Bringing Back The Big Guns - A Star Wars

The Force Awakens is the newest episode of Star Wars that has been released in theatres, and takes place many years after the fall of the Galactic Empire. The Resistance, the new Rebel Alliance, now faces a new threat, the First Order. In the hopes of defeating this threat, they look to Luke Skywalker, who’s whereabouts are unknown. Rey, the capable and independent protagonist, rescues a BB-8 unit and discovers it holds the missing piece of the map that leads to Luke. Together, along with Finn, Han Solo, and Chewbacca, they must find a way to deliver the piece of the map to The Resistance and stop the First Order’s plans of annihilation.

Episode IV was set during a time of war between the Rebellion, the good side, and the Empire, which is considered the evil side. The science fiction story is about a young man, Luke Skywalker, who travels into space to fight against the Empire. Luke is from the planet Tatooine, a desert, where he farms water with his uncle. Luke’s uncle buys two droids, R2D2 and C3PO, who happen to have been involved in the war and worked for the rebellion. Luke discovers a recording in one of the droids of Princess Leia saying she needed help, and that sparks the beginning of his journey. He meets Ben, also known as Obi-Wan Kenobi, who becomes his mentor, and teaches him how to use “the force”. In Star Wars, “the force” is a magical way for people to control things using their unconscious minds. Luke sets out on a journey into space to rescue the princess and join the Rebellion in the war effort. Luke and Obi-Wan meet Han solo, a pilot, and ask him to take them into space. They plan to go to Alderaan, Princess Leia’s home planet; however, they are unintentionally sucked into the Death Star, the spacecraft and weapon of the Empire. They find out that Princess Leia is being held in the Death Star, and they plan to help her escape. While Han and Luke try to help Leia, Obi-Wan is fighting Darth Vader, the evil leader of the Empire. Unfortunately, Obi-Wan is killed by Darth Vader; although, Luke, Han and Leia escape the Death Star. They go to a Rebellion headquarter and find the weak spot of the Death Star.

The entire plot of Return of the Jedi is the conclusion of a story of a young man and his friends trying to find their way in a battle between good and evil. Throughout the film, the characters each have their own, unique, inner struggle while all fighting in the same galactic battle. While the theme of darkness versus light is strong, there are also hints of other themes, such as power, corruption, love and sacrifice. All of these components are set in front of the backdrop of a nonstop battle between the freedom seeking Rebels and the evil Galactic Empire.

Star Wars is your typical story arc spread out into three movies. “A New Hope” is the introduction where you meet the main characters and learn of the Imperial Army. “The Empire Strikes Back” is the movie in which the audience learns of the main conflict. The main characters meet the antagonist, Darth Vader, and must escape his clutches. “Return of The Jedi” is the resolution where the final battle between Luke and Darth Vader happens. Many directors have attempted this setup and some of the films rose to the occasions and others fell. What makes Star Wars successful is a mix of the captivating characters, sci-fi setting, and each movie is its own story that fit

Though long in the works, the December release of “Star Wars: Episode VII — The Force Awakens,” the series’ latest installment, “put fuel to the fire,” said Smith.

A children’s book supposedly depicting the story of the upcoming film “Star Wars: The Force Awakens” has been found online while Google Cardboard is set to promote the movie by providing virtual reality “Star Wars” content.

For both movies, it is a little confusing in the beginning because of the new characters in the beginning of the movies and you just jump right into the plot line. The Force Awakens plot line seems to make more sense throughout the movie and it's easier to understand if you have watched the other movies. It has the same characters as the previous movies but there are a few new characters. In The Force Awakens, the movie takes place at least 20 years after Return of the Jedi. Princess Leia and Han Solo have a son together, and becomes evi. Rogue One has new characters in it and doesn't fit as well as it should because of the new characters, which makes it a little more complicated to follow along with since there is a lot of new characters to keep track of. When watching the movies, watching them in order by movie number is ideal. Rogue One fits in after the Empire Strikes Back and before Return of the Jedi because the plot line places the movie in that time period. The Force Awakens fits in after Return of the Jedi because that is what the timeline places the movie

Another similarity between A New Hope and The Force Awakens is the delivery of the plan, while both share the same journey, New Hope is more superior. In the Force Awakens, the location of Luke is given to the astromech droid, BB-8 to deliver to the Resistance. In the opening sequence, the First Order Star Destroyer can be dropping transport ships into a village on the planet, Jakku. Before the capture of Poe Dameron, he is giving an important message as well as the plans of the location of Luke Skywalker to a droid known as BB-8. The droid must find his way back to the Resistance Headquarters, with the help of Rey and Finn. In the same way, the Death Star’s plan in the New Hope is given to the astromech droid, R2-D2 to deliver to the Rebellion.

The movie Star Wars – A New Hope accommodates various elements of fantasies, the element of fantasy that I appointed is action and adventure. In the movie there are several scenes that help support my choice. For example, when Luke Skywalker, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Han solo, and Chewbacca accidentally land on the death star and then rescue the imprisoned princes. Another scene where the action and adventure can be descried is when Obi-Wan Kenobi battles Darth Vader, who was once the apprentice of Obi-Wan Kenobi indicated that the movie possesses the element of fantasy, action and adventure. The scene that the movie builds up to, the fight between the rebellion and the death star is also the scene that contains the most action and adventure. The rebellions

The LEGO Star Wars: TFA game is based on the Force Awakens movie, and yes, it does feature a massive spoiler for the movie (that thing that happens), so do not play the game unless you have watched the movie first. The app is free, but there is plenty of in-app purchases, such as packs that make the game impossible to fully complete if you do not purchase them. You get to play as Rey, Finn, Poe Dameron, Han Solo, and BB-8 during the campaign modes, and you may also unlock Kylo Ren and General Hux too.

The first concerns our little green friend Yoda. StarWarsNewsNet is reporting that the former Jedi Grand Master may make an appearance in The Force Awakens. A source close to the website 'assured' them that a scene featuring Yoda will be present in the film.

In terms of the success of the Star Wars franchise, publicizing and merchandising are what make the franchise so psychologically appealing, which in turn has yielded to its consistent cultural impact over the years.

The release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens is imminent and all fans old as well as new are getting ready to enjoy the movie. Usually these start with marathon runs of watching all the Star Wars movie. Every Star Wars fan will have his theory on the correct order to watch Star Wars movies. New fans to the series are clueless what order to follow when they immerse them into the Star Wars world. Star Wars fans are one of the most opinionated fan base around and that is not a bad thing, it comes out of the love for the iconic series.

Star Wars: A New Hope and 12 Angry Men are two movies that have underlying similarities and visible differences. While not entirely obvious, there are similarities between the movies based on character development and plot lines. Due to the nature of the two movies, it is extremely obvious as to the differences between the two. The similarities include the character development of Juror 7 (Jack Warden) in 12 Angry Men and Han Solo (Harrison Ford) in Star Wars: A New Hope and a “good vs. bad” theme. Some of the differences include the setting of the two movies and the drastic difference in special effects.

A New Hope and The Force Awakens are two very similar movies when it comes to plot structure, reason being is that the director wanted to get the original fan base onboard when restarting the Star Wars franchise. And with that in mind, you start to hear many similarities in the scores as well. John Williams brings back a few of the classic themes from the first movie, such as the opening theme, Luke’s theme, Han and Leia’s theme, Leia’s theme, Rebel Fanfare, and of course the Imperial March. As well as having classic themes, John Williams also brings in some new ones such as Rey’s theme, Kylo Ren’s theme, and the Resistance theme. The Force Awakens is the start of a new generation for Star Wars, and the way that Williams scored the Force Awakens seems to be a lot more nuanced and has a sense of familiarity to it that connects to A New Hope to attract the older generation of fans.
