I might even seem slightly less disingenuous if Lucas had a freaking clue how to make a good movie anymore.

George Lucas chastised the nation's universities for not treating the study of film in the same way they do other academic disciplines such as law, medicine, journalism, and architecture. "It just isn't thought of in the same breath, which is for me a sacrilege," Lucas said at a groundbreaking ceremony at USC where a 137,000-square-foot complex is being constructed to house the university's film school -- a complex made possible by Lucas's $175-million gift to the university. Lucas, who produced his first films as an undergraduate of the university in the mid-'60s, said, "When I came here I didn't have a clue about how to make movies, anything -- I didn't even watch movies. I was a real novice." Today's (Thursday) Los Angeles Times said that Lucas is treating the new facility "much like one of his cinematic productions," working with Urban Design Group of Dallas on the design of the buildings -- even "on such minute aspects as the detailing on the archways."


I like the quote, actually. He has a really good point. And as a theatre major, I feel the same way.

Not that that is going to stop you from dreaming… Only in this case, Gaffer is actually a guy.

I hate that I'm working monday to monday, every day, be it from home or from the office, and I've been in the office from yesterday at 7:30 AM until now - it's 5:11 AM of the following day, and there's no way I leave before 6pm today. AND... I'm not being paid for the overtime because the customer of the project I'm working for dosen't want to, so! I guess I'll have to sue...

Too bad Lucas doesn't have an iota of talent, vision or integrity as a filmmaker, just an army of yes-men.

I'd like a qui-gon jinn please with an Obi-Wan to go.

Red heads ROCK. Blondes do not rock. Nuff said.

Wow, that was harsh. I mean, he is the progenitor of all things Star Wars; he used to be a great filmmaker.

I don't see how you can just lose such a talent. Maybe you can get distracted and make mistkaes, but to suddenly become a bad filmmaker?

Well that's what happened with Lucas.

Must be kinda tough hearing that, but words are merely words and they have the meaning you want them to have. It's what you take from what is said to you that matters. So you can take that as a positive affirmation to yourself. Let her know she is wrong on saying that. Raise your head up and say "Nope. Not gonna do that. Gonna live and be successful and be happy just to show ya.". That's the best thing you can do, and you KNOW you can do it.

Alright? So take it easy, relax, don't let bad thoughts dominate your mind. I know this may sound useless and silly, but if you think about it, it does make sense. You are in control of your own thoughts. No use feeling sorry for yourself, feeling down. Just smile and say "Well watch this", and live the best you can. Alright? NOw that being said, I wanna see a positive response from you here. Cmon.

Well, you have to admit that that's at least one step up from a severely decomposed corpse.

Yes, but that was a VERY conditional 'if'.
