I would feel a whirlwind of emotions. It's sort of the 5 stages of loss/grief I would imagine. He probably felt very torn. He made something so big that it's no longer his. Star Wars belongs to the world. The fact that he was a technical advisor and then was basically told "we don't need you" probably hurt. I'm sure deep down he knows the prequels were trash, and to see a good Star Wars film probably hurts, especially knowing he wasn't involved.

At first I thought this article was meant to be funny but I think it's actually very fitting and probably close to the truth.

Neck ties and boxing gloves.
He should have had some part in its creation.

Even if it's minor.

The guy played God and created a universe.

But he sold it out for money he doesn't need.

I know. Im fukked up and greedy. :sad:

$4 BILLION dollars is not enough for you to retire.... then there's something wrong with YOU...

I know this once I finish my book and they offer me like millions of dollars for the story and characters... It will have to be a damn near billion dollars.

:lolbron: See a 1 billion dollar check I would never have to work again, I'd stay in my bathrobe like 5 days a week, go to the supermarket with my slippers on. barely shave. fukk bytches in cardboard boxes, do so much weed I'd never come down. and sleep in my custom made hammock with a bottle of honey whiskey at the end of my day...

I think he sold it WITH his outline. NO one sells their baby without providing some guidance. The Mouse said yeah, okay then threw that sh!t straight into the :trash:.

He was hurt early on, when he made it well known that they weren't using any of his ideas. Ironically, they did end up using ALL of his ideas.

He should've never sold it if he was gonna be bytching about it. In the deal he should've had a provision put in that he at least be consulted, Mr. Lucas :ufdup:
