In this interview, no mention of Jar Jar Binks... But I thought he orginially concevied of Jar Jar Binks, and developed the storyline from there.

In seriousness, I find it so annoying when people pretend he originally had any concept of the prequels and some kind of trilogy of sequels.

That evolved later when they realized a lot of money would come in. Can't you cunts see that? Seriously...

@Moonwalker92 hell yes, me too... idk how long it's been since i saw this one!

@baryon15 why every prequle hates flames people who actually likes them to the end, just give them their opinion, you have your own

[MultiObligation]

@Devosimms We don't dislike the prequals because they were different we dislike them because they forgot everything that made the original trilogy so special.

Slap a Star Wars logo on a toilet seat and it'll sell, it was never going to be a flop.

[baryon15]

@Devosimms I'm sorry what? My ignorance? Please elaborate. There was nothing factually wrong in my statement except my opinion of the prequels quality which is entirely subjective. I think you're ignorant to the fact that you're just a pathetic 90's kid who only like the prequels because you were brought up with and cuz of the "awesome" lightsaber fights. The characterization is so messed up in the prequels, they are ripe with plot holes. Lucas has become a horrible director.

[Devosimms]

@baryon15 so you are trying to hide your ignorance by pretending I'm wrong its people like u who give star wars a bad name

[baryon15]

@Devosimms The prequels are horrible, and you are in denial. I suggest you watch "Redlettermedia" reviews and get enlightened. It didn't flop on a financial level however; Lucas earned hundreds of millions from financing the prequels.

[Devosimms]

Everyone says he made the prequels for money? That's not true at all! U just they they were different and didn't like them. If he made them for money, why on earth would he pay for everything, episode 3 was written,produced,directed, and payed fir by George lucas, if it was a flop, he would have lost millions!
