In this case it's still true that he's not making it - he's passing the torch to others. I, for one, am glad of this, because I share the opinions that Heald has already given; Episodes IV-VI were strong, I-III were incredibly not. I will also remain cautiously optimistic, but I want to enter the movie theater with no expectations of any kind. I may do my very best to avoid seeing any trailers for it. (I may also fail this endeavor.)

On a tangent, I'm heartened by the news that Mr. Lucas intends to donate all $4 billion from the sale to education. Lord knows it's sorely needed! The man's filmmaking acumen may have slumped off, but he's a class act.
