Also people praise Gary Kurtz but other than being involved with The dark Crystal and Return to OZ after leaving Lucasfilm what has he done?

Not even the Godfather has had the impact on generations of people that the original star wars trilogy has.

Gary's latest project. Maybe you've heard of it. ;)

It's sad that when the AFI picked Star Wars to represent the entire 1970's for a retrospective of movies made in the 20th century, Lucas missed the whole point, and mandated they show the special edition instead. :(
