He was traumatized by his experience with American Graffiti, where Universal arbitrarily cut five minutes from his finished version of the film. He vows that it will never happen again. "It wasn't a film by Lucas," he says bitterly. "It was a film made by me with changes by the studio. That isn't fair." One of the first jobs of Medway Productions will be to put American Graffiti back into distribution. It will be shown, with the five minutes restored, this May.

If he was traumatised with AG,then i guess i was traumatised for years which led him to make Howard the duck.
