Star Wars fans have a complicated relationship with George Lucas. On one hand, he is the man who largely created this once-in-a-lifetime, magical film experience that can never be replicated. On the other hand, he botched that magical film experience when he messed with the original trilogy, adding so many unnecessary special effects and of course, the edited “Han shot first” scene that will send any Star Wars fan into a fit of rage. So when viewers watch a fan-made George Lucas version of the Star Wars: The Force Awakens trailer created by Michael Shanks, they may think its ridiculous but deep down, they also may be saying to themselves: “that’s a pretty accurate take on George.”
