I compared this passage from Star Wars to a scene from The Alchemist. These dialogues are very alike in both characters‚ and conversation topics.

Obi-Wan says‚ “...come away with me‚ and go to Alderaan” [II‚ II‚ Line 120] to Luke in Star Wars‚ and in The Alchemist‚ the Alchemist similarly states “I am going to

At first it seems simple; there would just be no more movies with lightsaber wielding Jedi or Yoda saying “May the Force be with you.” In reality a lot more might be different than you would initially think because Star Wars has shaped the movie industry that we see today in various ways. Specifically it had a huge economic impact not only on how movies are made today but also in the market. After Star Wars came out in the seventies there was a boom in

Bradley Davis 1/17/2013 Star Wars: ROTJ The book Star Wars: Return of the Jedi was the novelization of the movie series Star Wars. It was written by James Kahn and offered little difference but a bit more insight. There were more vivid explanations of some of the events and a tiny bit more of character portrayal. The book was written around the same time as the movies release but the story concept had some parallels with the Cold War as it was written in that era. The story
