Star Wars Movies and Episodes


Right now we have 7 Star Wars movies and for me they are all excellent movies with genius ideas in them. I image how George Lucas mind would be after all these movies, his creative thought just exploded when he made these movies. But enough of erasing George Lucas mind, lets talk about Star Wars. These movies are used of a futuristic past where instead of God people believe in the Force. We hear the Force in all of these movies, we see the good side of its and then we see the bad side of it. We even see how a young Jedi falls into the dark side of the Force. These movies stared with Episode 4 to 6 and then stared Episode 1-3. In the first episodes 4 to 6 we see a young Jedi who struggles to know who he is. He then encounters an old Jedi who will train him to become a new hope for the Jedi. He makes friends in the way, kisses his sister and then fights his evil father who then regrets his evil actions and has a few moments to see his son so he can die in peace. The other episodes that go from 1 to 3 show us the beginning of another Jedi that is the antagonist in the other movies. We see how he transforms into one of the best Jedi's and then falls to the Dark side. 

A few months back in the moth of December in 2016, we saw the release of Episode 7, it was a hit in all the nations world wide because of the new special effects, new characters and new enemies. We see the return of Han Solo and Chewy with General Leia, we se the Millennium Falcon and then we get a little glimpse of old Luke at the end. it was great movie and I really enjoyed it. I think that it had more good reviews than bad ones. I really recommend these movies if your a person who like sic-fi action and adventure. If you like these 3 things, these are the movies for you.

"Zathura"


Last week we finished the movie Zathura which is a with a large amount of messages  pointing towards families. The story begins with to brothers playing with their divorced father but they are taking turns. They start fighting when the little brother starts playing but gets interrupted by his old brother. They both fight for everything especially when they both want to spend time with their father. The problem is that they fight for everything, they fight if they want to do something different, they fight if they don't get what they want, they fight for attention. I have experience with this problem because I have an older sister. She is now in college and I don't see her very often but we talk and laugh about or fights in the past. We used to fight about almost everything, just like this two brothers. We would fight about who would get the dog poop that we had to clean up after. I remember fighting in food places, she would try and take a bite from my food and I would get mad and get a bite from her food. We where so childish but now we understand that siblings need to stay together and fight together. But you know what, fighting between siblings is perfectly normal. I have never heard o any siblings saying that they never fought because thats impossible. Its like a fight for dominance in the world. At first my sister was the one who dominated but now I think Im catching up to her. 

Another thing that caught my eye in this movie is that their parents are divorced. Now, my parents are divorced two and I don't really want to compare them beaches its a really personal problem. But I can agree with the two brothers in Zathura when it comes two sadness and anger. At first I didn't really know nothing about divorce because I was little, but if you ask my sister, for her its was one of the saddest days of her life. Eventually my dad found another woman and they got married. That really angerd my sister because it feel like your dad forgot about your mother. My sister really went through some emotion in that period and I now understand it. Having divorced parents its the worst because you feel like they don't care for you anymore, but the do. You just have too accept it and move one. My sister still has some problems with my dad but know she has a little bother that can help her when she falls. Thats what siblings are for, to lift you up when nobody else can. 

Always stick together because if you don't, nobody will be there to put you back in your life.
