STAR TIMES MEDIA

After nearly a year of no Star Wars films, the teaser trailer (and title) for Star Wars Episode IX has arrived as a part of Star Wars Celebration 2019. JJ Abrams has returned to direct the film, concluding his story that was set up in the Force Awakens. This teaser shows off a lot of new footage, the returning characters, and as I said before, the title reveal, which I will all break down, so let's get on with it. The trailer opens up with Rey (Daisy Ridley) on a sand planet, as she ignites the Skywalker family lightsaber, and runs towards a new imperial tie fighter racing towards her, as she flips over it. To make one thing clear, I believe that the tie fighter is piloted by Kylo Ren in this scene. The coloring and the design stray away from a regular tie fighter, and every sith has had their unique tie fighter in every trilogy with the longer design. The setting of this scene is very ambiguous, as there are two notable sand planets and it seems like the film would go ...

JJ Abrams has posted an image on his twitter revealing that he has finally finished filming Star Wars episode nine. In this image, we see the main cast members of the trilogy, Daisy Riddley (Rey), John Boyega (Finn), and Oscar Issac (Poe Dameron) hugging on set and in costume. So I wanted to go through what we will see in Star Wars episode nine, and when we can expect the first trailer to release for the film.  So with Abrams returning as director and this being the conclusion to the Skywalker saga, the film is going to have to pay off and conclude a lot. I am assuming Abrams is going to pay off the mystery box he created in the Force Awakens and may divert some directions the trilogy was going in after the Last Jedi, with his revealing motivations for Snoke, and the lives of Rey's parents. The film will also have to wrap up the First Order, the fate of the galaxy, and also what is Ben Solo and Rey's legacy and how that will carry the Skywalker name.  In th...

At San Diego Comic-Con, major news was announced by Star Wars that they are bringing back the Clone Wars series for a seventh season, and there is some insane news to go along with it. I will discuss what we might see from the show, the other series', and where and when this could be coming out. The Star Wars the Clone Wars aired ten years ago, back in 2008, being the first animated Star Wars series which fitted into the canon of the films. Back in a time where there were no plans for any Star Wars film, the Clone Wars gave us a series which dove into the events between Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith, brightening up the prequel era in the Star Wars universe. When Disney bought Star Wars in 2012, the Clone Wars ended its six-season run the year after. Until now. Star Wars Rebels was Disney's stand-in for an animated series, and it bought back a tone of Clone Wars characters, wrapping up their story arcs in the universe. When Rebels ended it was revealed...

Although it has had production issues, Solo: A Star Wars Story is a surprisingly alright film for what it could have been. Yes, it is time for a new Star Wars spin-off, and this time, we are here with the film which no one asked for, but yet, it exists, Solo. This is a non-spoiler review of the film, so don't worry, no big twist or plot points are mentioned. So to start off, this film is fine "Everything's fine", a line which was used in the trailer which describes this film incredibly well. With Phil Lord and Chris Miller leaving the project after filming the majority of the film, Ron Howard was amazing at pulling this film from out of the dumpster fire, as he reshot most of the film. There were a couple times where you could see the differences in the two directing visions, however, it was all strung together in a presentable manner. Solo has many plot points which it dives deep into. There are a few useless and extremely weird concepts which attempt to expla...

With Solo: A Star Wars Story upon us, it has been announced that Han's greatest enemy (behind his son), Boba Fett, is going to get a spin-off film, directed by James Mangold. The news broke today from the Hollywood Reporter who said that Mangold is going to write and direct the film, which is not the last of the spin-off films, which we will see. So, this is awesome news, which raises plenty of questions, so let's get into this. To start off, I am pretty confident that this film will take place after Return of the Jedi, or while that film is going on. Most people have speculated that Boba Fett got out of the Sarlacc Pitt from the Jabba palace attack. So it seems like this would be confirmed with most likely the film starting off with Fett flying out of the pit. There are many ways where this film could go. I could focus on Boba Fett going on a side mission, all the while the Empire is being shattered, or it could show Boba Fett potentially trying to stop the Rebels or even...

The official trailer for the solo Han Solo film has come out, along with a few more scenes from the film, as we get a closer look at the characters, new and returning, as well as the plot of the film as the release date of the film approaches to be at the end of next month. So about six weeks away. Anyway, let's get into the breakdown of this trailer. The trailer opens up on this planet that I am assuming is Corellia, the home planet of Han Solo. It may not be, but that is the best guess. In this shot there are two Star Destroyers in the sky, both looking incomplete, with panels missing. This is the what is considered the early stages of the Empire. With the film taking place about a decade before A New Hope, the Empire is only nine years old at this point, which explains this incomplete star destroyer. On a power line is a type of red rat, a new species to the Star Wars universe, but the idea of this creature reminds me of Plusle. We see Han Solo (Alden Ehrenreich) hims...

Season 4 Episode 14 & 15: Hey everyone, I know I have not done a Star Wars Rebels review in a while, none of season four actually, however, the series finale of Star Wars Rebels is out, and there was a lot that went done in terms of the characters, them in the original trilogy, and we see an epilogue for the crew of ghost. But this episode of Rebels was directed by Dave Filoni, Bosco Ng, and Sergio Paez. So spoilers ahead for this last episode of Rebels. The episode centers around Hera, Kallus, Rex, Gergor, Wolfee, Ketsu, and Hondo coming to Lothal to meet with Ezra and the others to liberate Lothal from the Empire.
