How does fear and moral and emotions stop you from accomplishing your goals? Looking back at Cool Hand Luke situation, he really lets his behavior interfere with life. But, on the other hand he really doesn’t. Luke really just talks back to his boss and workers. He just doesnt know how to react to those emotions and how to let them out. Later in the movie, Lukes mom dies and so his partners gave him so much respect for that. They all left the room for him to grieve. Than the boss’s worker locked him into the box because his mom died for a reason I don’t understand but its probably cause he didn’t know to react and give him the affection that Luke needed.

Thats when he began to really act out. He tried to leave the place. He

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.

The bad things that happened to the Jedi order were the results of their millennia of non-virtuous acts. The Jedi, throughout their many years of power, committed almost every single non-virtue, and did many of them with the wrong views and with a harmful intent due to their arrogance. So Anakin was just an instrument of karma that actually cleansed the bad karma that the Jedi had built up. In that way, he fulfilled the prophecy, bringing balance to the force by balancing the karma of the Jedi. Therefore, the true blame for the destruction of the Jedi lies with the Jedi, not

Anakin Skywalker’s journey in the galaxy made him my favorite character while watching the saga. Watching the prequel trilogy before the original trilogy, especially in episode one, had me rooting for Anakin. He was very kind and compassionate towards Qui-Gon Jinn and Padme Amidala who were strangers to him at the time. When Qui-Gon Jinn discovers Anakin’s extremely high midi-chlorians count, it is believed that Anakin is the Chosen One. Then Anakin is older in episodes two and three, it is evident that Anakin becomes power-hungry and controlling.

Throughout the original trilogy, Anakin Skywalker is known as Darth Vader. In episode six, Return of the Jedi, Darth Vader, who is perceived as the evilest being in the
