The fine Lucas got was from omitting the director's credit from the start of the movie. It's not like anybody was defending the guys doing the work behind the scenes.
Relevant wikipedia entry
This might be a needless nitpick, but had to bring it up, as it's not the first time I've come across this.
Yeah, that's the one. The director's guild (not union, although I guess similar) imposed the fine, even though it was his own name he omitted.
Even James Earl Jones didn't get a credit although that was at his own request apparently. He'd rattled through the lines in like 2 hours, pocketed his money and went home. Didn't feel he'd deserved it, vs the poor guy who'd sweated in a suit for weeks and didn't even get to be seen or heard.
