lying about it).."

Sorry to see you have such a shallow and pessemistic view on creativity. It doesn't matter how much money you have, why should that make your standards drop? If you have something you want to make, do it right. You have no excuse not to, especially if you are literally drowning in money fans of that series have given to you already. When you have such a loyal fanbase, you should care what they think, after all, if it were not for them you never would have made it that far.

i would agree with you up until a certain point..

why have the prequels, and everything after them generated more revenue and

income for the Star Wars franchise, greater than anything the original trilogy ever did?

(even with inflation) ???????????

if people really cared about artistic integrity and value, they should have all been flops,

every movie should have failed miserably, and all the interest in Star Wars should have

died off, instead the exact opposite happened....

what kind of message does that send to Lucas?

even if he actually cared about how well the movies did (obviously he doesn't, look

at the lower results for the 'clone war' movie)...................... why should he bother stopping,

when people continue to validate his efforts regardless of how well they are critically

received or not..

and my pessism is based on human nature, and experience, and not on some

altruistic, or superficial view that people remain true to their nature of always

seeking good, or doing whats best for others, as opposed for their own interests...

later
