Back when The Force Awakens came out, everyone had the same question: who the hell is Supreme Leader Snoke? He showed up out of nowhere, dripping in dark side power, manipulating Ben Solo, and barking orders like some ancient Sith mastermind. The theories exploded—Darth Plagueis, a lost Sith lord, maybe even a clone of Palpatine …
When The Mandalorian first went into production, it wasn’t the massive Disney+ flagship we know today. It had a tighter budget compared to the Star Wars films, and the crew often had to get creative to pull off big scenes. One of the most unexpected challenges came during the filming of the Season 1 finale: …
We Star Wars fans know how central the Force is to the saga—the mystical energy, the lightsaber duels, the chosen heroes and fallen villains. It’s iconic. But with Andor, something remarkable happened. The show didn’t need Jedi mind tricks or lightsaber clashes to hold our attention. It didn’t rely on Force-wielders to show the weight …
Many fans have had issues with the sequels. Movie elements, such as the writing, strained plots, and uninteresting characters, are among the criticisms. We may also pinpoint JJ Abrams as the worst choice for director of The Force Awakens and The Rise of Skywalker, which set a tone for the other two films. Here are …
Commando droids were some of the most advanced and dangerous battle droids in the Clone Wars. Fast, smart, agile, and equipped with vibroswords and blasters—they could go toe-to-toe with clone troopers and even Jedi in the right situation. But for all their skills, they were still relatively easy to take down once you got past …
As we watch Rebels, we may have noticed differences from The Clone Wars. The artistic design of the show is distinct, including the look of the lightsabers. In Rebels, the lightsabers are much thinner than what we may be accustomed to. Why is that? The chief reason is the artwork of Ralph McQuarrie, but we …
Lightsabers are composed of plasma and typically weigh just over 2 lbs (1kg), including the hilt. Hence, they are maneuverable weapons that work well in one-on-one duels. Yet, they are actually supposed to feel heavy even though they have low mass. Why do they feel heavy if the blade itself has no mass? That’s what …
In Star Wars: The Clone Wars, the Mortis arc stands as one of the most mysterious and metaphysical journeys in Anakin Skywalker’s life. We saw the so-called “Force gods”—the Father, the Daughter, and the Son, beings who personified different aspects of the Force. And by the end of the arc, all three were dead. That’s …
I came across a Reddit post asking about that strange-looking statue in Palpatine’s apartment in The Phantom Menace. It’s the one displayed in a wall niche – round head, strange limbs, a bit unsettling. It caught my eye too, and like many fans, I’d always wondered if there was more to it. As it turns …
When The Force Awakens introduced Starkiller Base, it was meant to raise the bar beyond the Death Star. A weapon built into a planet that could drain a star and fire across the galaxy to destroy entire systems. On screen, it looked like the most powerful thing Star Wars had ever shown. But once you …
