Rock me, Amadeus.

A few days ago, the World Affairs Council presented George Lucas with a "Global Vision Award" in San Francisco:

California congresswoman Nancy Pelosi presented Lucas his council award, likening him to renowned classical music composer Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart. The council crowned Lucas "the father of digital film" with profound insights into the globalization of culture. "Like Mozart, George Lucas is no ordinary genius," Pelosi said. "He is a magician. He will be remembered as a legend."

Yes, and the comparison is even more apt inasmuch as Mozart's "Episode I: The Papageno Menace" was virtually unwatchable, and I won't even mention the execrable "Episode III: Revenge of Die Zauberfloete."
