Therefore Star Wars is not solely the artistic property of GL but, I would say, that the fans have more rights to decide about the fates of these masterpieces than this genius that seems to have gotten too used to the idea of being called a genius.
George, get over it. Not all your films are brilliant but you do have talent. Don't waste it because you want to be the spoiled brat that has to have it his way because he sees it like that.
Of course, please don't get me started on my views of the PT.........

I agree- if the fans hadn't made the original Star Wars such a success by going to see it multiple times in the movie theaters, and buying all of the accompanying merchandise, there wouldn't have been any sequels. Star Wars would have been just another semi-obscure cult-movie which (ironically) would probably have an anamorphic DVD release by now! LOL!
