Longtime Star Wars fans know that Harrison Ford is Han Solo, but even the galaxy’s coolest smuggler had to figure out the controls of the Millennium Falcon at some point. And according to Ford himself, that moment didn’t go quite as you’d expect. “You Just Fly It” — Harrison Ford’s First Day Inside the Falcon …
In Return of the Jedi, there’s a quiet but powerful moment just before the Rebels head out for the Battle of Endor. The room is alive with movement—soldiers preparing, officers locked in strategy—but in the middle of it all, Leia senses something different.

Look, I get it, some fans love seeing their favorite characters survive past the Clone Wars, especially when they get more development later on. But there’s something to be said for letting a story end where it hits hardest. And in the case of The Clone Wars, two characters in particular should have died before …
Moff Gideon’s actions throughout The Mandalorian series might seem like those of a man obsessed with Mandalorians, but that’s not quite accurate.

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.
