Well, all I can say is that Kill Bill, is greater than the Prequels combined.
Theres nothing that makes me cringe more than Lucus being able to ruin SW and everything else hes involved with.
--- Quote ---As campy as it all was, I feel a bit nostalgic about it. Replacing it with elevator music was lame

Agree.
I especially hate how he ruined the Jabba puppet band with that corny cartoony cgi act.
--- Quote ---I watched "Firefly" for the first time ever, and now, I don't give a ---steaming pile of meadow muffin--- about Star Wars, Trek or anything else sci-fi.

I saw a bunch of them, and they are great. I saw the movie "Serenity" first however, and that blew me away with how good it was (I expected a cheezy B flick). Wow, LOVE it.

Probably not by our standards but you need a lot of juice to keep up with his payroll. He also does not like to borrow money The "Special Editions" were originally created to fund EP1.
Donkbaca:
You don't give away 175 million bucks if you are hurting for money, granted that was 5 years ago, but something tells me he didn't go bust in the housing boom like a bunch of folks I know. He has so much other crap that he has produced, plus ILM. Maybe you know something I don't :dizzy:
I highly doubt they will ever remake star wars, they would make more money and take less risk by just releasing a new special version. Why dump 200+ million on a remake when you can dump a few million in post production and make the same amount of money?

I'll grant you that. I was going to go with Kevin Smith originally because he is a big fan but that makes me cringe. How about Peter Jackson?

I don't pretend to understand Lucas. I just know that he does not like to be beholden to anyone and has a history of doing "easy" project to fund the next project.
I agree we won't see Star Wars remakes until Lucas is dead and buried. But I do think we could see some big budget spinoffs at some point.
