George Lucas Strikes Back

Never mind that it's all but universally regarded as the series' best by both critics and fans... George Lucas has declared that The Empire Strikes Back is the worst of the Star Wars movies.

Also, never mind that it happens to be one of two Star Wars movies that he didn't direct. I'm sure that ego has nothing to do with George's opinion.

We'll just have to wait a few years for some kind of re-re-re-mastered version of the movie to set us all straight. I'm sure the flaws are nothing that he can't fix with a few good Jar Jar cameo insertions.

I believe his comment was meant as a joke directed at Sid Ganis to whom he was presenting a lifetime achievement award at the time: http://www.hollywoodreporter.com/hr/content_display/film/news/e3i1bca43ffb402e1d76d149e407777a784
