When The Last Jedi came out, it flipped everything we thought we knew about Luke Skywalker on its head. Gone was the hopeful farm boy turned Jedi legend. In his place stood a broken man, hiding away from the galaxy and refusing to help, even as everything fell apart. For some fans, it was a …

When the Clone Wars movie dropped, a lot of fans (myself included) were caught off guard. Anakin Skywalker with a Padawan? Since when? We’d never heard about her in the movies, and suddenly this snippy teenager named Ahsoka Tano is calling him “Skyguy” like they’ve been teammates for years. But as the series unfolded, it …
Ever since playing Star Wars Jedi: Fallen Order, I couldn’t help but wonder, why didn’t Luke Skywalker pull a Cal Kestis on Hoth? You know what I’m talking about: hijacking an AT-AT, turning it around, and causing absolute chaos among the Imperial walkers. On paper, it seems like a perfect move. So why didn’t Luke …
We all remember the Throne-Room finale of A New Hope: trumpets blaring, rows of Rebel soldiers, and Leia handing out those shiny medals. But if Mon Mothma was the political heart of the Alliance, why isn’t she anywhere in that crowd shot? The Alliance Couldn’t Afford to Lose Its Political Heart Before anyone even heard …
Imagine you’re a post-Endor Jedi hopeful trying to build your first lightsaber. The sacred caverns of Ilum? Gone, hollowed out into Starkiller Base and then blown apart when Poe’s torpedoes lit the place up. The pilgrimage markets on Jedha? A smoking crater after the Empire’s “single-reactor test” torched the Holy City and chewed a hole …
If you’ve ever looked closely at Darth Vader’s red-bladed lightsaber, you might’ve noticed something a little strange—it looks a lot like Anakin Skywalker’s old Jedi weapon. Same grip shape, same emitter guard, even that signature boxy control switch on the hilt. Now, I know the first thing people will say is, “Well, duh, Vader is …
I kept seeing posts asking, “Why do Rebel pilots rock those amber-gold visors—are they just space-age sunglasses or do they actually do something?” So I pulled screen grabs, dug through reference guides, and even checked what the costume designers said back in ’76. Here’s the lowdown on what those Rebel visors really do—and yes, it’s …
You know that scene in A New Hope, Obi-Wan and Vader face off, a few quick swings, and then Ben just vanishes, leaving his lightsaber clattering to the floor? Every time I watch it, I end up wondering: what happened to that lightsaber after Vader walked away? It’s never brought up in the movies again, …
I’ve always thought the First Order didn’t need another Death Star. We already had two of those, and both got blown up. So when The Force Awakens dropped Starkiller Base, basically a Death Star on steroids, it kind of felt like recycled ideas with a bigger laser. But then The Last Jedi showed us The …
We’ve all seen characters like Ahsoka Tano and Starkiller rocking that iconic reverse grip on their lightsabers—and yeah, it looks undeniably cool. But have you ever stopped to wonder if there’s an actual tactical advantage to holding a lightsaber backward, or if it’s just a flashy combat style designed for cinematic flair? The Masters of …
