I heard that George Lucas allowed his friend Steven Spielberg to design some of the action sequences, including Yoda's duel with Darth Sidious, and Obi-Wan's fight with General Grievous. Spielberg also consulted on other scenes, such as the climactic battle between Obi-Wan and Anakin.

I thought Lucas was pretty nice allowing Spielberg to work in some part of the movie since they are best friends. I heard a few years ago that Lucas refused Spielberg in directing the one of the Star Wars movies. Spielberg said that Lucas was too possessive of his blockbuster space saga to let anyone else have a try.

"I've asked him. He won't let me do one," said Spielberg. "I wanted to do one 15 years ago and he didn't want me to do it. I understand why - Star Wars is George's baby. "

i heard that too. but he is not credited.

nope, didnt see him credited either

no credit for him lol GL baby this baby is big i think it past being a baby it almost seven lol

Source?

Spielberg helped on the Yoda-Sidious duel and the Anakin-Obi-wan duel. As far as Lucas letting Spielberg directing a star wars film your wrong. Lucas wanted to him to do ROTJ, and that was his first choice. The problem was that Spielberg is in the directors guild, and in order to direct ROTJ. he would have to drop out, but Spielberg did not want to.

Yup... Spielberg helped on the end Duels...

It is talked about in the Making Of book...

The direction of ROTS and the way the movie ran, seemed very similar to ROTJ, especially durng the duals

why does everything that spielberg touches turn to gold, even when it is shit?

yeah, AI was pretty bad

Yeah... AI was quite bad. It was originally Stanley Kubrik's film, but when he died Spielberg took over.... I think it would have been a much different film had Kubrik made it.

Yeah, its definetly seemed like a Kubrick film. I agree, Kubrick would have made it better

Yeah, but the terminal was far worse than AI. the terminal was one of the biggest pieces of crap i sat through. People ate it up though.

Sorry to be a little off topic but War of the Worlds, directed by Spielberg, is going to be an awesome movie this summer.

Here's hoping. Also another ILM and John Williams job too. Just to make it Star Wars related
