Something is wrong with George Lucas - I think this article says it pretty well, but also George needs to remember what got him to where he is now... brilliant directing, writing and actors. Now he seems to hate actors and anything else that isn't generated by a computer.

Not that making animated movies is a bad thing - but while losing his love for all that is non-cg he seems to have also lost that human touch to his scripts and everything else about Star Wars.

Wall-E is more human than Star Wars will ever again be ;)

Nice article. The only reason I convinced myself to go see the movie was that Lucas didn't direct it himself. He worked himself sick on the original trilogy and then didn't have to make any effort for the prequels--I think that has something to do with it. And he's just a bad writer in general.

I really like the animated format, though, especially the stylization in the same vein as the Cartoon Network shorts. It keeps them from having to replicate the actors too closely and falling into the uncanny valley. And I admit to laughing at "Sky-guy" and a lot of the Anakin-Ashoka banter. But then, I'm a mindless fansheep. ;D
