So George Lucas sold out to the Mouse, and Star Wars will never be the same. Whether you find that good or bad depends on what you expect from the Star Wars universe. I tend to be a bit more critical of these four films, so feel free to disagree with my take on their stories and themes.
(PS: If you haven’t watched Disney’s Star Wars movies, you may want to scamper off and do so, because you’ll find some spoilers in the post. Reader beware!)

Luke Skywalker does farm chores for his Uncle Owen on Tatooine. The Pevensie children begin their Narnian adventure in the quiet old house of Professor Kirke. Harry Potter starts out in a cookie cutter house on Privet Drive.
That is to say, every adventure begins in an Ordinary World.
