From the time of its creation to modern day, Star Wars has been loved by millions of people. First I’ll tell you about the creator of Star Wars, George Walton Lucas Jr, who was born on May 14, 1944 in Modesto California.

    The biggest thing that defines Star Wars as a science fantasy film over a science fiction film, is the Force. In many fantasy and science fantasy works there is some mysterious or magical force that can affect the world around it. In Star Wars, this mysterious force is called the Force and is used by the Jedi and the Sith to affect the world around them. In the original trilogy of Star Wars, the Force is used almost like a magic power, like in other fantasy films such as The Lord of The Rings. In The Lord of The Rings, Gandalf can use his magic to see prophecies of the future, this is like how Luke and Darth Vader use the Force to prophesize about what will happen in the future in Empire Strikes Back.

    evil driving the plot. A New Hope tells everything the viewer needs to know in the first ten seconds, by showing how large the empire is and how small the rebels are (see figure 1). The plot is so simple and concise that almost no exposition is required for the movie to explain itself, because everything is already explained. The Phantom Menace starts with two Jedi talking about a trade dispute with the Trade Federation, right off the bat this is incredibly dull for a Si-Fi movie for kids. The plot then falls into a continuous loop of a minute of action and then ten minutes of exposition, resulting in a boring plot and meaningless action.

    For example, Jaws was the first film that featured a new type of insane character, the giant shark. “Jaws changed the face of American cinema, influencing the next generation of filmmakers to eye summer release dates, high-concept ideas, easy marketability, teaser trailers, TV spots, media junkets, merchandising, and the almighty dollar” (Stephens). In summary, the movie itself brought about many changes, but the shark dreamed up and created by Spielberg inspired new subjects and characters in other future films. Without Jaws, the film industry would not have chased after these new ideas and concepts like having an enormous shark as the main character. Furthermore, Spielberg was one of the first to bring aliens into a motion picture and with that came inspiration.

    George Lucas' Star Wars has been an "unprecedented commercial success in the history of cinema and has made a huge cultural impact" (Feichtinger 28). It is a popular franchise and is widely known all over the world. Star Wars plays a major role in influencing the youth and sending a message to everyone, especially the fans.

These spiritual teachings and motifs are seen throughout the Star Wars movies and they "promote values and worldviews", which are adopted from Buddhism (Feichtinger 34).

Since these traditional inscriptions could be considerate as a kind of written genealogy, their change is clearly full of meaning especially in regard with the concept of Genos. In fact, in the context formed by Genos, it is clear that these changes want to tell the other people something about
