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.

The music tends to be left off lists like this but without that fabulous score and the genius of John Williams and the London Symphony Orchestra, Star Wars would not have had the same emotional impact.

The music of Holst's "The Planets", if we want to complete our list of things Star Wars superficially plagiarized.

Kings Row. Music by Korngold.
