Star Wars Fanfiction - a Faraway World

The Star Wars galaxy may be far, far away, but the fanfiction it inspires exists within easy reach of those passionate enough to seek it out. When George Lucas and his collaborators created this expansive universe back in 1977, they just wanted to make a great space opera. They had no idea it would birth an entire franchise of TV shows, movies, comic runs, parodies…and Star Wars fanfiction.More importantly, nothing could prepare Lucas for the sheer level of enthusiasm that fans would build ar...

Star Wars Canon Just Revealed the Truth About Palpatine’s Cloning Scheme

Palpatine’s cloning conspiracies aren’t only about Baby Yoda and Order 66. Star Wars canon — via The Bad Batch Season 2 — has just revealed that the story of the Empire’s cloning programs is much bigger than whatever’s happening on The Mandalorian. Spoilers ahead for The Bad Batch, Season 2, Episode 11, "Metamorphosis." At some point before A New Hope, human stormtroopers completely replaced the Jango Fett clones created on Kamino. But the Empire didn’t abandon cloning and genetic manip...

Star Wars Just Improved Upon a Classic The Phantom Menace Moment

This Star Wars article contains spoilers for The Bad Batch. Clone Force 99 is back in action, and while we know season 2 of Dave Filoni’s Star Wars: The Bad Batch is building toward a unified adventure, the first crop of episodes has taken the anthology approach by splitting up our characters and sending them off on their own arcs. But on top of throwing new challenges at our heroes, The Bad Batch‘s latest episode, "Faster," also improves on an idea originally used in George Lucas’ most d...

This Fictional Universe Is Getting Way Too Diverse

"The ‘Star Wars’ franchise is sticking up for actor Moses Ingram after she revealed she had received hundreds of racist messages and comments on social media." — CNN, 5/31/22 - - - I just found out that one of the main characters in a new take on a popular sci-fi/fantasy franchise will be portrayed by a person of color, and I am losing my mind.

Star Wars - Hidden Details and References

The filmmakers behind the Star Wars films are just like the hardcore fans: they're movie nerds. The recent Disney+ shows like The Mandalorian, Book of Boba Fett and Kenobi have been jam-packed with references to classic Star Wars works, both the well-known and the obscure.But beyond that, the films are full of easter eggs that fans would never spot the first time they watched them. There are loads of references to other films in the Star Wars movies, plus some other random things that are thr...

Star Wars Movies Ranked from Worst to Best

Despite all the making-of books and documentaries, and the myth-making surrounding the creator of Star Wars, there’s no way George Lucas could have predicted the long-lasting effects his 1977 space adventure would have on pop culture. Sure, maybe he did write outlines for additional prequels and sequels while crafting the story of the original film, but he also had a lower-budget "Star Wars II" backup plan had A New Hope bombed at the box office in the summer of ’77. As we all know now, qu...

Films that inspired the original Star Wars

There is perhaps no other film series in the history of cinema that has had an effect on the industry as considerable as Star Wars, with the creation of the all-encompassing universe, involving merchandise, spin-offs and a continuing series of films now seen as the benchmark of successful mainstream filmmaking. Featuring bombastic action sequences, eccentric characters and a flurry of real-world excitement, much of the success of George Lucas’ series rubbed off on the remainder of 20th centur...

In Praise Of Movies That Just End (Because They Used To Know When To End)

Seven Samurai, Akira Kurosawa’s 1954 masterpiece (that I, embarrassingly, had not seen until recently) is just under three and a half hours long. But it doesn’t feel long. And this is something I’ve been noticing more and more over the last year and a half – to the point I’ve been having trouble getting back on the same wavelength with modern movies. Because older movies used to "just end." The plot would be over and the credits would roll. Now, a couple of things that need to be pointed ...

Why Structures Like The Hero’s Journey Don’t WorkSourceURL: https://mythcreants.com/blog/why-structures-like-the-heros-journey-dont-work/ Storytellers love structures like The Hero’s Journey, the 15 beats of Save the Cat, or just the traditional three acts that both The Hero’s Journey and Save the Cat are built around. But time and again I’ve seen writers follow them and get a complete mess as a result. The sad truth is that while these structures won’t ruin a good sto...
