Do you think George Lucas is a good director????

Nothings clear when it's your opinion against mine. Try not to sound so "matter of fact" when you're putting your opinion out there.

Nothing is matter of fact. There are only opinons.

Well if ther is one thing that is boring its Godfather 2, the only good part was Robert Deniro when shown in the past in italy, that was the best part, seeing Al.P and the others was s o o o du ll boring.....

Tell that to yourself, man. You come across like what you say is the gospel. I make it a POINT to let everyone know it's strictly my opinion, as if they didn't already know.

What are you talking about? I post my opinions just like that, personal opinons. If you think that i think that my opinions are the only valid stuff is your problem, but nothing more different than my intention.

Oh, of course, a creative genius. How could I have forgotten? How silly of me.

'Lucas is a creative genious' is a statement, numbnuts, not an explanation.

*sigh*

I think some fans (not saying you) tend to confuse Lucas creative writting skills with directing. Which of course are two very different things. Sure, Lucas has a grand imagination but directing skills is something he lacks occasionally in certain films.

And, i forget one. I really think that the goodfather part two , as the first one, are two of the best movies ever.

Great director, but has some flaws.

Another factor on why I think Lucas at one point was a really good director but lost his magic touch around when Jedi was being filmed was he also made another great flick with American Graffiti which came before Star Wars.So in his early years he was a very good director I think.

Well anyway I think George was a good director he certantly isisnt a good directer anymore, the latest SW was a bit good, better then I expected, but nuthing to come close to the first 2 of the old trilogy, now his altest stuff wasint anything special thats fir sure, I was a bit pissed of when I saw the Ben Hur ripoff race in epi1, thats just as so today's directors, ripping of all the greats, I hope he wont make anymore movies, I think we'r better of wthout them, he sure did boost the Specail effects that I give him

Very well said Lord_Andres.I could not have said it better myself. 🤘 👆 👆

i think he's an awesome director

Let's not instigate one another.

The thing is, George Lucas, in principle, is an opportunistic hack. There's a lot to support this opinion, should anyone else share it, but I feel as if it's an underlying truth, and if someone were to put their mind to it, they could do what George Lucas has done theoretically. Tarantino has done it easily, except QT can write a coherent script. Lucas is recognized for his INFLUENCES more than he is for his actual accomplishments.

He makes more money than all of us put together, so who cares!

I do? Money isn't a measure of anyone's greatness.

That's true.
But some people think money equals greatness.

If im not mistaken, hasnt George Lucus done alot of the creation and improvement of special effects (ILM) and improvement of sound and video (THX)?

As a director though, not soo good. The last three Star Wars are an example of this. Just think if Lucus hired somebody like Chris Nolan to do atleast one of them, how much better the movie would of been.

One day some one will write a book about him, someone who worked along side him for years. One chapter will be about how he completely messed up the prequels, because of his own selfishness. How he couldn't do a love scene to save his fat arse. And how he made Natalie Portman look like a complete Dodo in Episode III. And you say C-Dic he didn't direct ESB, no wonder its my Favourite.
