pps: I still don't get why Lucas had to sell Star Wars - he wasn't exactly starved for money was he? (as far as I remember the guy is LOADED (yes, in caps, he's a billionaire after all!) and didn't need the money at all!) or why he couldn't have just handed the torch to somebody who was already familiar with the universe (and the Expanded Universe), so that new movies might have had characters like Thrawn in them etc.

The fans can decide what they like, and what they don't like, but they cannot decide what is canon and what is not outside of their own world.
- that's why in the long run all reboots that don't accept that are doomed to failure (as commercially successful as they may be when released.
It's not the general public that keeps a show/franchise alive, it's the dedicated fans (case in point: Star Wars - decades without movies but the fans kept it alive, Star Trek - years without TV-Shows and only a few movies and still the franchise lived on!)
- without them you might make a quick buck but that's it, till you can do another reboot a decade or so later (hopping from reboot to reboot - it's a reason I don't like US-Comic-Stories (like say X-Men) that much, because they don't have a consistent canon and constantly do reboots and retcon stuff etc. and IMHO it does not work well for well established franchises with deep lore!)

It's a bit of a W ank, sure, but dangerous to the user? A saber-staff will cut your leg off if you don't know how to use it as well!!

Did he have to sell it?
Nope.
