It's all arranged by fate

It took almost two months to finally watch the "Attack of the Clones" in the Star Wars series in the middle of the night. Although this is the second chapter in the official order, it is actually the fifth in the order of shooting. Entering the new century, Industrial Light & Magic, founded for the special effects of Star Wars, has long become a benchmark for special effects production. The level of special effects of the film has also improved compared with the previous one. The picture effects are also very natural and beautiful. The picture of the planet Nabu is especially Beautiful, the scene of Anakin and Amidala being in love on the grass and the water is really beautiful. Several fighting scenes in the film are also very compact and exciting.

I feel that Obi-Wan is really not a good teacher at this time. His master, Jin Kuigang, died before he was fully mature. He was not able to give him more guidance, so he still seemed a little dull and not very good. Guide Anakin, let Anakin, who is less mature and richer in thoughts and emotions, go astray.

As a large series, I feel that Anakin is the core protagonist of the prequel trilogy, telling the story of his growth, becoming stronger, falling in love and falling into the dark, accompanied by another plot line of the Sith the Great’s conspiracy. This second part is a bit of a link between the past and the next. Anakin's growth, love, and the beginning of the dark development of his heart are all in this part. However, I feel that the plot processing in this one is relatively weak, not as good as the previous one. Such a playful process seems very broken and far-fetched. The love between Anakin and the Queen came a little bit abruptly. Although they got along and looked at them in the last part, I felt something will happen to them, but suddenly in this part, after so many years of separation, there will be enthusiasm when they meet again. The love is still a bit abrupt. However, although knowing that this relationship was also one of the fuse that laid the fuse for his later degeneration, it was Anakin's destiny unavoidable, but I felt that it could be better handled.

In addition, although the death of Anakin's mother was an accident, it was actually a tragic fate that was buried when he and his mother were separated. He wanted to change something to save his mother, but he wanted to become a Jedi and abandon Xiao Ai. The mission separated him from his love songs. Although he chose to pursue his own emotions in the end, he still couldn't escape the fate of the Jedi Knights not getting the little emotions of ordinary people.

Said it is destiny, in fact, it is more or less inseparable from the tangible hand of oneself or others. In this part, the Star Federation and the Jedi Council have become rigid and bureaucratic, but there is no more under the old system. Changes and improvements were eventually destroyed by people with ulterior motives. The degeneration of the individual and the federation is also affected by the causes and consequences of fate.

Let’s talk about the Jedi guidelines at this time. Taking into account the overall situation and not seeking self-interest is the most basic principle of the Jedi. If one’s will expands, the force will inevitably change, and it is an indisputable fact that it is easy to lead to the dark side of the force. Anakin is a distraction. Too much, the burden can't be put down, the heart can't be calmed, and finally the will completely collapses.

To be a Jedi Knight is a long time from selection to training. The mission they are given and the things they must undertake cannot be avoided. It is not what ordinary people can do to become a man. The Jedi Master is even more of a supreme honor. And the child is so small that it can only be called it, and he cannot determine whether his life is like an ascetic, cannot possess the emotions and desires of human beings, be deprived of everything, and demand selfless love, which is obviously deprived.

In fact, Anakin is an ordinary person. He has everything that ordinary people yearn for, but his destiny is destined to become a Jedi Knight. This contradiction in destiny will inevitably give rise to such a tragic life struggling in a black and white world. body. And Anakin is clearly a victim of this inhumane system. After he had clearly realized his desires and emotions, he was taken away to receive inhumane training. Many of us will basically make the same choice as Anakin, but not everyone can become a Jedi. Sacrifice is a noble act, but personal emotions and personal will can never be separated from the category of selfish desire. These are two realms, and these are two types of people.

The Jedi at this time, like the Republic, is destined to become a kind of sadness, often with seemingly noble decisions, but in fact it is a Jedi that abandons ordinary humanity. Such a Jedi warrior and the Jedi Council actually planted the seeds of their own destiny.
