Rogue One not only surpasses the other films in the franchise, but it does so in a clear and well thought out way. It's a film that had no reason to exist but it does meaningfully with a concise plot. The exposition event is when Director Orson Krennic invades Jyn Else's home and tries to make her father Galen Erso work with the Empire. This ends poorly and the Empire killed Galens wife and takes Galen into their ship while Jyn barely escapes. Rising action then takes place when Jyn, K-2SO and Cassian arrives at the holy city of Jedha. They soon discover Saw Gerrera and find out that they need to get the Death Star plans. They then head to Eadu to find Galen Erso and after sometime arguing head to the Imperial’s base on Scariff. The climax occurs when Jyn Erso is about to send the Death Star plans to the rebellion but confronts Krennic. Cassian defeats him and he goes with Jyn to the beach while the watch the planet blows up. The falling action is when Darth vader inceps the Death Star plans but the rebels escape. The resolution is when Prisons Leia is asked what the plans mean and she says Hope. …show more content…
However the film had some flaws. The beginning failed at establishing strong characters. Most of the characters in the film had no in depth personality and instead were just objects to push the story forward. On the other hand, the ending of the film was very effective. It lead well into the beginning of A New Hope. It ends with the rebels fleeing from Vader while A New Hope begins with Darth Vader boarding the rebels ship. Also the audience got an explanation to why the Death Star was so easy to destroy. Galen Erso designed the planet killer with a flaw in the the center of the star. This allowed the rebels to easily blow it up in A New Hope. Rogue One accomplishes its main goal of developing a story outside of the normal episodes in the
My reasons for this opinion are all because of the Disney movie Star Wars: The Force Awakens. First, the two movies The Force Awakens and the New Hope have the exact same plots. In all The other movies of Star Wars each plot is very different. In The Phantom Menace, the first movie in the Star Wars saga, the plot is that
The famous Star Wars is a movie from the epic space film series directed by George Lucas premiered in 1977. Since there are multiple Star Wars movies in the series, this paper will be focusing on the first movie of the series called Star Wars: A New Hope.
“All these memories will be lost, in time, like tears in the rain” the end of one of “the most moving death soliloquies in cinematic history” the replicant Roy Batty explains to his would be killer that everything in his life(Mark Rowlands Philosopher at the end of the Universe 234-235). This is one of the most telling speeches of the replicant Roy Batty in his search for himself. Throughout this semester, in the study for the self, one question has endured, whether each person has a built-in, authentic self, each person strives to identify, or whether each person is “free” to develop their self through their own personal experiences. Both sides to the question have evidence to support their beliefs about the self in every human, and whether it is one consistent self, or it
My second reason that STAR WARS is the better movie franchise is that STAR WARS has better villains. The empire is a far scarier galactic villain than any threat in Star Trek because they control such a large chunk of the STAR WARS universe. Anywhere the rebels go, they have to be on the lookout for servants of the Emperor. On a more specific level, the main villain of STAR WARS: episodes...
Honestly I thought that the movie had such a simple story but at the same time it is so complex. The way it was delivered it was amazing, it's such a moving film. The actor’s were amazing, there isn’t anything I would want to change about this film. I would 100% recommend this movie to anyone, its so inspiring and it really makes you think.
Lucas the chance to make a foothold in the film industry, and he certainly did.
In “The Fish” by Elizabeth Bishop, the narrator attempts to understand the relationship between humans and nature and finds herself concluding that they are intertwined due to humans’ underlying need to take away from nature, whether through the act of poetic imagination or through the exploitation and contamination of nature. Bishop’s view of nature changes from one where it is an unknown, mysterious, and fearful presence that is antagonistic, to one that characterizes nature as being resilient when faced against harm and often victimized by people. Mary Oliver’s poem also titled “The Fish” offers a response to Bishop’s idea that people are harming nature, by providing another reason as to why people are harming nature, which is due to how people are unable to view nature as something that exists and goes beyond the purpose of serving human needs and offers a different interpretation of the relationship between man and nature. Oliver believes that nature serves as subsidence for humans, both physically and spiritually. Unlike Bishop who finds peace through understanding her role in nature’s plight and acceptance at the merging between the natural and human worlds, Oliver finds that through the literal act of consuming nature can she obtain a form of empowerment that allows her to become one with nature.
Napoleon Dynamite is one of the best movies portraying loneliness and nerds. It is the story of Napoleon in high school and his lonely adventures. All the main characters feel separated, misunderstood, and have nobody to relate to. Napoleon has no friends and lives in his own fantasy land. He is avoided by everybody. His brother seems to be mislead, wanting to be a cage fighter but staying home all the time hopelessly trying to find love and attention on the internet. Their grandmother is never there for them, though she lives her own life right beside them. They live next to a huge field, reinforcing their isolation. Practically every home in the film is
There are many similarities between the two Star Wars movies A New Hope and The Force Awakens. If the plot between each movie wasn’t very similar, Kylo Ren’s resemblance to a certain dark lord of the Sith isn’t a coincidence. There’s a criminal element that’s owed a debt by Han Solo and attempts to kill him after he screws up their arrangement. J.J. Abrams made these films so similar because of various reasons; Considering the fact that you would have to watch all of the films in order to even acknowledge the similarities between the films, but to generate a healthy revenue. Which leads me on to my next point, If more money is generated from each film, the more technological advances are made in each film. (considering the various time spans
In conclusion, details involving the characters and symbolic meanings to objects are the factors that make the novel better than the movie. Leaving out aspects of the novel limits the viewer’s appreciation for the story. One may favor the film over the novel or vice versa, but that person will not overlook the intense work that went into the making of both. The film and novel have their similarities and differences, but both effectively communicate their meaning to the public.
Alan Moore is a renowned writer. He uses the morality of his many characters to express flaws in humanity. Two of his greatest hits Watchmen and V for Vendetta, face moral dilemmas, two characters face the delima of either being ‘Heroes’ or ‘Terrorists’. Ozymandius is the world’s smartest man, he plans the destruction of millions for societies own good, V is a freedom fighter who is using excess force to bring down the corrupt government.
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 the same expectations as four, five, and six, yet have the same flare as one, two, and three to meet the needs of the younger Star Wars fans.
These messages continue to inspire new generations, especially with the new Star Wars movies that are currently being made. When The Force Awakens premiered, it provided the important themes and messages found in the original trilogy. For example, Finn rejecting the Empire and joining the rebel alliance reflects Luke’s choice to join the Light side, despite being Darth Vader’s son. Both choices demonstrate hope and one’s ability to choose their own path. Furthermore, the self-sacrifice Luke makes in A New Hope by endangering himself to destroy the Death Star parallels Rey’s sacrifice
The movie starts out with Princess Leia getting caught aboard the Death Star. She is captured by Darth Vader and interrogated for information about the location of the Rebel Base. In the meantime R2-D2 and C-3PO escape without being captured while withholding vital information that must be brought to Obi-Wan Kenobi. They travel on a ship landing in the desert land of Tatooine and soon end up in the hands of Luke Skywalker. Luke sees the message from Princess Leia that R2-D2 withheld and is then determined to help her. Soon after R2-D2 runs away from Luke. Consequently, along with C-3P0 Luke searches for the droid. When they find him, Uncle Ben makes a surprise appearance and takes Luke along with the droids to his home. There, Ben tells Luke about his father and
George Lucas wrote and directed Star Wars, he had tons of creative and production control just like Hitchcock. Furthermore, the film demonstrates his aesthetic vision through recurring themes of good verse evil, heroes fighting for good and saving the day. Lastly, the film demonstrates thematic and stylistic consistencies to create the meaningful narrative. One thing that stands out from Star Wars that illustrates George Lucas’ control over the production is the credits. He did not want the credits at the beginning of the film so the audience can focus on the narrative. In the late 1950’s the auteur theory was introduced to filmmaking which created a new way of making films. Auteur theory went against the classical narrative by focusing on realism. Auteur films had ambiguous endings, which deeper into the character’s physiological state. Even though, Star Wars demonstrates certain auteur elements, it does not go against the classical narrative. To conclude, Star Wars mixed classical Hollywood techniques with the auteur theory that lead to a different and unique way of making a
