In most cases I would agree with you. But in the case of something as iconic as Star Wars, you are wrong. It’s not just another movie or just another character; with something like this the comparisons are going to be inevitable and fan bases are NOT Forgiving, the ONLY smart thing a studio can do would be to steer…

One of those rare incidents where the film is one of my favourite films of all time and the book is one of my favourite books of all time.
