I wonder how big their budget was for all the phosphorous.

Freud would have a lot to say about this battle.

Interesting that Vader has his own style ship. Easy identification?

by **Admin** Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:02 am

Bye bye Biggs. Failed hero.

by JackSwegDavey Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:02 am

Han Solo bails on them, and then comes back once everyone is dead and is viewed as a hero. Ok...

Return of the anti hero

by TristanP Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:04 am

Real heroes always escape just before the explosion.

by SeonaBeth Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:04 am

Solo is the Stephen Bradbury of heroes...?

by **Admin** Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:04 am

At least Luke didn't look back.

by SeonaBeth Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:05 am

Also, how does Vader survive? Can't have much fuel or oxygen on that little ship?

by Total_Travesty Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:05 am

obligatory star wars ceremony sequence

Magic suit.

So that tunnel bit is his journey to the underworld?

by TristanP Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:06 am

"Also, how does Vader survive? Can't have much fuel or oxygen on that little ship?"
Probably landed on the rebel planet, also space magic.

Music in this bit seems very wedding march-yr...

by SeonaBeth Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:07 am

Da, da, da-da-da daaa da, da-da-da daaa da da-da-da daaa.

Okay folks, stay here so we can talk about Folio B.

by SeonaBeth Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:08 am

I just know that I'm going to have the theme song stuck in my head all day...

by Total_Travesty Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:09 am

i have to dig up my papers

by JackSwegDavey Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:11 am

Oh. What's folio B?

by SeonaBeth Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:11 am

Oh Clare.I meant to tell you. I was talking to Morgan last night about what we were doing today, and was explaining which movie we were watching, and sadly, forgot Harrison ford's name. How embarrassment...

by **Admin** Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:11 am

So obviously for the full hero's journey we'll have to look at all 3 films. This film has a version of the journey, but the trilogy is where it's at.

Folio B is your version of the hero's journey - 500 words. You can craft any kind of hero and journey that you want to work with. If you're tempted to make your hero a female, just keep in mind that we will be looking at the heroine's journey soon - that doesn't mean you can't have a female hero (again, see p. 63 in resource book) but you will have an opportunity to explore a different process.

by JackSwegDavey Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:13 am

So, we just make up a story that follows the Hero's journey?

by **Admin** Wed Mar 05, 2014 7:13 am

Correct. Your own story, following Campbell's model.
