Back in 2012, a group of Star Wars fans decided to test the limits of democracy — and the internet — by submitting a petition to the White House asking the U.S. government to build a real Death Star. Yes, that Death Star. The moon-sized, planet-killing weapon from Star Wars. And what started out as …
Who understands the Jedi Order better than the fans, right? Ask any of us and we can tell you exactly how fast Yoda moved, how powerful Mace Windu’s Vaapad was, or how Anakin fought like a battering ram. But there’s one Jedi who gets talked about a little differently—Obi-Wan Kenobi. He wasn’t the fastest or …
If you are like many fans, you probably watched Rogue One again after the second season of Andor. You may also have reconsidered who the main character is in the film. Although we may have believed Jyn Erso filled that role, Cassian seems to have surpassed her. His character arc is one of the main …
I’ve always found it kind of funny the first time I saw Yoda fight. One moment he’s shuffling along slowly with his little cane, and then suddenly he’s flipping around like gravity doesn’t exist. It feels like two totally different versions of him, but they actually fit together when you look deeper into the reason …
Tatooine shows up a lot in Star Wars, and it always feels like something big is going down there—Luke’s home, Anakin’s origin, bounty hunter hangouts, pod races, even Boba Fett’s comeback. With so much happening, you’d think Tatooine was some major hub packed with people. But here’s the twist: it’s actually one of the most …
After viewing two seasons of Andor and rewatching Rogue One, we may come away with a different perspective of A New Hope. Although the original movie still captivates audiences, we could see it as veering toward comedic grounds. We could see the Rebellion in a whole new light of outlandishness. The Premise of Hilarious After …
There are a lot of powerful moments in Rogue One, but for me, the one that hit the hardest wasn’t Jyn or Cassian on the beach. It wasn’t Chirrut’s walk into blaster fire, or even the entire crew accepting their fate. The moment that truly broke me was K-2SO’s death. Somehow, the most relatable and …
This question has been floating around the Star Wars community ever since Rogue One came out. Back in Attack of the Clones, we saw that the Geonosians were the ones who designed the Death Star. But in Rogue One, we learned that Galen Erso was the only one who could actually make it work, specifically, …
Back in the day, we all enjoyed the Original Trilogy by following the main heroes—Luke’s journey from farm boy to galactic savior, and Leia and Han becoming the heart of the Rebellion. But fast forward to the modern Star Wars era, and we’ve been treated to so much more. Series like The Clone Wars expanded …
Every Star Wars fan knows Luke Skywalker as the hero who destroyed the Death Star and, alongside the Rebels, helped bring down the Empire. But off-screen, Mark Hamill became a real-life hero when he granted a dying child’s deepest wish. Ed Solomon, screenwriter of Men in Black, first shared this heartwarming story on X (formerly …
