Absolutely stunning ending to an outstanding series. Brilliant story telling with emotional stakes that really draw you in. Andor has raised the bar so high, it'll be hard to go back to the usual DisneySW/Filoni slop. Not going to lie, that ending brought a tear to my eye (especially when John...

I'll believe it when I see it. Nothing confirmed officially, so I'm not holding my breath. Even if she does go, the damage has been done. Star Wars is a greatly diminished franchise under her failed tenure. The mind boggles how she has been allowed to destroy not one, but three beloved...

Nice. Pretty damn good for a 'quickie' sketch.

I've always loved the Eddie Paul/Ralph McQuarrie 'Empire Day' promo posters for the UK ESB premiere. As a real one is way out of my price range, I thought I'd have a go at recreating one for myself. Created using Photoshop/Affinity Designer and giclée printed onto German Etching paper (30"x 40").

So sorry for this awful news. Best wishes to you and your family. Jon

Sadly, it seems Skeleton Crew has been 'Solo'd'. Whereby, a decent, 'not terrible' creation has suffered from following on from a truly dire one. Unfortunately, the accumulation of dire DisneySW content has taken its toll. Being 'not terrible' Star Wars isn't going to cut the mustard now...

That was good fun. Went in with extremely low expectations, but found it surprisingly enjoyable. The kids and effects are great. Also fantastic to see aliens and droids back in favour. Is it Star Wars? You can argue its a generic kids sci-fi adventure with a Star Wars skin, but it would be...

Rise of Palpatine production costs were recently revealed as $588m. Include marketing and the total could be as high as $800m. As ROS made just over a billion, you're looking at a possible $600m loss. Truly staggering. No wonder we've not seen a theatrical release in five years, if they were...

That should have been the tagline on the poster. Totally agree regarding Disney SW. I'm done. They've killed it and seem incapable of admitting the fact. Nothing will change. I've gone back to reading the old EU books. That should keep me going for the next decade or so.

I know we've been here before, but from what I've read Kinberg is a genuine SW nerd, so there may be a glimmer of hope for this. But, as @lejackal states, if its just a continuation of the Rey Palpatine mess then count me out. Also, a bit strange we've not heard anything regarding KKs renewal...

Getting boring now isn't it. There's a Disney earnings call coming up, so make of that what you will. Probably another prick-tease to excite the investors and then quietly shelved. The fact that an announcement of a new SW Trilogy leaves me totally apathetic, is depressing.

Another one gone. RIP JEJ. Sad news, but what a life. Forever Vader. Pretty sure that only leaves Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford & Anthony Daniels from the original SW main cast remaining.

Real Star Wars. Can't wait. Only downside is that it's gonna be the bloody Special Editions. Vue are also showing the Lord of the Rings Extended Versions.

What a great article. Thanks. Those production budgets are simply staggering. No wonder Disney pulled the plug on theatrical releases. The out of control budgets hamstrung the productions from the get-go. Makes me angry these beloved franchises have been mis-managed on an industrial scale. The...

Yeah, ScreenRant. That last bastion of unbiased journalism. I think not. Now being reported that all Acolyte merch has been removed from the Disney Store. Shows how much faith they had in it. Won't be surprised if the series gets Willowed now. How did we get here? What a mess.
