Corellian Corvette and Hammerheads

Post by Darth Fanboy »

Not sure if this is PSW or not but here goes.

I was browsing this site, from a link in another thread on this board and I found this page.

It looks a lot like the Corellian Corvette to me, is there some sort of connection? Di Lucas recieve inspiration from this ship or vice versa?

The ships in that movie are ripoff of other movies.

Battle Beyond the Stars came out in '79 or '80,IIRC. If there's any influence, it would be SW influencing Corman.
