Star Wars is a science fiction universe, created by the minds of George Lucas and Steven Spielberg, which has been taking the world by loved since the 70’s. With its only main competitor being Star Trek, Star Wars has becoming ever more popular ever since its first red carpet premiere in 1977.

The Star Wars prequels were hated by a lot of people but, are they that bad? Some complaints against the prequels have been restated over and over again so much so that it’s just accepted as fact that the prequels are horrible movies that “ruined star wars” but are they?

Although the movies are mostly devoted to the growth of the
of a whole generation, as a lasting impression of a film that has influenced many. Star Wars is one of the best conceptual films of all time, and it gave way for future films to experiment with film techniques that have never been done before. Star Wars gave me a sense of involvement with the film, because the camera angles immersed the viewer in the film and gave them an interactive experience. In my mind Star Wars is arguably the best film of all time, because of the next generation techniques used
Science Fiction is a younger literary genre than most. While it is several centuries old, to compare it to other genres that have been around for millennia, it maintains a sense of freshness and potential beyond the intrinsic trait of Sci-Fi that is the focus on the beyond; an emphasis on what is attainable a few centuries from now, and where will humanity be?
