Odysseus each had a different type of mentor but they didn’t have two types of mentors. As I looked into these different types of mentors I was curious to see how they affected the hero in different ways. In the movie Revenge Of The Sith when Palpatine turns vader into a sith and twisted his mind to kill the one he loved, once Vader learns that he killed padme is is angered for the rest of his life. That is an example of a dark mentor but what about the fairy godmother in Cinderella? The fairy godmother
REVENGE OF THE SITH Star Wars, Episode III This story happened a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away. It is already over. Nothing can be done to change it. It is a story of love and loss, brotherhood and betrayal, courage and sacrifice and the death of dreams. It is a story of the blurred line between our best and our worst. It is the story of the end of an age. A strange thing about stories— Though this all happened so long ago and so far away that words cannot describe the time
When the original Star Wars trilogy established the Jedi and Sith, the inspirations and concepts for their costumes were purposely put in the forefront and made obvious to emphasize their position in this fantasy galaxy set far, far away. The costume of the main villain Darth Vader was based on gas masks, samurai armor and Nazi designs to punctuate the despair and fear in his image while his enemy Obi-wan Kenobi was clearly meant to provoke a sense of wisdom and power through his wizard-like attire
In Lords of the Sith, Darth Vader and the Emperor are trying to take down resistance movements in this book more specifically the Free Ryloth movement. Ryloth is a planet that is being occupied by imperial forces, The free ryloth movement is acting as terrorists in Lord Vader and his master's eyes. They soon realize that the reason the movement is succeeding so well is because they are having help from someone on the inside. So to take care of this threat Vader and the Emperor head to Ryloth with
Wars. It is such a fascinating and great movie going experience. There have been a total of seven Star Wars films, but in this essay I am going to be focusing on Star Wars: Episode 3- Revenge of the Sith. This film was written and directed by George Lucas and of the science fiction genre. Revenge of the Sith was released in theaters on May 19, 2005. The constant theme throughout this movie is the battle between good and evil, right and wrong, and light and dark. Anakin Skywalker is the main protagonist
throughout the play, is considered the most intense and complex tragedy, and being that special kind of tragedy Macbeth is. It has left a template for modern epics such as, the fall of Anakin Skywalker from George Lucas’s, Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith, and like Macbeth, Star Wars is just as complex. Shakespeare’s last tragedy was a type of wonder because it was not
my heart leap! I love the cliché romance between Howl and Sophie and the friendship they have built together. For these reasons I would say that Howls Moving Castle has one of the happiest endings of all time! ‘Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith’, in
Much like how the West created an inaccurate depiction of the East, the Jedi constructs an “other”, which in the Star Wars universe, is the Sith. The disparity between the Jedi and the Sith is in the way they access the Force; the Jedi practice passivity, while on the other hand, the Sith have no boundaries set on they can channel the Force. This gives the Sith the potential to become more powerful than a practiced Jedi who follows the strict boundaries set in place by the Jedi Order. This fear of
The third and final prequel to George Lucas's Star Wars trilogy Revenge of the Sith is the midpoint of the Star Wars saga. It is the climax of the Star Wars prequels and leads magnificently and flawlessly into the completion of the original trilogy. The original trilogy led up to a happy ending complete with fireworks and scenes of different planets celebrating. The prequels tell a similar hero's journey, but instead of an affirming story about believing in oneself, it is a dire warning about the
Expanded Universe including books, television series, computer and video games, and comic books. The franchise depicts a galaxy described as far, far away in the distant past, and it commonly portrays Jedi as a representation of good, in conflict with the Sith, their evil counterpart. Their weapon of choice, the lightsaber, is commonly recognized in popular culture. It is arguably a cinematic masterpiece, holding in rank two of possibly the greatest trilogies the world has ever seen. It is a timeless epic
as a warrior, but learning the ways. Although Luke maybe a learner and Beowulf may be a skilled killer, they both represent the same thing, the last hope for man kind. Luke is considered to last hope because he is the last Jedi left to destroy the sith. In Beowulf, he is the last great hero that can defend the world from all the evil. One thing that is clearly shown in both Beowulf and Star Wars, is than at the end of both, the fighting continues. Even after Beowulf destroys the hell damn, grendel
to bring people together at the right time. Specific people have the ability to feel disturbances in the force, such as deaths, if they are more connected to the force. Everyone has the ability to use the force, but its also a choice, every Jedi and Sith can chose to be in-tune with the force. The force in “Star Wars,” is what gives a Jedi their power, it’s an energy field that holds everything together. Both sides of the force are equally strong and if one rules completely it is not good for the galaxy
influential, that anything would be possible. But when a person uses power for evil, it could possibly provoke the most horrible events imaginable. One person who used power for evil was a character from the movie Star Wars Episode III: Revenge of the Sith created by George Lucas. The characters name was Chancellor Palpatine. In a span of about fifteen years, he was able to manipulate the political system of the Galactic Republic so that he would come to power. With various events such as the Clone Wars
The Jedi were in charge of the Clone Army while they defended the Republic from the Separatists. Often times it seemed like the Clone troops were protecting and defending the Republic but they were used as a secret weapon for the Sith, so they were used for undercover purposes. The Jedi Council represents the Justices in the Judicial Branch because they served as the administrative body that governed the Order's academies, temples, and organizations such as the Jedi Service Corps
The Jedi live simple lives and tend to stray from relying on the use of computers or gadgets; they need only the force to guide them. In contrast, the Sith are often associated with machinery, such as robust ships and intricate weaponry, beginning their conquest through the use of Droids and later using cloning technology to create a perfect army. Despite the lack of apparent resources and technology
Star Wars is the biggest influence and best rated sci-fi series in all of America. With unforgettable characters, unique weapons and aircraft, and powerful mythology, Star Wars has shaped how all outer-planetary sci-fi movies and shows are made today. Although many people think Star Wars is an exact replica of Star Trek, they are sadly mistaken. Time frame, species, events, mythology, characters, it’s all different and in no way better than Star Wars. Star Wars began with one mans stellar imagination
Star Wars: The Fans Awaken Directing a new movie in a series would always be nerve racking, directing a new movie in one of the most successful series of all time, while working for a company that just recently bought the franchise, would be slightly intimidating. The Force Awakens was a highly anticipated film, Star Wars fans of all ages came out of the wood work. You couldn't go anywhere without hearing something about it. The film had to be perfect; it had to please the older generation by meeting
Star Wars super fan, Max Mezrah, recently had the experience of a lifetime; he travelled to London for the premiere of Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens. He later went to Paris to watch the film again. Star Wars Episode VII: The Force Awakens was one of the most highly anticipated releases of 2015. The 2 hour and 16 minute film released on December 18 made a whopping $248M on opening weekend. It has now grossed $1,766,587,937 worldwide. “Star Wars was, at the time, a cultural revolution
JJ Abrams recently revived the Star Wars franchise with the release of Star Wars The Force Awakens, but has Abrams revived the franchise for the betterment? I was fortunate enough to watch The Force Awakens myself in theatres and I personally enjoyed the film. In par with the prequels the sequel is remarkably fresh, new, and nostalgic. JJ Abrams has succeeded in recreating the franchise by incorporating well-developed characters, a fresh, but nostalgic atmosphere, and following a great storyline
cultural hubs. Which, given that we follow the good guys, makes sense. Implicit in the Star Wars movies is the idea that places of wealth and opulence are the breeding grounds of evil. In other words, the real villain in Star Wars is capitalism (and the Sith too but bear with me here). Let’s look at where we spend time among the wealthy in the Original Trilogy. Outside of Imperial Battle Stations, the only place we visit that is remotely 'first world' is Cloud City, a gorgeous city whose wealth is built
