I mean, that's what was said in that first film!Īnd there I am sitting in the theater at almost 11 years old and that was a powerful notion. It meant someone who could believe, someone who could reach down to the depths of your feelings and follow this primal energy that was flowing through all of us. Being strong with the force didn't mean something scientific, it meant something spiritual. This was something that we could all access. For me when I heard Obi-Wan say that the Force surrounds us and binds us all together, there was no judgement about who you were. And it was more of a fairytale in that regard. To me Star Wars was never about science fiction - it was a spiritual story. I'm not someone who quite understands the science of the Force. And having said all that and meaning it - I don't want to presume over-write or change what George says the rules are. And because I love Star Wars and have for too many years. I never wanted to negate canon that fans held so dear. And we worked hard to clarify that we are not saying that our Star Trek over-rides a thing of the original Star Trek - it was a parallel timeline. A lot of people who are critics of our Star Trek, and I respect all of them, said we destroyed what they loved and negated everything. I will just say this: I would never presume to question anything George Lucas says is canon in Star Wars.Why can't life be like Star Wars? ~ Aaron McGruder Vader Episode I: Shards of the Past (2018, fan film)Ī friend of mine back home just died.I never got to say goodbye, you know?

But this peculiar detail reveals the metaphor that Star Wars is working with: each planet in Star Wars is basically each country in our world. Of course, any one planet could have a myriad of different climates and ecosystems in the real world. We are introduced to desert planets and ice planets and swamp planets. One of the more commonly described oddities of the Star Wars universe is the notion of entire planets with one climate.
