It is a period of civil war. It is late 2017. Colin Trevorrow (Jurassic World) has been fired from Episode IX after having been hired two years prior only to be replaced by JJ Abrams (Star Wars: The Force Awakens) the same month, with Chris Terrio (Argo) acting as co-writer. Cut to December, (and although…

Once again, Rick Famuyiwa (Dope) has treated us to a masterful adventure in the far reaches of the Star Wars galaxy. With the Mandalorian joining some old not so friendly comrades, this episode does not fail to excite and entertain.

A worthy follow-up to the inaugural episode, the second chapter of The Mandalorian builds upon its predecessor in nearly every aspect. ‘Chapter 2’ takes the series in a slightly different direction. Rather than sharing the first episode’s indulgence in "badass" moments, this episode feels much more subtle and softspoken. This is not to say there…
For as long as Star Wars took to be the pop-culture behemoth that it is today, many have wondered if the brand could push borders outside of film. Holiday specials and Ewok spin-offs were the first to test those waters and their infamous tribulations are now but a memory enter The Mandalorian. Lucasfilm has already…

Invader Zim has always been a unique kind of phenomenon. Upon its release in 2001, the show immediately set itself apart from everything else airing on television at the time; its bizarre sense of humor, dark subject matter, and deranged animation and art style all led to high praise from critics and audiences alike. The series…
