thread_title:  I have a feeling.... 

message: The overview doesn’t point out why Vader killed the Emperor; a father's love for his son!  It should end something like this: 
Instead of convincing Luke to join the dark side, the young Jedi defeats Vader in a lightsaber duel and is able to convince him that there is still some good in him.  The Emporer then attempts to kill Luke however before he can succeed Vader’s love for his son proves stronger than his allegence to the Emporer. Vader defends Luke and kills the Emperor before succumbing to his own injuries,  and the second Death Star is destroyed, restoring freedom to the galaxy.

thread_title:  Star Wars 

message: Star Wars is not loosely based on the Hidden Fortress.  Star wars is a remake of the first two-thirds of the Hidden Fortress.  The movie follows the Hidden Fortress closely until after the spear duel.  That is where the similarity ends.  It is then that the movie is a remake of the final battle of The Damnbusters.  
The Damnbusters is 1954 Micheal Anderson film depicting a battle in which british bombers make attack runs at low altitude along a river trench to launch bouncing bombs at precise moments to destroy nazi damns.  They are harried by enemy fighters and guns mounted on the damns.  Even the targeting methods they use are strikingly similar to the targeting computers used in star wars.
If you wish to be accurate and fair you should give credit to both Kurosawa and Michael Anderson.  If you watch both movies you will see that Star Wars is not loosely remade of either one, but it is a remake of both.  It is two thirds Hidden Fortress/one third Damnbusters.
I am a huge fan of Star Wars and George Lucas.  His great gift was taking two old, totally unrelated, stories and creating the greatest sci-fi movie of all time.  He introduced many new, rich, bold, characters and created an entire saga around this one remake.  I just feel very strongly that credit should be given where credit is due.  I appluad you for giving credit to Akira Kurosawa and ask you extend the same courtesy to Michael Anderson.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 24.130.154.116 (talk) 12:08, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

replies: text: Well, Lucas made one Film. And then developed 2 sequels with a rough backstory, which he wanted to make into a trilogy of feature films (and later did). That thing is complete. It is the story of Anakin Skywalker. But now he sees that there are some gaps. One of those are The Clone Wars. So, while Star Wars is the Story of Anakin Skywalker, The Clone Wars is the Story of the overall Conflict. It is a side story of the Anakin Skywalker Saga. In short, it is not an essential part of Star Wars but rather something new. Also TCW is not a feature film on it´s own, but rather a pilot for the Series. And since Star Wars has the neccessary prestige, this pilot could be released theatrical. And I think that should be noted somewhere. 87.174.223.150 (talk) 22:27, 20 March 2009 (UTC)

I think it is somewhat idiotic listing TCW alongside the film series and later list it again as a spin-off film in the same article. Suggestion: Change the box to "Star Wars Film Series".

And how did Star Trek's corporate overlords react? With what seems like remarkable grace, in this age of copyright crackdowns. CBS, which owns Star Trek these days, allows fans to create derivative works as long as they're not for profit. But Phase II wasn't just tolerated: It was impressive enough to attract many Hollywood veterans of the “real” Trek series.

replies: text: Dphilp75, I would agree with you, in a way. While I have not yet reached that point in SW:KotOR (or maybe I ignored it), I think I remember hearing something about Korriban. General Grevious is Dark Side - oriented (while not necessarily of the Force) and is in fact a sentient being (with a droid's body--I could go into that, but that would be beside the point), but since he cannot use the Force, he is not a Sith. Besides, that would violate the Sith Code (I actually don't know if this is a written thing, but there seems to be present guidelines for the Sith, and the following is stated in The Phantom Menace at Qui-Gonn's memorial), where it says that there are only two--a master and an apprentice. Emperor Palpatine's apprentice was Count Dooku, but he used both him and Grevious as pawns in his 'master plan' (which of course ultimately failed). As far as I can remember, the Emporer always had one apprentice at a time. That is, unless he had a different Sith master (very unlikely, never heard anything about it--if anything there's evidence against it). Anyway, no, I wouldn't consider Grevious a Sith.

replies: text: Qui-gon is generally considered to be a "Grey Jedi".  Grey Jedi hold a less "traditional" view of the Force and do not always recognize the Jedi Council as an Authority.  This does not however mean that some Grey Jedi do not submit to the Councils wishes.  Qui-gon in particular is a good example of this.  He accepted Obi Wan as his Padawan with the Council's approval, he accepted missions assigned to him by the Council and even accepted the Council's decision to not out right train Anakin.  Further, he was specifically called "Master" by both Obi Wan *AND* the Council.  This all adds up to Qui-gon being a Jedi Master, albeit a Grey Jedi and held in some suspicion.

message: Why do we keep using the work "franchise" when we mean "series". This has become common and is incorrect. A franchise is "a business or service given such authorization to operate." A "series" is "a set of related television or radio programs, esp. of a specified kind." And "other documents published in a common format or under a common title." Movies can fit into that definition.  If you run a PizzaHut restaurant, that's a franchise because you don't own the company, but are doing business with them with your own restaurant, and they allow you to do so. The Star Wars movies are a series, all done by the same producer. If Lucas had other people make their own versions on a regular basis, that would be a franchise. i.e., they don't own it, but as licensing it from Lucas.

I'm thinking of the reader who did not grow up with Star Wars and wants to find out what it is.  I think that should be the target audience of the first sentence. So I think it is essential to include "film series" there.  I guess I'll try trimming down the first sentence to that, which will make it less wordy, and working the media franchise in later.

text: Even if The Force is a supernatural element, why should it dominate the more prevalent technological aspect of the film(s)? Supernatural forces can be found to have a significant place in fiction (X-files, Battlestar Galactica, SeaQuest DSV) that's still classified as Science Fiction because it's the more dominant theme. I could see it bearing mention if there were some qualifying sources bringing it up, but until then it's too much of a force fit.  ——Digital Jedi Master (talk) 07:12, 28 February 2012 (UTC)

message: The article should explain why this film is so popular. It is very frequently voted 'best film ever' in polls of readers of magazines and websites which have a predominantly male readership. There must be an explanation to this, yet I've not seen one. Those of us who see it as nothing more than a children's fairytale set in outer space would like to know why millions of men state that this is their favourite film (not merely that it was their favourite when they first watched it during their childhood).

message: Two areas of the lead section seem to contain grammar which could be improved. The first sentence says, "Star Wars is an American epic space opera franchise consisting of a film series created by George Lucas." (my emphasis on the problematic part)  I think this should be worded more clearly, since the term "consisting of" implies that's all there is, yet 'franchise' (generally and here) includes more than the film series. I know the next sentence goes on to explain that, but I think the first sentence should say something like "franchise centered on a film series..."  or "franchise including a film series..."  Also the third paragraph ends with this: "All six of the main films in the series were also nominated for or won Academy Awards." I understand this was probably written with efficiency in mind, but it's an awkward construction because of the "or" -- so I think the sentence should be expanded to make it clear that all six got nominations, with three winning (unless it's more than three as listed in this article.)

thread_title:  Other movies mention 

message: One of the key plot details of the trilogy is left out. The closing scene of the original movie is summarized as "Luke himself fires the shot that destroys the deadly space station." True, but this moment had greater significance to the plot of the rest of the trilogy, since Luke didn't just fire the shot, but rather used the Force to hit a shot that was practically impossible (in fact the torpedoes are shown changing direction to hit the target). By doing this practically in front of Vader, who noted the strength of the Force coming from the young pilot, Luke announced his existence - came out of the closet as it were. Thus "Empire" opens with Vader "obsessed with finding" young Skywalker.
Our plot summary goes from Luke being completely unknown to Vader to Vader luring him into a trap. This needs to be linked and the link is Luke using the Force to destroy the Death Star.
It's a great plot summary and better than I could do but I will propose a replacement sentence knowing others can probably improve: "Although the station's weakness proves to be tiny, Luke uses the Force to deliver the deadly shot, attracting the attention of Vader, who barely survives the battle." Or something like that. Kgdickey (talk) 08:06, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: Sounds like mostly WP:OR.  The movies don't expressly elaborate on those details. DP76764 (Talk) 14:19, 9 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: OR? It's a major part of the plot! At the continual urging of Obi-Wan's voice or whatever, he turns off his computer, which is noted by the flight commanders, and uses the Force to hit the shot. It's hardly OR, it's the turning point of the movie. Vader goes from having no idea Luke exists to, at the opening of the next movie, being "obsessed" with finding him. This is no original thought - the plot summary on the page neglects to mention Luke using the Force to destroy the Death Star, which is (his choice of "his feelings" vs. the computer) the climax of Part IV and the reason for the whole plot of Part V. You could argue that saying "Luke himself fires the shot that destroys the deadly space station" is good enough - that the fact that he used the Force is not really an important detail. You would be wrong, but you could argue it. But how this is OR is beyond me.Kgdickey (talk) 11:02, 11 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: If it's so significant and is 'the turning point of the movie', then you'll easily be able to find some sources to corroborate that position.  You're adding a lot of verbosity to (and promoting the importance of) something that's mostly visual/unspoken; that's where caution is important as it's easy for personal interpretation to sneak into an edit.

replies: text: Perhaps my extra verbiage has confused the issue - all I really think is needed is some mention that Luke used the Force on the final shot. Is there honestly any doubt about this point? Other than the script of the film what other source could possibly be authoritative? To be clear I am not looking to have any interpretation included - maybe just, "Luke used the Force to deliver the shot that destroyed the Death Star."

Kgdickey (talk) 10:24, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: To be fair, a part from the script from Ben saying "use the force Luke" there is no evidence that he actually did this, I mean, he used torpedoes which probably had some lock on feature so what's to say that wasn't the case? I could also point out that Luke being a Jedi on the side of the rebels is a pretty big deal, and what is to say that they weren't advertising it left right and centre to let everyone know they had the last Jedi on their side? And if you read the comics, any sign of a Jedi and Vader was all over it like a fat kid in a sweet shop. Which would more than explain his motivations in hunting Luke.  MisterShiney ✉  10:39, 12 April 2013 (UTC)
replies: text: I disagree - he turns off the computer, indicating that the torpedoes are no longer locked onto anything - why else have him turn off the computer? That's the point - he decided to do it Obi-Wan's way. And the rebels did not know anything about having a Jedi in their midst - Biggs has to vouch for Luke (in the restored scene) just to convince the Rebels to throw the farmboy into battle as a common fighter pilot. How was Luke "the last Jedi" at this point in the timeline? He had done nothing but play a few lightsaber games with Obi-Wan. He doesn't claim to be a Jedi for the first time until Episode VI. Again, it's more than just Obi-Wan saying "use the Force Luke." The music changes from "battle" to "dreamy," he turns off the computer (acknowledged by mission commanders, to make sure you don't miss it), makes an "I am now feeling the Force flow through me" face and launches the torpedoes. They are shown changing direction to go straight into the exhaust port (both of them, on a shot that "impossible, even for a computer"). If Luke didn't use the Force in that moment, and since the computer was switch off, how exactly did he do it? Didn't you notice the music change? LOL. Kgdickey (talk) 13:35, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

text: I agree that it's clear that Luke uses the Force to make the shot and would support clarifying that line in the article in the simplest manner possible.  (To answer your question about what other sources could be used here is 1 example: an interview with a writer/director/producer, in a respected trade publication, where they explain the scene.  There are many other possibilities for other sources as well.)  I think we should stop short of speculating on how this event motivated Luke's dad though, as that isn't clearly shown in the films; that would be where the OR could come in.

The heroine had no last name, she was just Princess Leia. The rule is to write these Wikipedia articles for the interested, non-expert, reader. I am sure that most readers do not know her last name. 
I also rearranged the order of characters slightly. I really think the table should have Luke and Leia first.

to 140 years after SW6: The Return of the Jedi (paraphrased from the actual article). Firstly (and pretty inconsequentially), the year system runs from SW4: A New Hope, with anything before being classed as Before the Battle of Yavin (BBY) and everything after Episode 4 being After the Battle of Yavin (ABY). Secondly, the earliest date in the EU has been pushed back to 36,453 BBY as opposed to circa 25000 years BBY in the 2012 comic book series Dawn of the Jedi (issue 1 published February 15th 2012- the date is quite clearly stated inside).
It would also be worth noting that as of April 25th, 2014, Lucasfilm Ltd. has revealed that any new material written around Star Wars will not be done so in the context of the existing expanded universe, and any existing EU titles will henceforth be printed as part of Star Wars: Legends. It is as yet unclear how any media from the metaphorical clean slate of the will be implemented without causing confusion, as Dark Horse (comic publishing company) have large amounts of material scheduled for release throughout the year within the Legends grouping, while newer, post- April 25th announcement books have been scheduled for launch as early as September, 2014, with John Jackson Miller's A New Dawn, which is itself a novel acting as a prequel to Star Wars Rebels.
