George Lucas, creator of the Star Wars movie trilogy, hates the usage most of all. His company, Lucasfilm, asked a Washington federal district court to enjoin the TV spot on the ground that it damages a valuable trademark (film revenues to date: $1.3 billion) by taking Star Wars out of "the congenial realm...
