The King of all Science Fiction

Rating: 9/10 (15 April 2001)

George Lucas stole so much from everybody else to make this film, it is a shock that he gave Glen Larson a hard time with Battlestar Galactica. Star Wars is classic T.H. White when it comes to its story and cast of characters. The opening credits was taken from the movie the PLAINSMAN with Gary Cooper I believe. Luke returning home to find his uncle dead and house burned was taken right from THE SEARCHERS when John Wayne returns home to find his place burned to the ground. What else? Little things from Darth Vadar's helmet being the same of a Nazi's soldiers helmet to Obi Won being the perfect Merlin match. Still, don't get me wrong, this film is great. I just don't know why Lucas would get upset for the title Battlestar being named after the Death star ??? Go figure !
