I've a wrench to throw into the works. How do you figure in a film like "The Magnificent Seven" which was a blatant ripoff of Kurosawa's "The Seven Samurai"? Of course, it's no secret that in Star Trek (TNG and subsequent) the Klingon species is not-too-loosely based on the samurai of feudal Japan. Just some thoughts. ---- Screen-L is sponsored by the Telecommunication & Film Dept., the University of Alabama.
