I was lucky enough to be able to go to San Francisco on Sunday night for a screening of Star Wars: Clone Wars. On Monday, Warner Bros. took us out to George Lucas’ Big Rock Ranch for an interview with Lucas himself, along with director Dave Filoni and producer Catherine Winder. However, it pretty much turned into The George Lucas Show, and given his newfound love affair with television, that might actually become a reality. As long as it doesn’t become a reality show, I’d be okay with it. Some highlights from the interview include:

• Is there an entertainment industry inside the Star Wars universe?
• Why The Clone Wars, why now, and why make it animated?
• More about the live-action Star Wars television show they’re working on.
• Why George might only work in television from now on.
• Some skinny on the next Indiana Jones movie.
