Farmboy thinks he's nobody. (Evil parents/step-parents/foster home optional here) Dead parents advised. Horribly dead for preference (easy lead in to nemesis)

Farmboy meets old man, gets told he's somebody.

Farmboy has adventures with either a band of experienced adventurers or similar misfits.

Farmboy has destiny. Realises said destiny.

Farmboy gets princess/popular girl who was previously out of his league.

Funnily enough, that's a fairly popular plot.

But Vader didn't kill Owen and Beru. The Stormtroopers did. So it doesn't quite hold up.

Oh dear god, I'm a geek.

well not *personally*. whats the use of being an evil leader if you have to do all your own dirty work?
