In the beginning, the rag tag crew of Star Wars Rebels seemed to be little more than a side story in the overall scope of the Star Wars universe. The colorful cast, including Ezra, Kanaan, Sabine, Hera, have grown in unexpected ways and most weren’t anticipating how crucial they would become to the overall Star Wars saga. Huge icons of Star Wars’ lore has […]
The results are in and Rogue One A Star Wars Story is a certified hit. The first spin-off in Lucasfilm’s Star Wars universe had a jaw-dropping $155 million dollar in its first weekend of release, with advanced ticket sales that have shut down servers. Rogue One’s story expands on the opening crawl of A New Hope, where a band […]
Star Wars Rebels is coming back for it’s third season this fall and it looks as if it has the potential to be the best TV season in Star Wars history. Creator Dave Filoni is the mastermind behind a brand new wing of the Star Wars universe and as its popularity grows, its influence continues to expand as well. It appears […]
When Lucasfilm launched Star Wars Rebels in 2014 it was hard to imagine the truly limitless possibilities that would be available on both the small and big screens. Star Wars Rebels takes place in the time period between episode 3 and 4, giving the writers both creative freedom and an ability to cleverly make links to the larger universe. […]
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 […]
Fans have been treated to a gross of riches when it comes to geek programming on the television airwaves. Whether it’s The Flash, Jessica Jones, Gotham, or even Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., there seems to be an option for every taste. This season saw the arrival of a new live-action heroine in Supergirl, which debuted on CBS this past fall to huge […]
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. […]
