I like RotJ fine, mostly. Having Steven S. direct it would have been great, though . . .
I don't like everything he does but there's no doubt he's a fine director who really knows his stuff.
Question: if Lucarse couldn't have Steven S. direct Jedi, how did he keep having him for the other Indy flicks? Because those still have the credits in the beginning? Sheesh, I've never understood why the credits thing is such a big deal, anyway. Who wants to read a bunch of stupid names while the movie's starting? Save it all for the end, when it's just music and no picture. lol
I'd sure like to read a book about the making of SW that didn't have any official Lucarse propaganda. That would be really interesting.

Perhaps in some ways Lucas got angy at Hollywood and took things out on his fans. Spielberg seems to inspire a great deal of debate on both sides of the chasm, both from those who think that he is an overrated, sentimental, manipulative, and overhyped hack, and those like myself who love his unrivaled skills at crafting set pieces, manipulating audiences, creating sheer cinema. Love him or hate him, he's certainly influential and even his weakest films are superbly crafted.
