I don't think any of his "major" themes were stolen, unlike ALW and Phantom - thats the opening theme. Its true that sections of Star Wars were almost directly lifted from Gustav Holtz "The Planets". But we're talking about really minor sections. Not the Main Theme. Not the Imperial March. not the Han and Leia theme

And the entire film score is a good 30 minutes or so.

I remember when I was younger I could simply lie back and listen to the entire film score and it was almost like watching the movie, in some cases even better
