But now I see that the roots or main plot follows differnent myths we have learned about.

There is mythology in star wars because in Star Wars the are quest and test that they have to go through, just like the quest that the heroes have to go through, so in that way there is mythology in star wars. Also there is an relationship with mythology in the sense that destiny is involved. In many of the myths we learned about this year have some sort of destiny in the myth. <br />Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550697997197472984.post-12487119818537970372014-05-15T07:18:14.814-07:002014-05-15T07:18:14.814-07:00I think that there is some mythology to Star Wars....I think that there is some mythology to Star Wars. Star wars is based in an alternate world and space. It is a different reality with the characters and the settings. None of the things represented in Star Wars are a reality however they are used to explain how their world is the way it is. This is similar to mythology because it uses different ideas and creative aspects to explain the patterns and ideas of the world.

Both Greek Mythology and Star Wars have an exaggerated perspective on humanity, and overall they relate.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550697997197472984.post-2242568485598179892014-05-15T07:17:13.516-07:002014-05-15T07:17:13.516-07:00George Lucas the director of "Star Wars"...George Lucas the director of "Star Wars" stated how he tries to recreate Myths that we all heard as children and still hear today. He also talked of how he uses the cultures around the world to create his movies in the "Phantom Menace" he used allot of the cultures from Asia to create the planet of Nabu. he talks of his under w world showing his imagination going where nobodies gone before. showing his skills and what he can do has ultimatly he can show good evil and can also show the in between.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6550697997197472984.post-85064618156483827162014-05-15T07:17:06.556-07:002014-05-15T07:17:06.556-07:00The creator of Star Wars stated how he wanted to a...The creator of Star Wars stated how he wanted to add a lot of the motifs that he sees in myths that deal with everyday life like relationships, etc. Many Greek myths are based around different relationships. He also based his costumes off of ceremonial influences from the middle east. Those cultural influences could have come from the myths in that culture. This just shows how influencing mythology can be. It's not just Greek mythology that has a big impact on life today, but all mythology from different cultures.

The robots that are in Star Wars and are being interacted with humans shows what people consider to be a myth because that is not something that you think to be "normal". The idea didn't come based off of anything besides little stories that have been told and sitting down and just going off of what's been told nothing was used to be showed how anything looked or what happened. You are influenced by the things that you like which causes you to change some of the things you heard or saw making it more a what people would call a "myth". Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
