  • "When you finally show the monster, it's a disappointment." When I heard George Lucas say this, I mentally conjured Admiral Akbar spinning around in his chair, yelling about how it's a trap. George Lucas, master of subtly.

  • i always wonder how old mentaly steven speiberg. out of all thes guys ridley scotts the coolest

  • How do we make giant insects scary again? lol that would be fun if possible.

  • WTF is george lucas doing htere. who the fuck cares about what he thinks, i wanna hear more from Ridley Scott !

  • Thanks, TheAltair4. I don't say that kind of thing lightly. There have been so many good to great filmmakers that have played with the science-fiction genre. A lot of filmmakers have failed to really connect audiences. Some filmmakers - like Stanley Kubrick with 2001 - have proven themselves to understand the genre as an art. They are certainly great at what they do. Ridley Scott did the same thing with Alien. Spielberg did it with ET, Close Encounters and AI.

    But, Cameron is A #1 IMO.

  • @LukeLovesRose lol. Good one! I agree.

  • James Cameron mostly made science-fiction into an A-quality genre himself, mostly. lol. There is no end to his genius.

  • @torchkit Or at least parson Spielberg! I wonder who dressed him for this doc?

  • George Lucas raped the Star Wars Saga. He negated his accomplishment of the first film with the last three.

  • @teetertotter68 Maybe if you were ranking their beards.
