Anything short of saying Lucas is a Christ figure will be reviled by the apologists and sycophants as being a lucas "bash-fest".
I thought the book was great, nice work Zombie. You could have easliy gone much further in exposing lucas' fraudlence and deceit, but i think it was cool to frame the narrative as a contrast of how the OT was organic and somewhat accidental while the PT production was bland and sterile (and thats the best thing you could say about it). I also like how you exposed lucas' blather about "its supposed to be like the serials!! old-fashoined!! i intentionally made the movies bad because its supposed to be bad!!" were nothing more than cop-outs and excuses that could easily be discredited because most of the SW movies in fact bear little resemblence to the old serials (certainly no more than any other sci-fi action movie).
What I suggest to most fans and apologists is to read all of lucas' 'interviews' (which admittedly is difficult because he has given more than every other filmmaker in history combined) and track when and where he makes reference to the serials. What you'll see is, from 1977 to the early 80's, he'll reference the old serials when talking about how the idea of Star Wars originated but then will move to japanese movies, westerns etc. If you continue to track his 'interviews' post ESB and just before 1999, his references to the serials is trivial and the predominant theme of his talking points are the myths, Campbell, folklore and legends, etc. It isnt until after TPM and especially after LOTR does he backtrack from myths and props up the serials talking points.
Looking forward to next edition. Has anyone heard if AOTC is still coming out in 3D? 2012 is almost over and havent seen anything. or is that whole enterprise on hiatus?
