God this whole narrative drives me crazy "actually his wife saved the movie" "star wars was saved in editing" "lucas has great imagination but poor actual skills" shut the frick UP he's said that the real filmmaking only starts after filming of course editing is gonna have a big impact. He was a revolutionary genius even before star wars not some random hack and even his prequel movies show this if you're not a dumb r-slur

He had some real genius but if you see what his wife did it was real. IIRC it was just rearranging the order of the scenes but it changed the movie into something that worked, not some neurodivergent nonsense that would have just been incomprehensible.
He literally told the fricking editors to cut out all of the fricking important plot points. I'm sure the fricking prequels would have been better with them in.
IIRC she switched around a couple scenes in the Death Star battle that were really important. But I can't remember so I don't know why I'm even bringing this up.

Oh for frick's sake, can we not make this a political thing? This is one of the few times when a foid ever did anything productive and I think we can give her that.

What I heard is that she massively edited it and move around a lot of scenes, which hugely changed the plot. In a good way.

We are just too stupid to understand his genius that's why it would have been incomprehensible

He literally said that he wanted a fricking "prequel trilogy" where the fricking prequels were fricking 10 years, and with an unknown plotline -

He didn't even have a fricking prequel trilogy. It's just the fricking first one and a fricking half were fricking released in 2014 and 2016.
I can't imagine how incredible the fricking rest of the fricking trilogy will be fricking without the fricking Disney guys working on it.

Yikes that's just factually wrong, the prequels were released from 1999 to 2005

His wife was one of three editors on the film, and ultimately the editor works for the director anyway.
If I remember right, the big changes she made were suggested Ben Kenobi died and cutting the opening with Luke (which George didnt even want to film).
I can point you to a two hour video essay that proves my point if you'd like.
