Star Wars Week: The Star Wars Movie Matrix

Below is the matrix for many of the story, character, and location conventions in the (so far..) six-strong Star Wars film saga. For my own sanity, and the sanity of my fellow Star Wars fans, I have not included The Star Wars Holiday Special (1978) in the matrix.  

That established, there are, actually, some overlapping conventions with that crazy production. But I'll leave it to you, intrepid readers, to tag them...
