Star Wars 7. Broadcast News I’m thinking _Star Wars_ is a stretch. The romance in it was not the main story. And to what degree it was there, it was a love triangle and Leia and Han did end up together in the end. ---

And to what degree it was there, it was a love triangle and Leia and Han did end up together in the end. Hey, I explained my reasoning, but if you don’t think it fits with your concept, feel free to remove it. I won’t be offended. 🙂 ---
