If Fives Had to Go Bald to Get the Chip Out of His Head, Why When the Bad Batch Removed Their Chips, Their Hair Was Still Intact?

A recent fan conspiracy theory about Season 2 of Andor posits that the Empire really didn’t need Kalkite. Instead, Galen Erso devised this scheme to distract and delay the construction of the Death Star. This theory has merits and could very well have been planted by Erso. It is also problematic and fitting for this …

In the final season of The Clone Wars, Darth Maul revealed Palpatine’s plan to Ahsoka. We saw this happen in “The Phantom Apprentice” episode when Ahsoka asked Maul about why he was fixated on Anakin. In turn, Maul indicated how Anakin was central to Sidious’s plot to overthrow the Jedi and Republic. Aghast, Ahsoka called …

Let’s be honest — recasting in any franchise is risky. Fans get attached, and stepping into the shoes of iconic characters isn’t easy. But Star Wars has had some surprising wins when it comes to recasts. Some of them are so good, they feel like the character was never played by anyone else. Here are …

You’d think that if someone sat on the Jedi High Council for years—someone with two brains, four arms, and some of the most advanced mental Force abilities we’ve seen—we’d at least get a proper send-off. But that’s not what happened with Jedi Master Yarael Poof. If you’ve ever rewatched Attack of the Clones and noticed …

I used to think the droids just shot clones on sight. After all, clones were bred to fight, and the Separatists had endless droid armies. But the more I watched and read, the more I noticed moments where clones were taken alive—and it wasn’t just random. There were some smart, even strategic reasons for doing …

So here’s the latest: Sebastian Stan’s own stunt double just confirmed that Mark Hamill personally wants him to play Luke Skywalker. Yeah, seriously. In a recent interview on Cantina Talk, John Nania—Stan’s double—said Hamill’s not just aware of the fan casting, he’s actually talked to Sebastian about it. The way Nania described it, Hamill told …

As Star Wars fans, we all understand how every character brings their own style to the way they wield a lightsaber. We’ve seen Count Dooku’s elegant one-handed fencing stance, Anakin’s aggressive and relentless strikes, and Obi-Wan’s careful, defensive form that wears opponents down. But then there’s Starkiller from The Force Unleashed — and he’s on …

This is one of those Star Wars questions that pops up all the time — and for good reason. The first Death Star took something like 20 years to build, and then a few years later in Return of the Jedi, the Empire already has another one nearly ready to fire. How’d they pull that …

If you take a closer look at Emperor Palpatine’s inner circle, you’ll notice something odd: the most powerful Sith Lord in the galaxy, a master of the dark side, is always surrounded by non-Force-sensitive guards.  Whether it’s the crimson Royal Guard standing silently at his side or the elite Death Troopers enforcing his will, Palpatine …

Andor concluded its second and final season on May 13, 2025, delivering a gripping finale that left fans reflecting on its bold storytelling and mature themes. As someone who just finished watching, I was honestly blown away by how different this series felt compared to traditional Star Wars. Andor goes deep into the complexities of …
