Lucas directed Star Wars. Any. He's an awful director in almost every aspect. Some of the worst acting from extremely talented people I've ever seen because he doesn't know how to direct them.
Take the same cast, story, massage the script, and have ANYONE else direct, and it'd be great. I just can't with Lucas.
I think George Lucas would agree with you.
While he directed the first film, Empire and Jedi had other directors. When it came to the prequel series Lucas really tried to get someone else to direct, but everyone turned him down as the project was "too daunting".
Lucas is best as the idea guy.
Not true, they did this already with Ep7.
My hot take gets hotter...as flawed and problematic as they are, I think they 7-9 are better. The bar is THAT low in my mind for 1-6.
