Let’s settle a debate: which helmet had better visibility—Stormtrooper helmets or Phase 2 Clone Trooper helmets? We’ve all seen the memes about Stormtroopers missing their shots, but Rex himself, in Rebels, called out how awful Stormtrooper helmets are to aim with. Add Luke’s “I can’t see a thing in this helmet” line, and it’s clear …

If you’ve ever wondered who designed the Imperial Stormtrooper armor, I’ve got the quick answer for you. It was a team effort by George Lucas, Ralph McQuarrie, John Mollo, and sculptors Liz Moore (helmet) and Brian Muir (body armor) that brought the armor to life for the Original Trilogy. But listing names seems like it …

To be honest, I’m not a big fan of Disney Star Wars. The new trilogy just didn’t feel right to me—it’s like Star Wars lost what made it special. But not everything Disney has done is bad. They’ve introduced some cool new characters, and one of the best additions has to be the Imperial Death …

I’ve always enjoyed rewatching Star Wars movies because every time I do, I catch some details I missed before. Last night, I decided to revisit A New Hope, and sure enough, I spotted something hilarious. Did you know some stormtroopers have gaffer tape wrapped around their armor? Gaffer tape!

One of my friends said, “Man, if Mace had brought a different trio, Palpatine wouldn’t have stood a chance.” That comment stuck with me. What if Mace had picked a stronger backup team? So, I started thinking—if I could replace those three Jedi, who would I choose? Here are my top three picks for Jedi …

We all know Darth Vader doesn’t need much of a reason to kill someone. From crushing throats to slashing lightsabers, the guy’s got a flair for dramatic overreactions. But sometimes, the reasons behind his rage are so absurd, you can’t help but wonder: was it really worth it? And honestly, some of them are so …

Last weekend, my friend and I found ourselves in a heated Star Wars debate. What started as a fun chat took a turn when he confidently claimed that Din Djarin’s Razor Crest was far superior to Boba Fett’s Slave I. As a die-hard Boba Fett fan, I couldn’t just let that slide. In my opinion, …

The first time I saw Han Solo get frozen in The Empire Strikes Back, I thought, “Wow, this must be some rare, experimental tech.” But then The Mandalorian came along and showed carbon freezing as a pretty standard way to transport prisoners. So now I can’t help but wonder—did Han’s freezing in Cloud City set …

In a recent interview on the Happy Sad Confused podcast, Dave Filoni, Lucasfilm’s Chief Creative Officer, shared his thoughts on the possibility of an R-rated Star Wars project. “Sure, I mean, I don’t know. I think it’s interesting,” Filoni said when asked about the idea. However, he emphasized the importance of quality over novelty. “The …

We all know Tatooine is rough on its people—two suns, endless sand, and no escape from the heat. But Cobb Vanth has me curious. He’s got that sun-scorched, hardened vibe, but is that just Tatooine doing its thing? Here’s what we can piece together about his true age. Decoding Cobb Vanth’s True Age in Tatooine’s …

After watching the Ahsoka series, I was thrilled by the return of iconic characters like Anakin Skywalker and the cameo of Captain Rex during the Siege of Mandalore. However, another character piqued my interest—Marrok, whose enigmatic presence left me intrigued. In his duel with Ahsoka, Marrok’s defeat was marked by an unusual occurrence: upon being …
