Turn 97 (June 1982)
You and Mike were looking at the script that was just finished by Dave. The
Star Wars: Legends: Battle of The Koral Moons Script had finally come off the press, and Dave had apparently worked behind the back of everyone, especially George, who was… while impressed with the idea… was still entirely consumed with finishing his trilogy. Steve for his part, wanted no part in it, as he wanted to sleep for a very long time.
That led you to, however, look to Mike. "Does George know what you want?"
"No." He said. "And if our luck holds out, he won't know until after it's done."
"Why are we playing this sort of Game Mike?"
"Because we need Star Wars on the lips of every person from here to Krakow to Johannesburg to Melbourne." He said. "We need to get people excited for the last final chapter of the Star Wars trilogy. But something like Star Wars can never end. It has to propagate itself. Keep people invested into the lore… and of course, while it can make a profit."
You frowned at that and almost felt sick. Star Wars was not your passion, and you knew what he wanted. He wanted you to do something behind George's back for the sake of money, which while necessary for the continued success of Lucasfilms…
But it was never about Money. George just wanted to make the best films he could in a world he was so passionate about that it was impossible to understand just how much he cared about it.
What do you do?
[]Make it: Sorry George. But Mike was right. people wanted more Star Wars, and maybe you can give them some of that.
[]Don't make it: You will put your foot down. Hopefully, he understands. But this is a step too far for you.
