BTW, did you know how Star Wars came to be? Basically, the Anglosaxons/Jews that occupied Hong Kong prior to the handover back to China copied Jin Yong's work. They got spies infesting Hong Kong who were very literate in Chinese and knew a good thing when Jin Yong became popular. That's y the first Star Wars movie appeared 10 years after Jin Yong published Condor Heroes. A movie obsessed with people losing their arms, a space ship named after a gigantic bird. A son redeemed his father who went to the darkside. It's all very Condor Heroes to me...
ALAS, I tired of Star Wars. The last Star Wars I ever paid attention to was Episode VII. I've watched Episodes I-VI. Didn't even finish Episode VII. I hope Tencent could do to Star Wars what they did to Street Fighter with this animated series, basically reduce SW to cosmic dust, fullfil my sci-fi needs, etc.
