    Ads in the escapist - irrelevant?

    No Right Answer: George Lucas vs George Lucas

    If Vincent Van Gogh Came back from the dead and started adding to his paintings, would we be saying that its his right to do so? Of course not... BUT, we would allow him to make another, slightly different one, and that is what George Lucas is doing with Star Wars. Yes there are people who...
