… … … You remember how I said that I HATE having to denigrate someone else’s work? Well… All right, I went into this book SUPER ENTHUSIASTIC!!! I didn’t even read the synopsis. I wanted to hear about the tragedy of Darth Plagueiss The Wise. To me, this was something that I’d been curious about for a long time. So I finally sat down … Read More Rare Reviews… Star Wars Darth Plagueiss

Go ahead, oust me from the Geek Community with pitchforks and torches. I don’t care. This is the final nail in the coffin. First it was the 2016 San Diego Comic Con Star Trek Panel that was nothing more than a boring Social Justice tirade by Producer Bryan Fuller. I watched it online, but everyone who was there that I know, told me that it … Read More And… I’m Done With Star Trek

So over the last few months, I’ve taken to downloading Star Wars fan films onto my computer and sort of arranging them in order of the timeline. I’ve accrued about 30 videos from YouTube and absolutely love them. Today, I wanted to share my top 5 with you. Now… before I do that, what are my standards? Well they are fairly easy: Actual Honest … Read More Top 5 Star Wars Fan Films

As a lot of you know, I have a standing theory that I continue to profess will come to fruition… Supreme Leader Snoke is none other than our Star Wars Rebels hero, Ezra Bridger. Please see my post ‘Star Wars: The Search for Snoke’ on that theory for the evidence. So one of the primary arguments I’ve heard against this theory over and over … Read More The Star Wars Blend

Shaddap! Okay we all remember Episode 1 being the most anticipated movie in almost all of history. Fans were nuts! Action figures literally flew off of the shelves (I think I still have a few) and people were ready for Star Wars fever. We’ve been without a new movie for over a decade and were itching for this. What we got… did not … Read More Unpopular Opinion: The Phantom Menace Wasn’t A Bad Movie

As I got older and the internet became a thing… imagine my surprise when one of my childhood favorites didn’t do very well at the box office. I mean I suppose that I shouldn’t be surprised, given the lack of sequels, but I loved this movie. It is, in my opinion, one of the better fantasy movies to come out of the 80s. Oh … Read More An Unpopular Opinion: Masters of the Universe

So we all know how most people feel about the special remastered editions of Star Wars that are sadly now the ‘official’ editions. The theatrical versions that we all know and love have been relegated to the bonus features on ONE release of the DVDs due to Lucas trying to erase them from history. Most of the fans will tell you that Episode 4 … Read More How ROTJ’s Special Edition Could Have Been Saved

Need a good song to listen to when writing either a victory, royalty entering the room, or a new order taking over in the ashes of an oppressive power? Well normally the metal head in me would recommend Dragonforce… literally anything Dragonforce, but today I’m doing something a little different: If the sheer sound of this doesn’t send chills down your spine, take your … Read More Musical Inspiration

I understand that this may be hard to talk about and if it is too soon, please feel free to skip today’s posting. I won’t blame you. However, with the initial shock of Carrie’s departure slowly sinking in, Star Wars fans have been wondering in the backs of their minds… Where the heck do we go from here??? How does this change the story … Read More Where do we go from here?

I’ve seen a lot of reviews for Rogue One, many of the say it was great, several say ‘not so much.’ Personally, I can understand both sides. This is not a typical Star Wars movie. When we tune in to see Star Wars, we’re usually going in to see a space opera dealing with Jedi, the force, and really character-driven plots. Rogue One was … Read More Star Wars fans vs. CGI

I’ve heard a lot of talk lately since Trump was elected about how ‘We’ve won the war against the regressive left!’ How their party, the democrats, are now in shambles as the republicans now dominate the senate, house, White House, soon the Supreme Court… and the majority of the elected governors. In addition, the mainstream media has been ripped to shreds in many ways. … Read More The Geek Casualty.
