Since then, this movie has been a fan favorite, appreciated by multiple generations, and often referred to as a “cult classic.” The film has many parallels to Star Wars that capture our attention, including the characters, plot, and themes. Yet, Spaceballs also contains many …

I just rewatched this clip from Pop Culture Quest and man – it’s such a cool moment. Mark Hamill gets handed this box during the show, no build-up, no heads-up. He opens it up, sees the lightsaber inside, and at first, he totally thinks it’s a replica. You can hear him go, “Oh, a replica …
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 …
There’s this one Clone Wars story I keep thinking about because it’s so different from the usual. It’s about a B1 battle droid – yeah, the “Roger Roger” kind – but this one didn’t follow the script. His name was B1-0516, but Obi-Wan called him Bats. And the wild part? This actually happened in Star …
There’s a moment buried in a 2019 Marvel comic that completely changed how I think about Luke Skywalker’s place in the Star Wars saga.

For many fans, the day George Lucas sold Star Wars to Disney in 2012 felt like the end of an era. After decades as the creator and guiding hand behind one of the most beloved franchises in cinema, Lucas shocked the world by stepping away from his galaxy far, far away. Over the years, he’s …
I’ve gone down a lot of rabbit holes when it comes to messed-up Star Wars characters, but none of them come close to Doctor Cornelius Evazan. This guy wasn’t some Sith or warlord. He was just a surgeon – at least, that’s how it started. But what he did later? It made both the Rebellion …
So there’s this story in Legends that I can’t stop thinking about – because it’s one of the few times someone actually trolled Darth Vader… and then Vader trolled them right back even harder. The guy’s name? Lieutenant Garil Dox. And trust me, it didn’t end well for him. Things Kept Going Wrong Right after …
After nearly five decades of wielding a lightsaber and inspiring generations of fans, Mark Hamill has made it crystal clear: his journey as Luke Skywalker is officially over. In a recent interview that’s sending shockwaves through the Star Wars community, the 73-year-old actor definitively closed the door on any future appearances in the galaxy far, …
