What Are The Similarities Between The Hunger Games And Star Wars

The Hero’s journey in The Hunger Games, Star Wars, and A Wrinkle in Time have numerous similarities and a couple of different differences that are key to the stories/movies. With these different points, the best to work through, with some of the best correspondence and comparison between the three would be, the ordinary world, call to adventure, and mentor helper.

Between the Call to Adventure and all of the books, there are a couple of different ways that similarities and differences were conjoined together throughout. With this, Katniss is being called to fight in the Hunger Games. Luke wants to go and fight the empire, and Meg is going to go fight the “Black Thing”. To start, they are all fighting for their family or someone in particular, which could even be their village or their hometown. Meaning, in The Hunger Games she, being Katniss, is fighting for her mother and her sister, Prim to try and get a better life for them. Since, her father had died, her mother has been really heavy hearted, and not being

able to take care of her children in a responsible fashion. Plus, in A Wrinkle in Time she is fighting for her father, and her family. Meg doesn’t like being worried and concerned for where her father is. Therefore, she goes on with what she needs to do for the people she loves, no matter how high the risk is. Lastly, even in Star Wars Luke Skywalker is fighting for his aunt and uncle, and himself. He wants to follow in his father’s footsteps, and do what he wants to do in life for him and for his village. Therefore, throughout these stories there are many different similarities and differences between them.
With the next part of the Hero’s journey, being the Ordinary World, there are different inequalities and alikeness between the books as well. Between the three books, there are just normal children living in there normal town and communities. However, with the Call to Adventure they are either being transformed into something they want to be, or don’t want to be. For example, the sameness of the book, A Wrinkle in Time, and Star Wars, they are wanting to do this specific task, and nobody is forcing them into any sort of uncomfortable situation. Like, for Meg she is wanting to find her father, and Luke is wanting to fight for his planet, and the people that are under the roof of it. However, with the inequality of Katniss, she was forced into becoming something that she never wanted to face. Being, fighting for her life in a closed arena that people throughout her country of Panem are fighting for as well. Therefore, throughout the different pieces of the ordinary world there are a couple of different ways that the relationships and unlikeness of the different stories have clashed together and shown.
Lastly, with the main point of the hero’s journey, mentor helper, there were a couple of different ways that there was similarities and differences between the couple of personalities that were displayed throughout the books.

To takeoff, there in A Wrinkle in Time, there were three mentors being shown, named Mrs. Which, Mrs. Who, and Mrs. Whatsit. In The Hunger Games, there was, Haymitch, or their sponsor. Plus, in Star Wars, there is Obi Wan Kenobi as the mentor. Therefore, the similarities of these books is that they are all helping the children in a certain and specific way. However, in A Wrinkle in Time there is more than one mentor, and in Hunger Games the sponsor, Haymitch isn’t that involved, being a very alcoholic man. Therefore, between these books with the different mentors, there are some that are very involved, or maybe not, and some that might seem to not be helping that you will possibly thank in the end of the journey, or the Hero’s

Journey.
These are all of the different diversities, and synonyms between the books, A Wrinkle in Time, Star Wars, and The Hunger Games.
