An interview with George Lucas in Rolling Stone, shortly after Star Wars came out, reveals some insights. He had a toy store and wanted toys to sell, so the merchandising was an integral part.

Ana's not new, unfortunately. I found her a lot several years ago when I was hardcore searching for weight loss tips during the Great Diet and Exercise Plan of 2002. I actually, sickeningly enough, got a few tips to keep me from snacking from an Ana list. Only they use the same tips to keep themselves from eating at all.
The Lucas interview made me realize I'm still a geek at heart, because I rankled that they kept spelling Wookiee wrong. He just can't be that guy anymore. I think he's a version of that guy, but the dude in that interview would never have made Episode II.
Oh, and that whole, "I wrote the whole outline before I even made Star Wars" is obviously not the truth. Either that, or he's lying his ass off in that interview. He's still all unsure what the sequel should be, or if he's even gonna make one.
I call BS on the whole thing.
Wookie didn't jar me near as much as "Flash Gorgon"! He could have just turned Ming The Merciless to stone!
And why is it that every time I read the main title of this blog, I read it to the tune of The Divinyls "I Touch Myself". Was that an intended musical link, or purely my own delusion...
Yes, the Divinyls link is unavoidable. The tagline on the blog used to say, "I quote myself, I want you to quote me." Hmm, this post is me quoting myself, whaddaya know.
