This is clear proof of his UNORIGINALITY and LACK of world building.<br /><br />He has clearly derived his work from George Lucas's masterpiece, just as he shamelessly copied the plots for ALL his other works. <br /><br />The bard doesn't have a creative bone in his body. Clearly, converting others works to iambic pentameter is the limit of his skills. evilleMonkeighhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11998198938697175335noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8394074963215462822.post-37937569907644411102016-02-25T11:29:41.211-08:002016-02-25T11:29:41.211-08:00I see you're finally convinced that the relati...I see you're finally convinced that the relative paucity of world-building in his work in no way diminishes the bard's greatness.
