Star Wars

Andor: Season 1 (Disney +) — a review

Way back in December 2021, I published a post ranking all of the Star Wars movies. Rogue One (a Star Wars story) ranked #4 out of 11 at that time. Upon reviewing this post, way over here in 2023, I believe this list to still be valid, although I’m tempted to bump Rogue One up […]

10-List: First Seasons (Since July 2022)

I watch two episodes of television each day. The first I watch before going to work each morning, and the second I watch during my lunch. This is on workdays, of course. I usually stick to the two-per-day rule on the weekends as well. You’re ahead of me on the math, I’m sure, and you […]

The Book of Boba Fett: Season 1 (Disney +) — a review

I see what you did there, Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni. You teased us with a new show named The Book of Boba Fett, and then it turned into another season of The Mandalorian. Maybe Season 2.5. It’s okay. I forgive you. While I found the continuing tale of Fett to be entertaining, and I […]

10-List: Star Wars Movies Ranked (plus one)

Counting Solo and Rogue One (and not really counting The Clone Wars), there have been eleven motion pictures in the Star Wars universe. That’s one too many for a true 10-List. But, hey, I’m the one who makes the rules here. Around three years ago, I put up a post that ranked every Star Wars […]

Star Wars: The Clone Wars: Season 1 — a review

I know that we’ve talked about this before, you and I. I was an OG Star Wars fan. I’ve been a member, in good standing, of the Rebel Alliance since that day in 1977 when I saw Star Wars for the first time. This was when it was actually titled just Star Wars; the subtitle […]

The Mandalorian: Season 2 (Disney +) — a review

This review will not be entirely spoiler free. If you plan to watch the series, please do so before you read this. What does it say when the best Star Wars programming I’ve seen in recent years is on television? I’m talking about The Mandalorian, of course. I started watching Star Wars: The Clone Wars […]

David Prowse: The Man in the Suit — in memoriam

Of all the people who were involved with the movie, I only ever met one in person and shook his hand. I was there in the summer of 1977 when the imposing figure of Darth Vader boarded the captured Rebel starship at the beginning of Star Wars (a movie that didn’t become “A New Hope” […]

Star Wars: The Mandalorian: Season 1 (Disney +) — a review

One future writing project I’ve been mulling over for a while now has this working title: “King Nerd of Geek Mountain.” A clunky title, I know. At one point, it was just “King of the Nerds,” but it turns out that this was the actual title of a reality television program that I never watched. […]

Solo: A Star Wars Story — a movie review

Was this movie necessary? No. It doesn’t add anything appreciably to the Star Wars canon. It embellishes the backstory of a few important series characters—namely, Han Solo, Chewbacca and Lando Calrissian—but not in any truly surprising or revelatory way. It’s not so much the tale of how Han Solo became the person we first met […]

Empire of Dreams: The Story of the Star Wars Trilogy — a documentary review

It’s more than possible that I’ve watched this before. I’ve seen versions of at least parts of the documentary about the making of the “Trilogy” on several occasions. Plus, I’ve listened to DVD commentary tracks, so some of the voices are familiar to me even when the faces may not be. My Star Wars game […]
