So she went in the house, grabbed some paint, mixed the colors together, and dipped her ears into an enormous bowl of paint. Pippa slipped into the bowl. Oops! She thought this bowl might be a bit too big! She got out of the bowl and she said, “Oh look at me! I’m tie- dyed!” Pippa tried to shake the colors off but it didn’t work. Then she went into her crate. But her owner grabbed her and said, “This isn’t our dachshund! It’s tie-dyed!” So they kicked Pippa out of the house and Pippa roamed around the streets. It rained. It poured. Pippa’s tie- dye washed off. Hours later, Pippa was walking around and thought wow this house sure looks familiar. Then suddenly something warm and cozy wrapped around her and Pippa was snuggled tight by her owner. “There you are!” her owner cried. “We’ve missed you!” To find out more about life with Pippa, tune into next week’s paper! MY CAT MORTIMUS WESELTON JONES CULVER III: MORT AND THE KITTEN PART 2 Submitted by Edie Culver Mort had just told Lilia that she was so cute and tiny and sleepy that he was going to keep her and name her Lilia after his two favorite cats, Lily, and Leia his older and younger sisters. Lilia was very happy to hear that she would be staying with the knight, because she had never been loved or even met her parents. Mort was very good at caring for the little kitten and always loved her but when she was six months old he was needed in a far kingdom called Angdorien to defeat the evil dragon that was burning down the kingdom’s houses. Once the dragon was destroyed, Mort would be the greatest of all the knights on End Earth (End Earth is the world that they live on). Mort said goodbye to Lilia and she asked why he had to go but he gave no answer. Later that evening Lilia got worried that Mort would never return and that she had been left alone again. So, Lilia got ready to find Mort! Tails of Mort will be continued in the next issue . stay tuned! APRIL 27, 2020 ISSUE #7, page 6 THE WITCH, THE DRAGON AND MARY: CHAPTER 2, HOUSE SECRETS Submitted by Elsa Watson Suddenly Mary felt an icy cold hand on her shoulder. She gasped and turned around. As she moved closer to the icy hand, she could feel a waft of air as cold as a snowstorm. Mary bravely asked, “Who’s there?” Suddenly a bright light shot from the ceiling! As Mary’s eyes adjusted, she tried to focus on the thing that had touched her a few seconds ago. It was Hazel! “How did you get here?” Mary asked. “Were you following me?” “No,” Hazel answered. “I was just trying to get to the kitchen for you must be hungry from your long trip. I didn’t mean to startle you.” “Do you mean to tell me there’s more secret passageways in this house?” Mary asked. “Yes and no.” said Hazel. “Yes, these are secret passageways now but they used to be servants corridors if you know what I mean. Feel free to explore them on your own. There’s nothing dangerous about them. If you’ll excuse me, I’ll be on my way.” Mary flattened her back against the wall so that Hazel could pass. Then Mary left the strange room and started to explore the house. After finding her room, her father’s room, and Hazel’s room, she turned to the next room. But for some reason the room was locked. Mary went to find the kitchen. She found Hazel making a sandwich. “Hazel,” Mary said. “I have a question.” “Oh, sorry,” said Hazel. “I didn’t see you there. What did you need?” “I have a question,” said Mary. “About what?’ asked Hazel. “While I was exploring the house, I found a room that was locked,” said Mary. Hazel passed her a key. “This will open the door. Be careful it’s a bit of a clutter,” said Hazel. “Thank you,” said Mary, as she left the kitchen and headed back to the locked room. As Mary turned the key, the door swung open all on its own. Mary stared into the room. It was definitely cluttered. As she looked around something caught her eye. It was a box of scrolls. She pulled one out. It was a map of the house but not just any map. It had all of the passageways on it. Mary placed it back in the box and pulled out another scroll. This one had something she could not read. It was in some kind of foreign language. She wondered if her father could read it. He had taught kids foreign languages at a school before he started working at the furniture making shop. Mary put the scroll back in the box and picked up the box very carefully.

  • Review of Rogue One: a Star Wars Story
    DVD reviews Rogue One: A Star Wars Story (Gareth Edwards US 2016). Walt Disney Studios 2017. Region 1. 2.39:1 widescreen. US$23. Sean Guynes-Vishniac After the release of Revenge of the Sith (Lucas US 2005), the third film in the Star Wars prequel trilogy in 2005, George Lucas and Lucasfilm had no plans to add further feature films to the multi-billion-dollar franchise. This was in part because fans of the original Star Wars trilogy (1977–83) hated the prequels, and because Lucas was now interested in television, starting with the animated series The Clone Wars (2008–14, 2019). When Disney bought Lucasfilm, they announced a new trilogy extending the saga of the Skywalker family, and several standalone non-saga ‘anthology’ films to fill narrative gaps in the universe; Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is the first of these anthology films. Its position raises important questions about the contemporary state of the transmedia sf franchise, while its narrative looks at the limits and possibilities of sf blockbusters’ political work. To provide an easy entry into the franchise’s storyworld, Rogue One offers a cast of new characters that fit (and slightly modify) well-known franchise types: protagonist Jyn Erso (Felicity Jones), for example, pairs the scruffiness of Han Solo with the paternal drama of Luke Skywalker; Chirrut Îmwe (Donnie Yen) takes on the Jedi mystique and mentor role of Obi-Wan Kenobi; K-2SO (Alan Tudyk) is the non-human, comedy-relief sidekick, a cynical update of C-3PO. Cassian Andor (Diego Luna), however, stands out thematically, mixing the scoundrel qualities of Solo with the risky charm of Lando Calrissian, and bringing a moral ambiguity to the normally black-and-white world of Jedi and Sith; perhaps these qualities have led to Andor’s being named as the protagonist of one of the upcoming Star Wars series on the new streaming service Disney+.

  • MASCULINE REPRESENTATIONS in STAR WARS by NICOLE
    UNMASKING HEGEMONIC MASCULINITY: MASCULINE REPRESENTATIONS IN STAR WARS by NICOLE MARTINEZ B.A., University of Colorado Colorado Springs 2017 A thesis submitted to the Graduate Faculty of the University of Colorado Colorado Springs in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts Department of Communication 2019 © 2019 NICOLE MARTINEZ ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii This thesis for the Master of Arts degree by Nicole Martinez has been approved for the Department of Communication by Christopher Bell, Chair K. Maja Krakowiak Katie Sullivan December 16, 2019 iii Martinez, Nicole (M.A. Communication) Unmasking Hegemonic Masculinity: Masculine Representations in Star Wars Thesis directed by Associate Professor Christopher Bell. ABSTRACT Star Wars has influenced generations of American viewers for decades but has gone largely unanalyzed when it comes to a critique of the discourses about masculinity presented in the films. This is problematic as media serves as an agent of socialization, and the representations of masculinity in the Star Wars franchise may influence viewers’ idealization of masculinity leading to real world consequences. The research questions being analyzed in this study are: Is hegemonic masculinity performed by central characters in Star Wars? If so, how is it reinforced, how is it challenged, and how do these change over time? This study uses a critical discourse analysis to analyze the character development of twenty central characters of the Star Wars franchise, how these characters are both challenged and aspire to fall into ideals of hegemonic masculinity, and how these ideals may shift over time. Keywords: Star Wars, Critical Discourse Analysis, Hegemonic Masculinity, Toxic Masculinity iv ACKNOWLEDGEMENTS I would like to thank all of the people in my life who made it possible for me to submit this thesis and pursue my Masters education.

    Unbound: A Journal of Digital Scholarship Realizing Resistance: An Interdisciplinary Conference on Star Wars, Episodes VII, VIII & IX Issue 1, No. 1, Fall 2019 USING THE FORCE OF REPRESENTATION The New Hope Against the Rise of White Nationalism Casey Walker Abstract: Christine Cornea’s article “From Isolationism to Globalism: An Overview of Politics and Ethics in the Hollywood Science Fiction Film” discusses the discourse on nationalism, isolationism, and the fear of globalization in Hollywood’s science fiction films beginning in the 1930s. Cornea concludes these films have an “overwhelming concern with the defence [sic] of the nation throughout this period” and notes “the frequent narrative emphasis on confrontation (whether competitive, threatening, or violent) across circumscribed borderlines.” These filmic manifestations of normative anxiety concerning migration and the immigrant "Other" create a space in which nativism and annihilation of immigrants are celebrated. However, in the most recent installments of the Star Wars franchise, Episodes VII & VIII, the films advocate a more global, borderless society where humans and aliens coexist in a united front of resistance against the Empire. The racial diversity of the human characters further accentuates this conscious effort on the part of the studio and filmmakers to make inclusion and diversity the heart of the resistance against an Empire, which itself is emblematic of the mostly white, mostly male hierarchy of nativism and exclusion. This paper will use previous literature (such as the article mentioned above) to launch a discussion of the ways in which the latest installments in the Star Wars canon subvert the tradition of nationalist and nativist tendencies in science fiction films, creating a diverse resistance, while also serving as fertile ground for a response to the rise of nationalism (specifically white nationalism) in our nation today.

  • Research and Inspiration for Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge
    Research and Inspiration for Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge Walt Disney Imagineering designed Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge to be the definitive Star Wars experience, where everything in the land is authentic to that famous galaxy far, far away. Inspiration for the planet Batuu and its Black Spire Outpost came from all manner of sources, including film sets, archival documents, real- world locales and more. The architecture of Black Spire Outpost is anchored by strong geometric forms. Many architectural components are fragmented and asymmetrically arranged, with thick walls often coated with heavy, ancient plaster to tell the story of a mysterious land with a deep, rich history. Imagineers studied real- world locations to learn how time and history reveal themselves in architecture and environments through erosion and visual wear. Imagineers traveled to Morocco and Turkey to experience ancient open-air markets. These sources provided Black Spire Outpost’s authentically earthy, yet otherworldly environment. Going beyond typical tourist locations, Imagineers took thousands of reference photos for street market items, cracks in the pavement, ancient stonework, landscaping, lighting, electrical wiring and much more to shape the look and feel of Black Spire Outpost. In search of aesthetic inspiration for the land, Imagineers visited George Lucas’ private archives in California to study original Star Wars concept artwork created by Ralph McQuarrie, the artist who helped Lucas shape the look of the Star Wars To ensure authenticity in their designs for the land, Imagineers also visited active Star Wars film sets in the United Kingdom. There they studied everything from ships to costumes to props to help inform their work on Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge.
