December 23, 2019 by Gary Collinson

Unleashed into theaters around the globe this weekend, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker has been met with mixed reviews and reactions from critics and fans alike, and while it hasn’t quite reached The Last Jedi-levels of divisiveness, it certainly hasn’t brought the fractured fan base back together in the way that Disney and Lucasfilm […]

Simon Pegg admits J.J. Abrams had different plans for Rey’s parents

April 5, 2018 by Jordan Jones

This may come as a shocker, but Star Wars: The Last Jedi has been a bit polarizing. There are a fair amount of people that…  well, let’s say that they didn’t prefer it. If one looks for just 30 seconds on the internet they will be treated to a wealth of detailed, and extremely polite […]
