Wallstarb,

Universal and other studios had the "inside" position on "Star Wars." They all passed. No doubt, Lucas' "stock" was down after they passed. 20th century Fox took the chance on "Star Wars" and the rest is history. (And Lucas didn't even have a pipeline--LOL) It was the executives from the other studios that got fired.

I'm sure the analogy has flaws, but you all get the point.
