George Lucas Does Something Likeable For a Change: Revenge on Rich Neighbors

[Martinus]

[My old house in Whitehorse had several subsidized housing apartments 5-6 houses down.  I never had a problem with that.]

The only difference between Lucas' construction project and low income housing development is that with the construction project, the noise eventually stops.

BANG BANG BANG at construction project =/ BANG BANG BANG OH MAH BABY DONE BEEN SHOT OH LOADY LOADY LOADY WHY JESUS at low income housing development

[Martinus]

If he wanted to piss off people couldn't he just make another movie?

Seeing how George Lucas seems to be willing to throw away huge amounts of cash just to be a dick, the two last parts of the second trilogy could have been a revenge for people not liking the Jar Jar movie.

[Josquius]

I approve.
Extra amusing because the opponents will find it hard to oppose this without really showing themselves to be not particularly nice.

He said he was tired of that too 

[Ed Anger]

After Red Tails, I'd be tired to. Tired of sucking.

neighborhood associations.

They need to be stigmatized like child molesters. They're the modern domain of nazis.

Low income in Marin County - what is that, less than $120,000 a year?

Right?

It's a dick move, and out of proportion to his plans (understandably) getting frustrated by his neighbours. 

Agree.  Peron purposely built low-income housing right next to the nicest neighborhoods in Buenos Aires, with the result that there are now a lot fewer nice neighborhoods, and the ones that remain are like walled fortresses.

The nerve of those poor people!

[Valmy]

The nerve of those poor people!

...what poor people?

In May 2009, the county had the fifth highest income per capita in the United States at $91,483.

walled fortresses.

Celtic, roman or medieval?

[Berkut]

It is most certainly a douchebag move, and I don't see how it makes Lucas more likable.

he's kind of like a half robinhood. He takes from the masses but still screws over the rich. Well, other rich people. he's still rich and you can bet he lives no where near affordable housing.
