Star Wars Then and Now
I was hopeful that Disney, a company known for making bright and hopeful movies, would do well with Star Wars when they bought it. Until they broke up one of the greatest romances in film history, downgraded Leia from President of the galaxy to a general, and replaced Han and Leia’s three children with a darkside brat wearing the name of Luke’s son. Until they turned Luke Skywalker into a bitter old hermit who gave up on the galaxy. Now the new Clone Wars shows us a Jedi Order failing nearly as badly as the Republic, and I realize something. We don’t see enough snarky and hopeful people wise cracking as they fight the bad guys now. I can’t find the hope and brightness that Star Wars was built on now. I do not like this new Star Wars of now.
