But videogames don't need to suck the plot twist in the first Kotor Game is better than the prequels story.
But then again Drew Karpshyn who also wrote the Best sci fi Rpg ever Mass Effect wrote that, not George Lucas.
It is absolutely Pathetic that The upcoming Video Game Force Unleashed is better written than all three prequel flms because Lucas brought other writers in. He is also bringing in other writers on the clone wars cartoon tv show and the live action tv show and it is about fucking time cause the dude cannot write.
It is absolutely inexcusable that Lucas did not bring other writers and directors in on the prequels. A few More Script Drafts and some good screen writers as well as a couple good directors on Clones and Revenge would have been better.
But he did not want to spend the minimim of a 500 thousand dollars to pay other writers to write the 3 scripts. I believe he should have Directed Phantom Menace just to get the ball rolling but other editors and better actor directors should have been brought in to make it a better movie.
The best kind of friends a writer can have are not yes men they are people who will tell you your story is shit if it is. and in the end your book or movie comes out better.
To this day i find it amusing that Marcia Lucas the editor made George Lucas the director look Good as a story plotter, and writer when the visceral quality of the oot at least of the first film was made in the editing room and With the LSO scoring the film. Also the witty dialogue and snappy lines were not even written by him Their were written by Williard Huyck and Gloria Katz. Empire was written Mostly by Kasden with Input from Lucas, Kurtz and Kersh as well as the actors.
Kasden says to this day he did a final draft on Return of the Jedi to help George, but it is obvious the story was Lucas. On Jedi Lucas regained control over star wars to the detriment to the franchise. He brought in a a BBC documentary Filmaker sympathetic to him someone who Liked doing things on the cheap Richard Marquand. How much better would have Jedi been if it kept the adult tone of Empire was written well and had a real director of actors Like Kersh who buy the way understood drama, stage plays and shakepeare and good acting.
We all know what happened with Kershner out as Director of Jedi replaced by Marquand, and Kurtz Replaced as Producer By Howard Kazanjian a school friend of lucas and a yes man. We got Ewoks we got a kiddie esque film with Ewoks, and another death star. and the Pussyfying of star wars had begun. IT only took til 1999 for things to hit Rock bottom with Jar Jar Binks.
"These are Kiddie movies anyway so it does not matter that they suck. I am an Independant Studio i don't need film lets shoot on HD Video to save costs. I am an Indpedant studio so i don't need real effects i'll just do them in a computer to cut costs, I am an Independant studio so that is my films sucks at least i have an excuse."
These are Lucas escuses for the prequels suckage.
