Between the years 1977 and 1999, Star Wars fans had very little to complain about. The biggest problem in their world was Ewoks. George Lucas, Irvin Kershner, and Richard Marquand had brought them three incredible films filled with some of the greatest heroes and villains that will ever be portrayed in film. Fans had nothing but love and admiration for the man that had given them a whole new world.
Then came The Phantom Menace to ruin absolutely everything.
The dichotomy of the relationship went from praise to murderous rage. It was more than anger, however - fans were hurt that a man who had given them so much would create the horseshit that was Jar Jar Binks and midichlorians. But how does a fan base simply turn against its creator? A religion can't suddenly turn against its God. So what is the right way for Star Wars fans to feel about George Lucas, a man who gave so much only to take it all away? This is what The People vs. George Lucas analyzes.
Set to have its world premiere at the SXSW Film Festival, the film has released a new trailer. Some of you may remember the last trailer from back in February, which was both longer and more informative, but this one is worth a watch as well. Check out both trailers below and see where you land.

And for the record, the argument isn't who shot first. Greedo never fired at all. Duh.
