For one thing, Yoda's kind of meek-looking, and Luke's a little shallow: LUKE: I'm looking for a great warrior. YODA: Ah, a great warrior. War does not make one great. Yoda is a very strange teacher, and Luke often finds his frustrations building to the point that he can't even continue his lessons.

Indeed, all of the epic battles and cosmic events going on around him are in a sense only the backdrop before which Luke’s inner struggles are played out. When we first meet Luke on Tatooine, he is a callow youth, dreaming of adventure ...

Perhaps the most easily recognizable archetype of the series is that of the hero in the form of central character Luke Skywalker, the central hero of the Star Wars films and the fictional universe in which they are situated. The archetypal herois one born with a destiny to fulfill – usually to defeat the forces of evil and restore peace, democracy,...
Darth Vader is often cited as the ultimate archetypal villain in the film genre. Wearing black – the color representative of darkness, dishonesty, evil, and impurity – Darth is the Shadow version of Luke’s hero character. Damaged by events of the past, he is fuelled by an inner rage at the world and turns this into a determination to act for the ca...
Han Solo is the archetypal outlaw of the Star Wars series and, in this role, becomes a form of anti-hero. When we first meet Han he is entirely self-interested and a classic charming rogue. He is willing to help Luke in his cause, but only where this tallies with his own interests rather than because he is actually committed to the cause which Luke...
Princess Leia is a harder character to define in terms of archetype as she changes more than any other character over the course of the series. In the first film she appears to be the archetypal damselin distress – the female character who needs to be rescued from the forces of evil by the male protagonists of the story who, at least on the surface...
Obi-Wan Kenobi fulfills the archetype of mentorto Luke in particular in the first three movies of the series. The advice and guidance that Obi-Wan, as mentor, has to offer Luke is based on his own similar heroic journey from the past, something common to the archetype. Obi-Wan guides Luke on his inner journey to acceptance of who he is and what he ...
Unlike the archetypal mentor, the false mentor is a character who provides incorrect guidance or advice to the hero. This may or may not be for evil reasons – they may simply be innocently mistaken but genuine in their motivations – but whatever the reasons the guidance they give is false. In the Star Wars series, Luke’s Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru ar...
The archetypal Heraldis a character who appears at the beginning of the hero’s journey and brings the ‘Call to Adventure’, a term coined by the aforementioned Joseph Campbell. The ‘Call to Adventure’ is the message, signal, or similar which tells the hero of the journey, quest, or task which they must accomplish in order to fulfill their destiny. I...
The archetypal threshold guardianis a character/set of characters who stands in the way of the hero making progress on their journey or quest. In other words, they act as guards at the threshold of a key point in the hero’s journey and hinder their progress along the way, acting as a test that they must pass if they are to progress further. There a...
A common archetype in Disney films, the friendly beastis most commonly an animal archetype, and, though not traditionally so in the Star Wars films, Chewbacca fits the same mold. The archetype symbolically demonstrates that nature is on the side of good. Whilst not a central character who is essential to the story, the friendly beast that is Chewba...
The most naive and child-like of all the characters in the Star Wars universe, C-3PO meets the child archetypein all ways except physically. Despite his programmed computer intelligence, he does not understand the world in the way an adult does – his ‘brain’ does not make adult connections but instead processes information more like a child’s would...
Author Avatar: Many of Luke's character traits were directly based on Star Wars creator George Lucas (Luke S. = Lucas). Both had to deal with a Fantasy-Forbidding Father (or father-figure , in Luke's case), had an admiration for racing and fast-moving vehicles, and quickly took interest in the concept of spirituality after crucial life-changing events happened to them.

Dec 30, 2021 · Luke was an idealist, even in his earliest days. It was this idealism that would eventually lead to his undoing, following his nephew Ben Solo's fall to the dark side, and ascension as Kylo Ren. However, it was a major character trait that defined Luke, right to the end. RELATED: 10 Times The Original Star Wars Trilogy Hinted At The Prequel Era ...
