Lucas was an excellent manager. His triumph with Star War Episode IV was collecting the best in the special effects business under one roof and raising the bar three notches at once, and taking credit for all their work. “Skywalker Sound” is really the logical evolution of his talent : organizing a business and pushing sound and optical technology forward. Star Wars and Empire were his working platforms. You can’t begrudge a man as “selling out” when he was never “in” to begin with. It was always about the money.
