While Clone Wars focused on physical and character development, while also having a longer series, Rebels prefers to stay where they are comfortable and move at a fast pace in an episode, thus ending the series faster. In some ways their differences help grow their popularity. The differences also show how Lucasfilm sometimes strays from normality and tries something new. Though they have different physical appearances, expectations, and they move at their own rate, they both easily please their intended audience with their characters and Star Wars relation. This shows how two items can be significantly different, but still be immensely

"Star Wars" was arguably the first in a new breed of high concept, high budget sci-fi action films. It was directed by George Lucas and originally released in only a few cinemas in 1977. However, the buzz around the film grew, and it is now one of the highest grossing films of all time, and along with its sequels, prequels and re-mastered re-releases, has a large cult following. I feel this is because of Lucas` ability to engage the audience through careful use of sound and camera technique;

On May 25, 1977, Star Wars Episode IV: A New Hope was released. George Lucas created the science fiction series using Joseph Campbell’s hero’s journey plot structure. Campbell created the plot structure by expanding on psychologist Carl Jung’s idea of the archetype. Archetypes are reoccurring symbols that can be found in literature, music, and art. Lucas found that Campbell’s Hero’s Journey was the perfect structure for the plot of Star Wars. The Hero’s Journey consists of ten steps which the protagonist, usually the hero, has to complete. Throughout the movie, George Lucas perfectly orchestrated all ten steps of the Hero’s Journey, and also used dozens of the archetypes that Campbell created.

The films he created allowed the new generation of movie goers to have their own movie, that everyone could relate too.

The editing use within Star Wars was uncommon for films to incorporate the use of computers models, the use of the computer aided effects started to effect other films in the making, allowing them to add more to the story and attract the new age of the audience. Also lets take into account that Lucas was not only a one film director, he also had created the Indiana Jones series, another blockbuster film. Some on the trademarks used by Lucas in Star Wars and Indiana Jones are still used today within other films, some examples of Lucas’s trademarks are his use of battle scenes by a large pit, visual effects, and also the use of soft-edge wipes as transitions. In addition, everything Lucas was doing was to get the new generation of movie attenders to come and see the new film in the theaters. As a parallel too today, movies are coming out every week, each one different from the other, but if you look closely at each of the movies the use of visual effects within the movies have stayed the same, from having half of New York always destroyed or from having more

Despite my love for that fight, even at my young age I realized the rest of the film wasn’t as good as the climax. The same holds true now, as Attack of the Clones is only marginally better than its predecessor.
