I mean I knew Lucas based Star Wars on a whole bunch of appropriated pop-spirituality nonsense but the worst part is he truly believes it.

No George, caring passionately about your loved ones is not a dangerous form of "greed that leads to the dark side." Please stop talking.

Everything George Lucas believes about history, religion, or philosophy appears to be lifted from the Hollywood movies he saw as a kid.

When Lucas says the Marshals of the old west were an historical inspiration for the Jedi, he’s really talking about Hollywood westerns.

Growing up I often heard adults describe Star Wars as "a Western in space." The archetypes/mythical structure similarities were obvious.
