CAN'T HE JUST BUY IT BACK?
Aiden Gomez
Connor Cruz
Disney bought it from him for a price. That price is now quadrupled because it's owned by Disney.
Lucas Johnson
What makes you think he'd even want it back?
Jackson Lewis
That won't happen, user. Sorry.
Christopher Jackson
This
Ryder Watson
>Paid in Disney stocks for giving Disney the rights to his own movies.
You're really surprised he called Disney "white slavers"?
Jacob Walker
Georges leech family have spent all his money,
Cameron Thompson
FORGIVE US, GEORGE! WE WERE YOUNG AND STUPID AND EASILY SWAYED BY SHITTY INTERNET CRITICS!
Matthew Scott
Why would he? You didn't appreciate his genius.
Mason Martin
Why not? Better off waiting for Disney to waste all their money on Star Wars until they are willing to sell the rights for a pittance.
Daniel Mitchell
You know buying it back won't reverse time and undo the ST? He can't resurrect Fisher, convince Harrison and Hammil to come back and do a "good version".
Colton Ross
It's probably less valuable of a brand than when he sold it so maybe yeah
David Scott
The sellers remorse is far over with by now.
Jose Ward
Deep down we know he wish he never fully selled all of it. Should have made a license deal for some years.
Angel Carter
Yes
Isaac Thompson
He only sold it to them on the condition they ruin the franchise but not in a critically recognized way.
Easton Carter
>Deep down we know
No we don't.
Charles Nelson
Rumor is he gets royalties from his original characters, and that's why they are getting killed
Asher Edwards
He could just declare everything other than the prequels to be non-canon and continue where Revenge of the Sith left off, do a new and better OT.
Jose Martin
That makes zero fucking sense because Disney and Marvel are constantly pumping out comics starring the old characters. They're using them more than they're using the new characters.
They're killing them off because the actors are old.
Jack Robinson
Go outside, please
Noah Allen
I hope not. It would be worse in his hands.
Gavin Powell
The fuck are you saying, he accepted the money so either he didn't care or didn't care enough.
Nicholas Collins
He can't even if fans all over the world donated $10 just for the cause.
Isaiah Perry
Noice
Jaxson Murphy
sneethe
Bentley Richardson
>Gets AGRESSIVELY bullied away from the franchise
>Full on doctumenaries made over how hated he is
>All because he made some movies people didn't like.
>Meanwhile the exact same thing is happening to the CURRENT makers of star wars movies, showing people have learned absolutely nothing
>"He probably wants it back though!!"
Yeah nah. Star wars fans are some of the most toxic people on the planet and George knows that more than anybody. I'm happy he is finally free from you fucking spaztics.
Justin Phillips
Why? He still owns a lot of stock in Disney and Disney have to pay him a fee to use the OT/PT characters.
Nathan Foster
I literally don't understand the point of spreading this rumor. It's it supposed to make him look bad or something?
Luke Johnson
>why, yes, i listen to the Beach Boys, how could you tell?
Mason Collins
George-Lucas is old, why would he care about some old art he did.
Also he has the movie to make any movie he wants. He should a make a updated THX 1138 or something even more anvangaude if he wants to make a movie, or just enjoy being old and rich
Jaxson James
>paid in stocks.
Holy fuck was Lucas really this retarded?
Nicholas Kelly
*has the money to make..
Kevin Gomez
Let it die
Wyatt Barnes
You can sell stocks dummy
Grayson Long
stock should at least preform better than inflation, something even bonds cant do right now
Isaac Butler
He could live off the dividends alone... that still leaves him with $4bil worth of stocks to sell off when he wants.
Luke Rivera
Based frog
Zachary Davis
Comics have a low cost in production compared to movies.
Angel Sullivan
Why would it make him look bad?
Nolan Taylor
No its genius really
>Huge entity
>Sell one of the most profitable franchises ever to said entity
>get stocks in return ensuring huge income from said stocks as well as possibility of taking over said entity and making even more money
Bentley Green
With the amount of stocks he has, he's basically one of the head honchos of Disney.
Ian Gonzalez
Reminder the Plinkett reviews have yet to be refuted after a decade.
Jacob Ortiz
>Reminder the Plinkett reviews have yet to be refuted after a decade.
Plinkett is a huge faggot. Who wants to watch a review where a dude that sounds like hes having an aneurism while drunk is talking?
Jackson Roberts
In a couple of months, considering the devaluation of the IP, everyone can buy it.
Michael Powell
I wonder if user knows that Plinkett is a character.
William Roberts
NIGGA I GOT ALL THE MONEY IN THE WORLD
WHY WOULD I WANT TO BUY BACK RESPONSIBILITY
LUL
Jason Sullivan
Refuted how? It's just a series of opinions.
>I think Star Wars should use lightsabers more sparingly.
Yeah? I don't agree.
Lincoln Thompson
>can’t argue a single point made
>h-he talks stupid!
Cope
Dominic Sanchez
>Brainlets that don't know how stocks work
Gabriel Kelly
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Prequeldrones can't argue against RLM
HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Joshua Martinez
Fine you want me to argue against Plinkett?
Plinketts hatred for the Prequels are based on nostalgia for the OT. He wants those movies. He doesn't want the prequels, he doesn't want OT light in the sequels, he wants the OT.
That's it. He has OT fan boy autism. He whines about CGI and Jar jar, while ignoring the deeper storyline of palpatine slowly climbing his way to the top of government, and the jedi order having flaws and being prideful causing their down fall
Instead he ignores these parts, and complains about
>hurr durr dere goofy character in my movie
>hurr durr lucas no make OT again
Ayden Ramirez
He ruined a beloved trilogy first by ending it with teddy bears instead of destruction because he wanted to sell more toys and happy meals, then he went on to make a disgraceful film in Phantom, apparently high on huffing his own farts and thinking he could do it all himself.
He ruined Star Wars and turned it into a joke. Then he sold it to a bunch of people who made a slightly better, but still shit trilogy.
We can see pretty clearly now that much of the plinkett criticism was on point, and that the original trilogy consisted of many talented nerds who worked together to build something great. George was surrounded by yes men in later life, and should have recruited from a large pool of talent to make his films.
Dylan Murphy
>He ruined a beloved trilogy
>beloved trilogy
>ruined
Get your head together.
Caleb Allen
>literally fucking goes into detail about the plot of the prequels it in the review
Pls just go back to r/prequelmemes. Sheev posting was not sincere love for the movies.
It’s funny because political intrigue and the fall of the Jedi would be a good movie if le based George could write a script.
Jackson Murphy
Fuck off zoomie. Like you know anything about Star Wars.
Jedi was meant to end with nearly everyone dead and Luke walking off into the distance. It was meant to be dark, and nearly had Lynch as a director.
Gavin Watson
Michael Sullivan
>It’s funny because political intrigue and the fall of the Jedi would be a good movie if le based George could write a script.
I guarantee if George had made it look lived in like the OT and not used so much cgi, plinkett would be outside skywalker ranch trying to suck his dick
Landon Stewart
t. noomer
Michael Nelson
I love the prequels but I can admit that some of that is nostalgia since they were releasing when I was a kid. I would never argue that Episode 1 or 2 is as good as the OT but I still know they're well made, intricately designed movies with passion and drive in them. Why cant OTfags do the same?
Adrian Carter
>Slightly better
I don't think so, Jim
Cameron Thomas
Nothing about how he fucked it all up and should have done things differently and made better films, just waah people are mean about me ruining my cinema dynasty.
George should have taken a lesson form the Japanese directors he admired so much and issue a public apology, bow, and commit seppuku.
Oliver Williams
>Well made, intricately designed
Cgi background is not well made or intricate.
Ian Roberts
By any standard, nu wars is better than prequel. However, both are shit, so it's really just comparing the quality of corn in someone's turd.
Juan Ward
Star Wars movies have cheesy operatic dialogue by design. It is actually a part of the appeal, and seeing the sequels made me realise that.
Eli Edwards
Poor George, if anything good has come from nuwars it's that people have recognized some good in the prequels and that he was proven right. OT autism will never be satisfied, when you go in a different direction you get shit on, and when you basically redo the OT you put out shit and get shit on.
It's funny, I remember everyone saying only TPM "feels" like Star Wars but I think that's because it was mostly celluloid. Nothing nuWars has produced has felt even remotely "Star Warsy" while looking at the PT you can tell that it's the same universe, continuity, vision as the OT.
Cooper Barnes
Almost every background in the Prequels was either digital matte or a miniature that was composted into the shot of the actors.
Jaxon Gutierrez
That would have been needlessly dark. Darker isn't better by default.
Elijah Russell
>Jedi was meant to end with nearly everyone dead and Luke walking off into the distance. It was meant to be dark,
t. Lawrence Kasdan
Liam Nelson
I disagree. Not to say the prequels aren't dogshit for multiple reasons, but I think the fleshing out of the universe done in the prequels, poorly executed as it was, is leagues better than the nothing retread done in nuwars. By that metric, I think the prequels are better, but as you said the difference is so small it really is like picking between a douche and turd sandwich.
Benjamin Gutierrez
It is only canon when Lucas has wrote or supervised the creation of Star Wars media or products. Anything else is fan ficton including the new Disney movies.
Mason Thompson
>Lucas leads a shareholder revolt of Disney, gets installed as CEO
>announces more fairy-tale movies, several featuring Baba Yaga
>schedules a special press announcement about star wars in front of the lucasfilm building
>no announcement, after ten minutes of waiting kennedy comes out the door crying, carrying a cardboard box full of her shit
Asher Johnson

>Always Jew there are
Henry Bailey
Nah you're a fag. The only thing he did wrong was the Special Editions.
>We can see pretty clearly now that much of the plinkett criticism was on point
Lmao, quite the opposite. I used to think they were on point but I have come to realize how many of the criticisms are heavily biased personal opinion, pointless nitpicking, or just plain incorrect. He deftly avoids showing a lot of the behind the scenes footage that would contradict many of his points.
Plinkett is entertaining though, that's for sure.
Josiah Smith
That's gay. The ending to ROTJ is perfect.
Robert Rodriguez
The difference isn't that small. The prequels actually had a minimal of thought into the overall story while the sequels can barely keep a story together within two movies. Like, I hated AOTC the most of the prequels but there is a story with a character arc between TPM and AOTC. I can't even say that for TFA and TLJ.
Ayden Campbell
if you're already a multibillionaire, how exactly does your life improve by having more billions? would've made more sense to hold onto the thing which will eternalize you
george is retarded
Juan Sanders
>how exactly does your life improve by getting stock aka control of a company
Levi Garcia
Comics don't make money so the royalty surrendered is absurdly low.
Toys, merchandise, and movies are what bring in revenue. When they bring in revenue.
Dominic Morales
When did you realize that this board was unironically flaming dogshit for plebs?
Jack Gomez
You are welcome to disagree, but it doesn't mean you aren't still wrong.
I would rather someone shat a good solid corny shit on my forehead (nu wars) that I could then wipe off and move with my life after, rather than spraying an orbital anal canon of fetid stinking diarrhea that splashes all over me and runs down my face entering my eyes and nostrils and clogging my throat and staining my clothes and my very soul (prequels).
Kayden Price
That explains a lot

Josiah James
It's not even a bad line.
Isaac Cooper
Colton Thompson
Why is it bad?
Jeremiah Watson
The difference is enormous. It's like night and day. NuWars literally feels like a parody of Star Wars. Like the whole is tongue-in-cheek. The PT is completely sincere and full of passion.
Michael Robinson
All the passion of a 12 year old downie tasked with created a prequel to Star Wars.
Colton Brown
This^^
Spaceballs was more Star Wars than the sequels.
Adam White
That's half the appeal of Star Wars. It's like a child got all of his toys out, and staged a battle between cowboys and spacemen. That is the very spirit of Star Wars.
Luke Sanchez
Disney has damaged the brand. Lucas will buy it back at a scratch and dent sale when Dibsney has to make a $56B lump sum payment next summer. I'm gonna need about tree fiddy
Ian Russell
>tfw feds launching an investigation on the mouse
How fucked is the mouse if they are proven they did some stupid shit with their money?
Brody Campbell
No, the prequels aren't even 'so bad its good' fun to watch. Outside of a handful of scenes, they're boring and downright painful to watch. The only thing, the ONLY thing, the prequels do better than all the others combined is the score. John Williams put his heart into that shit.
Wyatt Collins
>macrotrends.net
Hrmmm maybe /biz/ can help me understand this
Isaac Bell
You write like a 14 year old who thinks he’s the smartest one in the class.
>turned it into a joke
It was always a hokey sci-fi joke. The prequels elevated the franchise from a set of movies to a full universe but you were swayed by some fat dweeb who can’t understand the value of creative/expressive artistry through contemporary technology (early cgi). Don’t you have homework?
Elijah Ramirez
>MUH BULLIED
The game made serious bank and by the time he sold star wars people already got over it and just occasionally made fun of George. Its not like he even cared about people making fun of him for the prequels considering that he even starred in a few parodies. He just wanted money and Disney was offering it, sure he may have regretted it but at the end of the day he just wanted extra cash and didn't sell because of some non existent pressure.
Jace Hughes
Even if you find the PT "boring and downright painful", the ST is 10x worse. It's like an AI created those movies, they're so soulless and nonsensical.
Jack Wood
This rumour makes zero sense, as he's paid in Disneybucks, he can't just sell them outright for dollars, he has to consult with other shareholders as he did when he got 400M out to buy his museum in Chicago.
Connor Anderson
Oh, I agree with you there. If I had to choose between the two trilogies to watch, I would pick the prequels every time. Those handful of scenes and score push it so far ahead of the sequels. Besides, I'd rather be bored than angry.
William Jones
Does he even have a life outside of Star Wars?
He's a turbo autist and divorcee who really didn't even like directing movies, he just wanted to produce and do tech stuff but now he has nothing to geek out about because he has no sci-fi franchise he can greenscreen to death and his scripts are so terrible nobody will ever make them without the SW name to lend them credibility.
Unless he just wants to chill out and smoke weed all day he'll need to get the rights back because it's his only connection to the world.
Easton Jones
I was in the cinema when phantom screened. I despised it long before people hung out on the internet.
You are a tedious little shit who only defends muh prequels because /pol/ told you to, seeing as they are so stupid they will defend anything or anyone in their holy permavirgin war.
I bet you have to divide your incredibly valuable time between defending Michael Jackson and defending Jar Jar threads. Get fucked boomer. Go back to Breitbart.
Gavin Long
if it involves tax fraud then very, nothing is able to avoid the IRS's wrath
Andrew Reed
Other than some people stepping down or the blame being pushed on to some underlings, they'll pay a hefty fine but nothing really will change.
Wyatt Rodriguez
He basically agreed to give Star Wars to mommy for good boy points, the deal he made is honestly ridiculous when you think about it. Everyone remembers muh 4 billion dollars, but in reality is 4 billions worth of Disney stocks, actually it would be worth 4.12 billion dollars now.
But then again Lucas was always a good businessman, so maybe he knows something about Disney that we don't and he actually expects his stocks to rise in value dramatically.
Colton Robinson
Half of it was in cash.
Jack Young
Tyler Kelly
Whole Disney deal was stock, 100% stock, he sold something like half a billion of it immediately after other individual shareholders agreed, but he never received a dollar per se from the Mouse.
Luke Howard
Did he really do any better with it? He got 2 good ones out of 6. Disney can still beat him at that rate.
Adam Mitchell
What's there to refute? They're imbeciles with imbecile-style opinions.
Daily reminder legitimately found Palpatine's uncomplicated usurpation plot confusing, that's how fucking stupid those guys are.
Julian Davis
Individual shareholders are not publicly known, but if I recall before the Star Wars buyout some analysts actually found out Lucas would be the second biggest owner of Disney, technically.
Bentley Reed
This. It's obvious Palpatine set things up that no matter which side won, he came out on top.
Jose Martin
Hammil would come back. It's a shame about Fisher but she was already pretty busted anyway, and no one ever gave two fucks about Harrison t b h.
Thomas Howard
>some analysts actually found out Lucas would be the second biggest owner of Disney,
LMAO
Oh Lucas, you magnificent bastard.
Owen Nguyen
How come there were reports he gave tons of money from the sale to charity?
Jaxon Cook
kek, fucking RLMdrones.
Andrew Howard
Tax write off, nobody rich donates to feel like a good person.
Easton Peterson
He already said he regretfed it years ago.
Remember the whole "white slavers" kerfuffle?
He sold it because the Plinkett Kool Aid drinking sheep fanbase made his life miserable. It was an emotional reaction that he almost instantly regretted.
Jason Scott
>/pol/
What kind of deflection is this? Just because you can’t appreciate world building and the creation of peak EU content doesn’t mean I’m whatever you’re projecting. Even throwaway titles like Jedi Academy did more for SW than whatever disney is shoveling out now. Kotor1+2 only exist because of the prequels. You’re incapable of appreciating the larger scale impact of the prequels, every shot has details you could indulge in to make your own thoughts about the world this takes place in. It’s stupid to criticize an opera for having static painted set design, you can immerse yourself in the story regardless so don’t whine about how you didn’t like the cgi either.
Jacob Williams
What a disaster of a post. This is actually a pretty great example of the sort of people RLMlets are. Just read this fucking shit and imagine, really imagine, the person that wrote it.
David White

Based 4d chess business plan, Georgie.
William Gray
>healthy
Jaxon Bennett
What does it matter? How much better can he eat if he has a hundred billion dollars instead of just a billion?
Aiden Evans
It was technically all stock, it's just that some of it he immediately sold back to Disney and it wasn't necessarily half of it, we only know about the amount that it was enough to build the black history museum that George always dreamt about, the rest is speculation
Caleb Cox
Lel
Lucas Long
Numbers and pic symbolism say we are both correct.
Carter Walker
>implying he and Disney hadn't been in buyout talks for decades
You just made my point even stronger. For decades he kept telling them to get fucked until the fanbase finally pushed him over the edge.
Noah Wood
Even if he did buy star wars back so what
He's wouldn't do anything anything with it besides maybe overview a video game or comic book or some crap based on it
Why do you think he sold star wars off to the mouse in the first place
Jonathan Nguyen
George Lucas is easily the most interesting man in Hollywood. He's also the only one that has a soul.
Ian Ortiz
What good would it do? Lucas can't save post-TLJ Star Wars anymore than Disney can. Nobody without a time machine or powers of resurrection can ever save Star Wars. It's done for. It's over.
Anthony Taylor
Lucasfilm must be involved in these films according to the deal and remains independent from Disney. He's just shifting the blame.
Ayden Miller
Lucas ain't Hollywood, but otherwise redpilled.
Samuel Parker
There is some good stuff like the costuming of Amidala, Naboo gungan architecture etc, but it is all stuff George had nothing to do with and would have existed without him had someone else written the script and been calling the shots.
I do not need to make the equivalent of a 9 hour RLM style review to point out one by one all the stupid shit and weak scripting and characters and plot in these films.
They are the type of films that are so bad and so soulless and disappointing that people can usually see it for themselves and do not bother making posts on the internet defending them.
Isaac Rivera
>b-b-but d-da sequels!!!
Isaac Morris
G.L. despises Hollywood to the core of his bones. He has always known it is a den of bloodsucking vipers. That is why he moved his base of operations to NorCal.
Austin Russell
Dude he made a big profit and he wasn't making anymore movies.
He retired.
Buying it back means he has to do work.
Kevin Gray
>but it is all stuff George had nothing to do with and would have existed without him had someone else written the script and been calling the shots
>Outing yourself as a brainlet this hard.
Fucking everything passed through George and hqd to get his stamp of approval. He he is the ine that poimted the designers in the direction to go then kicked it straight back to the drawing board if it wasnt good enough.
Connor Peterson
Stocks went up over 30 dollars since he sold (could be more I am thinking from memory).
If he bought it for 4 billion then he made another billion due to it being worth more.
Also Lucas has a voice in disney now unless he sold all of his stock like a retard.
John Bennett
>They're killing them off because the actors are old.
Too bad all the Finn dolls are still overstock.
William Sanders
>yeah he made a bad choice when getting $4 billion in stock when its priced at $40 a share and is now worth $132 a share
Jason Martin
You're wrong, the art teaml at LFL is basically unchanged since the special editions. The same people who worked on the prequels then went on to work on the cartoons and eventually on the sequels.
Different management, different vision - or a lack of it.
Oliver Morales
Some of it is, some of it isn't.
That's what makes the Prequel reviews perfect as reviews, regardless of the material they discuss.
They're a good blend of technical and peer review.

Liam Roberts
He owns a big chunk of Disney, based retards, that's the reason why KK is still in charge and Rian gets his Trilogy, Lucas arts is literally independent and nobody gives fuck when they make bad decisions or anti pleb decisions, they are protected by Lucas.
Josiah Young
I don’t think Plinkett even watched TPM. So Plinkett says that Valorum didn't need to send a commision to see if Amadila's claim was true, but wasn't the whole point that Valorum sent the Jedi behind the senates back?
Qui-Gon says thaf the negotiations will be short because people like the Trade Fed are cowards, so presumably Valorum had the same idea.
But the Jedi failed because of the Sith.
Valorum could have had the Jedi testify etc if they were successful, but they weren't, and he's already on shaky political ground. That would do him in.
And unlike many others we see in the senate, he's clearly a friend to the Jedi, going behind bureaucracy to use them.
Then Plinkett is saying that Qui-Gon should just steal the part from Watto, but that would mean Watto calling the hutts, which they can't have happen. Not to mention Jedi not being professional thieves, so they’d likely get caught stealing unless they succeed in mind tricking, which they didn’t.
Then Plinkett is saying that Windu should have sent more Jedi back to Naboo, even though the whole point is to draw Maul out, which he won't do if there are a whole gaggle of knights and masters there. Maul isn’t going to think he can solo an army of Jedi or even a large squad.
Luis Green
He knew it was a dying brand.
Easton Wright
>Lucas arts is literally independent
Uh yeah, since they're all unemployed.
Jacob Thompson
So I did some math
At the time george lucas bought eighty-one million disney stocks at 50 dollars each. (4.05 billion /50)
Now they are worth 133 dollars each.
He easily doubled his profits to 8 billion.
He made it big anons. With disney+ making stock go up to 150 dollars he would have tripled his profit.
Adrian Brown
You cant take it with you and nobody cares how much stock you owned when you die.
William Russell
>George was surrounded by yes men in later life
This is the worst meme.
He had as much control over ANH as he did the PT.
Carrie Fisher script polished TPM.
He had a co-writer for AotC.
Spielberg came in for certain RotS sequences.
Lucas was surrounded by people who constantly challenged him and his ideas. Carrie edited the scripts to ESB. Hamil and Ford would change the dialogue and tell Lucas it was awful. Alec straight up told Lucas it was rubbish. Glover (General Veers) forced Lucas into making Veers assertive with Vader. Filoni always talks about them bickering back and forth. Lee changed some aspects of Dooku's character, I mean where does this bullshit come from? If you bothered to watch the BTS especially the TPM the crew tear into him.
David Perez
When did you realize that Mike Stoklasa was absolutely wrong about absolutely everything?
Retard answer- After his TFA review.
Slightly slow but not quite drooling answer- after getting tricked by the Plinkett reviews and then over time realizing that Mike was just an asshurt nostalgiababby that framed opinions as facts and namedropped famous movies like Citizen Kane to sound smart.
Real nigga answer- At the part of the TPM review where Mike acts like Midichlorians demystify the force.
P.S.
George was the common element of the OT.
Kasdan and Kershner were not involved with ANH.
The Hyucks were not involved with ESB.
Kasdan was never good as evidenced by TFA. George was carrying Kasdan's dead weight.
George had no co director on the set of ANH.
Joe Johnston has said that ESB is "more of a Lucas film than a Kershner film".
etc etc etc

I am a prequel defender but you are wrong on this one. He was surrounded by yes men that worshipped the ground he walked on.
The faulty dramatic execution of the prequels would have been better if he had a true equal on hand to challenge him.
Bentley Rogers
>Carrie Fisher script polished TPM.
Funny story, rumour is that literally all quips and character moments in TPM are her doing and George's version of the script had everyone behaving like a robot.
Noah Richardson
who?
Charles Ramirez
Yeah no shit. How does anything you said provve me wrong? George is the only guy who could say yeah that one, not that one?
>Kicked it back to the drawing board if it wasn't good enough. My sides. George thought Jar Jar was just great, he came up wwith that idea and okayed that too.
You are basically implying that an artist cannot have an idea and create a concept piece without a director? You think George sat there with a felt tip and drew Amidala's costume?
Isaac Davis
>George will not sell off his shares over the course of time or will it to his children
Logan Smith
Absolutely based
Matthew Kelly
yeah... no. Hes millionaire, he doesnt give a fuck about the shit you say
Caleb Price
Believe it or not, Lucas has stated that he will not make his children billionaires. I'm dubious on that one, but it's his money.
Alexander Russell
On a side note J.J. is a one trick hack.
>Star Treck Destroy Volcan and kill spocks mom for cheap shock value

Adam Barnes
Imagine being so stupid and butthurt you forget how to greentext halfway through a post. Not to mention MUH JAR JAR, who is in no way any more annoying than, say, C3-PO. These are fucking kids' films, they're going to have characters like that. Deal with it you stupid fucking faggot, I wish I knew you in real life so I could slap the fucking tism out of you.
Daniel Anderson
>Not to mention MUH JAR JAR, who is in no way any more annoying than, say, C3-PO
That is a lie straight from Hell,
Dominic Nelson
You are fucking idiots if you think a fledgling director like Lucas was in the 70s has as much sway as a multi billionaire with his own studio/corporation.
You literally deconstruct your own argument in your own post. You state Lucas being surrounded by yes men later in life is a meme, and then demonstrate examples of how he wasn't when he was younger, and none at all when he was older.
You have proven absolutely nothing here. George's early concepts for Star Wars are widely available, and are terrible. Vader's brilliant conceptual design melding samurais and Nazis was almost certainly not made by him.
Why do you shill so hard to defend a shitty filmmaker who hasn't made good films since the 80s?
Noah Harris
That is just one example of a writer Lucas could have hired in 1999 or even today if he actually wanted to make a better film.
Charles Brooks
That is what /pol/tards do. Tell bald faced lies again and again hoping to find enough morons and angry 10 year olds to get it to stick. It worked for the god emperor trump.
Anthony Moore
The prequels were unironically the only actual good Star Wars movies.
Carter Brown

You fucking moron. Kotor 2's plot sucks dick, it just impresses double digit IQ types because they're videogame playing nitwits and they've never encountered a deconstruction before.
Ultimately though, deconstructions are kike shit and a Star Wars movie based off of it would be joyless and soulless. Imagine pushing moral relativism in a world where being evil literally causes you to physically wither. God, Chris is such a fucking moron.
John Peterson
Rlm has a poor grasp on what makes good storytelling and intriguing plots.
The show’s writing doesn’t used fact based logic and is simply opinion.
Ryan Jenkins
Ok let's do this. You state one of Plinkett's criticisms and we'll try to debunk it.
Daniel Edwards
George is literally 75. Best case scenario he's got maybe another 13 years of enjoyable life and then you decay so rapidly in your 90s.
He doesn't care anymore. Neither should you.
Ian James
>Vader's brilliant conceptual design melding samurais and Nazis was almost certainly not made by him.
Everyone knows that's by Ralph McQuarrie. Duh.
William Peterson

Should I be worried?

Cool rant Bruv. I don't give a shit about kotor. I was considering his work on fonv.
Logan Stewart
There was that user who did those video refuting him in his own style that I'm too lazy to find.
Kevin Nelson
All people who defend prequels will never have sex. Or are too young for their parents to allow them to. Debunk.
Ethan Young
The Colo Claw Fish Jumps The Plinkett?
Isaac Walker
I defend the prequels and I've have sex. I'm also a long way away from my parents. DEBUNKED. That wasn't a Plinkett criticism though.
Levi Morgan
It wasn't in his own style. And it was an underage autist child. Obviously.
Alexander Rodriguez
The prequals were an amazing story told shittily. The sequals are a shitty story told amazingly.
Production value is insanely important but if you have no backbone to the story, you're inert. The last jedi is a beautiful movie to watch, simply watch, but is rose anywhere near as compelling as even jexter dexter?

I said it was an user didn't I.
Jose Sullivan
>Joe Johnston has said that ESB is "more of a Lucas film than a Kershner film".
That's funny because George hates Empire Strikes Back and honestly believes it's the worst movie in the series.
slashfilm.com
From what I've gathered from reading behind the scenes Gary Kurtz and Kershner ran a costly production and was spending Lucas's own money quite flippantly. George stepped in and took control of Empire but he's always hated Empire for being a slower film. To George Star Wars should be fast and cheesy.
Ian Stewart
It is not debunked because of your word on an Etruscan buttplug excavation site incel, try again.
You need to post irrefutable proof of someone who has had sex defending prequels as actually really great films if you just stop and think about it.
Isaiah Williams
I snorted, but it wasn't though, it was some homeschooled nerdy type, probably fundie christian too.
Landon Peterson
The original request was for Plinkett criticisms
Nicholas Johnson
Actually, I'm digging the hole deeper. I take it back, you're right it was an user.
Nolan Martinez
Virgin confirmed, seething incel detected. You may begin your landing.
Nathan Cook
Made me laugh. I'm still hoping someone posts some top notch Plinkett criticisms so I can respond.
Jack Green
Good shit. Avellone's writing is still only decent by videogame standards, not real standards.
