I watched Star Wars for the very first time last night…
and I really enjoyed Episode IV: A New Hope! The sets were very imaginative and I see so many similarities with Star Trek and Lord of the Rings characters. In all, a fun space adventure that’s rightfully called a classic.

I guess I can officially say that I’ve become a Star Wars fan! In order my fav films (1-6) are:
Empire Strikes Back
A New Hope
Return of the Jedi
Revenge of the Sith
The Phantom Menace
Attack of the Clones
Now I am diving into the canon, the storylines and the characters full throttle. The first film “A New Hope” is a stand alone classic, while “Empire Strikes Back” was my favorite out of the original trilogy and six original films. “Return of the Jedi was good but I did want more towards the end; however the Darth Vadar scenes and the Ewoks were my favorite bits. Definitely I definitely see why they all became a worldwide sensation. The prequels were good, but I would say my biggest issue was too much CGI and the casting of Padme was a little off (she seemed to mature). “The Phantom Menace” was very enjoyable, especially the costumes, storytelling and Jinn and young Anakin’s friendship. “The Clones Wars” was my least favorite because of the overbearing CGI and too many battle droid scenes. Out of them all, “Revenge of the Sith” ended the most saddest way for obvious reasons but I truly thought Hayden Christiansen did a good job with becoming Darth Vadar. A story of how easily one can become corrupted by evil and ultimate power.
While I was watching I saw so many similarities between Star Wars and Star Trek and the Lord of the Rings trilogy. Truly Star Wars influenced so much of what we have today in regards to film, cgi and science fiction in general. I’m really glad that I finally…finally watched these films.
MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU!
