Star Wars A New Hope Comparison

In Ender’s Game, Colonel Graff states, “With Ender, we have to strike a delicate balance. Isolate him enough that he remains creative-otherwise he’ll adopt the system here and we’ll lose him. At the same time, we need to make sure he keeps a strong ability to lead. ”Graff is talking about his plans for Ender and how to make the perfect commander. This was the major story line throughout the novel.

The war games, mind games, and the final battle were much more vivid in the movies. Special effects are powerful in any movie, but they were especially important in this movie as the scenes were so different from our experiences. The novel described the scenes, but the movie made you feel the emotions more strongly. This was really true in the final “game” when Ender realized he had just wiped out an entire

“War of the Worlds” a science fiction by H.G wells published in 1898. This book was recreated in several different versions overtime, each one was considered the modern version of its time period. The first recreation was the nineteen- thirty-eight radio broadcast. Looking at that now from our eyes, a radio broadcast would be a very unusual way to publicizes a theatrical event. Although, you have to take in consideration, the time period, which then radios were probably advanced technology.

Though a new Star Wars film is just around the corner, Professor Zachary Feinstein from the Washington University in St. Louis is still busy dissecting elements from the original trilogy. The academic recently published a study called "It's a Trap: Emperor Palpatine's Poison Pill," a project that attempts to model the economy of Star Wars' fictional universe and illustrate how the creation - and subsequent destruction of the two 'Death Star' superweapons in the original trilogy drove the Empire's banking system to the point of collapse.

The novel version of War of the Worlds is more effective at creating fear of the unknown with more vivid descriptions and details. In the novel version, the scene is sunset and as night is associated with "when bad things happen” there is an element of fear of what is to come. The author’s word choice describing the crowd and eyewitness when the alien first appears, “A sudden chill came over me.” , “astonishment giving place to horror”, “ungovernable terror gripped me”, and “stood petrified and staring” also heightens the fear of the unknown. There is no such description in the radio broadcast.

There is so much technology in these films that mankind could one day create, so much that could be based off of science. Though the film shows us the technology present is common place for that universe, it takes the audience by storm and captivates like no film before it’s time. The antagonist, while using science to an extreme potential, is not science itself and could exist without technology. And the final nail in the coffin, the force. The key which ties all the films together and fuels the fire between the opposing forces is a work of fantasy.

All three of the stories start with the hero in the ordinary world. For the most part the ordinary world in all of the stories is a setting the hero is unpleased with.

Whether some think the movie is different or not, there are many comparisons and contrasts from the movie and the book.
