It is an interesting time to be a Star Wars fan. It seems like every time you turn around there’s a new announcement regarding the franchise. In the last month alone, Disney has announced a brand new Star Wars film set after the events of Episode IX and it will highlight the character of Rey and her attempt to rebuild...
Andor was one of the first live-action series announced by Disney several years ago. Ever since, it has been the subject of much speculation. Obviously, the series was to focus on the character of Cassian Andor (introduced in the Rogue One film). While most fans agreed that Andor was an excellent character, a large portion of the fan community (myself...
Of all the Star Wars shows that have aired on Disney+ thus far, Obi-Wan Kenobi is the one that I was most excited for. Unlike the Mandalorian or Boba Fett, Obi-Wan is not a secondary character. His story is a big part of the Star Wars saga. Ever since I was a child, he’s been one of my favorite characters....
Ever since I was a child, Star Wars fans have wanted to know more about the elusive character of Boba Fett. For nearly two decades, the only official glimpse we had of the character came from brief scenes in two of the original three movies. Other than that, fans had to rely on semi-official novels to fill in the gaps....
It look a little longer than I wanted for me to get this post out. But as they say, better late than never! It’s been over a year since I shared my thoughts on Star Wars: Resistance. Resistance was a show that didn’t really tickle my fancy. Maybe it’s because it was aimed at younger viewers, I don’t know. But...
A while back, I shared my thoughts on a Japanese television show called Ultra Q. In that article, I discussed my childhood fascination with a character that’s somewhat related to that show, Ultraman. In case you are not familiar with the name, Ultraman is a giant robotic-looking alien who defends Earth against terrible monsters. My first encounter with the character...
Disney took the world by storm when they premiered the first season of The Mandalorian. Since that time, fans have been eagerly waiting for the second, albeit with some trepidation. The first season was so perfect, could lightning really strike twice? Well, the second season is now complete and I can easily answer that question: YES! And I’m happy to...
It took me a bit longer than expected, but I have finally finished the final season of The Clone Wars on Disney+. The original run for this show wrapped up right around the time of the Disney/Lucasfilm merger. For this reason, I don’t think I’ve discussed it much on the site. But now that Disney has released the final season,...
When I was about eleven years old, my family moved to Okinawa, Japan. We only stayed for about three years but that was plenty of time for me to become enamored by the culture. At any age, finding yourself immersed in a foreign land is always an eye-opening experience. But as an adolescent, it’s even more so. My family was...
This is a tough post for me to write. As you know, I’ve been a lifelong fan of Star Wars. I’ve loved the films, the books, and even the TV shows. So when Disney announced a new animated series that would be replacing The Clone Wars, I was naturally excited. This new show; Star Wars Resistance, is set during the...
