I still admire Lucas as filmmaker and artist (despite his recent stuff with OT releases). He is/was a true visionary. Basically he came up with something completely new for each of his film (THX, American Graffiti, OT and PT). Many other filmmakers basically just scavenge around for existing stuff (good made-up screenplays/stories or interesting real-life stories) to make their films on. Martin Scorsese is a prime example of that.
