"Actually thinking of cutting cost is a scary concept   for a lot of studios, Mccallum contiunues and especially a lot of  stars.But we are not inhabiting that mental landscape at all. WE DON'T HAVE THE HIGHEST PAIN BEHIND THE SCENES TALENT. wE HAVE EVERYBODY WHO WORKED ON YOUNG INDIANA JONES. THIS IS THEIR  SHOT TO MAKE THEIR NAMES AND THEN GO OFF AND MAKE AS MUCH MONEY  AS THEY WANT TO. BUT SOMEBODY ELSE IS GOING TO HAVE TO PAY THEM FOR THAT, NOT US."

That guys is almost amazing to hear. The most  anticipated film of all time and lucas  waned to pinch pennies.Well  we all see the results dont we?

 

The flaws of the PT have nothing to do with money spent.

George Lucas is an independent film auteur who answers to know one and funds his own films. I think complaining that he didn't spend enough money reeks of a childish sense of entitlement.
