Let's give credit to the real hero of Star Wars, Gary Kurtz.

George Lucas shot an awful, clunky, and disjointed film. Kurtz saved it in editing. If George Lucas had the control of Star Wars he was given for the prequel trilogy, well you know

the hell are you talking about? kurtz was a producer. he mostly clashed with the director of photography. there was a team of editors that included george lucas for the first film.

"star wars", in its original form, is still one of the cinematic gems of all time. it's the definition of film entertainment.

No.

Most of these changes were Kurtz overruling Lucas.

George Lucas has proven time and time again he is a failure when he has complete control over a movie. I present you with Howard the Duck and the prequels.

yeah he was part of the production. he wasn't the sole reason the film was what it was.

Wow! Ogie taking W_Z to the woodshed. Looks like we have a new source for all things cinema.
