Does anyone else think that John Williams is a bit of a plagiariser? Seeing as John Williams has won numerous Oscars for Best Original Score. Here are some examples:
Just listen to Dvorák?s symphony no. 9 ? the last movement (Allegro con fuoco). It starts out with the Jaws theme almost note for note and then sounds exactly like the Throne Room music from Star Wars. Have a listen to a sample on amazon:

It?s not a coincidence because George Lucas asked Williams to listen to Dvorak?s music before writing the music to Star Wars.
Also, the music that ends E.T. (saying goodbye) sounds very similar to Richard Strauss? Death and Transfiguration.
