And you don't think any FX techniques from 2001 were applied to Star Wars? Give me a break.
I loved Star Wars. It played in the theaters for over a year and a half, and I saw it dozens of times before you were even a gleam (or tear) in anybody's eye. But there was plenty of science fiction before Star Wars, and lots of it was really good.
And there is this:
Star Wars: 6 movies.
Star Trek: 5 TV series and 10 movies, with No. 11 in development.
