basically some of us die hard fans of the original trilogy are whiny bitches and thanks to the internet we have a platform where we can be heard by people like Lucas.
If it weren't for Jar-Jar, the terrible acting by the leads, and some questionable dialog I may have liked episodes 1-3. At the end of the day though Jar-Jar was for the kids not for me. I really can't excuse the acting as I'm sure both leads could have done a better job, perhaps some of the dialog would have been better if the director did a better job of getting more than wooden performances from his leads. <--- see whiny |
He sold, because there were a lot of zeros on that check. He actually still wanted to be part of the creative process with Disney, as I recall, and they basically told him to kick rocks.
