Spotted this at toymania. It's a very good read. Lots of insight on what actually went on developing the original trilogy and how he felt the toys became the focus over the story.

Did 'Star Wars' become a toy story? Producer Gary Kurtz looks back | Hero Complex | Los Angeles Times

You are a bold and courageous person, afraid of nothing. High on a hill top near your home, there stands a dilapidated old mansion. Some say the place is haunted, but you don't believe in such myths. One dark and stormy night, a light appears in the topmost window in the tower of the old house. You decide to investigate... and you never return...

great article now I know when Lucas became a putz ! it was after Empire in 1980. so by the time he was making the pre-quels in 1999 he was a lost cause and still is to this day.this LA Times article may sting Lucasfilm a bit? actually it may wake up George? then again he may go back in to a coma
