I was a great admirer of George Lucas' work.

Fear is the path to the dark side. Fear leads to anger. Anger leads to hate. Hate leads to suffering.

I'm a great admirer of cartoons, because I can't do cartoons.

'The Clone Wars' was rooted in George Lucas and his characters.

My agent set up a meeting with George Lucas. They were casting in England.

We had to talk really, really nice to George Lucas to let us have it. It's set in southern California in 1962. It's not right on Route 66, but it captures a period of time that many people associate with Route 66. It's the music, the cars, the fashion that make it great. Some people consider it the greatest car movie ever made. I call it the greatest music movie every made.
