Description
We have finally made it to the original trilogy. It all started here withStar Wars: A New Hope. So much has been said about this movie, that it feels daunting to even attempt to add to the conversation.
However, we spend a lot of time gushing over how incredible this movie is, from the special effects, music, and well it sticks in our minds.
We also discuss the importance of the hero's journey. It IS important in our lives! Jason has a lot of philosophy for the entire trilogy but is only dropping hints of other things to come. But we talk about "sophistry" and the meta-ethics regarding the ethics of using the Jedi mind trick.
It is a good time.
