Re: Star Wars Anthology (Young Han Solo)
True, but I imagine it's not easy to walk away from the very thing that defined your life for so long. It doesn't seem unusual that Lucas would have a few moments of frustration and vent while he comes to terms with the fact that he handed it all over to someone else. And that's the key part, as Solo4114 mentioned... he voluntarily handed it off.
You would think so, wouldn't you? And yet, during his relationship "breakup" with Disney he called them "White Slavers" and criticized them for doing a "retro", i.e. unoriginal, movie to "appeal to the fans". His comments also give the impression that his short-lived advisory role wasn't treated all that seriously by Disney/Lucasfilm/JJ either. For someone so used to having their word taken as gospel, that had to sting. His reaction to the prequel backlash also points to some degree of bitterness.
