JesusIsGonnaOwnSatan Posted May 17, 2013 Share Posted May 17, 2013 This is probably common knowledge to your average SW trivia buff, but it's still pretty awesome. It's a pretty well-known bit of Star Wars trivia that George Lucas had serious problems with assembling the first cut of A New Hope. Apparently, Lucas was so depressed at one point that he took a vacation to visit his friend Steven Spielberg, who was working on Close Encounters of the Third Kind at the time. According to Celebrity Networth, Spielberg revealed that, while on set, Lucas made a bet with him regarding Star Wars -- a bet that has continued to pay off handsomely for Spielberg ever since.

Taak Farst Posted May 18, 2013 Share Posted May 18, 2013 Guess the joke was on Lucas. The jammy sod. Kudos to him keeping to it, though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
