George Lucas Says He is Retiring
--------------------------------
We've heard this before from George Lucas, but he tells
The New York Times that Red Tails was his last big
project at Lucasfilm.
"I'm retiring," he said. "I'm moving away from the
business, from the company, from all this kind of
stuff."
The newspaper adds that the 67-year-old Lucas was
careful to leave himself an out clause for a fifth
"Indiana Jones" film, however.
"Once this is finished, he零 done everything he零 ever
wanted to do," producer Rick McCallum added. "He will
have completed his task as a man and a filmmaker."
The Times says that "Lucas has decided to devote the
rest of his life to what cineastes in the 1970s used
to call personal films. They雍l be small in scope,
esoteric in subject and screened mostly in art houses.
They雍l be like the experimental movies Lucas made in
the 1960s, around the time he was at U.S.C. film
school, when he recorded clouds moving over the desert
and made a movie based on an E. E. Cummings poem."
We are guessing he would still be involved with
projects like the "Clone Wars" cartoon, possible live
action "Star Wars" show and the 3D conversions of the
"Star Wars" movies.

Hardly a surprise or a shame.
