I’ve always found it a bit strange how we talk about the Death Stars mostly as giant weapons, but rarely stop to think about the people who were actually on board when they blew up. Recently, I went down a rabbit hole looking into the official numbers, and the scale of the loss is pretty …

When I first saw The Duel from Star Wars: Visions, I couldn’t stop thinking about that spinning lightsaber umbrella. It looked absolutely wild. But the cool part is—it’s not just there to look flashy. The novel Ronin by Emma Candon actually explains how this thing works, and it’s way more clever than I expected. It’s …
If you’ve watched Revenge of the Sith or The Clone Wars, you probably remember that unmistakable sound – General Grievous’s harsh, mechanical cough. It’s one of his defining traits, and it always adds this eerie, unsettling layer to his already terrifying presence. But why exactly does he cough like that? It turns out, there’s more …
If you’ve ever watched Star Wars: The Clone Wars or Revenge of the Sith, you might have wondered: why didn’t General Grievous use red lightsabers? After all, he worked for the Sith and fought Jedi all the time. You’d expect him to have red blades, right? Well, it turns out there’s a very specific reason—and …
If you’ve looked at Boba Fett’s armor closely, you’ve probably noticed that braid hanging over his right shoulder. I used to wonder about it myself — what was it? Some random decoration? A personal memento? Turns out, it’s neither of those things. The real story behind that braid is much clearer now, thanks to canon …

But when I started looking deeper into their stories, I realized some of them actually respected each other. And I don’t just mean grudging respect in battle – I’m talking about real acknowledgment of each other’s strength, …
The Rebels blow up the Death Star, then just… hang out on Yavin 4? They fix R2, hold a whole ceremony, and no one from the Empire shows up? That used to confuse me, but the more I looked into it, the more the whole thing made sense. Here’s what I found when I broke …
The Battle of Geonosis always felt off to me. I mean, it was basically a war in Count Dooku’s own backyard. Geonosis was where the Separatists had their summit, and it was loaded with droid factories. He could’ve flooded the battlefield with reinforcements if he really wanted to. But he didn’t. And that’s what made …
So I was rewatching the Disorder trailer from Star Wars: The Old Republic the other day, and I couldn’t stop thinking about that Sith with the cybernetic arm and leg. He shows up, looks like he’s about to do something major, then gets wrecked in a lightsaber fight and finished off by Darth Malgus. That …
Ryan Reynolds isn’t shy about pushing boundaries, and this time, he’s aiming for a galaxy far, far away. On a recent episode of The Box Office podcast, the Deadpool star revealed something unexpected: he pitched an R-rated Star Wars movie to Disney. But before anyone jumps to conclusions—no, he doesn’t want to be in it. …
