Regarding that, if Star Wars had been transported to the buccaneer days, it still would have made a great story. It would have also made a great western, with the Emperor a cattle baron and Darth the gunslinger, Luke the hero, etc. But it was also a Terrific SF story. A timeless classic is a story that can be re-told for each generation in it's own language. LL hit on this, too, and uses it masterfully. Happy Trails |
