Star Wars is back

Star Wars Episode 3 should face two big challenges. Technically speaking, today's audience has been spoiled by gorgeous and realistic computer stunts. From this aspect, it is difficult to have any breakthrough that can impress the audience. Lucas himself is no longer at the age of surfing at the cutting edge of technology. In terms of plot, the end of the story was before the start of "Star Wars," which affected a whole generation more than 20 years ago. The first two prequels were also burdened with enough, and there was not much suspense about the story and the ending.

Lucas has successfully dealt with these two points. Instead of playing more fancy computer stunts, he picked up more of the physical models and lens magic pioneered by "Star Wars" in 1977, such as piecing together various models of vehicles and ships from old metal parts seized from the garbage dump. Brings the texture and realism beyond the reach of computer graphics. This is a smart approach. On the one hand, it avoids the emotional numbness caused by the excessive dazzling skills in the first two prequels. On the other hand, it reduces the visual contrast with the first Star Wars, so that you will not fall down when you go home from the movie theater and replay the following story on the disc player. Taste.

The most successful aspect of "Sith's Revenge" is its plot arrangement. From the laying of the first two prequels to the three old Star Wars "below", not only the stories are tightly connected and drip-proof, but also the interpretation is natural and reasonable. There is no over-explaining that makes a movie just a connection. Skywalker slipped from the young guardian of justice to the darkness, and walked to the climax of conflict in the struggle of the self and the self. Every step of this is reasonable and human. Lucas can successfully perform in the small plot under the extreme constraints of the overall situation of the story. This is a breakthrough in the six star wars.

The three "Star Wars" were released during the Cold War, and their success actually benefited from the insecurities deep in American psychology. So Reagan used it to name the arms puzzle that eventually dragged across the Soviet Union. The years when the two prequels were released lacked real-life comparability, so they became pure entertainment. Today's ultra-conservatism in the United States has once again caused uneasiness in the subconscious minds of people all over the world. This film tells the story of pushing democracy to autocracy in the name of justice, and it can naturally become the banner of all anti-Bush. Star Wars has practical significance again, this will be a successful return.

The failure of this film is that the two young protagonists are obviously unable to manage the high level of emotional conflict in the history of poetry. On the contrary, the performance of the anti-angle Sith is remarkable. However, Star Wars never cared about acting, such as Harrison Ford

. Maybe its target audience is not today's little boys, but their fathers. Lucas dazzled a whole generation of teenagers back then. Twenty-eight years later, he finally gave them an explanation.
