Uh... right... knew what he was doing, just like with the Holiday Special, the Ewok movies, allowing himself to be associated with Howard the Duck, Jar- Jar Binks... Georgie always knows what he is doing, why can't we just trust the guy? Don't think George made the Holiday Special because he thought it would be a fitting sequel to Star Wars. He made it because Star Wars was big, and it was a way to cach in on a few extra bucks. Ewoks? Why did he make these? Because they were a fantastic tie in to the great Star Wars Saga and an important part of his ultimate vision? It was a great way to cash in more on SW movies. Many people liked the Ewoks, make a made for TV movie about them, people will eat it up. It went over well, make another. Time goes on and Star Wars stops pulling in as much as it used to, maybe the fans still buy every re-release of the trilogy but it isn't enough. Time to make the prequels!
And next, the Star Wars TV show? Star Wars is too big for the little screen, but people are going to eat it up all over again. The quality of it doesn't matter, it will probably just be a bunch of no name actor dancing around with lightsabers in front of a green screen, but it is Star Wars! So you'll be sure to watch. I'll be sure to watch. Then it comes out on DVD season by season. $$$$$$$ Yes, the great bearded one most certianly knows what he is doing, I don't think any one of doubts that.
