It is just amazing to me how wrong and out of touch with his own universe Lucas was and always has been. I know, that is an oxymoron in every sense of the word, but he even got his own core characters completely wrong.
For instance, I heard a Mark Hamill interview the other day. He says that Lucas hated Anthony Daniels and was furious with him because he was playing 3PO like a clumsy butler, instead of his vision of a used-car salesman. It was the support of the other actors for Daniel's and his vision that won through and made it onto the screen.
Lucas is just a guy with a wild imagination, that fancied himself a writer/director when he was not. Thank god he turned everything over to Disney. If only it had happened 20 years ago...

Star Wars A New Hope and Empire Strikes Back is largely thanks to Gary Kurtz. The man developed the entire concept of the Force as it was presented in those films. Lucas's wife along with Kurtz rewrote the script for A New Hope. Lucas's original script was a pastiche of Kurosawa films and some spaghetti western styling's.
He was sorta right, in that J.J. has made the new movies more like Star Wars than previous Star Trek films. Whether that has made them "bad movies" is subjective.

Maybe i went paranoic but didnt a blaster shot in Into Darkness (jungle chasing scene) sound like a star wars blaster being fired? Same with a door opening on the enterprise sounding like a star wars hangar door unlocking? Granted this was only in the 5 minutes into the movie, but i think he made kinda "sound-cameo" here.
