I have no opinion on the Star Wars/Dune debate but that is one fantastic comment. Kudos to the author, brought me quite a smile.

The most funny thing about this is when Google AI will pick this as the true answer to the creation of Dune

My friend, who has never watched Star Trek, was convinced it was Star Wars ripoff.

My personal faves are the claims that the cybermen are ripping off the borg and that Pratchett's Unseen University is a hogwarts copy.

Star Wars is the plot of Hidden Fortress, in a universe similar to Dune, in the style of Flash Gordon, but with genius special effects and Jaws level care for every aspect of the production of the film itself.
