William Shatner On Star Trek Vs Star Wars (tekgoblin.com)

I recently caught Episode III again. Among other nice touches, it has a lovely scene showing Obi Wan heading into a sinkhole (cave) on a planet surrounded by moons (water/aggression). On his arrival a character walks over and says "there is no war here, unless you've brought it with you."

It's probably fair to say that Lucas made the same film six times, but I find the moral center and symbolic subtlety of his work interesting. I've never gotten that feeling of thematic consistency and purpose from Star Trek.
