FAR, FAR AWAY…., in a very far galaxy raging a star wars between the
Republic warrior fighting the power of the dark force. The warrior
is led by Princess Lela Organa and her twin brother, Luke Skywalker,
and the whiz outer space Han Solo with co-pilot Chewbacca the
Millennium Falcon airplane with a formidable speed as their
transportation plus two smart robots, C-3PO and R2D2 who knows
everything except fighting.
The kang-ouw (silat’s world) story that took the setting of the
outer space is designed by George Lucas into a trilogy (nine film).
Uniquely it was started from Episode IV: A New Hope (1977), Episode
V: The Empire Strikes Back (1980), and Episode VI: Return of the
Jedi (1983). Several years after it, the prequel’s Episode I: The
Phantom Menace (1999), Episode II: Attack of the Clones (2002), and
Episode III: Revenge of the Sith (2005). Then exactly one decade
after it, Episode VII, as the start of the three film of the Great
Trilogy.
The directing moved from Lucas (72) to J.J. Abrams (50) who was
successful to direct Mission:Impossible III (2006) and Star Trek
(2009). Abrams already started to work together with Lawrence Kasdan
to write the scenario of Episode V and VI. The music is still
composed by the legendary composer John Williams.
The main stars on it second Trilogy is Harrison Ford (who’s paid the
highest, USD 20 millions), Carrie Fisher, and Mark Hamill, played
again Peter Mayhew (as Chewbacca) and Anthony Daniels, the C-3PO
robot. The main characters are played by new young actors with the
payment of around hundreds of thousand dollars (but it is sure will
go up soon!); John Boyega, Daisy Ridley, Adam Driver, and Oscar
Isaac.
Took place thirty years after the winning of the Republic at the end
of Episode VI.
It is told that that the dry planet of Jakku lives Rey, a scavenger
girl who finds the BB-8 robot. Inside this robot is kept a secret
map where Luke Skywalker living in meditation.
At first BB-8 is taken by pilot Poe Dameron but the attack from the
army of Stormtrooper First Order tear it down.
Precisely a member of Stormtrooper, Finn, an orphan who doesn’t
really know where he comes from, converted to side with Poe and Rey.
Suddenly they meet Han Solo and Chewie who is tracking Falcon’s
plane. Solo is still with his costume, just with gray hair, even
though after his marriage with Leila, his status has raised to the
level of a Prince.
Besides looking for Luke who’s long gone, Solo also is carrying the
request Leila asked him, to disenchant their son, Ben, who is
actually Kylo Ren, the successor of his grandfather, Darth vader!
Disney has already bought this creation of Lucas since October 2013,
so there will be more to come such as Rogue One: A Star Wars Story
(2016) and Star Wars Anthology: Han Solo (2018).
The budget for the making of Episode VII is set around USD 200
millions, but just in two weeks it already produced $ 1,7 Billion
(still growing), and almost beats The Most Demanded Film 1st place,
Avatar ($ 2,788 B) and 2nd place, Titanic ($ 2,186 B).
It’s sequel, Episode VIII is planned to be realesed at the end of
2017, and its Last Episode on 2019. Hope that we can see it all
because just at the end of the sequel we will see the true message
of this wonderful film. May the Force be with us! *** YaWi
