The seventh episode of the famous epic, perhaps, has become the most iconic phenomenon in modern cinema. The most popular premiere of the past year was the movie Star Wars. The attack aircraft from this film named Finn immediately attracted the attention of fans: firstly, this is a new young character who played one of the key roles in the development of the plot. Secondly, his figure seems too ambiguous, so serious controversy even flared up around his personality among fans.
General characteristics of attack aircraft
First, we should briefly talk about what the attack aircraft were. This is one of the units in the imperial army. They are dressed in white armor and armed with blasters and other weapons. In the last episode of the movie saga, two heroes attracted attention. First of all, this, of course, is Finn, as well as one of the stormtroopers who joined him in lightsaber combat . This character has become very popular: his photos circled the Internet. The audience liked his energy and perseverance, which he showed at a critical moment.
The stormtrooper plays a major role in the development of the plot. Star Wars 7 was no exception in this regard. As in the original film epic, the representative of this unit played a large role in the new film. These soldiers are foot soldiers and constantly terrify the inhabitants of those places that are attacked by them.
Character character
One of the main characters of the new tape was an attack aircraft. Star Wars 7 immediately presented its loyal audience with several new original characters. Among them, Finn has a special place. On the one hand, he behaves courageously: boldly stands up for Ray, literally breaks into battle to save her, in a number of scenes he shows simply miracles of courage (for example, a battle with lightsabers, etc.).
However, in other places, on the contrary, he demonstrates indecision, self-doubt. The hero doubts, hesitates, tries to evade responsibility, although the actor himself was clearly determined to play a completely positive character in the movie Star Wars. The attack aircraft, however, turned out to be very cute and attractive, and fans hope that in the next part the creators will develop this character properly.
Character fighting qualities
One of the most controversial points in describing and characterizing the image of Finn is his abilities. At the very beginning, he appears before the audience as a simple ordinary imperial army, which is one of the main plot links in the film "Star Wars". The attack aircraft has the necessary set of qualities that allow him to carry out the minimum necessary commands for warfare.
However, already in the scene of the first battle, we are shown that he is not able to fulfill the command: he does not dare to shoot at the inhabitants and behaves completely different from the soldiers of the empire and other attack aircraft. Star Wars (episode 7) leaves a lot of questions about this. The fact is that most viewers in the comments express some bewilderment at the fact that such an indecisive and incapable of active actions person could become a fighter of the imperial army.
Controversial points in Finn's characterization
Many critics note that the new Star Wars has become a kind of transposition of the old plot. The attack aircraft is something new compared to the old franchise precisely due to the ambiguity of its character. However, in general, the character makes a very positive impression, despite the controversy of some points.
One of the most significant points in this context is the problem of when and how the hero learned to wield a lightsaber. Fans of the original film, of course, remember that in order to control these weapons, a special long hard training was required, which is strongly emphasized in the previous parts.
The creators of the movie Star Wars (episode VII) took a slightly different path. The attack aircraft in this film calmly handles these deadly weapons and even enters the battle, discovering extraordinary abilities in the possession of this lightsaber, which caused a lot of bewilderment among the fans of the new film.
Character appearance
In terms of costumes of heroes, some features can be noted in the movie "Star Wars". The attack aircraft armor is distinguished by more thorough elaboration of details. Modern technology has allowed to create a spectacular costume. Its construction is complex. Armor consists of several elements. The body is protected by an intricate structure of three components: one covers the lower part, the second - the upper, and, finally, there is a special chest plate. The element that protects the press also covers part of the back, thus covering the body from all sides.
The upper part resembles in design a conventional vest with recesses for the neck and arms. Separate special parts of the suit protect the shoulders, biceps, forearms. Special devices, such as a detonator, are attached to the belt. In general, the character’s costume looks pretty awesome, which, incidentally, is consistent with the plot.
Head protection
The Star Wars stormtrooper helmet is, in principle, familiar to all movie epic fans. The white mask has a rather complex structure: it has slits for the eyes, special holes in the mouth. This helmet is perhaps familiar to all viewers of the popular saga. In addition, in the film you can see the black helmet worn by representatives of the high command in the imperial army.
Helmets of soldiers are slightly different from each other. There are those that are designed for fighters of the so-called first order that are equipped with flamethrowers. Separately, it is necessary to highlight the helmets of pilots, which are distinguished by a brighter coloring. In appearance, the helmet has the appearance of an integral design, but in fact it consists of several parts for the lower and upper parts of the face. The head is hidden under a sloping plate, which expands to the bottom and in the area of the jaws takes a very frightening shape.
Slots for the eyes are hidden under dark matter, so the face looks completely impenetrable. The protruding massive lower part provides additional protection for the soldier. In general, the helmet of the stormtrooper from Star Wars merges with the rest of the costume, the armor of the fighters, differing only in some pretentiousness of the lower part. This piece of costume is especially popular with fans of the epic: on the network you can find many instructions for making helmets, as well as offers to buy ready-made models.
General characteristics of the costume
The snow-white white armor of the stormtroopers and their rather sinister helmet emphasize the aggressiveness and hostility of the empire. The costume was created in such a way as to give the impression of something sketchy, geometrically proportional and as if inanimate. This is exactly what the imperial stormtrooper army looks like in Star Wars. The stormtrooper mask completely depersonalizes these people who make the impression of robots.
This is a direct reference to the invented clones from the previous parts. It is known that the director of the new history Abrams, being an ardent admirer of old films, borrowed a lot from the achievements of his predecessors. The suit, armor and helmet of the stormtroopers just remained practically the same.
Army and main characters
The appearance of the imperial attack aircraft as if deliberately emphasizes the positive qualities of the main characters who do not wear permanent special equipment (with the exception of Chubaki) and, so to speak, are open to the audience. An interesting fact is that the stormtrooper squads are dressed in white, while the supreme command of the empire is dressed in solid black. Perhaps this can be seen as a certain semantic implication: attack aircraft are just ordinary soldiers and theoretically can go over to the good side, as happened, for example, with Finn. On the other hand, the snow-white color of the imperial troops gives even more sinister meaning to the army, which carries out mass raids and kills civilians.
The meaning of the image of Finn in the film
The stormtrooper played a major role in the development of the plot of the new part of the popular film saga. Star Wars (Finn's photo is in the article) shows us this new hero as a kind of partner Ray - the main character of the movie saga. Finn's place in the picture is quite significant: he appears at the very beginning of the picture and acts until one end, as one of the main characters.
In general, Finn makes a very positive impression, despite all the omissions, ambiguities, and ambiguities of this person. He is bold, courageous, devoted, and in the end the viewer is imbued with sympathy for this somewhat awkward and awkward character, who nevertheless tries to somehow adapt to difficult circumstances.
In conclusion, it should be said that this image has not yet been fully revealed by the creators, so loyal fans have the hope that in the subsequent parts the scriptwriters will tell us the story of this character, as well as explain his ability to wield a lightsaber.
