At the very end of the show, Peter Jackson pulls an ace out -- he basically says (and I paraphrase), "You can talk all you want about how Star Wars has bits of The Bible etc., but none of those stories has C-3P0, R2-D2, Jabba the Hutt, and that stuff. What Star Wars is to me is the sheer brilliance of imagination."
You tell 'em, Pete. Hey, man, you're lookin' trimmer. Kong was a workout, huh?
