smooth wombat writes "Coinciding with the 30th anniversary of the Release of Star Wars, Ballantine Books is publishing J.W. Rinzler's "The Making of Star Wars", which bills itself as "The Definitive Story Behind the Original Film." The book is the result of Rinzler's discovery of interviews that Charles Lippincott, Lucasfilm's VP marketing and merchandising in the mid-'70s, conducted with the film's principals between 1975 and 1978."

    Stop giving these fuckers any more money. They are nothing now but a crap factory for raking in fan boy money. The Episodes I, II, and III make that clear. Just look at last weeks poll on worst scifi sequels.

      Could you remove the poll from your ass, so I can look at it?

    WTF was Lucas thinking when he filmed the three "prequels"? Didn't he make enough money from the original series to hire real writers? JarJar Binks alone should cement Lucas' place in infamy.
