He was kind of great in The Guyver.

Wing Commander motherfuckers

They were, weren't they?

I realize that little article Dolemite posted was on some fluff movie site, but, I felt legitimate sympathy for Lucas reading it. Not in any personal way, of course, but, in a sorta profound sense. I imagine that moment when you finally pack it in, and accept that you just don't have the ability to execute your own idea. Even with millions of dollars and state-of-the art everything, that no one is interested in your vision of your own creation.

I mean, if something I made was ever even proportionately as successful, I sure I could console myself with the windfall and move on to other things. But the notion that that fans sigh in relief discovering my name is not attached...oof, hard not to be bitter.

I was with you until I got up to the quote at the end: "The only thing I really regret about Star Wars is the fact I never got to see it - I never got to be blown out of my seat when the ship came over the screen. The next one, I'll be able to enjoy it like anybody else." which is the equivalent of a guy saying to the girl "The only thing I regret about fucking you, is that I couldn't be you and feel how awesome I am".

George Lucas is a genius and a seemingly nice guy, but he also has an ego, and this was on display in Episodes I-III.

I've been known to say that, but I'm damned awesome at fucking.

You guys have no idea how stoked I am that I'm getting to take Lily to this.

For a little bit, it looked like Ford would be the only one to have a career past the movies. But in the end, Mark probably had the longest and biggest impact.

Ford was Han Solo, Indiana Jones, and Rick Deckard. I mean, I love Hamill, but I don't think what he's done can compare to having three characters in your filmography like that.

No. Mark Hamil's portrayal of some guy in a comic book cartoon that most people will never see obviously has a bigger impact than being Indiana Fucking Jones.

[Josh]

For fuck's sake, they named the dog Indiana.

Ford was Han Solo, Indiana Jones, and Rick Deckard. I mean, I love Hamill, but I don't think what he's done can compare to having three characters in your filmography like that.

Well Mark Hamill was in Jay and Silent Bob Strike Back so obviously he has the longest and biggest impact.

EDIT: And don't forget Wing Commander.
