Of course he loves all the Star Wars films, I'm just saying that according to him the others turned out closer to what he wanted than ANH did.
Maybe you are right. All I am saying is you have to assume that everything he says is a lie and everything you read between what he does say is "how it really is".
It's all "Sure Lucas says A, but because of this and this and this, he must be lying and really means B."
It's just quite a bit of assumption on your part is all.
-The original Star Wars was the movie that brought him success, he poured his heart and soul into it, it was a huge struggle for a young film school graduate and he shined through.
-ESB and ROTJ weren't even directed by him.
-The prequels were made 20 years later with the technology attained with the billions of dollars he's accumulated over the years.
Seriously, if you were him, which one of those would be the most special to you?
All of them. The fact that he had help directing 2 of them doesn't mean the project wasn't special to him.
