Anyways, the paradoxical relationship between GL's involvement and the quality of the film just proves that he is one of the greatest frauds of all time. He just managed to keep the deception going for 15-20 years. Try watching American Graffiti or THX 1138 again; neither has aged well at all. SW as we know it is a masterpiece in spite of Lucas because of the editing his ex-wife and three others have done to make it great. If GL had his way with those first two films he would have been rendered a footnote by now.
