  So could any given episode of “My Little Pony” - in fact, the number of things that could say “Star Wars” on it is literally endless!

    I secretly wrote “star wars” in sharpie on the undercarriage of my 2002 hyundai elantra and would you believe it to my eye it looks no different whatsoever

      I guess what I should have said is: the art style, the design, everything about this looks like the Disney version of Star Wars. It doesn’t resemble Star Trek in the classical sense.

  To be fair, the mirror universe in general, even in the DS9 era, is kind of Star Wars-y.

  In general, though, it sometimes gets annoying when the franchises swap aesthetics, even back to V when they did bargain bin Mos Eisley (the bar in III was hilariously campy, though). Recently, I watched the first episode of a certain Star Wars series on a friend’s recommendation (I wouldn’t have otherwise), and at one point, I was like, “What the heck! This is supposed to be a rough pirate ship, but there’s so little weathering on the set that this could be a Federation starship!”
