The Myth and the Magic...of the Star Wars Saga..has fueled and inspired popular culture for the past 30 years. The magic of Star Wars experience is that you can project yourself into the movie as any character and come away with different experience everytime. For a time you lose yourself in one of the 6 movies, or countless EU books, or videogames.. You become something more than yourself..You are part of a community where Jedi and droids are heroes..
With the release of the prequels.. Darth Vader.. the most mysterious of villians is given a human face, a family and roots.. The Emperor has a face, family and history..
Boba Fett is another mysterious figure.. who people are trying to give a face and a background. I love Darth Maul, Jango, and Grievious..the ultimate bad guys.. Do I need to know their mother's didn't raise them right?
Does giving concrete stories to characters ruin or demystify the Star Wars Saga/ Universe?
I love the stories about Darth Vader, Anakin, and Obi Wan....
Are we ready for the truth about Luke, Leia, Obi Wan, and Darth Vader in the coming years? or a TV series about Han and Boba Fett and young Luke and Leia..? Will that ruin the original Saga?
Thanks,
