Star Wars is a science fiction franchise set in a universe far far away.
Why 'The Clone Wars: Crystal Crisis' Storyline Was Not Finished
While the release of the seventh season of The Clone Wars was considered a success and lauded by Star Wars fans for giving us one final blast of The Clone Wars years after the show was officially canceled, there were still several unfinished story-reel that remain unfinished. While some of them have been captured in other forms of media, such as the comic book series, Son of Dathomir, and the book, Dark Disciple, featuring Asajj Ventress and Jedi Knight Quinlan Vos, there are even more Clone Wars stories that still have yet to see the light of day.

What Boba Fett And Cad Bane's Scrapped Showdown Can Tell Us About The Future Of 'Star Wars'
From their interaction in The Book of Boba Fett, it is clear that Boba and the notorious bounty hunter Cad Bane have history. Cad Bane first appeared in The Clone Wars Season 4 Episode 15 "Deception" with a then-teenaged Boba when both of them were in prison together. Cad Bane bribed Boba to start a fight with an undercover Obi-Wan Kenobi. However, the most interesting story between these two characters has yet to be seen onscreen.

Biggest Unanswered Questions We Have From 'The Book Of Boba Fett'
The dust has now settled, and the twin suns of Tatooine are setting as The Book Of Boba Fett has reached its grand finale. There are certainly very mixed feelings out there on the series. Like The Last Jedi, The Book Of Boba Fett took a different approach to Star Wars storytelling. However, with The Book Of Boba Fett, a lot of that was the fact that the titular hero was not the main focus of every episode.

Why Obi-Wan Can't Win His Rematch Against Darth Vader
"When I left you, I was but the learner. Now I am the master." The fight between Obi-Wan Kenobi and Darth Vader in A New Hope is a primary example of how Star Wars has always gone back into its own timeline to make its best moments even more impactful. Through the prequel trilogy, The Clone Wars animated series, and the various comics and novels, we have seen the relationship between Obi-Wan and his reckless apprentice Anakin Skywalker evolve into a tragic story of a mentor and student torn apart by war, loss, fear, and distrust. This makes many Star Wars fans all the more shocked to hear that the upcoming Obi-Wan Kenobi series, headed by acclaimed Mandalorian director Deborah Chow, will have Obi-Wan and Darth Vader engage each other in another duel between the events of Revenge of the Sith and A New Hope.

You Won't Believe This Link Between 'The Mandalorian' And John Wayne
Star Wars really is a mixture of genres. Sci-Fi, Fantasy, Adventure and, weirdly enough, Western. Granted, not all of Star Wars feels like a Space Western, but there are aspects that do. And this can be seen most in the original Star Wars, The Mandalorian and recently, The Book of Boba Fett. Funnily enough these three feature a certain planet: Tatooine. A desert world in the Outer Rim. In a Western, this would be the "frontier." With outlaws, gunslingers, bounty hunters, bars/cantinas, with the law just barely holding on, like a kite dancing in a hurricane. Westerns may have gone out of popularity in cinema, but they have left a lasting impact.

Last week was the season finale of The Book of Boba Fett. While it was a good series, it left many questions unanswered. That was fine because it allowed the fans to speculate on where the story will go. While Boba, Fennec, Krrsantan, and the mods were standing around chatting at the end of the episode, I could not help but think, now what? He accomplished his goal, rid Tatooine of the Pykes, killed Cad Bane, ousted the mayor of Mos Espa, and secured his seat on the throne. Does Boba live happily ever after on Tatooine? Let’s look at the options after the season finale of The Book of Boba Fett.

'Kenobi' Star States Series Is 'Really Going To Satisfy Star Wars Fans'
Of all of the numerous Star Wars shows coming up on Disney+, none have the hype behind them that the Obi-Wan Kenobi miniseries does, outside of maybe the upcoming third season of The Mandalorian. The six-episode miniseries will focus on the titular character after his self-imposed exile on Tatooine after the events of Revenge of the Sith but before A New Hope.

RUMOR: Is Daisy Ridley Returning To 'Star Wars'?
It has been 3 years since we last saw Daisy Ridley’s Rey in The Rise of Skywalker. The 9th mainline Star Wars film brought an end to the Skywalker Saga. Many fans believed this would be the last time we would see Rey, Finn, or Poe in Star Wars. Several of the cast have voiced their displeasure with the sequel trilogy, and it didn’t seem likely any of the cast would be reappearing any time soon. According to a new rumor, however, Daisy Ridley may not be hanging up her lightsaber for good.

When Might We See Qi'ra On Screen Again?
In the aftermath of the finale of The Book of Boba Fett, many Star Wars fans are wondering if we'll ever see the character of Qi'ra from Solo: A Star Wars Story on screen again. For those who don't know, Qi'ra was brought back into the canon story of Star Wars last year with Charles Soule's comic miniseries, The War of the Bounty Hunters. In said miniseries, we saw Boba Fett lose the carbonite frozen Han Solo to Crimson Dawn between the events of The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. Under their new leader, Lady Qi'ra, Crimson Dawn auctioned off the smuggler to the galaxy's biggest crime syndicates. This ultimately ended with Darth Vader arriving to crash the auction, as Fett reclaimed his bounty and brought him to Jabba the Hutt on Tatooine.
