Considering all the "revisionist history" we've been subject to from Lucas over the years ...

I never give a second thought to anything Lucas says anymore, nor have I for many years. I automatically assume it's bullshit belched out to fit whatever the situation may be.

When I was listening to interviews in 08 about Kingdom, or watching all the interviews on the extra DVD after I had it, I gave no credence what so ever to anything he said. I just waited until it was Spielberg, Ford, Allen, Shia, etc. I see him as completely untrustworthy. I know for a fact he's lied about all things Star Wars77, so there's no believing him ever again.
