Both Paprika and Inception are the kind of films telling the relationship between reality and dreams. Also, Kon Satoshi and Christopher Nolan are both well-known directors with a large number of fans. However, Paprika was produced four years earlier than Inception, which, in my opinion, also has the content with deeper and more complex thought. Inception is mainly about the demons story of the character which was played by Leonardo DiCaprio. It is a really simple and clear film that can be…

Have you ever heard of Star Wars? You probably have. It’s “a space opera film series (created by George Lucas) that became one of the most successful and influential franchises in motion picture history.” Starting in the late 20th century, and brought back at the turn of the 21st century, the Star Wars films continually advanced the field of special effects, and developed into a massive merchandising industry. Lucas’s success as director and writer with his previous films got him the support of…

The book Star Wars: Thrawn by Timothy Zahn is a well written book about Thrawn and Eli Vanto, two soldiers in the Imperial Navy. It is a canonized twist on the story of a popular character, Grand Admiral Thrawn, in the Star Wars fan base after Disney bought Star Wars from Lucasfilm. (In this case, canon means what did or didn’t happen in Disney’s Star Wars universe, not Lucasfilm’s.) Eli Vanto wanted to be a supply officer in the Imperial Navy, but on an assignment to a backwater planet, his…

Temple of The Jedi Order as a Religious Cult Colorful lightsabers and old Yoda may be among the first things one thinks of when they hear about the Temple of the Jedi Order. To the members of the First International Church of Jediism, however, the Temple holds much more importance and its teachings are far more serious than outsiders may imagine. Those both inside the church and outside the church may have doubts on whether the Jedi Order is a true religion or not. More importantly than if a…

The legacy of Star Wars still exists today partly because it was constructed by so many different philosophies and religions. The trilogy includes aspects of Taoism, Zen Buddhism, and even Christianity. Sometimes it is hard to find, but the teachings of Christ and the truth of the gospel are paralleled several times in the films in the morality of the Jedi and Luke Skywalker. With that, while the Force and Holy Spirit are alike, the Force is not the only small aspect of God in the films. Caleb…

I will be carefully studying a fifteen second teaser for the third trailer developed for the movie Star Wars: The Force Awakens. This film is set “a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away”. It has been thirty years in the Star Wars Universe since the conclusion of Star Wars Episode VI: Return of the Jedi and the galaxy has changed much in this thirty year time skip. The evil Galactic Empire has collapsed and its remnants have reformed to establish a successor organization called The First Order…

Enslaved or Empowered Star Wars: The Return of the Jedi (1983) is part of an iconic franchise and includes the infamous slave Leia. When Leia Organa (Carrie Fisher) is captured by Jabba the Hutt she is forced to wear a metal bikini while chained to Jabba himself. Earlier this year Disney was rumored to be taking the slave Leia merchandise off store shelves. This could be due to the sexually revealing nature of the outfit which contradicts Disney’s more family friendly orientation. However, many…

Rey Kenobi Theory In the recent film, Star Wars: The Force Awakens, many have surmised that the protagonist Rey, is Luke Skywalker’s daughter. In this essay, I will argue that Rey is not his daughter, but is in fact Obi-Wan Kenobi’s granddaughter. The reasons supporting this theory are, Maz Kanata implying that Luke is not a part of her family tree, the aura Rey emits is more powerful than a Skywalker 's, thus leading to the theory that Obi-Wan is in fact, Rey 's grandfather. Rey is a 19 year…
