This is a blog about the future of Star Wars, and it’s been a while since we’ve been able to write about that. The big news is that there’s going to be a new Star Wars movie. This week the first trailer came out. It looks good.
Episode VII: The Force Awakens
The title of Episode VII implies that the force will be awakened at some point in the film, but we know from the trailer that it is already awake in at least one person. In fact, it looks like quite a lot of people are using the Force in this film, including some people who clearly aren’t Jedi. We even see Stormtroopers jumping around on what appear to be floating platforms, like bad guys from an old video game.
What do we think? Will these Stormtroopers have superpowers? Does “the Force Awakens” imply that something interesting happens to the nature of the Force in this film? Or is it just a title?
The new Star Wars film, Episode VII: The Force Awakens, is the latest instalment in a series that began over thirty years ago. The plot, which centres around a group of aliens and humans fighting against each other with laser swords and spaceships, has made the stories among the most financially successful films ever made.
But what are the themes of this hugely popular franchise? And what does this mean for the future of cinema? This blog looks at some of these questions.
I started this series of posts last year with a blog post called Star Wars: A Theory, which was an attempt to figure out the themes of Episode VII. I’ve been doing some thinking about the film for a while now, and it’s time to share my thoughts.
The first thing I’d like to make clear is that I’m not going to be discussing the plot or characters of the movie. I don’t want to spoil anything for anyone, so if you want to learn more about that stuff, you’ll have to wait until later in the week (we’ll be posting a bunch of articles). In this post, I’m only going to talk about the themes that are in play here.
The second thing I’d like to make clear is that Episode VII is not a sequel. It’s more of a reboot, or maybe even a reimagining of the original trilogy. It’s going to take place 30 years after Return of the Jedi, and it will feel very different from any of the previous episodes. The original trilogy was about good versus evil, but Episode VII will be about good versus evil as well as good versus dark side. It will feel fresh and new and different from what we’ve seen before.
This third point is important: A
Star Wars is a military science fiction franchise set in an imaginary universe. The heroic Jedi Knights battle the evil Sith, who are bent on ruling over the galaxy.
The future of Star Wars is a blog about the future of Star Wars and related topics. Writing a blog about the future of Star Wars is an interesting way to think about what could happen in the future, as well as how it could affect our lives.
The movies themselves have been a huge success, but there are many people who do not like them and want them to go away. Some people feel that they are not realistic enough, while others do not like their portrayal of women or other aspects of their representation of different cultures and religions.
The first step to solving any problem is admitting that you have one. This article will explore some of the ways in which Star Wars movies have either been too negative or too positive in their portrayal of certain groups or races and how this can affect people’s perceptions of what they see on screen.
It will also present some ideas for making more realistic representations without sacrificing any part of what makes these films so popular among fans around the world.
It’s a remarkable challenge, taking the helm of Episode VII. It’s daunting, but I’m incredibly excited about the story, and to be working with such brilliant people. The script is fun, it’s full of surprises, and it’s going to be an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.
We are very grateful to George Lucas for creating this incredible world and beginning a story that has passed the test of time. Star Wars has been entertaining generations since 1977 and we are honored to have the opportunity to bring this beloved series to its passionate fans with our partner Disney.
We’re putting the cast together as we speak. We have a lot of them already but we’re just not completely done with that yet.
“It’s all about the script,” he said. “It has to be story first.”
Rogue One: A Star Wars Story has been out for a while now and I’m sure people have noticed a few small callbacks to the original trilogy that haven’t been featured in any of the prequel movies. While some of the hints were obvious, there were a few subtle nods to Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope.
Perhaps one of the most interesting callbacks is Chirrut Îmwe’s costume. It takes on a familiar Stormtrooper look with its white armor, black underlay, and red shoulder plating. While there are a lot of similarities between Chirrut’s costume and the Stormtrooper costumes we know from A New Hope, there are also some notable differences.
First off, Chirrut Îmwe wears his signature armor throughout the entire movie! Unlike Stormtroopers who change clothes depending on what they’re doing, whether that be on a ship or in the field. The helmet is also another notable difference as it is shaped differently than what we usually see worn by Stormtroopers.
The only time we see a Stormtrooper in something similar to Chirrut Îmwe’s costume is when we first
I got my first stormtrooper costume for Halloween in 1977. It was a muscle chest with a plastic mask, and it was very uncomfortable. I’ve been a Star Wars fan since then, so it’s only natural that I’ve collected costumes over the years.
My favorite is the Stormtrooper Deluxe, manufactured by Rubies Costume Company. At $300.00, it’s not cheap. But if you’re a serious collector, or you want to wear it on screen, it’s well worth the money.
This costume has been approved by Lucasfilm Ltd., which means you can wear it in official fan films, conventions, or fan events. The helmet is made of plastic and features a retractable visor. The jumpsuit is black and made of abrasion-resistant fabric; it’s resistant to tearing and stretching. It zips up the front, and includes three pockets for your stuff. The suit also comes with fully-articulated armor plates, which are made from ABS plastic (the same material as LEGO bricks). They look great when painted white!
If you really like this costume, you can order additional items from Rubies’ site: jetpack (for flying), night vision goggles (for seeing in the dark), gloves (
