Movies and dramas are some of the artistic innovations of the human beings. They remind us of the traditional beliefs, customs and the way of life. TV dramas, for instance, are one way of teaching people about their past using an entertaining approach where characters take different roles symbolically to pass a message to the audience. Movies however, make scenes vivid and emotional as they bring a clear picture of what happened using moving images. That said, movies make it easy for one to remember, especially on parts that they find interesting or scarring.

I used to watch movies just for entertainment, a good laugh, or the cute kissing scene. But lately I have started to see movies in a new perspective. Now I believe that movies are art, a form of expression. Movies should appeal to your emotions and make you think because every scene is carefully crafted for a reason. A movie that made me is Into the Wild; it is an adaptation of John Krakauer’s biography about Christopher McCandless.

In conclusion, The Gladiator is a memorable movie in my life because it allowed me to bond with my father and learn the emotional battles heroes face as they progress in life.

As long as I and my ilk keep spending money on them, someone will keep churning out ancillary Star Wars products targeted to our nostalgia. My brain knows all this, but my heart is still broken. When the Skywalker saga came to a close, so did, in a very real way, that last remnant of my childhood. Star Wars is so representative of my inner child, of my nerdiness, that when Luke faded away into the Force I truly felt like I had lost someone close to me, and the loss was profound. The fact that The Last Jedi’s incredibly tragic end makes it so uniquely, horrifyingly perfect for 2017 makes it even more powerfully depressing to

George Lucas' Star Wars has been an "unprecedented commercial success in the history of cinema and has made a huge cultural impact" (Feichtinger 28). It is a popular franchise and is widely known all over the world. Star Wars plays a major role in influencing the youth and sending a message to everyone, especially the fans. George Lucas said that he wanted to do more than entertain the masses; he wanted to "introduce young Americans to spiritual teachings through 'new myths' for our globalized, pluralistic millennium" (Burke). These spiritual teachings and motifs are seen throughout the Star Wars movies and they "promote values and worldviews", which are adopted from Buddhism (Feichtinger 34).

Throughout my years of watching movies there were plenty that grasped my attention and really left an impact on me when I younger. One of the first movies that I watched was the Star Wars trilogy. The first time I watched this movie I thought how cool the lightsabers were and how angry I was at Darth Vader at the time for killing Obi Wan Kenobi. After watching the original trilogy of The New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi I was super excited to find out that there were more Star Wars movies for me to enjoy. Then, I actually watched them to find out that the three other movies in the series were boring and focused more on the politics of Star Wars instead of all of the stuff that made Star Wars interesting to watch.
