He's probably not as big of a fan of American Graffiti ot THX 1138 as he is Star Wars. That's all. It's not any great attempt to be "underground" or "cult"... he just talk about the shit he likes.
And what's wrong with Kevin Williamson? Other than... um... nothing?

: Yeah So is there any reason why you have all these references to Star Wars?
:
: Its a great saga or francise so much deeper. The Narrative rolls on further that a galaxy far far away. Which is great.
: But Star Wars! It seems so mainstream. John Hughes yeah more of a cult bloke. Master of film but Lucas wheres the love?
: Where's the solidarity. I only see the evidence of true movie love in American Graffiti or THX 1138 both great not so mainstream. I mean in comparison to four inch plastic figures and a whole load of spin -offs.
: Don't answer why not though.
: thats boring.
: JOhn Carpenter would be a lot more subtle than Lucas yet you would probably sound like Kevin Williamson. So in that respect stick to the Lucas references.
