The "STAR WARS" Franchise pretty much made George Lucas's Great Grandchildren Set for Life!

Heck, whose the only one of the five to have a Criterion release? Bay with Armageddon! It's crazy that with basically just one franchise (Star Wars), Lucas is the richest director. The other guys on the list have many, many films, Lucas just has a few outside of Star Wars.

Star Wars has always been a blessing and a curse for George Lucas. A documentary like "The People vs. George Lucas" goes into detail on something like this.

I'm surprised JC hasn't cracked a billion considering two of his films have made twice that (And iirc, he put a lot of his in money into them)

I imagine a huge chunk of Lucas' cash is from lucrative merchandizing deals. Who knows how much money he made over the years through toy sales. I don't recall a "Titanic" line of action figures. LOL.

He's only directed 6 films (4 of which are Star Wars) true, but I don't think the list shows their net worth just from directing. His merchandise deals made him a fortune, he makes money from all the Star Wars and Indiana Jones projects, he did/does make money from ILM and THX sound system, to name a few.
