Star Wars: The Greatest Directors In Hollywood

E.T. the Extra Terrestrial, Jurassic Park, Gremlins, and Raiders of the Lost Ark. These classic action/adventure/sci-fi movies all have one thing in common: the well-known director that is Steven Spielberg. With 189 awards won and another 194 nominations, there is no wonder why Spielberg is Hollywood’s best known director. Credited for the most intriguing, captivating, and classic films since the 1970s, Spielberg continues creating films to this day, with many recent announcements for upcoming films such as Gremlins 3, West Side Story (remake), and Jurassic World 3. Perhaps my favorite Spielberg film at the moment, however, is Raiders of the Lost Ark. Released in 1981, this film combines action, adventure, and history into a single film that constantly had me on the edge of my seat. With Harrison Ford taking up the lead role of Indiana Jones and Karen Allen as Marion, Raiders of the Lost Ark secured 34 awards and another 23 nominations for its outstanding cast and crew, cinematography,

George Lucas has accomplished much in his 70 years of life. There are many people in Hollywood who would give anything for a fraction of his success. Yet one of the best things about George Lucas is that he is essentially the same person who decided to change career paths from a hospital bed in 1962 to become one of the most influential filmmakers in Hollywood history.

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.

Once again, ‘Star Wars’ has made cinematic history. Through the unprecedented use of CGI, Peter Cushing’s character, Grand Moff Tarkin returned to the screen twelve years after the actor passed away, by digitally inserting details of Cushing’s face onto the face of actor Guy Henry, who possesses a similar facial structure. This same technique allowed Carrie Fisher’s likeness of Princess Leia from 1977 to appear on Ingvild Deila in a cameo role. In light of Carrie Fisher’s death as of December 27th, 2016, her character’s role in the current line of Star Wars films, Episodes VIII, and IX in question. Many are wondering if this same new CGI trick will be used to resurrect the older ‘General’ Leia Organa in future films. The question arises, however:

I am a sap for movies and television shows that involve action and science fiction. This started when I was seven years old when I was shown my first episode of Star Trek, “The Trouble with Tribbles”, which quickly led to me seeing all of Star Trek, Star Wars, Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings. These movies have shaped who I am and have instilled in me an instant fondness for anyone who pays homage to any of these selections. J. J. Abrams is becoming an idol for bringing both Star Wars and Star Trek to this century. When I saw this film I was stunned by its beauty and imagination, yet they are not perfect. This leads me to a definite conclusion. Although J. J. Abrams has been in every position around the directing chair whether it be producing,

Star Wars: Return of the Jedi is final chapter in an epic story of good versus evil. The script was written by George Lucas and was released in theatres on May 25, 1983 (IMDb.com). It was the third film released in the Star Wars saga, following Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope and Star Wars: Episode V - The Empire Strikes Back (IMDb.com). At the time, Episode VI concluded the story of Luke Skywalker and his Rebel friends fighting against Darth Vader and the evil Empire.

Principal photography of Episode VIII has already been initiated at Pinewood Studios in London by Director Rian Johnson. While J.J. Abrams won’t be directing, he will be executive producing the sequel.

Disney officially announced that Indiana Jones 5 is definitely happening and it will be coming to the big screen on July 19, 2019. Harrison Ford will be back and reprise his role as the world’s famous archaeologist and Steven Spielberg will return to direct just like all four previous installments of the franchise.

Although The Force Awakens is a record-breaking, box office smash, Stephen Dalton, movie critic for the Hollywood Reporter, utilizes analogies in his critic to emphasise George Lucas was an innovator and J.J. Abrams was an imitator in the latest saga of Star Wars. This paper will reveal Daltons opinion and evaluate any weaknesses in his critique.

This latest picture of the Star Wars series has been very popular before presented to the public, as is well-known, by some reasons: it is the first “Star Wars” movie which is not directed by Mr. George Lucas and is created after the takeover of the Lucas film by the Walt Disney Company in 2012, and it expresses the world 30 years after a mortal combat between Luke Skywalker and Darth Vader and remarkable characters including Han Solo and Princess Leia appear.

Disney spent lots of money on advertising on that movie. There were many ads on TV, and merchandise was everywhere. Now, they’re even making a whole section in Disney World dedicated to Star Wars. This is all going to attract a way larger audience. Of course, advertisements and merchandise isn’t cheap, but but the profit you’re going to make is probably going to be higher.
