Ironic, since there's stories about Lucas having to reign Spielberg in on "Raiders"
GL: "OK, Steven, you said you were just going to kill 'a couple of Germans in this scene."
SS: "Nazis. I'm killing Nazis. I like Germans."
GL: "Fine. How many is 'a couple'?"
SS: "1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6....10 guys. That's 'a couple'."
GL: "That's a dozen!"
SS: "George, I'm making a really big movie here."
GL: "Yes, I realize that, Steven, but there's a difference between a simple murder and a cult massacre!"
Are those actual real quotes? Did Spielberg actually get overenthusiastic about killing off Nazis?
Taken from "Skywalking - the Life and Films of George Lucas". I have an original copy from the mid 80's. Don't know if subsequent releases were edited or changed in any way.
Wow! I'll have to take a look at my copy. It's as if Lucas couldn't stand the thought of a bunch of Nazi's getting killed.
