Life Day One-Shot Comic Coming From Marvel
Many people (including George Lucas himself) would like to forget the Star Wars Holiday Special that aired November 17, 1978 and was never rebroadcast. However. Other parts of the franchise have since included references to it, including last year's The LEGO Star Wars Holiday Special. And earlier this year, the animated segment that introduced Boba Fett was actually included on Disney+ under the title "The Story of the Faithful Wookiee."

Fantastic Four Casting Process Teased By Kevin Feige
One of the franchises that has had the hardest time reaching its full potential and expectations within the superhero movie genre is the Fantastic Four. While the superhero team has long been a cornerstone of the Marvel Comics, their film adaptations have been built on a less than sturdy foundation.

'Star Wars' Theory: Luke Was To Deflect Attention Away From Leia, The True Secret Weapon Against The Emperor
"No. There is another." The revelation that Luke and Leia are siblings was one of the biggest plot twists in cinema history, and it is one that fans continue to talk and debate to this day. These revelations also proved that Luke was not, in fact, the last Jedi, and that Leia had an equal potential to become a Jedi master. Had Leia known about her heritage sooner, she might have been able to not only lead the Rebels against the Empire, but also fight against the Sith alongside her brother. A new theory suggests that perhaps this was the plan for Leia the entire time.

How The MandoVerse Could Adapt The 'Thrawn Trilogy'
In December 2020, Lucasfilm announced that The Mandalorian will not just be a single show but part of an ongoing series of spin-offs all leading to a big climatic event. Many fans wonder just what that big climatic event can be. There are some ideas. In the season 2 episode of The Mandalorian “The Jedi,'' we see Ashoka Tano searching for none other than Grand Admiral Thrawn, who has apparently survived the events of Star Wars Rebels. Now that Thrawn has returned to his original post-Return of the Jedi era, many think that perhaps the MandoVerse, in some ways, will be a loose adaptation of Timothy Zahn’s epic Thrawn Trilogy. Our heroes may be fighting against the Grand Admiral and stopping him from restoring the Galactic Empire. How will this Thrawn campaign pan out, or will it pan out at all? Will it be a point for point remake of the original? Who will fill in certain roles? What is Thrawn’s ultimate end goal? Well, here are some speculations.
