You know, of all the stereotypes that are actual in the movie, like the alien with the pseudo-italian new york accent, and the almond eyed aliens that have obviously stereotypical traits, you'd think they could have found an actual point to piss and moan about. Any comparison between Jango and Mexicans never crossed my mind during the movie, even when the other stuff did.

Nuff said about that. Now, go see it for Yoda and the final battle scene. It'll blow you away. I also had fun spotting rip-offs of Starship Troopers, Gladiator, Blade Runner, Jason & the Argonauts, Clash of the Titans, Close Encounters (the greys), etc. Collect them all.

And they say that Lucas grew up in a border town like 'American Graffiti' and that he is putting subliminal racist overtones in the movie...talk about stretching

Don't forget the rip-off of "The Fifth Element" (which itself had a lot of "borrowed ideas) when Obi-Wan and Anakin are chasing the bounty hunter through the planetary city of Coruscant, weaving through the floating traffic.

You missed one when O Be Wan fights that crab thing with the spear in the arena is a direct rip-off of "Mysterious Island"

That's all I've heard about from my 9 yr. old for two days. ; )

LOLOLOL--the same PC wackoes were upset by Episode I's introduction of Jar Jar Binks. Jar Jar was "racist" because of his quasi "Jamaican" accent. Stupidity knows no bounds when it comes to political correctness.....

If anything, the kid/son of the bounty hunter was a dead-ringer for Greg Louganis (at an early age), which would indicate Polynesian blood NOT Latino/Hispanic.

I haven't seen those movies so I don't know what you're talking about, but I'll take your word for it. But honestly, when there are that many "rip-offs" I'd think it's more the director putting in something from the back of his mind and not really thinking about where it came from than a direct rip-off. Just my 2¢.
