It has to be sci-fi. Surely fantasy has to have a wizard? Also none of the fantasy books I've read have space ships in them.

Sci-Fi.Fantasy is stuff like Tolkien's Hobbit and Rings Trilogy and Terry Brooks Shannara books.

A lot of influence for Lucas' SW universe and look and feel came from 1950's Republic Serials,Errol Flynn movies and old Westerns.I think of SW almost as a sci-fi western with these mystic elements thrown in.

... Gene Wolfe's "Book of the New Sun"? China Mieville's "Perdido Street Station"? Clive Barker's "Weaveworld"?

And the only good answer for the poll is OMG ITS TEH MOVIES WITH MILE LONG SPACESHIPS IN IT
