I think this is for the best. Lucas was at his best when he was working on smaller projects. His later projects became about the special effects and it was at the cost of the stories and characters. Don’t get me wrong, I still love his work, and by doing stuff like the new Star Wars trilogy he’s advanced not just special effects but technology as a whole. Now that he has all this experience that he’s refocusing onto smaller projects I think he’s going to have some really good productions in the future.

I don’t care what he does, I just wish he’d leave Star Wars alone.

Tell it to someone who cares, George. What is so difficult to understand? Release and preserve the dang original films.

awwww - you guys hurt George Wucas feewings. You guys are meen

Seriously, George, why’d you mess with the originals. LOTR has 15 billion versions (really, like 15 billion) including the original. I know it’s your baby…but dude, really?


Had to share this with you guys. Also put my feelings about this down here.

Well. Seems warner bros might make a movie out of John Twelve Hawks books. I loved the first book, had some very interesting concepts in it. Even focused on paranoia and post 9/11 watchdog fears. Panopticon indeed. The second book got a little weirder. I never finished the last book because I forgot about this series. Check out some of the stories about the books author also, he is a weird dude ( I mean if its not just an amusing ruse).

Torchwood fans, go ahead and keep hope alive…but I might suggest a suspended animation:
