He changed Hollywood again just as he did with the first Star Wars film.

I put more blame on Gus Van Sant and his abysmal Psycho remake for making Hollywood the way it is today than I do Lucas. 

But Psycho 1998 didn't make $450 million domestically. Look at Transformers, Star Trek, Amazing Spider-Man, and Man Of Steel. All those film franchises have been influenced in one way or another by the Phantom Menace (or the PT) with their over-complicated plots, over-reliance on CGI, and contempt for their audience.

It still paved the way for all the garbage remakes/reboots which have become Hollywood's current mistress.
