It’s finally come. The episode we’ve all been waiting for: adult Ahsoka dusting off her lightsabers and kicking some serious ass. “The Future of the Force”, besides having one of the most heart-pounding titles of any Rebels or Clone Wars episode ever, is the most pleasing episode of the season so far. Not only are we treated to […]
The spotlight shifts to Sabine this week as the wider Rebels plot grinds to a halt. Sabine is one of the Rebels whose history I’m most curious about. She’s Mandalorian—she wears the traditional armor, after all—but that’s the only hint we have about her past. And it’s not much of hint. “Blood Sisters” gives Sabine fans […]
Disney granted Star Wars Rebels a full twenty-three episodes this season, and with that order comes inevitable filler. Not to be too cynical, but with twenty-three time slots to fill this season, not every episode can push the plot onward. “Wings of the Master”, like “Brothers of the Broken Horn” before it, are perfect examples of […]
This week’s episode of Star Wars Rebels finds our intrepid heroes on something like leave from active duty. Relaxing for them, but not so interesting for us. For an episode so low on plot movement, though, we’re still treated to a few great moments. Rex is finding himself right at home among the crew of the Ghost. So much […]
Just in time for Halloween, Star Wars Rebels drops a spooky “haunted house” episode on your doorstep. But what pops out from these dark corners are more terrifying than poltergeists: they’re a pair of deadly Inquisitors. This week, the Rebels, with Rex onboard, assign themselves a mission to retrieve supplies from a long-abandoned medical station. Things don’t quite go […]
“Relics of the Old Republic” picks up right where “The Lost Commanders” left off: where the fun begins. Thanks to Wolf’s treachery, the Empire comes knocking on the clones’ door in search of lost Jedi. And when the Empire knocks, it knocks with three AT-ATs and a slew of TIE fighters. Little does the Agent Kallus […]
Star Wars Rebels strikes back with “The Lost Commanders,” episode two of a very promising second season. The stakes have never been higher for the Rebels as they join forces with the wider Rebellion, led, in-part, by none other than Ahsoka Tano, apprentice to Anakin during the Clone Wars. Unfortunately, with new allies come new enemies. […]
The Flash returned to airwaves last night after an incredibly successful debut season. The show managed to adapt a comic book that has a lead character who is struck by lightning, which embues him with super speed enabling him to break the laws of physics. Yeah, it’s a pretty far out concept… However, producers Greg Berlanti, […]
Another superhero show will debut this fall when Supergirl comes to CBS. Last week the network gave audiences their first look at the show, with a six-minute extended preview that drew mixed reactions. Many were thrown off by the tone and frivolity of the trailer causing debates across the internet. A week later the entire […]
The Flash is taking its time to fully unravel the mystery of the Reverse Flash. In last night’s episode, “Who Is Harrison Wells?” many questions were answered, as the race to uncover Harrison Wells’ identity comes to a conclusion. This was an episode that was full of discovery for the supporting characters, as they uncover […]
The Flash is hands down the best superhero show on TV. It seems like every week is better than the previous and it has not let up yet. “Out of Time” begins with a flashback to the first episode, indicating that things are going to come full circle. The first scene from the pilot episode is […]
With Kanan captured and tortured by the inimical Inquisitor, Ezra and the crew of The Ghost embark on a fateful—and dramatic—rescue mission and consequently celebrate almost everything epic and thrilling about the ‘Star Wars’ saga. Space battles. Lightsaber duels. Running through giant technological terrors. Blasters firing. Big reveals. Hijinks. It’s all there in equal parts in […]
