Um, he already made his Simple Jack - Regarding Henry. And it has some great Simple Jack moments (and what makes it doubly hilarious is that before he's an a-hole lawyer[emoji38])

Not coincidentally, written by JJ Abrams. That guy's been polluting screens for nearly three decades.[emoji38]

Forgot about that one, I'll try not to be angry that you reminded me of it's existence. [emoji38]

On a side note, is anybody else still having trouble getting on the forum? It's rare that I can get in here at all.

Holy crap what is Iger freaking thinking revealing this just 12 weeks before IX!

This is amazing honesty by Iger i?m blown away that he?s actually revealing this stuff:

Disney CEO Bob Iger says George Lucas was disappointed at first after he saw the sequel series' first film.

Recently, Iger shared the story of Lucas' reaction to Star Wars: The Force Awakens upon his first screening. The CEO chose to include the anecdote in his latest book, Iger?s The Ride of a Lifetime: Lessons Learned from 15 Years as CEO of the Walt Disney Company, and it was there Iger said Lucas "didn't hide his disappointment" over The Force Awakens.


According to Lucas, there was "nothing new" about the film which caught his eye or interest.

"In each of the films in the original trilogy, it was important to him to present new worlds, new stories, new characters, and new technologies. In this one, he said, ?There weren?t enough visual or technical leaps forward.? He wasn?t wrong, but he also wasn?t appreciating the pressure we were under to give ardent fans a film that felt quintessentially Star Wars," Iger explained.


"We?d intentionally created a world that was visually and tonally connected to the earlier films, to not stray too far from what people loved and expected, and George was criticizing us for the very thing we were trying to do."

I wish we were in a parallel universe where George's sequel trilogy *and* Rogue One existed. But as much as I'm curious as to how George's ST would have turned out I'll take RO.

Seriously! "Yeah in case anyone wants to know if this is really how Luke, Leia, and Han would have ended up nah it's all just fan-fiction that George hates. We sure fooled him! Anyway enjoy TROS that wraps up, um, 'the Saga' [Iger doing air quotes.]"

lol
