Over the years, fans of the Star Wars franchise have been divided when it comes to the prequel trilogy which ran from 1999 to 2005.

However, the same thing can't be said about his ex-wife Marcia Lucas who apparently didn't like its opening salvo, Episode I — The Phantom Menace.

Well, it is what it is.
