    The Acolyte 4th June, 2024

    Soon to be warming a shelf at a Poundland near you. Hasbro must be over the moon.

    Your first time in a Galaxy Far Far Away

    STAR WARS Bristol Odeon - February 1978 - Aged 9 Can't remember much about the screening, apart from being totally gobsmacked after. Hard to describe to people how much a phenomenon SW was at the time. It permeated everything in my small world and culture as a whole. Still got the SW film...

    The Acolyte 4th June, 2024

    🤣🤣🤣🤣 It's all so boringly predictable isn't it. Apparently, our Leslye drinks from the furry cup. You'd never know, as she only mentions it every ****ing five seconds. I'll still give it a go for the laughs, but I think we all know where this is going. What with this and Lucas siding with the...

    Mandalorian Season 3

    On a positive note, here's the fantastic Wingman fanfilm. As usual the fans are doing the best work. Really gutted the Patty Jenkins Rogue Squadron never materialised, so this gives a glimpse of what may have been.

    Mandalorian Season 3

    Agreed, regarding the constant negativity. But then again, apart from the odd highlight, there hasn't been much to be positive about recently. I think the vast majority of fans (myself included) want DisneySW to be the best it can be and would rather be singing its praises. But for some...

    Mandalorian Season 3

    Totally agree. Nothing will change whilst Kennedy is still in charge. I wouldn't put it past them to renew her contract in October. Can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with John Campea. Bring in Tony Gilroy. Whilst not a huge SW fan, he seems to have the creative vision to take the...

    Mandalorian Season 3

    Yeah, its an extremely sad state of affairs. Lucasfilm just seems to be in total disarray and the situation is quickly descending into farce, if the rumours are to be believed. The list of announced, then cancelled projects, seems to be ever-growing. The Mando announcement seems to have come...

    Thank you. I'll keep an eye out for the side door.

    Ahsoka

    So, essentially it took eight episodes for Ahsoka to swap locations with Thrawn. Hmmmm. Overall the series was OK. Great visuals and score. Its hardly been the worst DisneySW offering (not a big accolade, I know). It just suffers from the usual curse of poor writing and being dragged out to...

    Ahsoka

    I can understand Disney wanting SW to widen its appeal to more of the so-called 'normies'. Therefore, it seems strange that they would focus their recent prime D+ shows on characters that the vast majority of the 'normies' wouldn't know or care about (Andor, Ahsoka etc.). Seems a bit of an odd...

    Ahsoka

    Star Wars has changed (for good or bad), but that doesn't mean it should be above criticism. How can it hope to improve if there is no quality control? With respect, just blindly accepting what Disney produces (in the fear of it disappearing if you don't), is surely unhealthy. If Disney keeps...

    Ahsoka

    What's with Disney's SW male protagonists rejecting their lightsabres?? I'm confused.... Is it some sort of Freudian subliminal message we're getting here? Could it be the phallic symbol that KK wants us to spurn? Has my dinkle been consigned to the dustbin of history? Does it mean I have to...

    Ahsoka

    Yeah, it did make me laugh. Think he's supposed to be in 60s isn't he? If so, I think we can forgive him a Dad bod at this point 🤣 As for the 'female agenda' thing, I personally have nothing against prominent female roles. The Ahsoka series has its flaws. Having prominent female roles is NOT...

    Ahsoka

    Whilst 'misandry' may be a strong word (depending on your viewpoint), I don't think anyone can deny the franchise has been infiltrated by an overt feminist agenda. If it wasn't obvious before, the upcoming 'The Acolyte' will more than drive that point home. For good or bad, Star Wars has always...

    Ahsoka

    After a few so-so episodes, Ep5 finally kicked into a higher gear. The WBW scenes with Anakin and young/old Ahsoka were fantastic, with emotional impact and some wonderful imagery. Thankfully, Haydens de-aging was much better than the glimpse in Ep4. Special mention for Kevin Kiners score...

    Ahsoka

    Got a horrible feeling the World Between Worlds sequence is going to be a cop out. I'll be disappointed if Ahsoka wakes up on the cliff edge and it all ends up being 'just a dream'. Ep4 seems to have been lauded online. Personally, I thought it was OK. We're halfway through the season and I...

    Ahsoka

    Yeah, it's seems to be the overlying problem with SW D+. Stretching out enough material for a decent 2 hour movie, into a multi-episode series. Whilst I've enjoyed Ahsoka, to a point, it just seems like "butter spread over too much bread" as a certain hobbit once said. SW doesn't seem to suit...

    Ahsoka

    Yeah, it's becoming a bit of a meme now. Disney have turned the limb-hacking weapon of the OT/PT into the galactic equivalent of a paper cut. Also, did we really need yet another map/wayfinder McGuffin? 🙄 Overall I enjoyed the two episodes. Great visuals and soundtrack. Thought the opening...

    Ahsoka

    Yeah, watched Rebels. Couldn't be arsed ploughing through the whole of Clone Wars, so I followed one of those 'Essential Episodes' guides, to get up to speed. It's been a while, though. Some reviews have suggested you might struggle a bit, if you haven't watched Rebels/CW. Very little setup of...

    Ahsoka

    Yep, got my fingers crossed. Hope Filoni has played a blinder. The early reviews have been encouraging, if not earth shattering (not that you can hold much stock with early access media reviews). Hopefully, it follows on from Andor and we get a well written series with great characters.
