Perceptions of Religion from Star Wars and Star Trek Abstract Hollywood films and eligionr have an ongoing rocky relationship, especially in the realm of science fiction. A brief comparison study of the two giants of mainstream sci-fi, Star Wars and Star Trek reveals the differing attitudes toward religion expressed in the genre. Star Trek presents an evolving perspective, from critical secular humanism to begrudging personalized faith, while Star Wars presents an ambiguous mythological foundation for mystical experience that is in more ways universal. This article is available in Journal of Religion & Film: https://digitalcommons.unomaha.edu/jrf/vol7/iss2/3 Schultes: Any Gods Out There? Science Fiction has come of age in the 21st century. From its humble beginnings, "Sci- Fi" has been used to express the desires and dreams of those generations who looked up at the stars and imagined life on other planets and space travel, those who actually saw the beginning of the space age, and those who still dare to imagine a universe with wonders beyond what we have today.

    TRANSMEDIA Edited by Sean Guynes and Dan Hassler-Forest STAR WARS and the History of Transmedia Storytelling Star Wars and the History of Transmedia Storytelling Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence The book series Transmedia: Participatory Culture and Media Convergence provides a platform for cutting-edge research in the field of media studies, with a strong focus on the impact of digitization, globalization, and fan culture. The series is dedicated to publishing the highest-quality monographs (and exceptional edited collections) on the developing social, cultural, and economic practices surrounding media convergence and audience participation. The term ‘media convergence’ relates to the complex ways in which the production, distribution, and consumption of contemporary media are affected by digitization, while ‘participatory culture’ refers to the changing relationship between media producers and their audiences. Interdisciplinary by its very definition, the series will provide a publishing platform for international scholars doing new and critical research in relevant fields. While the main focus will be on contemporary media culture, the series is also open to research that focuses on the historical forebears of digital convergence culture, including histories of fandom, cross- and transmedia franchises, reception studies and audience ethnographies, and critical approaches to the culture industry and commodity culture.

  • How the Star Wars Saga Evokes the Creative Promise of Homosexual Love: a Gay-Centered Psychological Perspective
    How the Star Wars Saga Evokes the Creative Promise of Homosexual Love: A Gay-Centered Psychological Perspective Roger Kaufman Published in Finding the Force of the Star Wars Franchise: Fans, Merchandise and Critics Edited by John Shelton Lawrence and Mathew Kapell New York: Peter Lang Publishers, 2006 On the surface, it appears that few of the main characters in the six-film Star Wars space opera have any sexual romantic love in their lives. Only two heterosexual romances are featured in the movie saga, and the first of these, the fateful courtship of Padmé Naberrie (Natalie Portman) and Anakin Skywalker (Hayden Christensen), is portrayed as horribly destructive for the individuals involved and for their entire civilization. The second relationship, a fitful flirtation between Han Solo (Harrison Ford) and Princess Leia (Carrie Fisher), is distinctly secondary to the primary plot. Yet when the Star Wars film narrative is viewed from a gay-centered psychological perspective, a vibrant galaxy imbued with the propulsive, creative “intelligence” of archetypal homosexual love is revealed. It’s not clear to what extent George Lucas knowingly intended these themes of gay love to be a primary aspect of Star Wars symbolic meaning, but I will suggest that, whether the filmmaker is conscious of it or not, the distinctive allure of homosexual romance is so potent, inspiring, politically relevant and potentially curative that it has found its way from the depths of his mind to the scripts and screen. At the same time, I will highlight what I suspect are homophobic aspects of Lucas’s approach, which muffles and sometimes twists the depiction of same-sex love and its archetypal significance in the Star Wars universe.

    UCCS | Undergraduate Research Journal | 10.2 Arguing Progressivism in a Movie Theater Far Far Away By Michael Wheeler Abstract The purpose of this paper is to analyze feminism as it pertains to the Star Wars film series. After examining the opinions of other authors and analyzing scenes from the film, can the female characters be considered progressive as it pertains to feminism? Various authors of other scholarly articles as well as novels, which contain collections of scholarly articles, were used to add ethos to the argument. Biographies and scenes from the Star Wars films themselves were analyzed to gather information on specific female characters from the film and to analyze their actions and personas. Per these sources, there is high praise for the female characters in Star Wars. Characters, both in the foreground and the background of the films, have different stories and attributes that make them strong as characters. These strengths and the characters’ abilities to react to new challenges result in them being deemed progressive by modern society. It will be a pleasure seeing how the series continues to move forward and how it will continue to experiment with the characters and what challenges the characters will face. Introduction Due to the prominence of the male Jedi within the Star Wars film series such as Obi-wan, Yoda, Luke, and Mace Windu, it might seem like the female Jedi are non-existent or rare. However, there were a fair number of female Jedi represented within the Star Wars film series. There were Depa Billada, Aayla Secura, Shaak Ti, Adi Gallia, Luminara Unduli, and many more (Sansweet, 2008; Hidalgo and Beecroft, 2016; et al).
