After seeing what Disney did to Star Wars, George Lucas at least produced something decent with the prequels.
Comment on Dakota Johnson on ‘Madame Web’ Blowback: “I’ll Never Do Anything Like It Again”
JoMiran@lemmy.ml 8 months agoThe best known opposite example is Star Wars (A New Hope). When George Lucas screened it for Spielberg, Spielberg didn’t know how to tell George how terrible it was without ruining their friendship. George gave his steaming pile of shit to his wife and she and her editing partner literally built the classic we know today from it. George learned his lesson and gave Empire to someone else to direct and his wife to edit.

George is the most overrated director of all time.

One hit wonder as a director. And that hit is American Graffiti, not Star Wars.
