I've got to admit I haven't watched too many old samurai films, but role they played in Lucas' imagination is frequently cited and these connections you are making totally make sense. Anyway, nice job on the comparisons.

Thank you! Before doing this series I'd heard these movies were big inspirations, but I wasn't very familiar with them. Then I wondered what is Star Wars? What makes a Star Wars movie at it's core? So I started watching these movies, and made connections and I could see where he got some ideas. In watching these Samurai movies I really started liking the genre. There are so many good ones, even the ones not necessarily associated with Star Wars. They're really great stories, that get overlooked.
