I saw somewhere an interesting article about how Christopher Lee's character in SW2 tries to seduce Obi-Wan to the dark side when Obi-Wan is a prisoner in his lair, and how Christopher Lee's character in LOTR (Saruman) tries to get Gandalf to join him while Gandalf is a prisoner in his "lair". I thought it was pretty freaky. Also Gandalf, the larger-than-life good guy in LOTR, fights Saruman and Yoda, the (small) larger-than-life good guy in SW, fights Dooku. WEIRD!
