re: How much of a joke is it that Star Wars was ever thought to be equal to Lord of the Rings?

I mean you can literally say the same thing for Star Wars. 1977 changed filmmaking forever because of Star Wars, and that’s straight from the mouth of guys like Spielberg and James Cameron in the Empire of Dreams documentary
LOTR still looks so damn good. I can’t think of another movie made 20 years ago that still looks like it was made today.

Lord of the Rings probably would have eventually been shot if there was no Star Wars, but Star Wars was definitely a big influence on how good the films became, because without Star Wars we may have gotten the disaster of a single two hour Lord of the Rings that Harvey Weinstein wanted.
But while Star Wars is definitely one of the five most influential movies ever, I’d say Lord of the Rings is almost certainly the most important and influential film of the 21st century.
