WI George Lucas dies at 18?

No, please bring your massive genius down from on high once more, as the idea that Star Wars is a masterpiece of film is simply too much for my small mind. I'm glad we have you here to explain everything to us peons who don't recognize that piece of crap as the great life-changing film it truly is.
You do realize that you started the confrontation with your sarcastic little remark earlier, and you are continuing it now?

No, you see, I was disagreeing with you. Not agreeing. Star Wars is a "movie kids can watch", not a "kids' movie". I was saying you are wrong. Is that clear to you now? Or should I go over it again in smaller words?


Remain Polite to each other at all junctures, kids.
 
A world without Star Wars, huh? This is a greatly improved world.

Pllllllleeeeeeaaaaaaaasssssssseeeee tell me you're joking, right? :(

*Angry Cartman* It was not a kids movie.

It was an old school adventure story. It wasn't mature and gritty like other films at the time, but it wasn't a children's tale; it was a universal tale like the adventures and fables of old.

True dat, bro. True dat. ;)

@rjrrzube: LOL, good one. :D
 
Harrison Ford would be a nobody today. He was washed up actor who had only played minor roles before, and was working as a carpenter. He was building some cabinets for Lucas when he was cast in American Graffiti.

Anyways, the lack of ILM, LucasArts, and Skywalker Sound would have a profound impact on modern entertainment. No ILM means no Pixar, which is tragic. Pop culture is of course vastly altered.
 
One positive thing, "Moonraker" would have been closer to the original book.
Either that or they wouldn't have made it at all. The end of The Spy Who Loved Me has the message "James Bond will return in For Your Eyes Only", so that'd be the one they'd make in 1979.

Actually, now I think about it, the writer would know from the start that Roger Moore would play Bond in For Your Eyes Only, so they'd probably write it in the more humourous campy style as the previous Moore ones.
