The Lucas museum will attempt to explore the intersection between high culture and pop culture. Few, if any, other museums do that. I’m hoping to be able to see it someday.

There was a some inaccurate information in this video. The San Francisco location was first, then Chicago (home of Lucas’ wife) was where he tried to build it. Los Angeles offered space at Exposition Park and Lucas reached an agreement with mayor Garcetti, and the city Council. Also, Lucas was the one who spent the money on the museum, using over 1 billion of his vast fortune.
The construction and related jobs he will create are a good use of his fortune. Everyone who gets mad when Bs spend money always misses the net job creation
At last Saturday’s USC versus Wisconsin game, walked around the perimeter of the museum. Impressive! Outside looks substantially finished so most of the work remains within the facility. Looking forward to touring the museum.
I get how everyone digs the structure and the landscape architecture. ... What a gift to LA this is! Thank you, Mr. Lucas. ... But really, it's the collection, and the trajectory it's taken thus far in acquisitions that's most impressive. Bravo.

Chicago taking a huge L not having that museum WOW. I live in Canada and I am already planning my visit. Actually pretty happy I don't have to go to Chicago now. Chi-City is happy to be known for gun violence, they not trying to make money from tourists.
Lol. Chicago won. We still have an open lakefront. We have plenty of open land along the Chicago river, which is being developed that he could have used along our TIF monies, which ANY mayor would have gladly handed him gobs of money from. Which would've irritated the cities residents to NO end. But. No. He wanted to built on the lakefront.
@@earthman808I’m from Chicago this was definitely a L. Chicago has many museums and one more especially a futuristic looking one wouldn’t have hurt. I guess tourists can still enjoy seeing bums sleeping and smoking on the CTA 🤦🏻♂️
@@alexzais1935 Please notice, I didn't disregard the museum. Nor its idea. Just. It has no place being on the lakefront. Our mayors LOVE handing out money to the pet projects of rich people, and pick a spot along the river corridor going into the city would've been PERFECT for it.
When Robert Colescott's "George Washington Carver Crossing the Delaware" (1975) was mentioned, Emanuel Leutze's "Washington Crossing the Delaware" (1851) was shown. Colescott's version, which is a takeoff on Leutze's, was not shown.
That is the beauty of LA. We are a city that is adapting per century. We preserve and innovate concurrently in LA. Plus, we are far larger by area than eithe the initial two choices.
They wanted to sell public land to him. Chicago doesn't sell prime public land for a private endeavor. It was crazy he even thought it was reasonable. Obama presidential library didn't get to buy the land either. It's also the reason that the bears don't get a new stadium at public expense in our lakefront park.
The Protect Our Parks hippies managed to stop the Lucas museum in Chicago by dragging the project through the courts until Lucas ran out of patience and decided to move the museum, which would have been a real plus for Chicago, to another city. They tried to stop the Obama center the same way, but lost in the courts. The battle over whether the billionaire owner of the Bears can blackmail the city into using millions in public funds to build a new stadium complex isn’t over, yet.
Sucks to be Chicago, that is crazy. Imagine how good for the city it would be having those venues you just named. I'm already planning my visit to the new museum when it opens from Canada. Very glad I dont have to go to Chicago tbh.
@AlwayzFresh well, I guess we are all happier this way. Our city suits us, and you get to go to a different city to see this particular museum. I would call this a win-win. No losers here.
It could have been clad in metal or cedar shingles, or possibly some other natural material..using a synthetic composite is a real shame, IMO, and yeah, I realize it gives the building a "cool" vibe. It reminds me of the Monsanto house of tomorrow at Disney World.
Chicago was stupid. If it had only been a museum of things Lucas had created I could see their point, but with all the other artistic media, meeting spaces, theaters, etc. it will be great for Los Angeles itself and for tourism.
@pibbitybibbity no, Chicago was true to itself. Rahm Emanuel, who is not a native Chicagoan, pushed the deal. Lucas was offered plenty of other good sites that weren't our front yard. Lucas wasn't interested. He went elsewhere, and both chicago and Lucas are fine with that. I will probably make a trip to see the museum once it's properly settled in.
There is more to this story though. Lucas actually played Chicago as a pawn and always wanted this in LA; he used Chicago as a way to get what he wanted from LA. Chicago offered him multiple site ideas for where to put this but Lucas rejected all of them and kept insisting on building a truly hideous building on a piece of protected and restricted lakefront property and Lucas wouldn’t budge. Lucas also rejected the idea of having the museum be a new wing of the Science & Industry Museum that would have been a perfect fit and would have brought new development to a neighborhood that needs it. The fact that Lucas refused to work with alternatives at all seems like he always intended to do this in LA but was teasing a Chicago museum just to get concessions out of LA…and it worked.
1. San Francisco is NOT Lucas' home town. (Also - NEVER say San Fran or Frisco. It's horrible.) 2. All modern buildings in earthquake zones are built to move a little. They have to. It's not innovative. This goes back decades. 3. Lucas' personal collection looks bland AF (which is not surprising at all).
Makes me wonder about the accuracy of the entire video when you say that his home town is San Fran. It's not its Modesto. Even though he refuses to go back there. He just had SF almost GIVE him the campus at the Presidio in SF so that they could fill some buildings and get it refurbed after the military left.
So, Indiana Jones is crap? Lucas wrote and produced those. Add American Graffiti. Also, the Lucas company, ILM, did the CGI for Jurassic Park and several other movies.
Las Vegas wanted to build a full-size Enterprise-A sitting on the ground. They put up the money. One Paramount executive shot it all down because he thought it would make Star Trek look bad if the ship wasn't popular. So dumb. The Fremont Street Experience was built instead.
Why wouldn’t they just make more square footage? Instead we are left with expensive square footage and expensive maintenance. It seems people don’t care that much about exhibits. A pole shed with decorative facades and excellent insulation would have provided a better museum experience for people and better and more storage for artifacts.

Calfornia is a dying state. Although Los Angeles seems to be a good location I think it was a mistake to put it here. People are leaving California by the droves and future taxes and maintenance costs will be exorbitant. Colorado, Utah, or Texas would have been better. Right now, California is one of the last places I want to visit. They‘ll need to keep all their souvenirs locked up so they don‘t get shoplifted. The area underneath the museum will be a great place for homeless people to live.
Looks like the Marin Civic Center which is the county where he lives and works. Frank Lloyd Wright. Plagiarize, plagiarize, make no man's work evade your eyes.
it's a generational thing, people in my generation we dont care about star war or george lucas at all, a generation before yes, but the current one NO. This will fizzle away in 25 year, silly.
Point of fact, LA didn't spend $1BN On A Museum, George Lucas fully funded this venture on his own without any city money.
Thank you. Of course this account wont pull it or revise anything because....nevermind.
Yes. Instant non-watch
So, Lucas had to bribe LA to build it. Got it.
Imagine what Elon would spend.
He also set up a 400-million-dollar endowment for its maintenance.
This belongs in a museum!!
The Lucas museum will attempt to explore the intersection between high culture and pop culture. Few, if any, other museums do that. I’m hoping to be able to see it someday.
Always felt his Star Wars films met in that intersection, even the prequels.
And wouls also house things like star wars,Indiana jones and things made by lusacfilm and half made by dysney over time, worth visiting
Los Angeles is spending exactly $0 on this project. Funding is coming entirely from George Lucas
Not now but I have been to Exposition and with all the local attractions, they may not have enough parking. People who wants to visit the museum would not be able to if there is a USC or LAFC game. They may have to build parking structures to accommodate increase visits.

It’s really important to have a place to display Jar Jar Binks concept art.

As someone from SoCal originally, honestly it’s preferable to just visit the old things that kept me…
Pretty good baseball team as well⚾️
They have George Washington CARVER Crossing the Delaware. Not the painting of George Washington Crossing the Delaware by Emanuel Leutze.
We miss Sandy here in Seattle, but can't wait to see what her vision brings to the Lucas museum.
its better for it to be in LA tbh, its entertainment capital of the world.
Surprised with How much LA is rapidly developing recently!
Don't be. We're hosting the Olympics in 2028.
Thank you, George! What a beautiful building. I certainly plan on visiting.
I remember wanting to work in this museum if it was built in Chicago. Not a Star Wars fan but that museum looked so cool 😅
