[QUOTE="Dire Bare, post: 5816647, member: 18182"] Heh, suffice to say you and I disagree. I've read the entire thread, and I have seen absolutely no evidence that Lucas is lying or has gone senile. I suppose you and I (and others, of course), don't see the presented "evidence" the same way. Why did I post originally and continue to post? I already answered that one. I find the vitriol that a segment of fandom has towards Lucas ridiculous and irritating. It's a pet peeve of mine. Why did Relique post? Not to put words in his mouth, but I imagine because he finds George Lucas ridiculous and irritating. I often see such things from the perspective of the artist. George Lucas doesn't owe you or I a damn thing. The Star Wars films are his art pieces, we don't have a say in what Lucas chooses to do with them, and neither should we. Creating movies, writing novels, painting, and other art forms are not democratic processes. Our role as fans, as consumers, is to enjoy Lucas' movies . . . or not. We can love, hate, or have mixed feelings about his artistic choices, but we don't own Star Wars and have no rights to it. Even if we have spent our own good money on the films and surrounding merchandising. I understand the importance of Star Wars and other artistic franchises in the lives of fans. As I stated before, I've been a huge Star Wars fan since I was in elementary school. It's been a big part of my life for most of my life. Just like the Dungeons & Dragons game we all gather here to discuss, and have equally odd arguments over (IMO, of course). [/QUOTE]
