I wonder why McCallum is so annoying. Is it how he kept the prequel productions running smoothly? Was it butting heads with Lucas about making parts of Episode III's production more difficult than it needed to be? Was it how he helped secure Ewan McGregor, Natalie Portman and Liam Neeson for their roles? Probably because he did his share of spin-doctoring, people want to treat McCallum like he was just another yes man but seems to me like he was a production manager more than a creative contributor, and he's never claimed otherwise. I realize Gary Kurtz is thought to walk on water and everything but can we try to be objective here?
