A side by side scene comparison between the ending of "The Last Jedi" (2017) and "Escape from L.A." (1996).
I've got to admit there's a strong resemblance.

yes, it's too close for comfort, I am not even sure if it would hold up legally. The script also sports ample elements from Battlefield Galactica and others.
Johnson never was a too original (see Looper too which features Omen, Terminator, X-Mutants etc). A subverter more than an originator.
Still, stealing from outside it better than stealing from SW, like JJ Abrams did - TLJ despite largly following Empire's template feels at least remotely fresh and original at places.
