How would you noramlly say sentences with "such as" or "like" in Japanese?
Some examples in English would be
"He looks 'like' his father"
"Directors 'such as' George Lucas are very good"

"be like" is translated as 〜のような, "look like" is 〜ににている/ 〜とにている and "such as" is 〜のような/ そのような in general.
"He looks like his father" --> かれはおとうさんににている。
"Directors 'such as' George Lucas are very good" --> ジョージ ルーカスのようなえいがかんとくはとてもよい。
I hope this was helpful.
