He came up with Leia being Luke's sister on a plane trip during ROTJ pre-production for Christ's sake! He has constantly contradicted himself regarding Anakin disappearing when he died. And he wrote all of the prequels as he went along with it... Now, as I've said before, there is nothing wrong in making it up as you go, but why lie to the media claiming you're a genius who concieved 4, uh I mean 3, uh I mean 2 trilogies back in 1974?


Just wondering, is there any evidence that Lucas literally made that up on the plane ride over? Wasn't that just Mark Hammil joking with George (as in, "Did you just make that up on the plane ride over?")?


I'll look into it, but I'm pretty sure he came up with that on an airplane or in the bathroom

OK seriously speaking, I got that from the Mark Hammil comment, which I belive was not really intended as a full joke, if he said such a thing, that's because no one knew about it before GL got aboard on the plane.

Am I the only one who thinks the CGI effects look fake?
Time
Now, I might sound insane, but the only moment I found the CGI Yoda to look like a puppet is in ROTS, when he is figthing with Palpatine and he falls and grabs into that senate booth thing, there's a 2 or 3 second shot showing Yoda from a distance, trying to hold himself into that thing, he looked like the ESB puppet during those 2 or 3 seconds.

Indeed, so you cannot call it "terrbile controller".

From what I've read, it'll probably feature a touchscreen in which the buttons will appear, depending on the game. When you're playing a NES game, for instance, you'll see the classic A and B buttons, when playing SNES, YXBA, when playing a different game which requires only three buttons, you'll get the three buttons, and so on...
