Actually I think this thread is interesting and shouldn't be stopped, simply because a few people voiced their opinions.
Personally, the fact that modern composers with newer ideas still cannot outshine composers who wrote music 200 to 100 in a popularity contest, even amongst composers, is very telling.
As for Williams stealing, rather than writing him off because a few bars of his work sound like the end of Mars, you'd do better to actually listen to his work. The Star Wars soundtracks are possibly the best films soundtracks ever scored (although I'm sure there are some equally amazing scores from bygone eras). Of course it's influenced by other works... isn't every single piece ever written except the first piece of music ever?
