    I love that George Lucas was in it for the love of the game. He’s a true artist.

    People love to shit on his creative decisions in the prequels… but at least he wasn’t making them for the vapid commercially driven motivations infecting everything now a days.

    Dude was passionate about making cool movies in new ways; and he succeeded.

        TBF they made some really cool toys. Like the “extending nested plastic sword” for lightsabers. All the lego sets. The video games. I played the crap out of OT side scrollers. The Star Wars trading cards predate Pokémon.
