From the article:

"They are having a hard time," Lucas said. "They're saying, 'This doesn't fit into our little square boxes..."

What an arrogant statement coming from a guy who (while trying to expand his one story, on the fly) could only come up with having every character somehow end up being related to one or more of the other characters. He turned a giant, mysterious universe into The Wizard Of Oz.
Man, talk about a little square box.

Also, he couldn't be more wrong. These days, networks - broadcast and cable - are taking more chances and writing\shooting\presenting outside the little box more than they ever have before.

He really is the same guy he's always been. If he doesn't get exactly what he wants, he just digs his heels in and tells everyone else they're the ones that are wrong. Emotionally, he's still a child - it's as if the words "no" or "we disagree" don't really make sense to him.

People can't have a different opinion than him either. They can only have a wrong opinion. A network turns him down and it is immediately because they think small (read incorrectly) - not because they have a valid or different opinion. He can't just say "ok, thank you for your time" - he has to mock them in a national publication. Again, more child-like behavior.

I'm shocked sometimes at how he can be so wrong and so arrogant.
