Go away, George.

Well, he did announce in that interview that he’s finally divorcing us! What a loveless marriage it has been for so long.

I don’t know your age, but Lucas has been burping that same tired bullshit for 30 years. He can’t let go and he can’t take the high road. He’s mentally ill.

Eh, I think he’s being slightly better about it. This was his most candid moment since the sale, so far, and he’s playing the reluctant optimist (or at least he’s pretending to be curious). We’ll see what happens once the movie is out and he has seen it. I really can’t tell if it will be hate, joy (or feigned joy), or silence.

What’s delightfully absent from this interview is the “it’s mine mine mine” disrespect towards fans, an element that has indeed been present for decades.
