Old movie, but it should be a fan fave. Since we are discussing TFA and how heavily it lifted from ANH (and IMO ESB) what do you feel when you see one of the movies that allegedly influenced ANH?
I've seen it. Got it on DVD.
SW is a ripoff of The Hidden Fortress in the same way as The Road Warrior is a ripoff of Shane.
There's a heck more original material in that movie than the few plot elements borrowed from the earlier film.
and The Seven Samurai is the greatest film of all time.
Yep. It even has Joey=Feral Kid. And Max punches Pappagallo to drive the rig like Shane punches Starrett to face off with Wilson.Oh my god, the Road Warrior is Shane! I always got that it was a western, but I never even caught any of the Shane nods. If possible, that makes me love it even a little bit more.
