He sold out. He said he won’t do anymore films. He had some choice words for Disney when he said he’d sold his children to “white slavers” but then backpedaled and later said he was happy with the fine job Disney was doing with the films. Whatever your personal thoughts about Lucas and his role with the franchise to date, there are some who want to see him return to directing the films. In fact, there are some who wish to see this so badly, they’re petitioning Kathleen Kennedy and Disney via Change.org to bring him back. l750
As the petition reads:
Bring back really want this, please .
We have no problem with Colin Trevorrow , but he’s not the right guy to Star Wars and the whole universe of the galaxy far, far away ….
We would like to see him again involved with the franchise. Thank you so much.

I really liked my friend, Chris Pirillo’s tweet about this petition:
Good luck. You’re gonna need it. https://t.co/kcCeldVg1Q

Honestly, he’s right, IMHO. I know there are many who will claim “Lucas IS magical with Star Wars. That said, it’s time to leave the directing to others.
What do you think?
