Here's a list of tons of leftist movies.
They're so desperate for him to come out as an arch conservative who hates gays and women and renounces the films. SW continues to live rent free in reactionaries heads.
I don't think George will ever do that. Mostly because he doesn't care any more and also because he seems like a huge lib with socdem tendencies. Pretty sure he was also against the Vietnam and Iraq war.
How is it even possible to run a youtube channel named "Woke Busters" without immediately dying from embarrassment
Busting makes him feel good
I’m a woke buster

Woke and Bust
Don't worry honey, smooth faced AI George Lucas can't hurt you
There are so many fucking pictures of the guy on the internet, why the fuck did they need to generate a shitty photo lmao
Didn't George Lucas say that the soviet directors could do pretty much any movie they wanted as long as they didn't criticize the goverment too much?
One of the reasons I retired is so I could make movies that aren't popular. Because in the world we live in, in the system we've created for ourselves in terms of, it's a big industry, you cannot lose money. So, the point is that you have to, you're forced to make a particular kind of movie.
And I used to say this all the time, with people, you know, back when Russia was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, and they’d say, "Oh, but aren’t you so glad that you’re in America?" And I’d say, well, I know a lot of Russian filmmakers and they have a lot more freedom than I have. All they have to do is be careful about criticizing the government. Otherwise, they can do anything they want.
Nerds cried “how can you say that? You’re a billionaire!!” If you’re poor and hate capitalism, you’re jealous. If you’re a billionaire and hate capitalism, then you’re not allowed to hate it
Rainbow washing the empire tracks nicely with the IOF, doesn’t it?
Nobody tell these racist fuckups that Lucas is married to a black woman
I'm totally out of the loop, but even gay people can be homophobes; marrying a black person does not entitle you to a get-out-of-racist-jail card.
It doesn't and it bears remembering. I was making a flippant dunk
Curious as to what he actually said and what mental gymnastics they did to interpret it as "woke bad."
Has he even made a public appearance since selling Star Wars? I imagine it’s some 2008 interview where he says some shit like “yeah we haven’t had a female character because the audience didn’t react well to it”
I think it’s because of that interview where he responds to criticisms about Star Wars being “all white men” and “women don’t do anything in the series.” Nothing really stood out in particular but the anti-woke crowd keep sharing it.
I really really struggle taking posts like this serious. It's a screenshot of a YouTube-preview that has a clickbaity title and shows me a very badly done ai-rendering of George Lucas.
I kinda like George Lucas. He's not perfect. he created a few really great films that might be considered slightly "woke" compared to the times they were created in. He mostly keeps out of the spotlight these days and only from time to time tells people who don't want to listen that - "yes, the storm troopers are definitely named after the nazis" and "yes, of course the rebels are like the viet cong (pretty embarrassing for you that i had to spell it out for ya, isn't it?)".
In my mind he keeps in his lane and hasn't become convinced that his success from yestertimes is making him a much needed voice in all kinds of modern political discussions that definitely needs to add their two cents from time to time to allthefuckingtime.
The WOKES won't like this one: WOKE DEFECTOR admits to WOKE PROPAGANDA PROGRAM to WOKIFY the CHILDROKE of AmericOKE boke spoke gnoke done woke woke wofp spof SPOFT GROKH KUNK VOKE! VWOKEKE! VWOKEKE!!!
