The part where George says he didn't "experience" Star Wars like everyone else going to the cinema knowing nothing about it, made me think that's gotta be one big reason why he doesn't understand the importance of preserving the originals.
Yeah, I have just finished watching this and I thought the same thing.
George says that he is 'stubborn' and 'Obstinate'. Really ? I had no idea !
no longer watch or read any of his 'interviews' (primarily cuz his lying is downright repulsive and all his 'interviews' are the same old crap he always spews). so im relying on what other people said - which admittedly may or may not be the appropriate thing to do.
so is he saying its hard for him to imagine why it electrified everyone in 1977 or that he never really was aware how much people loved it? if its the latter - well, he's full of shit. If its because he was down in the trenches the whole time trying to keep the film together (which I believe less and less as time goes by), then - what baronlando said.
i find it hilarious he thinks its cute to admit being 'stubborn' and 'obstinate' . and likely so does his apologists.
being obstinate is a pretty serious character defect. so is lying and selfishness and refusal to form normal functional relationships with other people.
oh well, its a start. at least he didn't play the artist card like he did before. he's admitting the way he carries himself has nothing to do with artistic integrity. maybe one day he'll admit the whole PT enterprise was just a fraudelent cash grab that would put any 'hollywood suit' to shame.
