Out of the mish-mash of my intent, I still wonder the intent of the creator. Tolkien, I believe wrote LOTR formost for himself and then proceeded to have it published to share with the world whereas Lucas wrote for a medium that is strongly based on money. He wanted to created a modern myth with the classic architypal heroes journey story, but he also had in the back of his mind that if the story was accepted and sold well to audiences, he wanted to protect his creation. From an atistic level, I would also do the same to protect the rights to what I created, but when you become washed over with demand to create products based on one's creation, that's when you fall to the standards of what turns the globe. I don't know if that makes sense.
