George Lucas, where have you been?

Filed under: — adam @ 4:37 pm

Wired article on George Lucas and his desire to finish up Star Wars and get back to real interesting filmmaking.

http://wired.com/wired/archive/13.05/lucas_pr.html

The relevant quotation from Mr. Lucas is this:

I’ve earned the right to just make things that I find provocative in my own way,” he says. “I’ve earned the right to fail, which means making what I think are really great movies that no one wants to see.

To which I have only this to say:

“Holy shit, George – what the hell do you think we’ve been waiting for?!? You earned that right 20 years ago.”
