Epic Lightsaber Battle On "Hoth" Has These Two Going Viral
Colorado, February 2021. It was about 30 degrees outside. Snowflakes scattered down from the sky, covering the ground with a thick white blanket. While most people huddled indoors by the fire, sipping on hot chocolate, struggling against the shivering cold, a different battle continued. In a different sort of "Duel of the Fates," two men engaged in a battle of good versus evil. No, they were not having a snowball fight. No, they were not having a one-on-one hockey game. No, they were not in a “who can shovel the driveway the fastest” competition. Two men reenacted a fight that started a long time ago, in the galaxy far far away.

Bo-Katan Actress Wants To See This Certain Mandalorian Make A Live-Action Cameo
On the hit Disney+ series The Mandalorian, viewers were treated to appearances by characters from other Star Wars media, including the realm of animation. With characters like Bo-Katan Kryze and Ahsoka Tano making the transition from The Clone Wars to the live-action front, or even Cobb Vanth jumping from the pages of the Aftermath novels to the screen, the franchise has proven that almost no character is off limits. We even got to see Jedi Knight Luke Skywalker in the season 2 finale (results of which have gotten admittedly mixed reception).
