Fans Gen Z Star Wars found an amazing new way to interact with saga
Everyone remembers when they found out that Dart Vader was the father of Luke Skywalker. Some people were lucky to catch him in the theater in 1980 or shortly after the “empire hit back”, made his way to a home video. In the 1990s, I saw it around 1999, when I first watched the original trilogy as a result of the exit of “Star Wars: an episode of the I-Fantom threat”. The disclosure blowed my little mind and there is the reason that it’s not easy One of the greatest moments in the whole franchise “Star Wars”But one of the greatest moments of the film. Unfortunately, this is an elucidation that has become such a non -styled piece of pop -culture in America, there is also an immeasurable number of people who probably learned about the opening of Luke Skywalker’s paternity from a little in “Tommy Boy”, the “family guy’s family guy” joke. , “” Or countless memes that have been distributed for years.
This, unfortunately, means that when the father does not show their young “star wars” at the beginning of life, the great secret of the Weder has no weight as for those who are lucky to grow before the Internet became ubiquitous. Vader, as a father of Luke, everywhere, thanks to cultural osmos at this point, most people who know already know this fun fact, even if they never looked at anything related to “star wars”. Fortunately, the younger fans of “Star Wars” find ways to preserve the saga, and even turned it into a restrained tendency on Tiktok. If you are looking for “Star Wars for the first time”, you will find a flurry video from friends, romantic partners and children watching “Star Wars” movies. However, they do not respond to the father-son Luke/Vadeer, or really anything else from the original trilogy … They respond to the precipitation.
The benefit of viewing “star wars” in chronological order
Fans are discussing more than ten years that is The best way to view the “Star Wars” saga. I grew up by watching the movies in the order of release, but that’s because I was a child when the trilogy was hit in the theater. For generations born after At the end of the prequel movies, without the rules, they must view movies in the order of the issue as opposed to chronological order.
Given the original movies – which are canonical mid -series – quite ubiquitous, starting a complete franchise from Sitha “to pack almost equal disclosure so that the rest of us enjoy when we first plunged into the galaxy. Because social media now has a place to document everythingIt became a tendency to record people who respond to such moments as “Order 66”, or, most often, Anakin Skywalker, becomes Sita Lord, known as Dart Vader.
(Yes, fans must realize that Anakin Skywocker is destined to be a dart Weder if they know that “no, I am your father” already reveal, but if it’s not at the avant -garde of their mind, make this connection not always as obvious as it obvious as it seems.)
The tendency really started in 2019 on the eve of the “Star Wars: Episode IX – Skywalker” for the first time. However, since Disney+ invariably placed new “Star Wars”, such as “Mandalorian”, “Bob Fet’s Book”, and especially “Avak”, the tendency was repeated again and again.
Star Wars benefit fomo
Anakin Arc got a lot of games around the “SPE” season after a series taken by one of George Lucas’s “Star Wars “‘s most controversial decisions. Fomo (or “Fear”) is very real, and if someone you know to fun too. Erga, a new viewers’ crop for the first time checks the franchise of the “Star Wars”, and a new group of people can reason the secrets of sagas that are not so common.
Confess when I first saw these videos (and also understood many The younger people by default “episode I” like the first “star wars”), my original answer was an existential crisis about how old I am, and the old man shouts on Cloud Shock that “big” star wars “were not open”/ Vader, and Anaakin/Vader. But the more I think about it, the more I like that this is how young generations use one of the most influential series of films of all time and peoples. I will never know what it is like to live in a world where the truth about Luke Skywalker and Dart Vider was a famous fact that almost everyone understood, so I do not depend to determine the “best” way to watch the films for the first time.
I personally Earned my peace with the spoiler’s cultureBut this does not mean that I still do not prefer the magic of movies to surprise me. I think it’s pretty damn cool that Gen Z came up with a way to keep “star wars”, feeling fresh and exciting after all these years, doing its thing.
