Nah for all the criticism Star Wars gets for being a remake for A New Hope Creed is even more identical to Rocky shyt the ending is the EXACT SAME it even dumps the realistic style of the fights earlier in the film to make a new generation of the old corny rumble and tumble fights of the old Rocky series.
1. Its a boxing film. So its sort of restricted by the possible outcomes and scenarios.
2. Star Wars is in ANOTHER GALAXY, FAR FAR AWAY and chose to make a good, but limited film. They chose a safe route when they had endless possibilities.
3. Waaaayyyy more obvious hints, winks, nods in TFA than Creed. Creeds hints are far more subtle and nuanced.
4. Creed works much better as a standalone movie than TFA. What makes TFA so *potentially great* is that the next movies will flesh out the things we didn't get in this movie.
5. Its just a better made film breh. Creed felt like world building (which to be fair is even easier to do in a boxing film) than Star Wars. Way too many coincidences.
ETA: I don't think Creed is 10 times better though.....just better.
