Before it's too late. Star Wars will live far longer than any of us, and there will be dozens and dozens of new movies and TV shows. George isn't going to live forever. The window for making new content by the original visionary is closing.
And honestly who cares if it sucks? If we're going to watch bad Star Wars content anyway, I'd rather watch something created by George.

I disagree. There would be many who can write good Star Wars scripts. They just aren’t being employed.
Lucas is like Stan Lee. He had a winning formula but that doesn’t mean that he’s the best or even good at writing decent material.
The prequel trilogy was mediocre. Just because it’s better than the sequel trilogy or Boba Fett and Obiwan isn’t saying much.

George Lucas doesn't want to do anymore Star Wars projects. There's a quote from him years ago where he essentially asked, "Why would I want to do anymore when all everyone says is what a horrible person I am?" He's done. He was done when he sold the franchise.
He's also retired from big projects and isn't involved in the next Indiana Jones movie either.

You think Lucas wants to deal with the "fans" again? Why do you think he sold the property?

Star Wars is not/never will be the same without George Lucas. Most properties just should not continue without their original creator. A lot of people today just cannot grasp this concept. They think everything is like a comic book where it can be endlessly rebooted and reinterpreted. It’s not easy to just pick up someone else’s creative vision and run with it. This is why everything since Force Awakens has felt like fan fiction. Disney should have at least used him as a creative consultant and actually listened to him.

I don't believe, that would improve it from what they have made so far.
I personally think, that the best sw films they could possibly make at this point... are the things they have made since Disney bought star wars.

It’s crazy how much public perception has changed since 2012.

Just because it’s better than the sequel trilogy or Boba Fett and Obiwan isn’t saying much. The story of the prequel is better than the original trilogy IMO. It's just that he needs someone else to be in charge of dialogue. I think Lucas should write an outline for a trilogy with the major story beats and then have someone actually write the screenplay.
