I would have had Kasden write the screenplay, had gary kurtz produce and Kershner direct.

Lucas only as a story consultant and executive producer to make sure the film does not go over budget.

The French New wave of autuer theory of filmaking, and USC taught him to be proficient in making films that were uniquely his films. Thus Lucasfilm. The plots stories and direction of the films were not determined by the hollywood banker types and shysters lucas found it distateful to work with.

Pardon me if I misunderstand, but on one hand you seem to be praising Lucas for his autuer-ness, and on the other saying he should step back and just be a businessman and let other people make 'his' films.
