Could 'Jedi: Fallen Order 2' Bring Back This Fan Favorite Character As a Villain?
The massive success of Star Wars: Jedi Fallen Order is a good indication of how the market is still there for quality Star Wars games. The remakes of the Battlefront games were little more than gambling dens for loot boxes and large PVP battles, that don’t deserve to share the name of the nearly perfect originals. So seeing a great, innovative, and overall fun Star Wars game was a breath of fresh air. The story was engaging, the mechanics were overall pretty solid, and the new characters are easy to get invested in.

Why ‘Book Of Boba Fett’ Would Be The Perfect Place For Mace Windu To Show Up Again
One of the most interesting characters in the Star Wars prequel trilogy is Mace Windu. He is the head of the Jedi Council, has a cool purple lightsaber (which, really, only came about because actor Samuel L. Jackson requested something different), and is a big part of the reason why Anakin betrays the Jedi and joins Palpatine.

Who's That Wookiee In 'The Book of Boba Fett'?
*Spoilers for The Book of Boba Fett* In the most recent episode of The Book of Boba Fett, titled Chapter 2: The Tribes of Tatooine, we see the titular bounty hunter-turned-crime lord encounter many challengers to his throne. Among these rivals are two of Jabba's cousins, known as "the Twins", who arrive in Mos Espa to lay claim to their late cousin's territory. When Boba refuses to relinquish his current position, the Hutts respond by trying to intimidate him with a fierce-looking Wookiee gladiator. The Wookiee's design alone is certainly striking and creates an air of intrigue and mystery around the new character. Luckily, this Wookiee does have an established backstory due to his long-running history in the Star Wars comics.

You Have Never Seen This Deleted Scene From ‘Revenge Of The Sith’
Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith, widely considered the best of the prequel trilogy, saw the end of the Clone Wars, the Great Jedi Purge, the Galactic Republic’s transformation into the Galactic Empire, and Anakin Skywalker’s “death” and rebirth into the iconic Darth Vader. It included many other references to the original trilogy, including an appearance of the Tantive IV and Chewbacca himself (fighting alongside Yoda during the Battle of Kashyyyk right before Palpatine issued Order 66), and one last visit to Tatooine, the first planet we ever saw in the Star Wars saga Well, we thought it would be the last visit as far as the movies are concerned.

Why A ‘Star Wars’ Tower Defense Game Would Be Good Again
Recently, my younger brother got this Bloon Tower Defense 5 (BTD5) on Steam during one of their Christmas sales. It is a game where there is some strange conflict between monkeys and balloons. I do not know the history of that feud. Why are balloons wanting to invade the monkeys’ home? The game does take me back to high school as sometimes between classes, other classmates and I would sometimes play these free-to-play computer games. A site would be passed around that was not blocked by the school. And they were fun to play. So I ended up purchasing it and playing it too. After a bit of playing, a thought crossed my mind..... why isn't there a Star Wars tower defense game?

Theory: Just Why Did Palpatine's Form Change After Fighting Mace Windu?
Sheev Palpatine was born on Naboo 52 years before the events of The Phantom Menace with a strong connection to the Force. From a young age, the dark side of the Force had a powerful grasp on the young man. Growing up in politics, Sheev and his father Cosinga had differing points of view regarding Naboo. Darth Plagueis took notice of young Palpatine’s motivations and took him under his wing, secretly teaching him the ways of the Sith. Palpatine saw Plagueis as a father figure despite knowing he was being manipulated by the Sith Lord. Cosinga attempted to separate Sheev from Plagueis. This infuriated Sheev, who then murdered his entire family. Sheev Palpatine then started down the dark path as it was his destiny.

Did ‘Book of Boba Fett’ Give Credence To A Previously Debunked Dark Boba Fett Fan Theory?
I think everyone will remember their first time laying eyes on the dreaded and revered bounty hunter Boba Fett. Whether it was from the “holiday themed show,” which shall not be named, or from the epic movie Empire Strikes Back, people naturally became enthralled and drawn in by this character. Ever since his untimely demise in the sands of Tatooine, fans have been trying to build the legacy of this epic character. In the pre-Disney era, there was a lot to be said about Boba Fett and how he fit into the galaxy far, far away. Fans are always trying to figure out how to connect the world. With the new Book of Boba Fett series, a dark fan theory has resurfaced. However, is there any basis to it or just a bit of wishful thinking from the fan base? Did Boba Fett kill Uncle Owen and Aunt Beru Lars?!

Looking Back At 'Star Wars' In 2021
2021 seemed to me to be a somewhat muted year for the Star Wars franchise, with more of the major projects, like the upcoming Obi-Wan and Andor D+ series, and the third season of The Mandalorian, still in development and/or production. This, of course, does not mean that the franchise has gotten stagnant, far from it. It has continued expanding in every direction in terms of new books, comics, D+ series, and specials. This past year also saw Disney and Lucasfilm allowing Star Wars fans to rediscover some Legends content on D+.

Looking Back At The Best MCU Content From 2021
While Marvel has had to slow content production some due to the COVID-19 pandemic, 2021 was still an amazing year for Marvel fans with some pretty amazing series and movies being released. The content reignited the flame for Marvel stories that had waned for some fans in the time between mid-2021 and the release of Spider-Man: Far From Home in summer 2019. And, we got some pretty amazing stories to really jumpstart Phase Four of the Marvel Cinematic Universe (MCU).
