‘Star Wars: Episode IX’ casts Keri Russell in “action-heavy” role. Mara Jade or GTFO, my dudes

Keri Russell is going to to be in Episode IX, my dudes. And, I’m going to riot if she ain’t Mara Jade.

The Last Jedi: I was wrong

guardians of the galaxy vol 3 mark hamill james gunn

I went to the theater to watch TLJ the day after it came out. I couldn’t wait to see what Rian did with the film. In my mind, I was really hoping for something big. Something new. Let’s make a statement after the relatively safe TFA.

And it was something big. And new. And different. And after my initial gushing, the film soured in my mind. I felt the initial glow begin to dim, similar to what happened to me with TFA.

Maybe I read too much online?

Maybe I let others teeth gnashing get to me?

Maybe I’m really jaded and just wanted the same old shit?

‘Star Wars’ spin-off movies put on hold as Lucasfilm stunningly appears to get a fucking clue

star wars lucasfilm film spin off movies on hold

Man, I really, really liked Solo. But, none the less I am thrilled at the news that Lucasfilm has put their Star Wars spin-off movies on hold. It’s hard to deny that the franchise is going to be better for it in the long run. Countless Star Wars fans have been crying for new adventures in the increasingly claustrophobic Galaxy Far, Far Away. And after Solo financially flopping, it appears Lucasfilm is finally hearing the message.

Ridin’ SOLO: Reactions! [SPOILERS]

solo

It happened — SOLO has been released.

It took the title-role casting of an actor that no one seems to trust and the support-role casting of an actor-comedian-musician-showrunner that’s beloved and the firing of the 21 Jump Street dudes and the hiring of the kid from Happy Days and a wading through a morass of antipathy that the fanbase hasn’t shown in over a decade, but it happened.

As a lifelong believer in the Force, I made my way to the first showing I could find. And now, I’m going to cannonball into a stream-of-conscious review/reaction of the tenth theatrically-released STAR WARS movie.

Of course, I’m much more interested in your reactions — so hit up the comments section and share your thoughts about the fourth post-prequel installment.

Of course, SPOILERS AHEAD!

Boba Fett movie in the works because Lucasfilm doesn’t fucking get it. But, it’s got James Mangold writing and directing at least

boba fett movie james mangold

On the one hand: I’m so fucking done with Lucasfilm recycling all their old properties, instead of giving us dope new tales in the Star Wars universe. On the other hand: Logan‘s James Mangold is writing and directing it, and he proved with Logan he sure knows his Neo-Western type shit. So, I’m optimistic, while disappointed. Frustrated, while moderately intrigued.

Lando Calrissian could get his own ‘Star Wars’ spin-off movie some day, says Kathleen Kennedy

lando star wars spin off movie

Kathleen Kennedy, Chief Czar of Lucasfilm, has come out and said that Lando may one day get his own Star Wars spin-off flick. As contradictory as it is for me to champion this idea, fuck it, I’m going to! I know, I know. Typically I bemoan the franchise for not striking out into new territory. But! It’s Lando! It’s Donald Glover!

jon favreau star wars series seven years jedi

Oh, golly. Jon Favreau’s Star Wars show takes place between Jedi and Force Awakens. Can you hear it? My deep, soul-consuming yawn? I just don’t fucking need more Star Wars content that takes place at any point in the Skywalker Saga.
