- matt-attack 6y agoI read it as: Lucas claimed he had fully fleshed out a 3 movie series. In reality he only had Raiders of the Lost Ark plus a few loose ideas for 2 sequels.
- antiquark 6y ago> Lucas claimed he had fully fleshed out a 3 movie series But if that was his belief, then he wasn't lying.
- karatinversion 6y agoI don’t see how you could honestly and falsely believe that.
- antiquark 6y agoSo I'm a liar if I don't think Lucas lied?
- karatinversion 6y agoSorry, I meant “that”, referring to the belief that one has three fully fleshed out movies. The “you” was a general construction, replaceable with “one”. I.e. I don’t see how anyone could honestly believe that they have three fully fleshed out movies ready, if they in fact do not.
