Spoiler free: What George Lucas did right and The Last Jedi screenwriter and director did wrong

Rating: 5/10 (19 December 2017)

What George Lucas did right in Star Wars (1977) and The Empire Strikes Back (1980) - and the Star Wars 7 and 8 writers did wrong.
(Besides: Engage me for writing Star Wars screenplays and give me the f... millions ! But I am not a native English speaker :( )
1. Lukas operationalized the idea: to trust the force - turn off the computer an trust his feelings to drop the bomb into the death star slot. This kind of original and useful and efficient operationalization of an idea no other Star Wars screenwriter could fulfill till now.
2. Lukas has red about religion and mythos to make it a key element in the first star wars trilogie (1977, 1980, 1983). his knowledge and sense flowed into star wars movies. The audience can somehow feel this background knowledge! In the later movies, this feeling of the audience of a deeper knowledge about religion, mythos and force has vanished, disappeared. The force really disappeares if you don't work and learn about it as a screenwriter and story teller.
How much (or little to nothing) the latest Star Wars (7, 8 ) screenwriters have red about these literature?
2. the suspence at the end of Star Wars (1977) comes from: will luke skywalker drop the bomb by the right time. the suspence is concentrated in just one target! that maximizes its power!
3. the main characters got what they deserved. Psychological research shows that people like that. Normal people have an inner sense for justice. It makes them angry to see people die who do not deserve that.
4. Lukas did not let killed one of the main good characters with whom the audicence has entered a strong emotional bond. That was a golden decision from Lukas. Because...
5. Lukas' Star Wars is leant to Joseph Campbells theory/model of the Hero's Journey/ Monomyth. According to Campbell the heroes do not die in myth, even if they would die in reality. Mythic stories are not reality, they are wishes, potentials, phantasies, targets of people. Mythic stories should prepare the audicence for the smooth transition into physical death and the believe into a justice, unvisible, everlasting force!
The latest Star Wars authors (Star Wars 7, 8 ) want to shock people and want to show strong turning points and want to leave hold of the beloved good figures of the first Star Wars trilogy. Why? They think it is original, it is art, it is realistic. They don't get it, that Star Wars is MYTHOS! They can not feel the force because they have not red deeply about religion, martial arts philosophy, zen, mythos and so on. They just can write turning points which should shock people and they think, that is art and intelligent.
Letting these beloved figures killed in the movie (Star Wars 7, 8) is a cheap, narrow minded, psychological misguided idea from the storytellers. It proofes just that these storytellers need to have deeper knowledge in psychology, religion, fairy tales, philosophy. Just writing a screenplay in a few month with shocking turning points is not enough for the mythos of Star Wars! The audience feels it!
6. psychological believability, -reality is not needed. Luke Skywalker slowly gets more powerful, in the old trilogy. Han changes a bit, Leia, too. GRADUALLY!
7. appropriate humor! humor at the wrong places and times kills the suspence in star wars 8. the audiences mind gets out of the story at that moments.
8. storylines, plots which are just required. star wars (1977) and empire strikes back are good at that.
in star wars 8 there are needless plots.
9. believable dialog. star wars 8 has lots of dialog which i do not believe in, it kills the story, kills the seriousness of the moment.
10. boldness to show new believable worlds!
George Lukas - bring yourself in shape with the force again like your preparations in 1975-1977 and buy back Star Wars. Oh, that is a wish, but you feel better ! Why? It is a fairy tale, not reality. But sometimes fairy tales become real!
