Reminds me of a younger version of my self and placing such trust in one George Lucas.

Do you mean before you saw the Phantom Menace?

Because obviously Lucas had already done the star wars holiday special and Howard the Duck.

As for Steven Spielberg that man is not immune to making a turkey either, he made this big budget disaster called 1941 that almost made sure he would never direct another movie.

Lucas and Spielberg seem to have godlike powers these days and are invulnerable, they can make horribly crappy films and still get very rich doing so. War of the Worlds and Crystal Skull were absolute shit and so were the star wars prequels. Lucas can make anything Star Wars and Indiana Jones and make money on it it seems, well except for Young Indy that was an experiment that did not make lucas tons of money, and all the networks and fans thought it was a turkey despite showing some promise.
