Was Lucas High?
Don't get me wrong, the original Star Wars movies were great; but then again, so was Alice in Wonderland. Some of the Star Wars aliens seem like one couldn't just up with them from the human mind almost; does anyone know if he used any mind-altering drugs or anything like that?

Um, George Lucas had a little thing called an Art Department that did most/all of the funky creature design work...

I don't think he was high at the time. He just has a brilliant mind that far exceeds the understanding, creativity, and forsight of most mortals. Tolkien too.

*ahem*
Has anyone here ever delved into the fields of Xeno/exobiology? There are some pretty interesting theoretical games that can be played with non-humanoid extra-terrestrial creatures. You'd be amazed by what people have come up with- some of it makes george lucas's aliens look pathetic.

Well, nobody has a strict definition of what a living being capable of sentience is. So all's fair.

Aliens in many SF books are amazing. Have you read Orson Scott Card? Really great...
