The baTTle of The Trilogies
“Star Wars” revolutionized the trilogy archetype and stands the test of time.
By Shane newell City Editor
Since modern film emerged nearly 100 years ago, only one film trilogy has been able to define a generation, revolutionize the way films are made and entertain audiences of all ages. “Star Wars,” the epic and dramatic trilogy starring Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher and Harrison Ford, is easily the most important ¿OP WULORJ\ RI DOO WLPH :LWK ³$ New Hope,” “The Empire Strikes Back” and “Return of the Jedi,” WKH ³6WDU :DUV´ WULORJ\ ¿OOHG D QLFKH LQ ¿OP WKDW KDG ORQJ EHHQ overlooked.

Although the basic story of “Star Wars” may not be the most original or inventive, its use of innovative set designs, special effects and superb actors is truly unique. Take the opening scene of “A New Hope” for example, where The audiences sees a rebel ship being chased by a giant Empire Star Destroyer. The profound sense of epic, visionary cinema is present from the very beginning. “A New Hope,” which is probably WKH EHVW LQGLYLGXDO ¿OP RI WKH WULOogy, has so many special moments. 7DNH 'DUWK 9DGHU¶V ¿UVW DSSHDUDQFH on screen. With a strange, oddshaped helmet and a black wardrobe to match, Vader is easily one of the most sinister looking characters to ever appear on screen.

After all, a whole is more than sum of its parts.

“Toy Story” tugs at the heartstrings of millions and unravels sweet nostalgia.
By Joann Row Opinions Editor
In 1995, “Toy Story” debuted on the silver screen and warmed the hearts of millions. Little did we know that a story about a boy and his toys would open the doors of a 10-year love affair. Andy and his best friend Woody would bring the world into the best trilogy of the millennium. The first installment of “Toy Story” was the first introduction of a feature-length, computer-animated film and the first film Pixar produced. During the opening weekend, “Toy Story” swooped into box office and grossed over $29 million, according to boxofficemojo.com. The success in the “Toy Story” franchise only skyrocketed with “Toy Story 2,” reaching over $57.3 million on opening weekend, and “Toy Story 3,” breaking over $110 million. “Toy Story 3” is the highest grossLQJ DQLPDWHG ¿OP WR GDWH GHVSLWH WKH WULYLDO ³LQÀDWLRQ´ DQG WKH ³ '´ SULFH debates. It’s no surprise that the “Toy Story” franchise has reached such high praise. The accolades are well deserved. The true success in “Toy Story” is how the relatable story reached a world wide demographic, regardless of ethnicity, gender or age. “Toy Story” hits home with the friendship between us and our childhood toys.

I still feel the love and a slight pang in my heart when I think about them today. That Raggedy Ann doll got lost in the midst sometime between my transition into preschool and my relocation to a new city. Raggedy and I are the same as Woody and Andy, showing that Toy Story’s tale translates to all ages and will continue to tug at the heartstrings of every newborn for the rest of time.

The Oscar season has come and gone once again. For the past 86 years, the Oscars have been the most anticipated award show on television.

As a society, we have grown more accepting of individual differences, whether it be skin color, sexual preference, or gender. This acceptance is shown to have carried over into the award show, allowing opportunities to those who may have been barred from such accomplishments in the past due to judgement from society. Times may have changed, but the purpose of the awards remains the same. We honor these phenomenal actors, writers and directors for their hard work and dedication to their craft.
