A lot of people are resistant to the idea that Star Wars isn't really science fiction. I guess the idea comes across as pretentious to them. It's just a more nuanced definition.

The problem with Star Wars is that its a cultural phenomena, but that makes categorizing it far more important. It isn't a poster child for science fiction. Nor should it be. That makes the term science fiction meaningless if it were considered that.
