@@MiffysGameRoom calm down pal. Also they arent idiots, they're good at making money, but that's it. So much meddling was done on these star wars movies, not one disney star wars movie had smooth production. Lucas ran into many issues but creative decisions wasnt one. Disney arent stupid, they're just ignorant on how certain movies should be made
George Lucas has so much wisdom. I just Love Geroge Lucas he has been a mentor for me through the biggest part of my life. It's so great that he shares his amazing knowledge with all that will listen. Highly intelligent kids too asking the questions. This was a fun interview.
Based on an interview I watched today of his lovely wife Mellody I'd say he no doubt is. Plus he stopped making films after Return of the Jedi in part because he wanted to raise his first three kids. George is such a great man!
I have never seen Bob Iger or Kathleen Kennedy speak a single word of wisdom like George does here. I don’t think they are physically capable of being anything but selfish. That is why they will never be able to replicate what George Lucas created. Damn do I wish he never sold
Slim Daddy did he? He had plenty of money from the six movies he made before hand and by owning Lucasfilm and ILM. He actually likely lost money by selling since he no longer get royalties from the Star Wars brand. I mean disney have only made four movies so far and have already made back what they spent.
@I am Supernaut he didn't need the money, he was already a billionaire. in another interview he explains he wanted to stop making star wars and make more experimental movies but had 2000 employees. so he couldn't let them down and decided to sell star wars so they can still have a job. kinda not selfish at all.
@I am Supernaut no he didn't He hated Hollywood but as he got older and fans got more intense (with the rise of social media etc...) He thought maybe he should sell to a company he once trusted but not really anymore
@@LFPAnimations he actually does technically still get money because if you ever look at the credits it says based on characters created by George Lucas so he still gets payed a little bit Also I'm pretty sure he still owns the Disney stock but I'm not sure He is the richest independent film maker with a net worth of 6.4 billion as of 2019
Omg I’m glad he went long on the last question, cuz my daughter is almost 2 and everything he said is true. I’m glad he talked about wanting to throttle them….cuz you want to, but you don’t. And the more you give to them (sacrificing your time and things you want to do) the better you prepare them for the future and the more well rounded they can be. My baby girl cried when we went to kindergarten today and she said “papa” many times and I was leaving, I’m not gonna lie, I almost ran back in and hugged her. They are the most precious and valuable thing you have after they’re born and I have horrible dreams of making a mistake and losing them. It really changes you. :)
This was 15 years ago, i was 10 - 11 years old when this happened, and yet...i relate so much with how George explains the struggle with addiction, thanks to God i'm not a drug addict but, i have an addiction to procrastination and...due to my resent loneliness, an sddiction to paying for company, i've only done it 3 times but, i don't wanna be tempted, and i know very well the steps to take in order to be safe and be by God's side, and that's what kills me the most...to know what and how to things right and yet...not being able to do it 😐
Thanks for the kind words & wisdom George you made my childhood with your clone wars anime style & adulthood with your lessons you even adopted kids which is the truest form of compassion even if you didn’t procreate them ,god will have a seat at the table in his house for you.
Plo Koon He’s not exactly the best person to be in charge as shown in the Prequels. The reason why the original movies turned out great was because he wasn’t in total control.
Blake Bolin he was in control of the originals. He got final cut and the studio butted out of his business on the original film, thanks to Alan Ladd, Jr., and he chose the directors for the sequels to the original and he worked with them to make Empire and Jedi as great as they are. He was very important in the success of Star Wars. Time to stop with the lies that he pretty much contributed very little to Star Wars with the OT. People did challenge him on the prequels when you watch the various documentaries, featurettes, interviews and listening to the commentary. You can hear people working with Lucas expressing how certain things may not be done how he’d want them to be done. He compromised and things were changed to be able to fit his vision as well as those working behind the scenes would be able to have a bit of a load lifted off their shoulders. The new Star Wars films are corporate fiction. They’re made by a company that believe they know what the audience wants, yet the audience isn’t happy with the latest trilogy. Either at the beginning or by the end, a number of people who were huge fans of the Disney trilogy have turned and see how they’re just rehash films with very little new offered. Reboots disguised as sequels. George Lucas had a vision for new films, those at Disney and Lucasfilm didn’t. If they ever did have one, it was thrown out the window when Episode VIII was being made.
Although it hurts me that George Lucas has left Star Wars and see the catastrophe that Disney has caused with the STUPIDITY of people who do not even reach the tip of the little finger in terms of creativity, I must understand that he has to do what he more he likes and what fills his life (and a man who has it ALL has it difficult). I have my heart broken into three thousand pieces to see how this man who told me the best story I have ever told in my life and no longer want to do it, I have a child inside this body of 40 years crying in a heartbroken and I must try to calm down. However, I can not be so selfish and think that the great George would remain enslaved to a work for which he gave more than half of his years of life. Although I can not stop thinking how much wisdom we are losing with a new trilogy written and directed by him, the guy went from being a Luke to being a Yoda in real life. In this interview you can see how he talks to these young people about happiness in life, important and transcendent things, this is what made Star Wars movies important, the wisdom that their creator gave them. George, I understand, go and do what makes you happy and may the Force be with you.
I agree. I have my opinions too and I think it him and the old good Star Wars everyday. I pledge the rest of my life to fight and make stories like George did and still can do
Such a caring and loving man. Always admired him. The hate he got at the time was unnecessary. Sure his films (The Prequels) did have a lot of issues but creativeness wasn’t one of them. Music too. He can tell a story that connects the dots, it was just the execution that wasn’t so great. But not all movies are perfect. Perfect films are the most boring. Flaws make films better, that is if they are at least consistent. You should have the creative freedom to do whatever you want with your film, show, anything. Don’t make it a certain way just to please people. We’re not here to please anyone, we’re here to do what we love and make the best out of it. We’re not perfect. We’re just human.
This is wonderful, I really enjoyed the knowledge shared by both the students and George Lucas. I was very intrigued by the "pleasure and joy" scenario. Will Mount Madonna School have George Lucas back for another interview?
The man's literally a genius and a sage and yet there are so many people dedicated to hating him and diminishing his accomplishments. It's sad, but also a predictable pattern that has repeated throughout history.
@@craighicksartwork well maybe he thought it was best for the franchise as he still wanted creative control. And of course some of the backlash of the prequels but he did offer his services and was turned away
25:32 Everything after is the most insightful thing I can take away from Geroge Lucas. Not saying everything before wasn't insightful but it's this is what hit me
But we wont treat other adults how we love children just like how he says when they become teenagers they couldnt care less about what they go do...i had a lot of the same perspectives as George as a kid. Hopefully i find my path in this world and live it like he did his.
“Hi I’m Luke” 😂😂😂😂😂 The part where George Lucas talks about desire and the need to have something now or you will loose it for me is haunting because I do have an addiction to high fatty foods. When I’ve tried to discipline myself & stay away from bad food immediately you think you will never be able to have it & this creates compulsive behaviour.
Why are there so many religions if there is only one God? Because there is another one, false god: Satan. And although he may be one, he loves many religions, that’s for sure.
There can only be one GOD and His name is JESUS. He wants you to use it so that HE gets the credit and glory. That’s why we exist. It is your choice though. He has some of the truth without the entire picture.
If your aim in life is happiness, you're screwed big time. Or you've inherited a billion dollars and you can live like The Dude. Young people never changed and will never change "the system" because one cannot change something one does not understand. Also the lack of understanding about the world means the young will always fall for the powerful propaganda of the old people.

George Lucas is the greatest story teller ever
Such a kind and warm-hearted fella. Glad he exists, and cares about the existence of others.
I guess it's kind of off topic but do anyone know of a good place to watch new movies online ?

@Beckham Emerson you are welcome xD
This kind of wisdom cannot be manufactured, Disney...

Lucas is as wise as Yoda. The whole pleasure/joy theory is spot on.
A very wise man to pass on the lesson of compassion. So much of that missing in today's youth.
I knew it, George to me always seem to be a nice guy! Even with all his wealth.
Respect.
What an amazing nice guy, with such warmth and wisdom. I bet he's a truly great friend and family man.

What a lovely interview to give us a great and valuable insight into this most remarkable gentleman.

everyone talking about George Lucases Wisdom,but noone talking about *Fact* this man is *The Force*
Thank you for making this interview, I benefited a lot from it.
Glad you enjoyed!
@@MMSvalues Please try to do another interview with George Lucas. I really enjoyed this one and could listen to him for hours. Thank you.

the whole jedi council in one seat 🙂
Good interview. Every now and then it's good to rewatch.
Get this legend back involved in star wars please
He actually is! So we're told though! They approached him for story treatment for Episode IX
@@DionSidney GL did for 7 and 8 too, but Disney doesn't actually take his advice or suggestions as we saw how Disney treat GL and Star Wars

Wise words. Learned a lot from George in this video.
The man the myth the legend. The Jedi grand master Lucas himself. 🙌🏾🙌🏾
This was filmed on my 13th birthday. Alright!
That's crazy, that was also my 13th birthday!
Our age difference is likely only a matter of hours.
Disney, listen to the wealth of wisdom and knowledge you turned away.
That wealth of wisdom gave them the reins! He sold it for a reason.
@@craighicksartwork well maybe he thought it was best for the franchise as he still wanted creative control. And of course some of the backlash of the prequels but he did offer his services and was turned away
George Lucas and Michael Sandel are my two favorite humans when it comes to "people who have wisdom"...Thank you, Mr. Lucas.
25:32 Everything after is the most insightful thing I can take away from Geroge Lucas.
Not saying everything before wasn't insightful but it's this is what hit me
How was the sound done on this? It sounded really good but I didn't see any lavalier microphones.
theres a pretty fine 180 line, plus with the 3 camera set up i would say they have a boom mic overhead
Unbeliveable how much this guy is smart
Might be one of the if not the smartest and wisest man on earth
Beautiful interview!
2:16 Hi I’m Luke haha
No one:
George Lucas:
That one kid with 70´s hair: Hi, I´m Luke
😊
I truly admire George Lucas for everything he achieved, his only flaw, the only thing he ever did wrong was selling his life's work to Disney.
Great Interview thank you.
Great Interview
😍😍😍💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💦💗💗💗💗💗💗💗✨✨✨my ears, mind, and spirit needed this💦💦💦
You're the best George

All very New Age indeed. George Lucas as a guru. What could be better.
That felt like life advice from Yoda. Loved it

I respect this man I wanna say as equally as JFK, MLK, and many other men and women.
In some sense he searched for something Jordan Peterson wrote in Maps of Meaning
GL would've been a great History teacher.
✌POWERFUL✌

He’s literally becoming obi wan
I like Lucas but I don't get the whole religion thing.
It would be funny if life were all just about adictions. Hence the term High on Life, which is prob the best one to be tied to.
Or eating and he point at that girl. You could see she was self conscious about her weight. Lol she rolled her eyes the next time they showed her.
You really have a poor man's point of view if this is the best comment you can make about this wonderful interview...
Why are there so many religions if there is only one God?
Because there is another one, false god: Satan.
And although he may be one, he loves many religions, that’s for sure.
Those brats have no clue. And you can easily tell that Lucas is not impressed.
So many fallacies here. Here he classifies all religions as one...
There can only be one GOD and His name is JESUS. He wants you to use it so that HE gets the credit and glory. That’s why we exist. It is your choice though. He has some of the truth without the entire picture.
Don’t mock or patronize me devil
He’s a nice man, he needs JESUS,
Asking a thief about spirituality. How rich!
