Deconstructing the Movies of George Lucas: part 4

INDIANA JONES
The Spielberg directed/Lucas created Indiana Jones movies were influenced by action adventure matinee-serials, history, and archaeology. Common elements in the series deal with Nazis, the occult and supernatural artifacts. There are several documentaries about Hitler, Himmler and the Nazi’s obsession with the occult, specifically the dark side of the occult (Discovery Channel's Nazis: The Occult Conspiracy, Hitler’s Search for the Holy Grail, and National Geographic: Hitler and the Occult). Occultism deals with ancient hidden knowledge from various ancient cultures, mystery religions and mystery schools, and secret societies have carried down this ancient knowledge over thousands of years. Many key Nazis are said to have ties to occult secret societies such as the Vril, Thule, and Black Sun. Thule society member Dietrich Eckart was very influential to Hitler. The Thule society believed in the Aryan race and Hyperborea, or Atlantis, which was said to have had great technological weapons of mass destruction. I haven't found out if Hitler actually went after the Ark, but apparently he got the Spear of Destiny in Austria, supposedly giving him great power. Occultists reference ancient religions and cultures of the world such as Egyptian, various pagan, and the Hindu. The Hindu seemed to be particularly interesting for the Nazis (symbols like the swastika and talk about the Aryan race). Other occult symbols in Nazi imagery include the sig rune, fasces, swastika, black sun, torchlight marches, the may pole, promoting the ring logo and torch relay in the Olympics, etc. Heinrich Himmler was all over the occult, and in 1938, the SS Ahnenerbe traveled on an expedition to Tibet for “scientific research,” with the aim to prove the Aryan race with evidence. They returned with ancient Buddhist texts, mandalas, a robe of a lama as a gift to Hitler, and studies on roots of the Aryan race.

In Raiders of the Lost Ark, the ark’s powers are demonstrated by what looks like electrical bolts of lightning, and among other things, supernatural spirits. It affects the lamps and generators, fries people and melts their faces off. Researchers of the real ark have suggested it to actually be a portable Tesla-type electro-magnetic radioactive weapon of mass destruction of sorts. Author Laurence Gardner describes it as “an insulated, double-plated box with a positive and negative nodes at the top. That’s all it is. You have a 100,000 volt immediate electric capacitor.” Physicist Nassim Haramein points out that when ancient cultures speak of even more ancient cultures, like Atlantis, they destroyed themselves with these great powerful objects, and humans have re-discovered it as the ark we know, and we’ve been trying to figure out this technology all over again ever since. A primitive people's reaction to an incomprehensible technology would be to call it the power of god. He also suggests when the Biblical Moses had the power of the Ark as a guiding force in the exodus, it was really two things; 1) a sacred object, one of many, with another one possibly being the black stone of mecca, and this is really what pharaoh was chasing after him for, and 2) the container, the gold plated cherub noded capacitor container they were instructed to make later. Ancient texts describe it as lifting off, suggesting magnetic anti-gravity tech; the people would follow and settle wherever it settled, building a tabernacle and fence around it. Perhaps too many mishaps occurred where people touched it and got electrocuted, and therefore only the educated initiates would be allowed near it. Belloq put on Jewish priest garb believing he was knowledgeable enough to handle it, but was wrong. There are biblical references such as in Samuel1 and Chronicles1 that talk of a guy coming in from the battlefield where the ark was just used, his clothes torn and dust on his head. My interpretation is that people were vaporized with a death ray coming from the ark, which sounds not unlike Spielberg’s death ray in War of the World’s, and being Jewish, Spielberg was probably influenced by this “torn clothes and dusty” description in the old testament. In the book of Samuel, the ark is captured and taken to Dagon’s temple, and Dagon was found the next morning near the ark with its head and hands blown off, its body remained. Also, people around the vicinity were afflicted with tumors. This sounds like it was radioactive. In Raiders, the powdery material found inside the ark could’ve been so radioactive, it gave radioactive burns and melted faces off. For more recent and ground-breaking views and discoveries about other ancient Egyptian technology harnessing the energy of the earth, see Carmen Boulter’s excellent epic documentary The Egypt Code.

The Sankara stones of the Temple of Doom, I don't know too much about. The replica props have a hidden diamond inside one broken version, but I haven't researched more on that. Generally speaking, the ritualistic cults and ancient civilizations who practiced sacrifice share a common blood theme. Fear produced chemicals (endorphins?) in the blood, so when you drink it, you get a high. In general, rituals and chanting supposedly creates a vibrational energy in the air to conjure and bring about spirits and things from possibly inter-dimensions, good or bad (hmm, sounds like the church, eh eh...). This may tie in with Kingdom of the Crystal Skull, which has an Aztec/Mayan-looking culture worshiping inter-dimensional beings or gods.

The holy grail legend Parsifal and antisemitic Richard Wagner's music were favorites of Hitler. Last Crusade deals with the search for the holy grail. The Nazis saw themselves as “knightly,” talked about teutonic knights, knights of the round table. Heinrich Himmler’s Wewelsburg Castle was also called Camelot, and it even had a Grail room. He believed himself to be a king in a past life. He dealt with seers and fortune tellers and had a library of books on withcraft. The Ahnenerbe expedition ranged from the Canary Islands to search for Atlantis, Iran to search for evidence of Aryan kings, elongated skulls in Venezuela belonging to possibly Atlantians, grail hunting in Iceland, to searching for the Aryan race Tibet (although, personally I have no idea how Asian people resemble Aryans). The narrator of Hitler’s Search for the Holy Grail has some good closing remarks, “…it would be easy to dismiss...the scholars of the Ahnenerbe as a lunatic fringe, but that’s not how they were seen by the allies officers who interrogated them (at the Nuremberg trials). Their report ends by saying this, ‘It cannot be too strongly emphasized that this was not a crackpot organization. These were men of the highest caliber. Professors from the leading universities. Men of the caliber of the atom splitters and the V-bomb designers, engaged in a project to rewrite the past in order to influence the future course of history.” Interestingly, the doc also says most of the Ahnenerbe scholars and archaeologists went on with their careers after the war and became heads of departments of new institutions.

Kingdom of the Crystal Skull deals with the idea of ancient aliens. Normally mainstream media like the History Channel does not entertain alternative researchers, historians, and archaeological findings and anomalous evidence, but things are changing; recently they’ve produced the Ancient Aliens series, which feature the theory and evidence that ancient human civilizations were visited by beings from “the heavens” with vastly superior technology -- extra-terrestrials. This is the crux of 2001: A Space Odyssey (which I hope to deconstruct later). When ancient civilizations talked about astrology, sun-worship, godly powers, stars as guides, beings from heaven, they might as well be talking about aliens. Going further in the research, that would be even too far-out to go into right now, it would be more accurate to call them inter-dimensional beings or entities, as the Harold Oxley character does. This is, from what my research shows, albeit separately but one and the same, what the illuminati/freemasonry and all the spin-off secret societies are really about -- hidden knowledge of the universe and mankind's true history. The intiates of ancient mystery schools took lifetimes to learn this stuff because there's a lot to it. Perhaps, what happened to Cate Blanchett’s character is that her primitive brain wasn’t ready for the information overload, like a overheated computer.

Key figures of ancient alien theory are Erik von Daniken and Zacharia Sitchin. It does relate to illuminati bloodlines and therefore Nazi aryan beliefs, and the "bad guys" in this movie could probably have fit better as Nazis. Maybe involving the Nazi Bell project. Many US government secret black project whistleblowers, which can be heard on shows like Coast to Coast AM and seen on Project Camelot and Avalon’s Youtube channels, allude to the Roswell incident as a key moment where the US had captured a crashed craft, and ever since then has back-engineered that alien technology, spurring on the unusually accelerated scientific and technological growth of the 20th century. The household technological advances we enjoy today were rooted in military projects. The whistleblowers go into amazing depth describing the physics, technology, tests, experiments and experiences. They also go into the similarities with Tesla technology and the importance of it today because what we're talking about free energy; possibly breaking the world's "dependence" on oil.

THX 1138
Lucas expanded his college short film into this 1971 feature. This is a cautionary sci-fi tale about a world of technology, surveillance, physical and emotional suppression, and the hero‘s struggle to escape it. It has been compared the key dystopian works of 1984 and A Brave New World. A wave of other films like The Matrix, Brazil, and Dark City also involve this theme of waking up to learn your world and society is controlled, manipulated, suppressed, oppressed, and the struggle to break out of that system.

On the THX1138 director’s cut dvd, in the documentary “A Legacy of Filmmakers: The Early Years of American Zoetrope,” Lucas recalls that at Zoetrope “everyone was writing their scripts, everyone was hanging at the pool table drinking cappuccinos, and waxing philosophically about the new world order and everything…” From this quote and others, I believe that the American Zoetrope circle of filmmakers (Lucas, Milius, Coppola, etc.) were all over this subject of the new world order. It’s displayed in their films, to one degree or another (I plan on writing about Coppola and Milius later on as well). In the very briefest of explanations, the new world order refers to the secret agenda by global elitists over the ages to eventually create a one world government. With the idea of a pyramidal corporate hierarchy structure that's compartmentalized, it's not hard to grasp. Crucial elements include the IMF, World Bank, EU and UN. The UN’s agency UNESCO talks about things like the New International Economic Order, the New World Information and Communication Order, and Many Voices One World. Julian Huxley, brother of Aldous, was the first Director-General of UNESCO and wrote UNESCO: Its Purpose and Its Philosophy, which aims “to help the emergence of a single world culture with its own philosophy and background of ideas and with its own broad purpose,” and talks of “world unification,” reconciling things like “individualism vs. collectivism, capitalism vs. communism, Christianity vs. Marxism, east and west” and just plain “eschew dogma” and it's written all with a wonderful philanthropic utopian tone. UNESCO would educate the world to function as a world society by using education and mass media.

“And it seems to me perfectly in the cards that there will be within the next generation or so a pharmacological method of making people love their servitude, and producing…a kind of painless concentration camp for entire societies, so that people will in fact have their liberties taken away from them but will rather enjoy it, because they will be distracted from any desire to rebel by propaganda, brainwashing, or brainwashing enhanced by pharmacological methods.” This describes THX1138 pretty well, but it’s Aldous Huxley (author of the 1932 novel Brave New World) talking about the real world in a UC Berkeley interview in 1962. Also, Julian writes, “taking the techniques of persuasion and information and true propaganda that we have learnt to apply nationally in war, and deliberately bending them to be the international tasks of peace, if necessary utilizing them - as Lenin envisaged - to overcome the resistance of millions to desirable change.” He goes on to push “mass philosophy, a mass creed” by using drama, art, media and mass communication. Communists even called it comparable to communism. So, yeah, there was a backlash against this, but W. Bush brought us back in it.

Aldous’ grandfather biologist Thomas Huxley was called “Darwin’s bulldog” because he heavily promoted the theory of natural selection. And eugenicists believe in selective breeding to improve the human race. Unnatural selection, if you ask me. Julian was head of the British Eugenics Society and like other eugenicists, made comments that seemed to view the lower-class as genetically inferior, shouldn’t have easy access to medical care and should even be sterilized. You can see how this ties in with illuminati/secret society beliefs (Aldous was in the Vedanta society and loved the drugs) in the idea of bloodline racial superiority -- it justifies things in their eyes. Writing with philanthropic well-wishing utopian language, they call for a controlled, depopulated, conditioned, drugged-up, obedient, mindless slave, collective society to benefit mankind. This really describes the world of THX1138. Visually the point is driven home as Lucas had everyone shaved and bald, making them androgynous and stripping them of their individuality.

Was Brave New World a cautionary tale, or a blueprint for the agenda? What are the real-world signs today? They push the vaccines like crazy, but many people today are refusing the vaccines with concern regarding the harmful effects it has caused in certain people. People are refusing GMO foods they push, as we see the rise in popularity in organic food. Protests are rising against additives like fluoride in the tap water and chemtrails in the sky. Every other commercial being an anti-depressant SSRI drug or erection pill gives big pharma big business. They, as corporations do, have high influence in politics, lobbying and writing the bills and legislation. Nazis, the US and CIA have done tests and has released chemicals and diseases on its own citizens and people around the world for years. And we wonder why there’s an increase in autism, cancer, and other diseases...

To quote Thomas Jefferson, “If the people let government decide what foods they eat and what medicines they take, their bodies will soon be in a sorry a state as are the souls of those who live under tyranny.” Well, we have the Food Safety Modernization Act now, which increases the policing of food. Just saying. In THX1138, LUH dares to refuse the mandatory drugging, which awakens feelings, gets her soul back, and gets her partner THX to feel feelings for the first time also.

One of the most important lines in the movie is one of the subtlest, but I think should be emphasized. THX‘s hologram dude says, “How shall the new environment be programmed? It all happened so slowly that…most men failed to realize that anything had happened at all.” This explains how people consent to change, or simply don't care. Over time, slowly, people adapt with societal changes and don‘t notice because it happens over generations. Soviet defector Yuri Bezmenov, explains that by ideological subversion and psychological warfare, the aim is for “demoralization. It takes between 15-20 years to demoralize a nation…this is the minimum number of years it takes to educate one generation of students in the country of your enemy. Expose to the ideology of the enemy. In other words Marxists, Leninism ideology is being pumped into the soft heads of at least 3 generations of American students.” And countries around the world are systematically taken over by stealthy infiltration of government by banks and corporations, over generations, so that the new generation is unaware or less aware of what legislation changes or events happened in the previous generation to get a government to be at a certain point. In THX1138, people are living underground for so long, perhaps from a WW3 nuclear fall-out, that generations it seems have never seen the sun or the outside world. Towards the end of the film, as THX gets closer to the surface, there are mutated humans; “shell dwellers.”

In the THX1138 commentary, Walter Murch explains that it’s a consumerist society where people buy things they don’t need, just to “buy things.” THX buys a red “dendrite” cube, goes home and puts it in a bin to be recycled into another dendrite. Maybe the action pacifies their needs and wants, while also feeding the corporate monster. The corporations become so big, they basically run governments. The new world order goal has been described as a one world corporate-ocracy, by author Daniel Estulin. For more on the development of this consumerist society watch documentary The Century of the Self, which deals with Edward Bernays, nephew of Sigmund Freud, and his role in advising both government and advertising, using psychological techniques in public relations, propaganda, etc.

The world on THX1138 is a police state; cold and faceless, but with a strange pleasant voice, "What's wrong?". Their words are helpful and “for your own good” in feeling. It resembles the tone of UNESCO, written about earlier. It strangely resembles everything that comes out of the Homeland Security and the TSA. They have wallmart and hotel PSAs. They want to deploy FAST , VIPER teams, portable watchtowers and portable body scanners. Obama renewed the main parts of the USAPATRIOT act. Surveillance is also a key issue in THX1138, where a control room had tabs on everyone’s whereabouts and bio-functions. The RFID microchip was on the table for awhile, talked a lot about by Katherine Albrecht and seen in IBM RFID chip commercials, and now they have eye-scans and bio-metric scans. The UK and USA are one of the top surveilled societies, not because of crime or terrorism, but because it keeps you scared and submissive. DARPA and the CIA created internet. Internet and media corporations are merging left and right. Facebook and GOOGLE, having worked with governments, constantly brag about knowing you so well, where you are, and what you‘re doing. Watch Frontline’s Spying on the Home Front. Google’s motto is “Don’t be evil.” Hm, well, I say evil is subjective with corporations and governments.

On a lighter note, THX1138 character manages to escape by courage and determination, climbs out and sees the glorious sun and birds. He also is let go by the cops because the corporate police state overran their budget in chasing him. Maybe they do have a weakness. Maybe they do have limits to their power. But it only takes one to start the revolution. Lucas: "The film is about a hero that lives in an anthill and dares to go outside, to do something different, to move away from the status quo."

Deconstructing the Movies of George Lucas: part 3

STAR WARS CONTINUED
Sigh...Yeah, yeah, I'm still writing about Star Wars. Get over it.

DESIGN
Lucas: “Color plays an extremely important part in all these films. Red signifying evil, the red blood, the red devil, the red as an accent color for the bad guys. The bad guys mostly exist in a black and white world. The good guys live in an organic world, which is either browns, light browns, tans, or greens, with the blue sky and stuff…which has to do with that…philosophical feeling of a world of absolutes, a mechanical world where things are rigid and absolute, they’re black and white, as opposed to the organic world where it’s more natural…”

On the emperor’s throne room, Lucas said, “Part of this stuff…the window looks like a web…which it does in all of the Sith and Imperial stuff…you’ll see it in Darth Vader’s…tie fighters…it’s a motif we carry through for the bad guys…and he is that spider luring the flies into his web, cause he’s the plotter, he’s the devious one."


HOPE: REBEL ALLIANCE GROWS
As with Luke ‘n friends and the Rebel Alliance, a rebellion can come from a small group of citizens taking up arms -- the Huns, American colonists, French peasants, Vietcong, etc. They’re scrappers, a motley crew or whoever they can find, but they have heart. I think the ideal way to rebel is to be nonviolent -- like Gandhi and MLK jr. organizing boycotts to hurt commerce, upsetting the system, considering that corporations run things. Today, many activist groups, like wearechange.org, make it a point to use non-violence. However, Star Wars’ action and violence is entertaining, I admit.


EWOKS TURN THE TIDE: PRIMITIVE VS. ADVANCED CIVILIZATIONS
“In this case the story is of a very primitive society, apparently weak society, who is able to overcome a very technological society.” Lucas says in the episode 6 commentary track. “This film was written during the Vietnam War where small group of ill-equipped people were able to overcome a mighty power. It’s not a new idea. Attila the Hun was able to overrun the Roman empire. The American colonies were able to overrun the British. And it’s always the same story. The Roman empire had huge mechanical advantage and training advantage over the Huns, but the Huns were still able to overwhelm them with enthusiasm and their humanist and their belief in what they were doing. And that was the main theme for the overall downfall of the Empire. It was basically overcome by humanity…in the form of cute little teddy bears.”


THE FORCE
Ob-Wan explains, “The Force is what gives a Jedi his power. It’s an energy field created by all living things. It surrounds us, penetrates us, it binds the galaxy together…” and later “…let go your conscious self and act on instinct…Your eyes can deceive you. Don’t trust them….Stretch out with your feelings.”

Is the Force a science-based thing or faith-based thing? I say yes. It’s both.

SCIENCE
Lucas has said his midi-chlorian idea is based mitochondria, a symbiotic organism living with cells, necessary for things like cell-division -- being a metaphor that for all life in the universe and/or a society to get along, they have to work together, learn to co-exist in balance, peacefully. We need to cooperate, depend on each other, help each other, for “mutual advantage.” The bigger picture, the deeper science I relate the Force to is also quantum theory which, I admit am not an expert on, is said to be close to coming up with a theory for explaining everything. It would explain the basic building block of everything, an energy particle, being both a wave and a particle, explain time/space, explain the soul, explain the cyclical vortex nature of the universe, that it’s a giant machine made intelligently -- explaining god. Math can explain that there is a god. Nassim Haramein is a key figure. Many theoretical physicists are spiritual. Stuart Hameroff talks about quantum physics and consciousness.

Considering that matter is not solid, the basic building blocks are energy particles vibrating at different frequencies. Yoda says, “Its energy surrounds us….and binds us. Luminous beings are we…not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you--Here, between you, me…the tree, the rock, everywhere! Yes, even between the land and the ship.”











FAITH
Yoda,”You must unlearn what you have learned…”

Today, many people probably love Star Wars because they say the Force idea represents their religion. I would say, yeah, it's all that in a way, but that’s not even the half of it. Before there was what we think of as the modern day religions, like the judeo-christian-islamic stuff (really a construct and tool of politics and power), before and after the era of Jesus, there were the mystery religions or mystery schools around the world. Author John Lash says, “the initiates of mysteries, who were truly educators, they taught people to read and write, the sciences, the arts, they founded the great universities and libraries of the ancient world…the Mysteries were more like a collegiate or educational system; this is how they operated…it was through that they encountered the organic light, that they were able to realize their own godlike potential, that is the divine intelligence in us, in everywhere in nature, it’s in the snails, it’s in the clouds, but it’s in us in a particular way…”

Author Tricia McCannon (1,2,3) talks about how teenage Jesus traveled around the world, learning the mystery teachings from shamans, priests, the Druids, the Essenes, the Brahmins, the Magi and the Egyptians; traveling from England to Tibet. Other researchers have talked about the similarity of Jesus' transfiguration to other certain famous figures ( lamas, Buddha) having also attained similar enlightened, light-being states, certain DNA being activated, the third eye opening up, deification, apotheosis, or a god-like state, where the temporary physical body achieves a vibrational state to become a light being, which ties into quantum energy theory. It could be as literal as that -- just like when Yoda or Obi-Wan dies (“If you strike me down I shall become more powerful than you can possibly imagine.”) and physically disappears to become light-beings, pure energy. Lucas describes it as “joining the Force at will” and “being able to retain your personality, your individuality once you’ve gone over to the other side.” Individual consciousness remains, yet merges with the one-consciousness. Or it could be as much as about achieving other powers according to one‘s unique divine potential, whatever that may mean. Again, I’m not the expert to rely on to explain it the best. Other researchers like William Henry talk about this and use ancient icons and art depicting Jesus as examples of the energy halos and/or stargates commonly depicted surrounding him. Mystic and freemason Manly P. Hall wrote about Jesus traveling the world, learning the mysteries, and other figures being similar to Jesus as well. It all does have aspects of freemasonry/illuminati all over it; as The Great Work seems to be about the secret of this alchemy, this transfiguration of oneself; a secret they'd like to keep for themselves to keep you subordinate, and attached to this material world, possibly. "The Great Work is, before all things, the creation of man by himself, that is to say, the full and entire conquest of his faculties and his future; it is especially the perfect emancipation of his will, assuring him... full power over the Universal Magical Agent," wrote occultist and influential mason Eliphas Levi. "...there exists in nature a force...by means of which a single man, who knows how to adapt and direct it, might upset and alter the face of the world. This force was known to the ancients; it consists in a universal agent having equilibrium for its supreme law, while its direction is concerned immediately with the great arcanum of transcendental magic...This agent...is precisely that which the adepts of the middle ages denominated the first matter of the Great Work. The Gnostics represented it as the fiery body of the Holy Spirit; it was the object of adoration in the secret rites of the Sabbath and the Temple, under the hieroglyphic figure of Baphomet of the Androgyne of Mendes." So...I'm sure all this could be taken with a grain of salt, as masons/illuminati are master deceivers. Meaning, consider the history of the mystery schools existing in the ancient world, then being bullied almost out of existence by the Romans and Constantine, and then things like christianity co-opting of those pagan practices in a new propaganda -- likewise has the illuminati co-opted the mystery religions?

Author on the mysteries John Lash separates what the original mystery schools were, from what people claim the illuminati believe. "The claim of deification, that is, the turning of a human being into a god, or in the same sense, achieving a superhuman state...or the realization of some divine empowerment -- that is simply not the case, in the sense that initiation in the mysteries would have fostered in people a sense of being superhuman or godlike and therefore superior to all other people. Not at all. The experience of the initiation in the mysteries allowed those who underwent it to discover their own hidden powers, especially the hidden power of the divine intelligence...The elevation of human consciousness in the mysteries, the heightened awareness, was not an inflation of the ego to a god-like state. It was the discovery of one's divine intelligence. And that germ of divine intelligence exists in everyone." In other words, the illuminati elitist sociopathic spin on occultism/the mysteries to mean you can create supermen, like Hitler's idea, should be separated from the original benign occultists who see the mysteries as the discovery of one's own divine potential. Personally, I still don't know what that specifically means, but maybe that is precisely the point. Everyone needs to find their own answers and think for themselves.

On the strange cave scene in episode 5, Lucas says, “Part of going into the tree is learning about the Force, learning about the fact that the Force is within you, and at the same time you create your own bad vibes. So, if you think about badly things or if you act badly or you bring fear into a situation, you’re gonna have to defend yourself or you’re gonna have to suffer the consequences of that. In this particular case, he takes his sword in with him, which means he’s going to have combat. If he didn’t, he wouldn’t. He’s creating this situation in his mind because on a larger level what caused Darth Vader to become Darth Vader is the same thing that makes Luke bring that sword in with him. …He has the capacity to become Darth Vader simply by using hate and fear and using weapons and opposed to using compassion, caring, and kindness.”

Spiritual leaders today talk about raising your positive energy vibrations; by meditation, eating good, compassion, helping the world, do positive things as such, and thus, positive things will come to your life -- "living with intention." Negative thoughts and negative energies manifest negative situations and things for you. There’s positive and negative energy, a polarity, a light and dark side to this force.

Irvin Kershner says, “Luke is gonna have to face himself, his fears. And when he (Yoda) tells him, ‘you don’t need the guns, you don’t need all that stuff…uh-uh, he’s still a weak man, he still needs guns, and sabers. That shows that he’s still weak. Anybody that needs a gun is weak.”

On the scene where Luke is upside down, levitating rocks, Lucas says, “Ultimately it comes down to the power of positive thinking, or your belief system. If you believe in something, then it will work. If you don’t, it won’t. And part of getting something done in your life is to believe you can do it. A lot of these scenes are very old in nature and common wisdom, told in all kinds of stories. And one of them is believe in yourself, and believe in what you’re doing. People used to pass on this kind of information to the younger generation.”

Luke, “I don’t believe it.”
Yoda, “That is why you fail.”

Well, powers like ESP are proven to be important enough to have millions of dollars of tax payer money in government projects, like the Stargate Project, which used things like remote viewing in the cold war era. A key figure being Joseph McMoneagle. Through tests like Project Talent, the government sought out kids with special abilities and recruited them. Duncan O’Finioan talks about being recruited for especially being “half-Irish and half-Cherokee -- the two races (Celts and Indians) of people who have the highest number of children born with PSI or ESP abilities.” Perhaps there is something to the belief in the bloodlines. “The Force is strong in my family,” Luke says. The Jedi’s use blood tests to determine the midi-chlorian count in an individual. Well, the illuminati elitists believe blood is important That’s why royalty inter-marry. They’re a bunch of inbreds. Yet, however different races are biologically different, the issue of inferior or superior is a another can of worms.

LAST SCENE IN EPISODE 4
The medal scene at the end of A New Hope does evoke the feeling of the end of the Nazi’s Triumph of the Will, with the symmetrical endless lines of troops and ceremony and Albert Speer-ish backdrop. Knowing what I know now, I lean toward interpreting that to mean a warning to us that the new republic could very well turn corrupt again -- it has happened before, not too long ago and far away -- if it isn‘t already. Learn from history’s mistakes, learn to see the signs corruption and signs of a dictatorship, learn how a good ideal republic behaves.

Here is radio host Alex Jones explaining Star Wars almost exactly as I explained it. (1)
