If you had your choice, would you have wanted George Lucas to stop after 1977?

I wish he had given up Star Wars to other people after ESB and had concentrated on other things.

That is more or less how I feel.  He should have left ROTJ - and any potential prequels - in the hands of Kurtz and others.

But if Kurtz is to be believed, he would've gone with the downbeat ending to the film.  We'd already had that with ESB.  The story has to have a celebratory ending, like it or not, otherwise it's sending out completely the wrong message.

 

Having enjoyed the Star Wars films, every single one of them, I wouldn't have wanted anyone else to have creative control over them.
