I'd have thought that the Doc's "Lensman" series was just about written
for that kind of stuff. The Lens even pretty much substitutes for The
Force.

The other great film-to-be of Space Opera is of course Asimov's
"Foundation" series, so long as they don't make as bad a fist of it as
they did with "Nightfall".

I've nothing against space opera, but Star Wars is just Sinbad The
Sailor in Space.
