Yeah, Lucas has heard "You suck!" for years; he's been blamed for ruining movies (studios supposedly stopped caring about quality movies and became all about FX and money when SW came out), for ruining sci-fi (since sci-fi was supposedly so much better before SW came along), and of course, he's "ruined" SW with Ewoks, Jar Jar, etc., and made SW "dumb and kiddie" when it had previously been deep, adult-oriented, and serious.
Of course, at the same time, we're supposed to think Lucas is surrounded by people who kiss his ass, that he systematically weeded out all the pesky "naysayers" who "had the guts to stand up to him."
Seems to me that if fanboyz hate Lucas so much and thinks he sucks so bad, it'd be very easy for them to stop spending their time and money on what he puts out.
