So, I just watched Star Wars last night. I was absolutely blown away. There are so many questions in my mind. I also have a plethora of theories about what could come next. Beware of possible spoilers if you haven't seen the movie.
First, I'd like to break down some of the main characters in the movie. Luke is our young hero of the story. He starts to learn about a mysterious power called "the force". This mystical power is one of my favorite parts of the movie. I hope they never try to explain it in some sort of scientific way because the mystery of it makes the movie special. Luke finds another character named Obi-Wan Kenobi with the help of some droids. Obi-Wan knows a lot about "the force". Later, they meet a space cowboy named Han Solo. He has an animal-like friend named Chewbacca and a spaceship named the "Millennium Falcon". This guy named Greedo tries to shoot him, but Han doesn't get hit and shoots Greedo. It was a fairly inconsequential scene. There's a princess named Leia who needs saving. A man dressed in all black with a mask on is the villain. His name is Darth Vader and he uses the "dark side" of "the force". He is part of "the empire" which is an evil organization that wants to take over the galaxy.
Now that I've set the stage for the movie, I'd like to discuss some questions I have. Again, be mindful of spoilers. The rest of this article is littered with Star Wars spoilers. Here are a few of my questions I hope to get answered in the next movie: What was life like before the empire started? I almost feel like you could make a few incredible movies based entirely in that era. Let's all cross our fingers. Is the empire going to strike back? Star Wars ends on somewhat of a cliffhanger. How do you pronounce "Falcon"? Who will Princess Leia end up with? Luke and Leia kiss, but she seems a little too feisty for him. Maybe she'll end up with Solo. I read a theory about Leia and Luke online, but it was pretty gross so I'll spare you the details. Those are just a few of my questions.
I have some theories I feel I need to address. One theory of mine has to do with Han Solo. Again, I think he will end up with Leia, but I think there's more to him than that. I just have a feeling his smuggling past will come back to bite him someday. Now, let's talk about Luke. I think he needs more training, but he seems fairly in touch with the force already. Is he Obi-Wan's son? Talk about a plot twist! Though that's a possibility, I think Luke is related to someone even more important. Part of me feels like Vader could be his father. Call me crazy, but I think that would add more emotion to Star Wars. It's pure speculation though.
Have you seen Star Wars yet? If so, what questions do you have? Are there any mind-blowing theories filling up your brain? Please share your thoughts in the comments! Thanks for reading!
