Star Wars Summary
A one minute summary of Star Wars on Star Wars day.
Not everyone has seen the Star Wars movies. If you have not, here is a very brief overview.
Think of a typical Western movie.
Good and Bad sides: think of the Lone Ranger vs Evil-doers.
Now put them on space ships instead of horses using blasters for 6-shooters.
Think of the towns they go to as planets. That is Star Wars.
The romance and human part is the same, but with the new props.
The main character is Luke Skywalker who using our Western analogy would be the lone Ranger. The sidekick would be his androids.
There are two main androids, shorted to droids in Star Wars. Here the story adds a little from the standard Western. Below is C-3PO.
Below is R2-D2.
You may have heard people say today 5/4 is Star Wars day and wondered why. A religion that is followed by the main character Luke Skywalker has a power called “the force.” Many times they say “May the force be with you.” and it did not take long for fans to realize that saying “May the 4th” is very close to “May the force.” so that is how May the 4th came to be known as Star Wars Day.
