I will always remember watching the Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies as a little kid and today, his works are a part of my childhood. Even today I still watch the Star Wars Clone Wars series on cartoon network and still enjoy watching the Star Wars and Indiana Jones movies. I do not think that I will ever lose interest in George Lucas's films.
