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 […]

Mark Hamill not quite convinced of Luke Skywalker’s fate in Star Wars: The Last Jedi

March 4, 2018 by Jordan Jones

One of the more polarizing elements of Star Wars: The Last Jedi was the film’s handling of Luke Skywalker. While many fans were expecting a massive spectacle to accompany Luke’s return to the fray, in reality, what we got was a lot more character-driven, and understated. Luke was definitely not tearing down Star Destroyers with […]

There was no time for Han’s funeral in Star Wars: The Last Jedi, says director Rian Johnson

February 2, 2018 by Jordan Jones

For being the best reviewed sci-fi movie of 2017, Star Wars: The Last Jedi has sure ruffled many feathers. Amidst a flurry of complaints, one issue fans have had is the somewhat muted reaction The Last Jedi had to Han Solo’s death in Star Wars: The Force Awakens.
