I think we are all better for having George Lucas. We wouldn’t have Pixar, ILM, or LucasArts without him. OG Star Wars and American Graffiti were legitimately good. Every other film he did was garbage, however.

His ex wife was why the OG films were so good, and why every Star Wars film after the divorce was such trash.

Honest question, why didn't they hire her later?

[–] Mirshe@lemmy.world 4 points 21 hours ago

Because Lucas was one of the last auteurs, and believed her moderating influence was absolutely ruining his vision.
