January 21st, 20171419 "The strongest stars have hearts of Kyber." -- Chirrut Imwe There’s something to be said about this quote or dialogue spoken by the Guardian of the Whills, Chirrut Imwe. It’s amazing what one line can do and how it can trigger a plethora of thoughts; not much different from saying a picture is worth a thousand words. These words...

But if you judge a fish by its ability to climb a tree, it will live its whole life believing that it is stupid.” (1) Awkward in social situations. Body parts on a seemingly ridiculously large-scale.

August 23rd, 20160920 I remember the promise of Episode One as it neared release. Not only would The Phantom Menace be the first new Star Wars movie in sixteen years, it would tell the story of a previous generation of heroes. Set in the days of the Republic, it would feature Jedi in their prime. Sure, Luke Skywalker was a cool Jedi Knight in Return of...

July 21st, 20161286 For my ally is the Force, and a powerful ally it is. Life creates it, makes it grow. Its energy surrounds us and binds us. Luminous beings are we, not this crude matter. You must feel the Force around you; here, between you, me, the tree, the rock, everywhere, yes. Even between the land and the ship. – Yoda to Luke in Star Wars:...
April 19th, 2016054We waited. Then we waited some more. Then we waited even more. December? No. January? Nope. February? March? Maybe. What about April? OK, yes. For real this time. More than four months after it was supposed to be released, the Star Wars Special: C-3PO one-shot by James Robinson and Tony Harris was finally released on April 13...
March 21st, 20165149 With the recent embargo of 'Star Wars: Bloodline' by Claudia Gray, and all the built-up hype surrounding it, I can’t help myself but to be swept-up in it too. This upcoming novel holds so much promise when it comes to plot-holes or gaps where the Skywalker lineage is concerned. Even Claudia Gray told USA Today that, “In this...
February 23rd, 201631231 Nearly seventeen years ago, Star Wars fans learned how Anakin Skywalker came to be the apprentice to Obi-Wan Kenobi with the release of The Phantom Menace. The story was a little different from what Old Ben would tell Luke Skywalker in his hut on Tatooine during A New Hope. It isn’t so much that Obi-Wan lied, but he made an omission....
January 24th, 20161188 Even though we never heard it in the movie, I wonder if some Star Wars fans never forgot a certain line from the last trailer for The Force Awakens - "I'm no one." We heard Rey say that right after Maz Kanata asked her, "Who are you?" Despite those lines never being said in the movie, we're still trying to figure out more details...
