George Lucas can’t handle the fact that people like the original versions over his “vision”
George Lucas can’t handle the fact that people don’t like his prequel trilogy.
So what does he do?
He makes the original versions of the films unavailable on a modern format and he incorporates elements from the prequels into the original trilogy.
He didn’t even take up Robert Harris’s offer when he offered to restore the theatrical cuts FOR FREE
I was so glad to hear about Lucas selling off Star Wars to Disney, because I thought this meant that the
theatrical cuts would eventually be released. Well, it’s been almost 4 years since the deal happened, and we still don’t have them. I just hope John Landis is right about what he said. Maybe I’m just too doubtful about Disney.

And then George Lucas sold the whole thing for 4 BILLION dollars. Why on earth would he still have a say in anything Star Wars related?
