Filmmaker George Lucas, joined by some of the stars of his latest intergalactic film, spoke on Sunday in Cannes.
In a press conference, the director answered critics who made comments regarding the last two Star Wars films, The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones.
Lucas said, "The older ones are loyal to the first three films I made, and they are the ones in control of the media."
"The films that these people don’t like – which are the first two prequels – are fanatically adored by the under 25s."
Revenge of the Sith will be released world wide on May 19.
