George Lucas has revealed to Fox News that he’s developing two live-action Star Wars films that will debut on television and will probably be an hour-long.

“But they won’t have members of the Skywalker family as characters,” he said. “They will be other people of that milieu.”

Milieu? Ooh, look at fancy pants Lucas and his big words. However, Lucas couldn’t think of a fancy word when describing his disdain for Spiderman 3:

“It’s silly. It’s a silly movie,” he said. “There just isn’t much there. Once you take it all apart, there’s not much story, is there?”“People thought ‘Star Wars’ was silly, too,” he added, with a wink. “But it wasn’t.”

With a wink? Stop winking at people George and take a look at the last three Star Wars films. Then try not to use the word silly amongst the milieu of silliness that’s to be found in those steaming piles of disappointment.
