The story goes that George Lucas was supposed to direct Apocalypse Now, but the studio didn't like that he was gonna make it a 35mm black and white documentary instead of a blockbuster movie, so he said he'd make his own Vietnam war movie...with spaceships, and lasers!

I don't think that's a George Lucas work.
