The People Vs. George Lucas

George Lucas

There is some sort of indie or fan film project underway, due out in 2009, seeking to flesh out and understand why there is such divisiveness among Star Wars fans. More specifically, their feelings towards the choices made by George Lucas following the original Trilogy. The structure will be based on several hot topics of debate. Seems as though they have been accepting fan submissions of videos. The writer/director is Alexandre Phillipe. I guess we should make a video?
