Now i know that all those plane and creatures and other items did come from one man. It just seems somebody else came up with them and just took them like Bill Gates with Microsoft {Not making fun of Xbox bless the system hard drive}. But it just all to weird.

Maybe someone worked with him, but was more like an assistant. Yeah, that seems pretty hard to have created all those ideas

-S

Lucas doesn't work alone, you know. He writes, and Industrial Lights and Magic design the creatures as well as they can to Lucas' writing, and then Lucas checks the maquettes and/or concept art, and gives the approval. It's a team effort.

Stars Wars is based upon the Akira Kurosawa film, "The Hidden Fortress."

Actually the story of an evil empire, and how 2 people have to save a princess, defeat it from the inside blah blah blah, all the main things that were in starwars were actually in a japanese movie, and George Lucas was friends with the director, can you say rip-off. I will post the name of the japanese movie when I remember it, or ask max who knows it's name.

Look at the 3 posts right above yours.

But I wonder why Kurosawa didn't sue Lucas like he did to Sergio Leone when he stole the plot to Yojimbo for A Fistful of Dollars.
