"...two film makers..."

"...last twenty years..."

No.

Not to mention that, although "Star Wars" has its glories, it is 
essentially too dumb for our boy Joe.

On the other hand, "Star Wars" is the only thing more or less 
science-fiction that made the specified buckaroonies. If "SF" includes 
comic-book adaptations and  straight fantasy, then there are more 
possibilities. But the money is too much to allow the Wachowski brothers 
(unless JMS was just guesstimating), whom I would otherwise bet on.
