Its always fun spotting similarities in our fave fantasy films. Everyone will know the famous scene in Star Wars, where Princess Leia projects a film from R2D2 speaking the iconic line, Help Me Obi Wan, You're our only Hope.

Well, I heard something very similar in a much older flick this week, the fabulous 7th Voyage of Sinbad, where Sinbad asks the Princess to move a large bolt.
Its a very similar line involving a Princess!
Have a listen. Its at 52.20.
What do you think?
Could there be more only hopes? Is it a trope?
Do you know any more similar lines in films?
"Oh my God..."
