It's basic sour grapes. JJ et al made a far better Star Wars film than he, with every means a his disposal, could have made at his point.


His own megalomania and micro management would have ruined any effort he came up with. Which is exactly what happened with the prequels.

The made-for-TV Ewok movies are about a bajillion times better than this movie.

I just finished The Battle for Endor and holy shit it made me cry like a baby. Where's the sequel where Cindel is reunited with Wicket and Teek?! I need closure!

Man, I felt a stronger connection to Cindel, Wicket, and Teek than anyone in the "real" SW movies, including the OT. Fuck.

It's probably just because Warwick Davis and Wilfred Brimley are terrific actors.
