What was his major malfunction?

What was his major malfunction?

scared of losing the ones he loves to the point where he becaimse bad

bad writing and direction

can't act for shit, mind-numbingly bad storyline

He didn't have any heelys to pop wheelies to hide his feelies

They made the Prequels about him, even though nobody asked to see Annie turn into Vader.

Lucas can't direct actors for shit.

so here's a question: how much fucking trouble would Christiansen get into after he contracted to play anakin skywalker (which i assume was before the phantom menace came out) and then read the script and then realized that it was a garbage film that he couldn't possibly salvage with any amount of acting - and then just quit or pretended he had cancer or something and quietly backed out of the project? Of course he would get a little hurt in money but it would have saved his career.

He got sand in his shoes

Its hard to act upset when you're with Rachel Bilson in real life.

When Father abandoned Creepio, that was the beginning of the end of the "Jedi Bender".

what was that movie again that was ok, but went complete retard the moment Rachel Bilson appeared?

autism

this

Lucas should've just written a treatment for the prequels and stayed on as a producer and technical advisor. He then should've hired a team of writers to write the scripts and some up and coming directors who are good at directing actors.

None of the actors are really bad, except for Padmes

They had nothing to work with

They had Lucas giving them a terrible script and terrible direction and even when they could act they where interacting with a CGI character or set most of the time, so the actor is just looking at a green screen not knowing what anything is or how to react to it

Its hard to emote when this is all you see

RAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

WATCH IT OBI!

Trips of truth

Literally no one can make the script of these movies work. Even Ian and Ewan, despite their generally fantastic performances, still have utterly awful dialogue

Have you never seen him behind the scenes with the highlighters?
He has some sort of compulsion driving him to be the final word in every single second of the project, there isn't a chance in heck that he would've agreed to sit pretty as a producer.

Lucas literally tried to do exactly that, but no other directors wanted to touch the franchise. He ended up getting Spielberg to ghost-direct for RotS.

How the fuck are you meant to act on a volcano, dumbass?

NNNYOU TURNED HER AGAINST MEE

5>4>6>7>3>1>2

This is objective truth.

Literally Borderline Personality Disorder.

Is psychology literally this retarded?

close, swap 1 and 3

YOU WILL TRY

you WILL tryyy

>implying his career would go anywhere

Also, when Brad Pitt asked the cost to get off Interview with the Vampire, it was $40 million.
Christiansen isn't a big name, but Star Wars is a far bigger name than a book adaptation.
The cost to leave a movie being equal to the actor's paycheck from his last movie (plus the cost of dropping the movie and losing pay) is still many, many millions.

Lucas attempting experimental scriptwriting on a major production.

>dude let's take the structure we had in the first trilogy, and invert it
>so you want to start after the conflict has been resolved, and work backwards to exposition?
>yeah, but we'll rewrite everything so it works.
