For better or worse, it's not bad to explain any of it star Wars& # 39; recent major projects – boxing, saga climax, The wake of the Skywalker; and in the broadcast, the culmination of years of effort to deliver live action star Wars on the small screen, Counterfeit-Principles that are deeply involved in the service of followers. But what distinguishes their use makes it some interesting similarities and comparisons.
The wake of the SkywalkerGreat power, and the greatest of all a source of frustration, its awareness of the constant and wonderful fact that it's intended – precisely, how it is presented it's open it leaves many arcs that tell their own – the end of the Skywalker Saga, and star Wars as we know it for sure. To pay its own cost, it puts in this awareness as much exposure to the screen as possible, as it tries to cope with the over-40s years of storytelling. Aside from giving us a conclusion on the issues of the trilogy protagonists working on the sequel, it will mean farewell to Han Solo, Luke Skywalker, and Princess Leia; it should end this renewed war of the Empire vs Rebellion in the form of the First Order and Resistance; and should direct and reach eight, depending on the divisions of the movies that came before it.
It does this by discussing the knowledge of the past. After Emperor Palpatine! Our heroes are running around and Tantive IV and! Kylo Ren has literally revamped his Vader-esque mask to contribute again! Here's Lando! Here is Luke lifting the X-Wing he couldn't lift The Empire Strikes Back! Here is Lea, backstage his youthful days and learning how to become Jedi people has been very controversial ever since The Last Jedi who has the courage to confess he could use the Force! Here are many the atmosphere knows–More! Here's Tatooine! Here are some Ewoks!
This is normal it really is for sale
"Go on, last time, because of the old time," The wake of the Skywalker says as it hits the brain's center of happiness with every X-Wing and Star Destroyer and just 5-second looksWedge-Goddamn-Antilles it can bring carry. It's like star Wars& # 39; Fun, they play like kids. It is a movie that is almost childlike and admits to throwing together the statistics of its actions in such a way that, even in the worst suffered by its forgiveness, it is nothing if not the least infectious.
There is a lovely aspect to its fan service, this recognition of all the little things that make this privilege so good, so bad, and of course, too much with stupidity, even if we accept it too hard, we find ourselves in trouble and can hardly breathe. So even if there are things you don't like about it – and there it is plenty by locations there rebuke the movie as crazy as The wake of the Skywalker-There should be a small thing where, between the laser swords and the big explosion, that lets you go " it was it's fun. ”
Counterfeit it may not be in a state of confusion, but it would be hard to deny that a commitment to fan service is not as serious as The wake of the SkywalkerS. So what is it Counterfeit—To show what other people have done shout to the thunder on my way back to the Mos Eisley Cantina and some sand – making its nesttothe fans approached so recyesyou are made in a way The wake of the SkywalkerThat right? If anything, it's a question of scale. If anything Get upThe intersection of equality with equal parts is astonishing that its figures are so beautiful – that they shape our understanding me star Wars it is, which is a completely Skywalker Saga, in galactic proportions — and then there is a preparation to recapture what came first and foremost to find a way to set the future. In turn, CounterfeitIntimacy is one of the greatest strengths.
For us as an audience, Baby Yoda's presence is there a great event for we know not only one of its creatures like that of the species, but of Din Djarin and others CounterfeitHeroes and villains? C.hild just say: baby. Who you are and where you come from and there are problems, but they worry them because they want to see C.hild protected from injury (or, in the case of Werner Herzog, a State Assault). The motive for CounterfeitThis season is not about completing Baby Yoda's Wookieepedia page, it's coming to Din to take care of his new ward and how it transforms him into a wonderful man and hunter.
Another way to get closer Counterfeit It also plays into the simple fact that normal downloads come mainly from features of star Wars that fans are so great – not only diehards, but ordinary people who go out to see movies and experience them through their involvement with the galaxy far, far away – are now well aware. Always star Wars fan knows who Emperor Palpatine is. In compare, how many knows that Moff Gideon is slapped in the face Darkaber In the final minutes of the season is a big deal like what?
There is freedom, given what Counterfeit it plays as it completes its chase world and beautiful hunters, pulling in the esoteric ephemera of this atmosphere. That freedom, too, means that a it's a real death star Wars fan and a person who is less confident can share a glimpse into what the show is doing, without being put down by making an impression all these indicators feeling compelled.
But it's also important to think about how CounterfeitFan service is wrapped with a photo of star Wars, instead of specific characters, and what is being done it does and that picture. The Rockaber is a popular item if you are a fan Clone Wars either The rebels, but for many more star Wars fans who are familiar with those shows, is just a good looking weapon it looks as a lamp. While Get up he is busy playing with the special characters of this world, from Luke Skywalker and the Jedi spirits, to Lando Calrissian and Widge Antilles, yes, to him great father Sheev he, CounterfeitThe letters,, at the lower levels, are a series of copies.
He got Din himself, who is he looks like Bba Fett , and, for the most part, they work just like him. You have a tthe Baby, who looks like Yoda but, clearly, no Yoda. You have an IG-11, which, in fact, is similar to the IG-88, is not the same thing to kill (much to the dismay of star Wars collectors of deeds, No doubt). It has released more of the original comparisons you have with characters such as Cara Dune – who has the rebellious images literally put on her face – andthe Client and Moff Gideon as supporters of this Galactic force that we have seen fighting for years. But they are in the middle of the rank and file and not involving them as fully as heroes and attackers like Leia Organa and Darth Vader can be.
Cruel Counterfeit doesn't just give this picture and say nothing more, that is, this consecutive meeting gives us new TIE Fighters, new X-Wings, new Stormtroopers, and more without really commenting on what the reunion means to "look", it's something you know and love, out it is different enough to inform you the value of a new action. ”It uses some similarities between these parts of the thumbnail image to say something interesting about our view of them. Din Djarin may look like Bba Fett and is therefore tied with a picture attached to the heads of that character, but deliberately presented as they are flawed and imperfect as if we pierced our understanding of that picture.
On the bright side, turning the threatening Taika Waiti threat, which kills a striker in a way that is more protective to the children of the vein is a turning point into something scary. Even Cara and the Client is a logical explanation for what we can get rid of the Rebel Alliance and the Galactic Empire to be more than "good guys" and "bad guys" – especially Cara, who suffers as a former soldier, and her bloody blood that caused that initial sadness, is not known who can be pure-hearted collaborators .
Both ways of working fandom have flaws and strengths. On the contrary, that star Wars at the box office allows itself to please consumers unhappily using all of its toys for a few hours is what allows tangible goods elsewhere – either Counterfeit or the many books, games, comics, and other shows that make up its catalog – taking a limited and creative approach to the world, starting with describing the wide-ranging drawings that movies make.
It is not good if one is better than another, another war to be fought between different followers. Instead, it's about seeing them work in tandem to create a galaxy far, far away to be found written and varied, celebrating what we love most about this world while remaining so to install new materials and new ideas in it.
