How can one man be so based ?

Lucas was Sheev all along.

>Based
>Sold Star Wars to be butchered by Disney
>The original trio didn't get to act together in a genuinely good movie one last time
>This is the same man who wrote the prequels, complete with Anakin being utterly unlikable and Padme fucking dying despite Leia's recollections in Return of the Jedi

Lucas hasn't been based in a long time.

the fat fuck knew it all along

Kek this would be the ultimate checkmate.

Did you literally not read the original green text?

He owns a shitload of Disney shares so he wanted and fully expected Star Wars to do well after he gave it up. He overestimated Kennedy's competence though, in addition to selling his own talents short. You could sense his disappointment immediately after TFA.

Still, he must be feeling pretty vindicated all the same these days.

sounds great will he do a prequel to the prequel?

This would be the best timeline.

The prequels are still shite tho...

3 kinos about midichlorians hopefully

7,8,9 is making 1,2,3 look like 4,5,6

>Yoda origin story
>Yoda's Jedi master
sounds kino indeed throw in a baby chewie and it's a hit

>You could sense his disappointment immediately after TFA.
No sensing was needed, his disappointment was on display for all to see:
>“These are my kids… all the Star Wars films,” Lucas told US TV interviewer Charlie Rose of the beloved series he launched in 1977. “I loved them, I created them, I am very intimately involved in them.”
>When Rose interjected that Lucas sold the Star Wars franchise for $4bn [to Disney in 2012], the latter replied: “I sold them to the white slavers that take these things and…” before laughing and leaving the sentence unfinished.

The imagery of the prequels is incredible though - some of the best and most interestingly composed visual films ever made.

No dubs have ever been more true (throw in young sheev also)

Star wars has always been shite to me. Only decent one is empire, and even then i can't see it because i hate (((american media)))

Don't use the snyder defense.
Just because a film looks good doesn't mean it isn't shite.

>The labyrinthine opening shot of “Revenge of the Sith”— of Anakin and Obi-Wan giving chase to Dooku through the space vehicles on the planet of Coruscant—is a mighty and audacious gauntlet-throw, the digital equivalent of the opening shot of Orson Welles’s “Touch of Evil.” It wheels and gyrates and zips and pivots with a vertiginous wonder that declares, from the beginning, that Lucas had big visual ideas and was about to realize them with a heroically inventive virtuosity. And the rest of the movie follows through on that self-dare.

>If I had seen “Revenge of the Sith” in real time, in a theatre upon its release, in 2005, I think that, at the moment when Palpatine (Ian McDiarmid), sizzling in the blue lightning that Mace Windu (Samuel L. Jackson) reflects back at him, cries out to Anakin (Hayden Christensen), “Power! Unlimited Power!,” I would have leaped out of my seat yelling with excitement. The entire movie is filled with an absolute splendor of the pulp sublime, and that moment is its very apogee. Lucas reaches historic heights in the filming of action: the martial artistry of Anakin and Obi-Wan’s double duel versus Dooku, the gaping maw of outer space and of the airshaft into which the heroic duo drops, Obi-Wan’s light-sabre fight with the four-armed Grievous, and, above all, the apocalyptic inferno of the confrontation of Obi-Wan and Anakin (which, regrettably, cuts back to Yoda and Emperor, a much duller battle). I watched these sequences over and over—happily, with the sound off to get rid of the musical score—and was repeatedly and unflaggingly amazed by Lucas’s precise, dynamic, wildly imaginative direction.

Brody is 100% right.

ROTS is pretty decent. I even enjoyed parts of AOTC.

Nope...even if Disney Star Wars sucks it doesn't matter, prequels films are freaking awful and you should feel bad liking them.

What's them again, it's boring, it's ugly, no good acting or stories. All 3 movies are freaking too long and there is like 2-3 good at best.

Fucking Anakin talking about love and being emo it's fucking bad and and makes Dark Vader looks bad because of this.

If one thing worked for the prequels is how Star Wars Universe was still going on with games and books, the movies are fucking shit.

The real bad thing about Disney's movies is trying to make up their own lore and shit's like that and it all fucking sucks, no good games and anything else, even the toys nobody wants it.

Star Wars is dead and it's not because of bad movies but because Disney didn't know what made Star Wars good, it was what was outside of the movies and the universe, fuck them to destroy that.

What's it like to be a mouthbreather from 10 years ago?

The palpatine story ark of his rise to power through playing all sides off against each other is absolute kino.

Anakins transformation into Vader was poorly executed however.

>Lucas destroyed the Empire of Disney
>the prequels were reedemed in the end, just like Vader
>brought balance to the Force once again
It's like poetry

What happened to his neck and how can I avoid it? I already have a bit of a double chin and probably drink too much beer.

Based Lucas and fuck SW fans.
All their whinging about the prequels, forced him to do this.

Based review

is there any proof that he still makes movies for himself

not like he got caught up in a soi induced reality and that now he can't barely operates, because he was not able to cope with the backlash of the prequels

Well said

Weird jawline and he shaves the neck part of his beard but leaves the rest

He's said in a few interviews that he was going to but by the way he said it it sounded to me like it's something he'd already been doing in the past. Keep in mind by films he means short experimental films with a few actors athe most and a lot without any actors at all

BASED

This is literally what happened.

Y'know I just thought of something, Yoda claims to be about 900 years old and Obi-Wan, SORTA, claims that the Jedi acted as the Republic's peacekeepers for about 1000 years. Depending on how much they want to fuck with the remaining EU lore they could make a Yoda origin story about the first Jedi who go to work for the republic.

Sounds pretty S O I and pathetic. Also the NY.. terrible.

if JJ can add that alien chick from TFA I'm sure they might go that route but no way do they cut straight to Yoda focused flick

How can Christensen get anymore JUST? He's literately been replaced by the Clone Wars voice actor for Anakin.

I'm gonna go ahead and press A to apologize for all the plinket shitposting I took part in over the years. I didn't think the mouse could do much worse when I found out he sold but I was pretty oblivious to the gamergate thing and had no idea the culture wars on the horizon would engulf everything in shit. I was wrong jorge.

My understanding is that he hired Kathleen Kennedy as co-CEO before selling to Disney to helm the transition because he thought she was someone he could trust. Once he sold, Disney could hire whoever they wanted. Now this woman has proved to be inept and incompetent in every way, yet she's still employed by Disney. Some people think that's because she got some dirt on top people. I believe she was snitching on George on behalf of Disney and was rewarded with the job, even after failing miserably, they owe her something.

Disney is bigger than Lucasfilm. Even if Star Wars is failing, his shares are going up thanks to Marvel and the other departments. I think he genuinely wanted to see people take his legacy and make new movies based on that universe. He said it several times that he never got to see Star Wars like we did. All he wanted was experience it like us, be surprised by new stories and characters, but the fuckers can't even provide that! He doesn't fcking care if Lucasfilm fails financially. It wouldn't be the case if they were doing good movies, but that's not on the menu.

god imagine if he buys it back for under 1b

I have the last jedi for 3d bluray, but christ alive, I didnt make it past the opening dog fight
>general hugs?
I felt fucking ill, domhnall gleesons speech in the force awakens sold me on the new repubilc menace, sure tfa sucked, but i wanted to watch him become a secondary antagonist, loyal only to snoke that it undermines ren, yet in the matter of 3 minutes, I was told to FIST MY OWN FUCKING ASSHOLE AND IM RETARDED FOR EXPECTING A GOOD FOLLOWUP

TFA isn't as bad as people here make it out to be. Yes it copied a lot of points from ANH but JJ really did set up so much stuff that if Rian bothered to not be a fuckhead, Episode 8 could have been amazing.

Finn should have been the new Jedi. Best part of TFA was see him one on one Kylo because I actually felt tension. When Rey fought Kylo there was no tension. She was already too powerful. This easily could have been fixed by making her some reincarnation of Sheev but of course we can't have the good girl be the bad guy. Watching Finn turn into a complete walking blanket in TLJ was a huge disgrace. Fuck Rian Johnson.

He literally bought Disney shares with that money
