1. WHEN STAR WARS WENT ROGUE
Star War is what we will be discussing taking you all down your memory lane.
The third week of December is fast approaching, and for science fiction film
enthusiasts, that mean the end of a two-year wait for The Last Jedi.
If the name doesn’t ring a bell, here’s a little bit of background.
The Last Jedi is the eighth instalment in the Star Wars film series, an epic space
opera that began with 1977’s Star Wars (which was later renamed as Episode
IV: A New Hope).
The series is both commercially and critically acclaimed, with all seven films
having been nominated for Academy Awards, and the series as a whole being
among the highest-grossing of all time.
A worldwide popular culture phenomenon, the series is augmented by
numerous forms of media, including a planned spin-off anthology series.
The first of this series, Rogue One, was released last year, and occurs
chronologically before the very first film in the series.

2. The release of Rogue One was preceded by the ‘Go Rogue'Campaign, which
invited fans from all over the world to create their own short films or skits
based on the franchise, usingStar Wars toys and merchandise.
The Campaign featured a four-partfan-made seriescalled 'Go Rogue', along
with a contest for fans around the world.
Commandeered by a group of ‘rebel super-fans’, theGo Rogue series describes
the story of JynErso, the protagonist of Rogue One, and her group of rebels as
they attempt to steal the Galactic Empire's plans for the superweapon they are
building.
The GoRogue chapter made in stop motion animation, using the line of toys
released in anticipation of Rogue One.
Some additional visual effects were provided by Hasbro's Star Wars StudioFX
application.
Along with the animated series, the#GoRogue Contest was launched as a
showcase of Star Wars fans' creativity, where theyshared their 'Rogue Stories'
set in a galaxy far, far away.
While most entries were animated, there were some live-action short films
going head to head with animation in the contest.
Seven of these ‘rebels' were ultimately chosen as winners, with the prize being
a chance to attend a special pre-release screening of Rogue One and tour the
Rancho Obi-Wan (which boasts the world’s largest collection of Star Wars
memorabilia).

3. Despite the thematic range of presentation, the uniting (and, one may even
say, deciding) factors in the winning films were an impeccable quality of
production, strong scriptwriting and unique visual storyboard, compelling
character development, and overall entertainment.
Humour plays a major role in the original films, and those that managed to
capture that underlying thread of fun made the cut in the competition.
