\nIf you make George Lucas mad, he may not block you on Twitter, but he will tell you to get a job, as a few hapless autograph seekers recently discovered.
TMZ shot footage of the \u201cStar Wars\u201d creator snapping back at autograph seekers in Beverly Hills on Monday night.
Lucas is seen writing his signature to fans\u2019 posters as a large bodyguard stands watch. At first, the scene looks relatively peaceful. Someone behind the camera asks for Lucas\u2019 opinion on various issues \u2014 director Ron Howard taking over the Han Solo movie, and an impending L.A. City Council vote on a $1.5 billion museum in Lucas\u2019 name \u2014 to which he gives short but polite answers.
Lucas puts up his hand and quickly dismisses one bold autograph seeker. But when another crosses the line, Lucas decides he has had enough. \u201cNo, I\u2019 m not going to keep doing that, \u201d he says defiantly. \u201cThis is a $200 signature, so why don\u2019 t you just go out and get a job?\u201d
The filmmaker believed some of the pushy autograph hopefuls were attempting to cash in from his signature by selling them on the internet. \u201cThese people are here to make money, \u201d he explained in the video. \u201cThey\u2019 re not fans. They just want to make money.\u201d
According to Huffington Post, Lucas\u2019 estimate of $200 a signature is \u201cnearly spot-on, \u201d as some signed items sell for exactly that on eBay.
With all the shade Lucas threw at them, those autograph seekers may want to consider joining the Jedi Order to get some exposure to the light side of The Force.
