personal views on movies... and some other things

"Star Wars" cast sing a "Star Wars Medley"

The time has come (or for a handful of countries - mine included it has almost come) to celebrate the return of the Star Wars universe to cinemas. Star Wars: The Force Awakens, the 7th film in the series, once again takes us a long time ago to a galaxy far away but 30 years after where Episode 6 "Return of the Jedi" left us in 1983.
All the beloved cast returns as well, as Harrison Ford (Han Solo), Mark Hamill (Luke Skywalker) and Carrie Fisher (Princess Leia) are portraying their legendary roles so many years later. Little is known about the plot and as true fans would tell you, it's better to know little so that you can enjoy the film even more. This time however, JJ Abrams is on the director's chair and he is the man behind the unique Lost and the successful (at least in my opinion) reboot of Star Trek. So let's see now what he has made of the Star Wars universe. The first reviews seem quite favourable eitherway so that's a very good sign after the somewhat disappointing 2nd trilogy of Episodes 1-3 that came to cinemas in the years 1999-2005.
Yesterday, The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon presented a video where the show's host himself hums a medley of the most iconic musical Star Wars themes along with the amazing band that accompanies the show The Roots and also the stars of the new film: Daisy Ridley, John Boyega, Oscar Isaac, Adam Driver, Gwendoline Christie, Lupita Nyong'o, Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford. John Williams' scores are always great to hear so, as you can imagine, this was very enjoyable too. Enjoy!



Star Wars is coming to a cinema near you, soon!
