Spiderman 3 Skeptic George Lucas is a Silly, Silly Man

FOXNews.com - George Lucas Calls ‘Spider-Man 3′ Silly; Cate Blanchett Looks Great - Celebrity Gossip | Entertainment News | Arts And Entertainment

Lucas told me he has seen all the summer movies since his company, Industrial Light and Magic, does most of the special effects. The only one they didn’t work on was “Spider-Man 3.” What did he think of it?

“It’s silly. It’s a silly movie,” he said. “There just isn’t much there. Once you take it all apart, there’s not much story, is there?”

Well, it’s not “Star Wars.”

“People thought ‘Star Wars’ was silly, too,” he added, with a wink. “But it wasn’t.”

Ahem. Star Wars is a great movie. But it is silly.
