Quote

You can't put a title card at the head of the movie and say, Well, we really had a bad problem. You know, the actor got sick and it rained this day and we had a hurricane.

I like to say that films are never finished, they're only abandoned.
George Lucas
Image
I would like to see our society mature, and become more rational and more knowledge-based, less emotion-based.
George Lucas
Image
I live a reasonably simple life, off the beaten track.

On the Internet, all those same guys that are complaining I made a change are completely changing the movie. I’m saying: ‘Fine. But my movie, with my name on it, that says I did it, needs to be the way I want it.’

Good luck has its storms.

I'm not in a contest. I make movies. I'm not a racehorse.

Everyone seems to think that digital technology devoids the medium of content, but that is not true at all. If anything, it broadens the content.

[Star Wars is] designed primarily to make young people think about the mystery. Not to say, 'Here's the answer.' It's to say, 'Think about this for a second. Is there a God? What does God look like? What does God sound like? What does God feel like? How do we relate to God?'

I must admit I suffered a bit when I first came to England. But then I realised that there was nothing to be intimidated by, everybody had two legs.

For the third trilogy, I don't know if I will still be alive when it comes the time to make them.
George Lucas
Image
I felt that one of the major issues in the third film is that Luke is finally on his own and has to fight Vader and the Emperor by himself. If you get a sense that Yoda or Ben is there to help him or to somehow influence him, it diminishes the power of the scene.

Real love is on the inside. It's somebody you have a common ground with, you share the same values, you share the same interests, you share the same humor, you share all those things that are things that will last you the rest of your life.
George Lucas
Image
I haven't met anybody who hasn't been able to describe years and years and years of very, very difficult struggle through the whole process of achieving anything whatsoever. And there's no way to sort of get around that.
George Lucas
Image
When a movie comes out, I always go off on a beach so I miss all the craziness that goes on, all the hoopla, and the hype and the success, and how much it's making, or whether it's doing good or whether it's doing bad. I just miss it all. I don't talk to anybody, and a couple weeks later I come back and it's all over with.

Digital technology allows us a much larger scope to tell stories that were pretty much the grounds of the literary media.
George Lucas

Sometimes people are surprised to learn that most of the films I've made don't work. They've been released but nobody has ever seen them. Maybe 40 percent of them are very successful. That's a very high percentage most people have maybe 10 or 15 percent of their films work.

I'm not much of a math and science guy. I spent most of my time in school daydreaming and managed to turn it into a living. When I was making Star Wars, I wasn't restrained by any kind of science. I simply said, I'm going to create a world that's fun and interesting, makes sense, and seems to have a reality to it.

Always remember, your focus determines your reality.

Storytelling is about two things it's about character and plot.

Follow your bliss. Do the thing where you sit down at 8 a.m. and then you realize you're hungry and you look up and it's 10 p.m. If you can find something you love that much, it doesn't matter what you do.
