"I also care deeply about our fans and it was important to have someone who would carry on the passion and care that I've given the films over the years."

"Care deeply about his fans", give me a break.

Sure, if he really have given the films this passion and care over the years, why did a film collector need to save his ass back in the '90's when he couldn't find a print of Star Wars in good condition for his so called "restoration". Why is the original negative deteriorated, why are the color separation masters incomplete. Why does he refuse to provide The National Film Registry with prints. Why oh why doesn't he let a true restoration happen?

 

Lucas: "You have to go through and do a whole restoration on it, and you have to do that digitally." "It’s a very, very expensive process to do it."

But the passion and care is there, right?
