Don’t worry Han, you’re title as the galaxy’s quickest pilot is all but secure, as Thor Odinson doesn’t seem to be particularly gifted when it comes to the whole “maneuvering a giant flying saucer” gag. In this latest THOR: THE DARK WORLD clip, our favorite Asgardian blondie commands a Dark Elf vessel, presumably after he’s rescued Loki from Odin’s super secure prison.

Is it me, or do those Asgardian spaceships bear a striking resemblance to one of George Lucas’s famed creations, the Jedi starfighters? I was unable to snag a high quality screenshot of those Norse contraptions, so you’ll have to make do with these less-than-stellar grabs below. I know the Thor designs are meant to resemble flying Viking ships, with winged sails on either side, nevertheless, they’re incredibly similar to those starfighters from a galaxy far, far away, and I can’t help but wonder if Disney’s recent acquisition of LucasFilms is the reason?
