This picture reminds me of Romeo and Juliet because it shows two rivals fighting. In this comparison of the book and movie, Darth Maul represents the fiery Tybalt and Obi-Wan Kenobi portrays the lovesick Romeo. In Star Wars, Darth Maul kills Qui-Gon Jinn which forces Obi-Wan to kill Darth Maul to revenge the death of his friend. This scene is played out in Romeo and Juliet when Tybalt kills Mercutio and Romeo must revenge the death of Mercutio. Although both stories are utterly different, they both share the same idea of arch rivals.
