He can turn a stick into a raygun and do anything with anything. This is the FX Lucas of the seventies and eighties.

Versus a kid with lots of toys with no imagination.
This is the kind of person that the "malfuntioning R5-D4" toy was made for. This is the CGI Lucas of now.


Brilliant. I couldn't have put it better.

When Lucas lacked the dosh for an effect he was forced to come up with a creative story way around the problem. Now he has all the tools and all the money and the lack of creativity in the new stories is abundantly evident.
