He would be the final director of the 9 part saga, he brought that franchise to life to begin with. Wouldn't it be great to see him finish it?

I think either JJ Abrams or Rian Johnson (if "THE LAST JEDI" is Successful) should Direct "EPISODE IX".

no that would only be poetic justice but not the best for the franchise. He just does not want the job anymore and, arguably, he was never that good at it anyway.
(Disclaimer: I take it all back if they decide to hire Hack Hack Abrams again...!)
But I want G Lucas to be CREATIVE consultant regarding designs, story etc ASAP. Right now it looks like there is nothing iconic or original in Ep8 either (AT ATs have guns on their backs now! snow-speeders look like crushed B-Wings and pod racers, we get A-Wings back, we have Bird-Ewoks now...great!!!) - SW without that imaginative element is a derivative, dumb space opera.

I think he "finished it" when he directed The Phantom Menace. Directing is not exactly a strength of his. Being a creative consultant behind the scenes would have been preferable, not that it would ever happen given the way Disney shut him out of the Force Awakens. Nor do I believe Disney will stop at Ep 9 in any case. They didn't buy a cash cow to stop the saga after three movies. |

I think he should be a creative consultant and producer. I agree, The Force Awakens seems so generic. The prequels, if nothing else, were unique and stand out. |

We just rescued the franchise from him (in so far as the new ones are at least entertaining), and you want to throw it back to Mr. Sandman?
What they need to do is keep hiring Lucas' creative consultants. The people that saved the original trilogy from Lucas' bad ideas. The people he replaced with a bunch of timid yes men on the prequels.

Personally I'd be quite happy if he's never let near a directors chair again

Didn't he basically say he's retired?

No. First, its doubtful they stop at 9. Second, if he would have wanted to do it, he wouldnt have sold the right to Disney. And third, i dont think Disney have any interest in him.

The best thing I can say about George Lucas is he directed and wrote American Graffiti.

WEll obviously he should, considering how many fans would be pissed off.
