I was scrolling through Reddit the other day and came across this post on r/StarWars: “Why don’t all droids just speak in a language that’s easily understood? You’d think that’d be important if you’re supposed to communicate with them.” The OP has a great point. In Star Wars, some droids speak Galactic Basic like it’s …

There are some Star Wars stories so wild you have to read them twice just to believe they’re real. This is one of them. In the pages of Star Wars Tales #19, a non-canon comic titled “Into the Great Unknown” gave fans one of the most unexpected crossovers in sci-fi history — one that brought …
Last Friday, me and my friends did a Star Wars Original Trilogy marathon. By the end of Return of the Jedi, one of them casually said, “You know, Vader’s biggest weakness is facing people who still see him as Anakin. Or anytime Vader was faced with Anakin’s past, he wasn’t completely there.” At first, I …
Mark Hamill and his wife Marilou York had their first son while filming The Empire Strikes Back. Reportedly, his son arrived in the late hours of the morning, and Mark had to race to the set for filming. The stress of his son’s birth and lack of sleep could have played into a pivotal scene …
Alright, I just came across a question that’s probably crossed every Star Wars fan’s mind at some point—what are those two dome-shaped structures on top of Imperial Star Destroyers? You know the ones I mean—those twin orbs perched above the command tower, right behind the bridge. They’re in almost every Star Destroyer shot, but no …
The moment when Luke defeats his father aboard the second Death Star is one of the most debated scenes in Star Wars. Some fans believe Luke tapped into the dark side to overpower Vader—others argue he was still walking the line without fully giving in. But there’s another question that often gets overlooked: right after …
I just came across an interesting discussion on Reddit: Was the Anakin we saw in the World Between Worlds with Ahsoka the real Anakin Skywalker, or just a vision made by the Force? Some people suggested it was all in Ahsoka’s mind, that she conjured a memory or Force-echo to guide her. Others argued that …
The other day, I was going down a rabbit hole about the clone army and how they were created. We all know Jango Fett was the genetic template for the Grand Army of the Republic—but I never really stopped to think about why him, specifically. Out of everyone in the galaxy, why did Count Dooku …
I was rewatching some Star Wars scenes the other day and noticed something: Why do we keep seeing regular stormtroopers thrown into battles alongside super-specific units like snowtroopers or shore troopers—even when the environment clearly favors one over the other? Stormtroopers Are the Backbone While Specialist Troopers Just Support The Galactic Empire’s military structure treats …
Ever since The Force Awakens introduced Supreme Leader Snoke, fans expected him to be the next big bad of the trilogy—a shadowy figure pulling strings from the dark, maybe even tied to Palpatine somehow. But then The Last Jedi happened… and Kylo Ren sliced him in half before we ever really learned who he was. …
