How Star Wars Should Have Ended (the entire series)
Here it is, in one place. Every Star Wars video made by HISHE (How It Should Have Ended), up through Star Wars: The Last Jedi, or maybe Solo, if it’s up yet. If you haven’t discovered this web series, you’re in for a treat. Keep in mind that their solutions would offer vastly shortened movies,…

Movie Review – Hotel Artemis
This is one stylish mess. It’s got the noir notes, the off-kilter sensibilities, and a big muddled stew of a plot. Let me mull on this review a bit. Movie Grade: C+ Alrighty. After due thought, I still think Hotel Artemis is trying for something it just didn’t reach. But I’ve got a sense it might…

Tips for Seeing Star Wars: Galaxy’s Edge from Disneyland
Scheduled to open in 2019, Disney will open Galaxy’s Edge, an ENTIRE LAND devoted to Star Wars. You can’t see much of it right now, and the things you can see are a little hard to parse. Basically, you’re seeing the background spires of a alien city, on an strange new world. Galaxy’s Edge seems…

But I hope you don’t expect anything more than a template of a story to support it. The first hour of this movie plays like it was written with some basic storytelling application.…

Sand: A Star Wars Story (Darth Vader Hates This Song)
When I first heard this song about Star Wars and Sand, I played it a few times and realized it was way too catchy — impossible to tune out. But it’s so darn cute I don’t mind having the Force bouncing around in my skull for a spell. The funny thing, in the wake of…

Is Deadpool in the Avengers’ Universe?
It’s established that Deadpool swims in his own little eddy in the great Marvel River. Marvel is a pretty big entertainment property, spanning The X-Men (including Deadpool as their R-rated step-child), the MCU, the comics, and a whole host of related TV shows falling under the franchise’s umbrella. It’s not a free-for-all, though it seems…

Solo: A Star Wars Party in San Diego
Last night Solo: A Star Wars Story splashed across screens in the US, to much excitement and fanfare. Everyone loves Harrison Ford’s Han, so people were excited and curious to see a different actor’s take on the iconic character.
