No, he's not there to make "fan" movies, he is there to make movies that have fast food tie ins and action figures. And did you just compare Lucas to Leonardo da Vinci? Enough said.

When Lucas overthinks things, he screws them up (freaking Greedo firing first on Han, come on). I am sure it will be a CGI mess and total crapfest. Plus, Harrison Ford is 1000 years old.

True George Lucas fans hate his movies. It is a hard life.

What's the deal with this quote: “Quick-cutting is very effective in some movies, like the Bourne pictures, but you sacrifice geography when you go for quick-cutting. Which is fine, because audiences get a huge adrenaline rush from a cut every second and a half on The Bourne Ultimatum, and there’s just enough geography for the audience never to be lost, especially in the last Bourne film, which I thought was the best of the three. But, by the same token, Indy is a little more old-fashioned than the modern-day action adventure.” and then: "Included is the first photo of Cate Blanchett who plays a Russian Agent Spalko." and then this from Wikipedia regarding the Bourn books: "However, unbeknownst (as yet) to Bourne, a Hungarian by the name of Stepan Spalko has now drawn Jason into a web—one which he cannot escape as easily as his professorial façade." Did you catch it? Spalko....WHAT?

Do it right? You mean do it like you would do it? A bit of a selfish comment i think...The film belongs to the film maker. We just get to experience their world...and I'm thankful for it.

I bet if you poll a hundred hardcore fans they would come up with a better story than Lucas did so f**k you for being one of his tard ass yes-men. it's people like you who suck up to him and don't hold him to any standards. YOU ARE THE PROBLEM!I have no resources, no money, no fame and I can come up with a better and more amazing story. That says something. Deal with it prick hole.
