Lucas reflected on his life in work in a wide-ranging chat in Cannes, where he received and honorary Palm d'Or.

Ideas like “midichlorians”? Good riddance then.
I don't hate the idea of midichlorians, honestly. Or rather, I do hate them but I think that's the point - to show that the jedi have kind of lost their way, are judging everything by "midichlorian counts" and tried to standardise and automate the process as much as possible rather than properly considering the human element and doing things on a case-by-case basis. If it's not the point then, well... it should be.
I think there are some decent ideas in the prequel trilogy, I just think the execution was pretty bad.
Agreed. The same way I disliked how whiny Anakin was but it made sense in context that Vader was this emotionally stunted kid with a traumatic childhood he couldn't get over.
Lucas took his pay day instead of continuing to build the story. His opinions don’t matter and the Mickey Mouse bullshit isn’t Star Wars.
They got kind of lost after the original three...
20+ years too late on that one George
Yes, meesa thinks.
I used to be bitter about what happened to Star Wars after the original trilogy. Now I realize that Lucas was never really a genius or anything. Since he doesn't have much talent to sell out, I don't blame him for just taking the money.
They got Lost the moment he fucked with them in 97
Absolutely - more about Midichlorians, I say!
