Sunrise 7/8/2008 - George Lucas interview

[squamish4244]

I wish George Lucas would do something other than Star Wars. He's never made those 'art films' he kept talking about wanting to do after he was done with the saga. That's the real disappointment.

[supercoolbrian]

Yeah say what you want about the new movies, but they were at least worth viewing once, and quite franky, I own and watch all of them despite the poor dialogue. the story behind episode 2 and 3 otherwise is actually quite awesome and goes a lot deeper than anything in the original trilogy. Just too bad Anakin and Padme's laughable romance acting along with Jar Jar's obnoxious personality ruined it for alot of people.

[SaawkRaawk]

"jarjar binks wasnt nessercarily warmly taken by audiences"

that guy is far too nice

[MrBurgundy76]

i dont ever want to see him make a new star wars movie...my childhood has been raped enough

[GoblinsnHobbits]

NOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO­OOOOOOOOOOO

Lucas, stop fucking making movies now!

[GoblinsnHobbits]

"How cool is this, skywalker ranch?"

Its not cool. You are in a den of evil.

[ComfortWipe32]

Money making motion picture machine!!!!!!

[LDtheBrachio]

i have a message for all you lucas haters.. SHUT UPP!! George did Not ruin star wars.. YOU HAVE DONE THAT YURSELF!! and if you don't like the stuff he makes.. Go Away and find tr.. another movie series (like nolan's badman.. i mean batman.. disgrace.. but that's only me) and let Real star wars Fans enjoy the new star wars.

[gaozhi2007]

@whereeaglesdontdare get Jorge's cock out of your mouth. His balls are filled with miticholrians and might be dangerous to your health.

[GODCONVOYPRIME]

@whereeaglesdontdare They need to stop being such little bitches and grow up! They don't like it? FINE. Let the people who do enjoy it enjoy it without having to be treated like pariahs!

[LiquidArmProduction]

Gorge Lucas shouldn't direct them if he makes one more trilogy but as much as I hated some of the things he wrote I feel he should write them

[Dubbed2Death]

Clone wars is wank! IT HAS NOTHING ON THE FILMS, MY 4 YEAR OLD SON FINDS CLONE WARS FUNNY, THAT MAKES ME FEEL LIKE A SAD FUCK WATCHING IT..AT LEAST ON MY OWN! MAKE ANOTHER MOVIE, AND MAKE IT DARK FOR US ADULTS!

[MaMastoast]

he really should have that neck skin "fixed" ^^

[jfkpublicservant]

Could George Lucas be the Chosen One? I mean, he brought balance to the Force by both creating and destroying the greatest sci-fi/fantasy epic of all tine.

[gaozhi2007]

@jfkpublicservant  Awesome!

[DemiathDoomhammer]

he does have a fat neck.. unproportionally big, he isn't that fat really.. but George Lucas will always be one of my personal heroes..

[RobertsDigital]

I am not interested in the animated series....I prefer the original star wars movies

The star wars movie has to continue.....

[bladrunner6]

How much more can he milk from Star Wars, it's gotten stupid now, Ridley Scott makes new movies every year. You don't see him rehashing his movies for thirty years squeezing every last drop from them and fleecing his blind devotees for more and more money. I hear he's turning them into 3D now, for gods sake! It really is boring now and over half of the saga is shit anyway. The new ones are awful and the Return of the Jedi wasn't all that. It died for me after The Empire strikes back.

[kcunit333]

@bladrunner6 ahh thats because ur not a starwars fan since u state that 4 was the only good 1. ahh they are all amazing in my opinion

Seconde note the prequels are good however episode 1 not so much but 2 and 3 amazing most old ppl from the 70s forget that when the watched starwars they were young it was there generation it time to let the next generation have there own starwars.

[piroskatepunk]

jar jar is awsome thanks george

[TheNextVinceRusso]

"Soon the Jedi will not only be at war with you Count, but the Hutt clan as well"

So is George a part of this Hutt clan?

[Allante715]

George Lucas. If he could learn to write and actually allow other people to help him and correct his horrendous dialogue the prequel trilogy would have been much better. Too bad.

[darthvidu92]

@Allante715 actually the story in the originals and prequels is the best star wars lore in all of the star wars universe

[ManPunch900]

Star Wars Episode 1 is a more kiddy movie, but it's not horrible. Nevertheless, it could be better. Episode 2 is really boring. Episode 3 is suprisingly good and almost on par with the original series.

[Eldeecue]

My god, George! What happened to your neck?

[danriley3]

Crap, crap and more crap. If you think that  THE PHANTOM MENACE, ATTACK OF THE CLONES or REVENGE OF THE SITH, were good movies .....then you're a complete retard because they were kids movies at best. (not mentioning this new load of crap) try to imagine if Lucas had full control of 4,5 and 6....They would not have been the blockbuster hits that we know of today. What they would have been was material for "mystery science theater 3000"

[darthvidu92]

@danriley3 no you''re a retard, your opinion is not the same as everyone else's, live with it and don't insult people

[danriley3]

@darthvidu92 I think you should do some more research. As offensive as I may sound, I do apologize for what I said, but not for the crap that Lucas created with 1,2 & 3. I'm a fan of 4,5,6 only. Maybe you should watch a little Redlettermedia, maybe then you'll understand what I'm talking about.

[reviewreviewer1]

@danriley3 Usaw those reviews and many of his complainst are awful, 1. sais that it is wrong to make a films for all ages which ae foe rt the sophisticated kids and the young of heart adults, there is nothing wrong with making a movie multiside and universal, 2. I could give a discription of 2000 letters of the caracters as he asked, 3. he has many unsophisticated points and the films arw just not manipulative or for an unsohisticated audience, meaning there doesn`t have to be a main caracter.

[LDtheBrachio]

the Clone Wars is aweosme, oh this interview should have had dave fiolie. also if i was lucas i'd mention the old show and novals/comics stuff.

[sparkyjones]

Fuck you lucas...

[iffjs]

Whats with all these thumbs down on these true comments? Its obvious George has fucked up his own series. It used to be so good but oh wait Episode 1-3 happened.

[Robopencil]

@iffjs Now now, Episode 3 was a good movie. We just had to sit through 2 shitty films to finally get to it.

[lowmax64]

He's aging really badly.

[neatboy9]

he screwed star wars up with cartoon cloe wars.

[songofanime]

I like it.

[phyrstjedi]

Lucas is the Jerry Garcia of Sci Fi fans

[onikjohn3]

Wow his growing lengthwise isn't he?

[BizarreWorks]

Lucas has scary neck

[CarDoseS]

this movie was a piece of fuck

[wyhawk]

What was the final decision?

[kzundiverus]

he ruined star wars.

[Naruseki]

We all know Carrie Fisher fucked George Lucas for the role.

[CadeSkywalker94]

lucas can go fuck himself, i hate clone wars

[Bearod35]

lol

[CarDoseS]

i agree

[vikmega]

LUCAS IS SUCH A QUACK!

[AKKUPATI]

did i get it right they are making a star wars live action tv-series

[BigBenIsTheSavior]

Lucas the Hutt

[RavingCelt009]

What's this about a live action series? This is news to me! Please be Prequel Trilogy or even Pre-Prequel based!!!

[RideMyBMW]

min 2:40 "Unfotunately you guys gotta lot of inflation..."

LOL!!! With a brushstroke Lucas just doomed the Aussie movie industry for the next 2-3 years. XD!!!!

[kemshifarm]

If he doesnt make a new trilogy before he dies, ill be so pissed

[99jarjarbinks]

@kemshifarm have faith fellow jedi, or sith, "episode 7, 8, and 9" will happen. just have patience, use the force, and believe.

[darthvidu92]

@99jarjarbinks no it won't he stated that if he'd make movies again it would predate the chosen one time period and not follow it

[ZakMayers]

@kemshifarm He ruined one already. Why do you want more?

[snuffmovie1]

@kemshifarm well you're going to be pissed then!

[phoenix02200]

@kemshifarm why a new trilogy? Its over XD

[EbayEuron]

@kemshifarm me2

[EbayEuron]

PLEASE A NEW TRILOGY!!!!!

[Robotdrummerzzk]

@kemshifarm Guys, a new trilogy would be absolutely shit. The whole saga is about Anakin Skywalker. What do you want the other trilogy to be about? Fighting a few left over Imperial battle cruisers? Leave it where it is and enjoy the clone wars and live action projects.

[Synisgod33]

@Robotdrummerzzk I think the Dark Forces series and the story of Kyle Katarn would be good film material.

[sheyy2020]

i love the animated series(:

is hayden the voice of aniken in the series too?

[lucasfan18]

great interview george but enough clone wars i want the live action that has been promised lol

[EbayEuron]

@lucasfan18 me2

[EzrinJem2]

Is Lucas sick? Is he having health issues? He doesn't look well. :(

[lucasfan18]

He isn't sick it's just called getting abit older

[EzrinJem2]

No. That looks like more than "just getting a bit older." He does not look well.

[KhalSyr]

Looks like Jaba the Hut

[dmjr1979]

He really does look awful,maybe the thick beard was covering the extra weight around his neck. Its very noticable now

[fatsobastardo]

Yeah,milk that cow Lucas.

[spacewookie]

money!!!

[cubsftw29]

Wow Lucas looks terrible. I remember watching an interview a few years ago where he looked much better.

[carpconsciousness]

jenny craig

[DARTHWISDOM]

You stupid fuck, Lucas has diabetes that`s why he is fat...

[morganspie]

(most of) the kids did love him.

[wiggbuggie0]

awsome the movie was great

[ChrisCrockerTime]

His only joke is money related.

[FGLFilms]

look his neck is growing
