You'd think he don some clever disguise, and sit in on some screenings this weekend. ;)

Remember Chaplin? ;-) Lucas could go as he is and the audience would say that his "costume" is not realistic enough.

Well, Lucas gave another interview. And I have to say that I am giving up hope that he will ever release the original versions. What makes me really sad is that I don't give a damn anymore. Sure, my VHS tapes look like shit. But they are real and I can touch them (and watch them). I know that the colors are off, the resolution is crappy and so on.

I just read this (a review of TPM 3D):

Almost 13 years ago, George Lucas brought out the first of his hugely anticipated Star Wars prequel trilogy, and it turned out to be the biggest, dampest squib of modern times. It was a pop-culture calamity, a soulless, passionless film whose only real effect was to smudge the happy memories of the three originals.

And I realized that this is all he does. Smudge the happy memories. I hope that sooner or later we will have the original versions in great quality and we will be able to tell Lucas to go somewhere else with his vision.

I still hope for the original versions from some of the talented people here and not by Lucas. Because he would find a way to smudge the memories again.

Sorry, if I got a little too emotional there but I have finally given up on Lucas. (Not on Star Wars, though.)
