Star Wars creator George Lucas secured his place as a movie legend in 1977, and he has insights into the current state of movies and where they're headed.
Now in his 80s, Lucas has had plenty of time to examine films both up close and far, so he had plenty to say when asked what cinema will be like in 10 years.

- " The Barman" movie i( Batman) is about a guy who works in a club, preparing cocktails with various drinks; and although he is a good guy, he is a good bird. But it arouses the admiration and envy of the jocker, is the croupier of the entertainment venue. So, ...
- the film " The barbarian ", is about a neighbor who lives in an urbanization; and who works in a local establishment. The guy is very brutish, and does things haphazardly; although without bad intention; That's why they know him as "the barbarian", ...
