Yoda puppet version
|
We all thought Yoda to be a wise little Jedi that sat in a seat in the council. But the real question is, how did he become that fighting master that he is today? The answer lies with the creators of STAR WARS.
When Episode five came out, Gerorge Lucas wanted to make a charector that Luke Luke Skywalker can learn Jedi training from after the tragic death of Ben Kenobie.
He then made the charector called "Yoda". This charector would be the heart of Star Wars forever. They thought he should be an unknown alien species.
At first, they made him into a puppet for episodes 5 and 6. By the time George decided to make another 3 movies, he wanted to make Yoda duel with his lightsaber once or twice.
Then, George and the crew ran into a problem. Yoda could not fight if he was a puppet. So they decided to make him animated. By the time episode episode 1 went into opperation, they decided to wait a few more movies until they animate Yoda because they didn'y have enough time to animate him before the movie hit theators.

The much publicized upcoming Cinemax Star Wars marathon got me thinking about the optimal viewing order for the Star Wars saga. The logical approach is to view the movies in episodic order (which is how Cinemax plans to air it). But I'm not so certain that this is the best way to watch Star Wars.
What follows is a rundown on the only four *viable* ways to view the Star Wars saga that I can think of. Sure there are other viewing orders, but these are the only ones that make sense from the standpoint of storytelling and continuity.
Here goes:
Method 1: By Order of Episode
This approach is clearly the viewing order intended by George Lucas. Quite simply, you watch the movies by episode number starting from Episode I: The Phantom Menace and Finishing with Episode VI: Return of the Jedi.
Why it works: This approach provides a strong high-level story arc centered on the rise, fall and redemption of Darth Vader. You essentially move chronologically through his life from childhood all the way to his death and final redemption by his children. You also...

Come see Carrie Fisher perform live at Arena Stage in Washington, DC !
Wishful Drinking
created and performed by Carrie Fisher
September 5 through 28, 2008
http://www.arenastage.org/season/08-09/wishful-drinking/
Carrie Fisher is the life of the party in this uproarious and sobering look at her Hollywood hangover. The daughter of Eddie Fisher and Debbie Reynolds, Carrier Fisher became a cultural icon when she stared as Princess Leia in the first Star Wars trilogy at 19 years olds. Forever changed, Carrie’s life did not stay picture perfect. A demanding career and single motherhood followed, as well as her struggle with addiction. It’s an incredible tale filled with self-deprecating humor about having Elizabeth Taylor as a step-mother, marrying (and divorcing) Paul Simon, and losing her daughter’s father to another man. Fisher tells a true and intoxicating story with the strong wry wit that she poured into bestsellers like Postcard from the Edge. Get “Carried” away with this hilarious insider’s look at life in Hollywood.
