The fall of the Jedi wasn’t just about soldiers turning their blasters on them. The hate that spread across the galaxy had been building for a long time, and by the time Order 66 hit, people were ready to believe the worst. So, how did the Order go from respected peacekeepers to villains in the …

I still remember the first time I saw that duel on screen—it felt like a turning point for Anakin, the first time he won a duel in the prequel. But later, when I read the ROTS novelization, I realized the fight wasn’t what I thought it was. The difference between page and film stunned me, …

I came across a Reddit thread where the OP asked if Darth Plagueis was sitting behind Palpatine during Queen Amidala’s speech in The Phantom Menace. That take spread in the comments, but it didn’t sit right. To clear it up, I went back to James Luceno’s novel Darth Plagueis and matched it with what we …

We’ve all seen Maul and Obi-Wan clash, first in the Prequels, then again in The Clone Wars, and finally in their brief but powerful duel in Rebels. But what I didn’t know until recently is that Obi-Wan actually took the time to reflect on Maul’s death afterward. In his personal diary, he wrote about that …

The Empire didn’t always blast every Rebel they found. When soldiers, leaders, or even droids were captured, their fate depended on their species, rank, and how valuable the Empire thought they were.

When people think about the Clone Wars, they usually picture the Republic as the “heroes” and the Separatists as the “villains.” After all, the movies and shows put us on the side of the Jedi and the clones. But when you take a closer look at what really happened, the story isn’t that simple. Many …

Came across a post asking why stormtroopers without snow gear were just chilling (literally) during cold missions. The thread blew up with Canadians and Alaskans chiming in, and honestly, their real-life stories make the comparison click. The Body Glove Underneath the plastoid plates, every stormtrooper wore a black body glove. This was a smart material …

With Padmé’s death at the end of Revenge of the Sith, it always felt like the Skywalker twins were robbed of something deeply human—the chance to truly know their mother. By the time of Return of the Jedi, Leia recalls faint impressions of Padmé, but Luke admits he remembers nothing at all. For him, his …

When you go back and rewatch the Original Trilogy, one thing really stands out. In A New Hope, Imperial officers don’t seem too worried about Darth Vader. Some even roll their eyes at his “sorcerer’s ways.” But by the time we get to The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi, the mood is …

We’ve seen Ahsoka a lot throughout The Clone Wars, and her look was always pretty consistent. Every episode, her facial markings and lekku patterns stayed the same—even in the Mortis arc, where she appears older in that vision, her lekku just grow longer but the pattern stays the same. But then Rebels comes around, and …
