Star Wars

Star Wars

        Star Wars is not just a movie, it’s a series, in fact. There are multiple episodes to the story line of Stars Wars, but one in particular is the one I will be referring to. Star Wars Phantom of the Menace is the start to the journey of the Star Wars movie series.

        The film synopsis of this episode introduces Obi-Wan Kenobi, who is a Young Jedi, under the training of  Qui-Gon Jinn, a heroic jedi master that is a well respected character in the movie. The movie also shows a nine year old boy by the name of Anakin Skywalker, who is very talented at pod racing, which is a battle between the characters who fly spaceships and compete for first place. The matches can become very horrific and can even sometimes lead to death. Anakin Skywalker plays a main part in the story because later on in the series, Anakin becomes a father to his son, Luke Skywalker. However, Luke grows up not knowing who his father is, and he does not know that his father has went to the dark side and became Darth Vader. Later on in the movie of Star Wars Phantom of the Menace, the evil trade federation cuts off all trade routes to the planet of Naboo, then Qui-Gon and Obi-Wan are assigned to go settle the matter.
