Everything that needs to be said of Star Wars is that it was released the same year as 2001 and it is as stupid as 2001 was brilliant. Star Wars stands in relation to both Science Fiction and Fantasy as Lawrence Welk stands in relation to Duke Ellington.

Well, regardless of one's opinion as to the relative merits of the two (and while I count myself a strong fan of Star Wars, I do think that 2001 is the better film) it nevertheless probably should be said that 2001 was released in 1968 and Star Wars was released in 1977.
