George Lucas
George Walton Lucas Jr. (born May 14, 1944) is an American filmmaker and entrepreneur. Lucas is best known as the creator of the Star Wars and Indiana Jones franchises, as well as the founder of Lucasfilm and Industrial Light & Magic. He was the chairman and CEO of Lucasfilm, before selling it to The Walt Disney Company in 2012. Upon graduating from the University of Southern California in 1967, Lucas co-founded American Zoetrope with fellow filmmaker Francis Ford Coppola. Lucas wrote and directed THX 1138 (1971), based on his earlier student short Electronic Labyrinth: THX 1138 4EB, which was a critical success but a financial failure. His next work as a writer-director was the film American Graffiti (1973), inspired by his teen years in early 1960s Modesto, California, and produced through the newly founded Lucasfilm. The film was critically and commercially successful, and received five Academy Award nominations including Best Picture. Lucas' next film, an epic space opera titled Star Wars (1977), went through a troubled production process; however, it was a surprise hit, becoming the highest-grossing film at the time, as well as a winner of six Academy Awards and a cultural phenomenon. Following the first Star Wars film, Lucas produced and co-wrote the following installments in the trilogy, The Empire Strikes Back (1980) and Return of the Jedi (1983
Darth Vader: Calrissian. Take the princess and the Wookie to my ship. Lando: You said they'd be left at the city under my supervision! Darth Vader: I am altering the deal. Pray I don't alter it any further.
Your weapons, you will not need them.
Luke: All right, I'll give it a try. Yoda: No. Try not. Do... or do not. There is no try.
Ready are you? What know you of ready? For eight hundred years have I trained Jedi. My own counsel will I keep on who is to be trained. A Jedi must have the deepest commitment, the most serious mind. This one a long time have I watched. All his life has he looked away... to the future, to the…
Luke, you can destroy the Emperor. He has foreseen this. It is your destiny. Join me, and together we can rule the galaxy as father and son.
Han Solo: You said you wanted to be around when I made a mistake, well, this could be it, sweetheart. Princess Leia: I take it back.
Princess Leia: [annoyed] Why, you stuck-up... half-witted... scruffy-looking... Nerf-herder! Han Solo: Who's scruffy-looking?
Luke: I won't fail you. I'm not afraid. Yoda: You will be. You... will... be.
Luke: I want my lamp back. I'm gonna need it to get out of this slimy mudhole. Yoda: Mudhole? Slimy? My home this is!
Don’t worry about Master Luke. I’m sure he’ll be all right. He’s quite clever, you know, for a human being.
The city’s central computer told you? R2-D2, you know better than to trust a strange computer.
Wait. Oh my! What have you done. I’m backwards. You flea-bitten furball!
You simply have to put one foot in front of the other and keep going. Put blinders on and plow right ahead.
You can’t do it unless you can imagine it.
Strong am I with the Force, but not that strong. Twilight is upon me, and soon, night must fall. That is the way of things. The way of the Force.
Strong, am I with the Force...but not that strong. Twilight is upon me, and soon night must fall. That is the way of things...the way of the Force.
[strains to speak as voice gradually grows softer] Remember, a Jedi's strength flows from the Force. But beware: Anger, fear, aggression—the Dark Side, are they. Once you start down the dark path, forever will it dominate your destiny. Luke...Luke...do not…Do not underestimate the powers of the…
I do. Yes, I do. Sick have I become, old and weak... When nine hundred years old you reach, look as good you will not, hmm?
