Han Solo Essays

George Lucas created Han Solo in the 1970's. In the original script of Star Wars, Han was supposed to be a monster rather than a pirate smuggler. Harrison Ford won the role of Solo, and he appeared in films IV-VII. Han wasn't the leading role of Star Wars, but he played a significant part, enough to show his heroism. Han was a loner, and he was always with his best friend and sidekick Chewbacca an eight-foot tall Wookie. Han was traveling the galaxy barely scraping by. He had a lot of debts that

Star Wars is a poor epic because its supernatural elements are unconvincing and mundane. In the beginning, lightsabers are talked about quite a few times as Obi-Wan Kenobi tries explaining them to Luke. Despite all the talk, they only use the weapon in battle once. The entire story leads up to the lightsaber fight between Darth Vader and Obi-Wan Kenobi and the viewers are left unsatisfied and in contempt after this battle. Instead the story focuses mainly on aircraft even though the lightsaber is

mentioned previously, a classic anti-hero does not necessarily do things for good, but rather for themselves. Hans Solo is clearly driven by wealth, and would only do things if he were getting paid. This is similar to McMurphy when he gambles with the other patients in the ward, because he knows that he will win the bet, and ends up taking money and cigarettes from the patients. Hans Solo liked to be in charge, to be the leader, and to be in control of situations, much like McMurphy. McMurphy tried

Sleep. It’s such an incredibly fleeting thing to Han Solo. However many hours of rest does he get to have on a daily basis simply stands as an unknown number. Four hours? Three hours? Six hours? Six hours on his best day, eight hours meant he’s on vacation, and four hours or less meant he has a certain task at hand. In this moment, as he lays face down with his pillow pressed over his head, Han holds no recollection of ever having taken up a new adventure. So far, the mental tally furiously

There have been hundreds of young actors trying out for the coveted role of Han Solo in the Star Wars standalone film that is set for release in 2018, but there have been no confirmations as to which of Hollywood’s finest have actually auditioned for the part. Now Fantastic 4 star Miles Teller has just admitted that he did try his luck with the Solo flick, and he also revealed that he had never seen Harrison Ford in the original Star Wars films before his audition! Teller was recently a guest on

Although much of Star Wars relies on conflict between opposing forces, one of the most interesting conflicts happens between Han Solo and himself. This character has an almost constant internal battle between what is right and what is easy. This character has preferred to remain on his own- as his last name suggests- for most of his time throughout the film. He continually wanted to leave once he and Chewbacca delivered Luke and his other companions to the Death Star, as well as once Princess Leia

In order to arrive at a conclusion to see if the “Star Wars’ Han Solo Spinoff: Lord & Miller Fired After Clashing With Kathleen Kennedy” article by Brent Lang is trustworthy, I will examine it with a critical eye through Rosenstiel’s “six questions”. The article discusses how the pair was hired to direct the Han Solo spinoff movie. However, the article details that in June 2017, it was announced the directors would be leaving the production of the movie. Lang, a senior film, and media editor believed

always looking for answers about who they are. But not all, like Han Solo. In the Han Solo Trilogy by A. C. Crispin, Han Solo shows a perfect example about mankind’s search for self-identity: The quest of finding yourself, asking who am I? But Han Solo shows who he is, by living his life, not by dwelling on the many unanswered questions. Unlike Hamlet, the story by Shakespeare. These two might be complete opposites. Han Solo, like mine a fan favorite of many. I have always been curious about

Jacob, his other friend from geometry, walked up and said, “H-hey man g-gooood to see ya here man” as he stretched a red solo cup towards Kyle, “Ya want some?” Kyle quickly declined and walked over to the corner of the room to figure out how to solve this problem. He thought of his mother, Mary, who had always told him to stay true to his beliefs and never to do anything

Legalism is a fascinating philosophical and political system that has its roots in ancient China. Its emergence during the Warring States period and its popularization by the philosopher Han Feizi have made it a topic of interest and study for centuries. Legalism is a system that places a great emphasis on strict adherence to laws and regulations. This belief is rooted in the idea that humans are naturally selfish and that the only way to maintain order and prevent chaos is through the imposition

The Chinese zodiac proves to be one of the most significant components in Chinese culture. Ever since the Han dynasty up until now, the Chinese zodiac never fails to influence the lifestyle of the people. From careers, up to marriages, the zodiac judges it all. The characteristics and symbols endowed by a zodiac sign is then used to judge what career the person born on that sign must take; or even the most suitable partner for that person. For instance, if the job requires someone who is intellectual

2.2.2 Analysis of Chinese stereotypes It is usually hard to avoid stereotypes in any representation of China or Chinese people in Western film. As argued in Part 1 of this thesis, stereotype is necessary in representation of the “Other” because we need ordered, fixed and simplified information for things we are not familiar with; we want to exclude things that are different to free ourselves from anxiety; it is always inequalities of power behind stereotypes. In Marco Polo themed films, there are

In Katherine Mansfield’s “Miss Brill”, the protagonist isn’t just a woman who is a bit antisocial, but is actually a high functioning autistic person. The three main symptoms of this form of autism are; “social-interaction difficulties, communication challenges, and a tendency to engage in repetitive behaviors”. Throughout the story Miss Brill exhibits each of these symptoms multiple times, and when she is presented with a chance to communicate with anyone. She is swayed by her disorder, and her
