Define occult. When I hear that word I think of western witchcraft nonsense. Star Wars is more eastern religious influence, kinda like Pokemon.

Eh, I mean I know he's got a shit ton of references to politics, history, religion, mythology, etc. etc. in his movies. But wouldn't that word be "esoteric" and not so much "occult?"

Fun fact, a lot of people hate Jar-Jar Binks, but the whole Naboo blockade and invasion was George's version of the British doing that do Jamaica, and Jar-Jar was just a Rastafarian. I mean, episode 1 was still bad, but there was still a lot of effort put into much of it. Just, no effort in the screen play.

If Lucas was so esoteric, maybe he'd have made better films.
