    Okay - bow before my greatness

    “If this is a Star Wars film, where is the Director? — Commander, tear this ship apart until you’ve found those spoilers. And bring me the Producers, I want them alive!”

    “Lucasfilm, I find your lack of Director disturbing.”

    It would have been really funny if I had the balls to do a line from Tim Burton's Batman about Uncle Bingo and how it's time to pay the check, absolutely a propos of nothing, but I pussed out and decided not to post it.

    Lucas: Lucasfilm never told you who would be directing the ST.
    Kennedy: They told me enough! They told me you wouldn't be.
    Lucas: No Kate, I AM YOUR DIRECTOR.
    Kennedy: No that's not true! That's impossible!
    Lucas: Search your feelings. You know it to be true.
    Kennedy: NOOOOO! NOOOOOOOO!

    Kennedy: Is George Lucas the director?
    Bob Iger: Coke I need, yes coke and whores.
    Kennedy: Bob I must know!
    Bob Iger: The Director he is. Told you did he?
    Kennedy: Yes
    Bob Iger: Unexpected this is, and unfortunate.
    Kennedy: Unfortunate that I know the truth.
    Bob Iger: Unfortunate that you rush to produce it, that incomplete was your selling out.

    Captain Piett: Admiral!
    Admiral Ozzel: Yes, Captain?
    Piett: I think we've got something, sir. The report is only a fragment, from a blog post on the internet, but it's the best lead we've had.
    Ozzel: [growing impatient] We have thousands of fanboys searching the internet. I want proof, not leads!
    Piett: Kathleen Kennedy indicates it might be someone she's worked with.
    Ozzel: Ridiculous!! It could mean anything! If we followed up every lead...
    Piett: But sir, Fincher is supposed to be devoid of humour in his films.
    Darth Vader: [approaching the two officers after hearing their conversation] You've found something?
    Piett: Yes, my lord. [shows Vader the web video]
    Vader: That's it. The Director is David Fincher.
    Ozzel: [annoyed] My lord, there are so many Directors. It could be Favreau; it could be Vaughn; it could be...
    Vader: That is the Director! The Force tells me so. The Director is there...and I am sure Lawrence Kasdan is with them. Set your course for the Lucasfilm!![turns to General Maximilian Veers] General Veers, prepare your Fanboys!!

    I sense a plot to derail this thread, the dark side of the force surrounds the OP.

    Time to throw down (sorry so late to the party):

    "From my point of view, the producers are evil!"
    "Hmmm...a director you say?"
    "Now this is film making!"
    "My directions will not fail!"
    "I wish I could wish away my production staff, but I can't."
    "Come to your senses! What would Kasdan do were he in your shoes?"
    "That is the sound of a thousand terrible directors headed this way."
    "Always two there are. No more, no less. A Producer and a Director."

    That's the beauty of it -- George has always been a Hollywood outsider and now, once again, he will rule it all!

    Uncle George is negotiating with the head of Disney. Luke and the two
    robots, C-Kathleen Kennedy-PO and R2-Matthew Vaughn, start off for
    the garage when a plate pops off the Vaughn unit's head plate and it sparks wildly.

    LUKE: Uncle George...

    GEORGE: Yeah?

    LUKE: This directing unit has a bad motivator. Look!

    GEORGE: (to the head of Disney) Hey, what're you trying to push on us?

    The Disney CEO goes into a loud spiel. Meanwhile, another directing robot,
    Jon Favreau, has sneaked out of line and is moving up and down trying
    to attract attention. He lets out with a low whistle. Kennedy
    taps Luke on the shoulder.

    KENNEDY: (pointing to Favreau) Excuse me, sir, but that directing unit is in
    prime condition. A real bargain.

    LUKE: Uncle George...

    GEORGE: Yeah?

    LUKE: What about that one?

    GEORGE: (to CEO) What about that blue one? We'll take that one.

    With a little reluctance the scruffy dwarf trades the
    damaged astro-director for Favreau.

    LUKE: Yeah, take it away.

    KENNEDY: Uh, I'm quite sure you'll be very pleased with that one,
    sir. He really is in first-class condition. I've worked with him
    before. Here he comes.

    George pays off the whining CEO as Luke and the two robots
    trudge off toward a grimy studio entry.

    LUKE: Okay, let's go.

    KENNEDY: (to Favreau) Now, don't you forget this! Why I should stick my
    neck out for you is quite beyond my capacity!

    You're not all-powerful. Well, I should be. Someday I will be. I will be the most powerful director ever! I promise you. I will even learn to stop people on the internet from complaining!
