He had a great concept, and it spanned 3 terrific movies. What Lucas did, however, is take his genious concept and try to stretch it into six movies, with snazzy effects and weak scripts hindering the last 2. The overall ideas of th origional 3 have been spread thin and watered down. I just don't think he knows when to stop.

As for "genius"... I'm not sure that word fits him. Is there a word for someone who creates something so good and then (more or less) destroys it?
