Aside from Rian Johnson, no one person associated with Star Wars has had a target painted on them as big as the one on Kathleen Kennedy. The beleaguered Lucasfilm president's run has been nothing if not tempestuous. Under her watch, Star Wars relaunched with the blockbuster first installment of the
We got our first, live-action introduction to Mandalorian armor when Boba Fett appeared on screen in The Empire Strikes Back. The faceless, helmeted, battle-worn soldier became an instant fan favorite. But, as we'd come to learn, neither Boba, nor Jango from whom he was cloned, were actually born
Star Wars fans will nitpick anything. It's one of the worst things about the fandom, and often times one of the most prevalent. Even George Lucas himself nitpicked his own work. If he hadn't, we'd never have seen the original trilogy Special Editions. But… What if all you can do is nitpick
Let's start off by saying this review will be COMPLETELY SPOILER FREE. Also a tiny spoiler, if you have been one of those jaded, hateful, self-loathing, other issues outside of Star Wars, kind of fans that just really wants to see Rian Johnson get punched in the face, this show will bring back your

[Warning: Article contains minor spoilers for the latest Star Wars novel from author Rebecca Roanhorse.] By now you're sure to have watched the trailer for Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker. In it we see a massive opposition fleet and what looks like hundreds of volunteers gathered in a hangar.
Recently we heard from Freddie Prinze Jr. about who Star Wars is made for. In his expletive-filled rant, he says Star Wars is made for kids. We also have George's famous "Star Wars is for twelve-year-olds" speech that bolsters the creation of Jar-Jar. Now Jon Favreau, the creative mind behind The
We've had haunted house movies. Sure, but have we had a haunted van movie? That's what Passenger amounts to at its most distilled form. This is a horror movie about a demonic force (the opposite of Saint Christopher) that has been chasing and killing travelers for hundreds of years. Basically, the
Though marital arts action cinema is vast and varied, it is rare for one to elevate the genre and push it forward. There have been few recently - The Raid comes to mind, and while not technically "martial arts" I'd argue John Wick counts - that feel as if something new and special is happening.
It's been quite a long time since we've had a Star Wars movie in theaters. In the time between Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker and now, we've had a revolution in entertainment in streaming and Star Wars moved from controlling the theater to a fixture in our living rooms with shows like The
