Edwin nailed it for me. George Lucas is intent on making the movies that millions of people bought tickets to see, and ones which gave him a very comfortable life, disappear without explanation, while offering up in their place what many find to be inferior (or anyway, DIFFERENT) substitutes. That's the source of the needless antagonism. This is not 'ars gratia artis', he is a successful brand regarding a large part of his customers with antipathy. He is New Coke sticking to the new formula and trying to make it like it was never anything else.
