    That “probably” in your first sentence is doing a lot of heavy lifting :D

    I wonder why George Lucas never sued them. In some parts it’s such an obvious clone, near to a remake.

      I mean, I doubt this movie made a lot of profit, so I don’t think suing them would be very beneficial?

        You’re right. Could have given them credibility and publicity Lucas didn’t want to hand out.
