Jedi

Narwhals continue to dictate and control many of the ecosystems the inhabit. Narwhals have undergone an interesting history as they evolved from their Bohaskia monodontioides ancestor. They have a long horn that come out of their head. They are like the jedis of the sea. The life cycle of a narwhal starts out with it being born at 5 feet and with no horn/tooth or spots. For 20 months it stays by the mother. The adult narwhal is four meters long. The male adult weighs 1.6 tons while the females…

in space. Specifically it is a story focused around a man named Anakin Skywalker/Darth Vader. Anakin is part of a group called the Jedi Order. These Jedi have sworned to keep peace in these times of war. Jedi have the ability to harness an energy known as The Force. There are two sides to this Force. There is the light/good side and there is the dark/evil side. The Jedi who use the dark side are called Sith Lords. Anakin eventually turns to the dark side of The Force and becomes Darth Vader.…

lives would be vastly different. It’s hard to believe, but Star Wars has molded the way we view things. An example of this would be Jediism, an unlikely religion that sprouted up after the Return of the Jedi. In the U.K. census of 1991, 390,000 people wrote down “Jedi” as their religion. The Jedi are the ancient, lightsaber-wielding warriors of the Star Wars franchise, so it…

The Time I Saw Darth Vader Die :( Have you ever had your favorite character from any movie, or show, die? I have, it was Darth Vader. He died in the original movie 3:The Return of the Jedi. When I saw him die my eyes started watering, and my face turned red! I held my breath and acted like it was no big deal, but in the inside I was very sad. I was with my mom I was on the couch. He was so AWESOME!!! I still don't get why they killed off Darth Vader, George Lucas knew kids liked…

The plotlines and settings of The Iron Trial and Revan, when compared, couldn’t be further apart on the fictional spectrum, but the two main characters are a different story. On the surface, Revan and Callum don’t seem very alike in personality, but they share many important traits that serve as the basis of their motives. The biggest ailment the protagonists in both of the books suffer from is amnesia, though they have it for different reasons. This plays a huge part when it comes to defining…

involve obstacles and movement to new places. Both texts should definitely be continued to be studied in the unit of journeys for the following years. Luke’s imaginative journey takes him beyond the world of the moisture farm and to a world of the Jedi knights and adventure. In the dialogue “if theres a bright centre of the universe this is as far away from it”, it shows his contempt of where he is and his want to leave his life on the moisture farm. The use of the close up shot when the…

connected to the Force. One of the boys walked over to me, “I don’t like it.” “Neither do I.” Ryate had come to this planet with me, and though we had only met once before that, we had agreed to stand behind each other. We would need someone, the Jedi council had told us, because dark days would soon come. Hatred, despair, depression. Why would it not? I remember wondering every…

learning from the best Jedi knight and most noble in all the galaxy. Anakin's concept of what being a successful Jedi Knight clearly differs from what Obi Wan’s concept of being a great Jedi knight is. This concept difference is clear, but becomes even more and more pronounced as time goes on, Obi Wan’s idea of being a good Jedi is to promote justice throughout the galaxy, and Anakin’s is to become powerful. This concept split ultimately leads Anakin's Concepts about being a jedi to align more…

wife’s demise. In his attempt to save his wife and unborn children, “Skywalker betrayed the Jedi, pledging himself to his former confidant and friend...” (Wookieepedia) This soon came true, and it caused Anakin to be pushed further towards the dark side, literally. Furthermore, Anakin became extremely arrogant. He was convinced that nobody could match his skill because he was hailed as the “Chosen One of Jedi prophecy.” (Wookieepedia) This flaw led to his eventual downfall. He thought he could…

The Mise-en-scène within the film is extraordinary and everything is planned out to a tee. To begin with, the setting of the final battle perfectly sets the mood for the fight. Setting is important because it allows the viewer to view "important details" (Corrigan, White, 69) or to even "contrast across difference places" (Corrigan, White, 69) within the film. In the movie, the fight takes place in the second Death Star. An eerily lit maze of corridors and passageways that create an exhilarating…
