We can all "hate" as much as we want on Star Wars. But one thing we all have to remember is that they are, in fact, just movies. They are entertaining stories written by a man who has great vision and ideas, but also is just a man. He made mistakes and changes along the way while of writing these things.
I am a die hard true blooded Star Wars fan. I dislike a lot of what Lucas has done, but I don't hate any of it (well maybe Jar Jar). What I love about Star Wars heavily outweighs what I dislike. So I don't dwell on the negative.
This article struck a chord with me; as did "The People vs George Lucas." But it is a humorous chord, I'll keep enjoying Star Wars.
@DDay - regarding Obi-Wan never owning a droid: it can be argued that he never did own a droid. All of the droids he worked with were the property of the Jedi Order or the Republic military. He used them when necessary, but if you think back to the PT you'll realize that while he interacted often with droids he never had an owner relationship with one.
