    31 day star wars challenge, day 31: in which star wars inspires me …

    I really can’t think of any other piece of cinema or literature that has influenced me in the way that Star Wars has. It was my first love and remains a comfort for me. As I’ve gotten older, I’ve been able to look at it more critically than I did when I first saw it,…

    31 day star wars challenge, day 30: in which I discuss what I’d like to see next …

    I mean, I feel like this is a cheat post since there are about five million TV shows coming out soon, but hey, I’ll take a stab at this: I want to see more of the extended universe that was turned into Star Wars Legends become canon. I want me some Mara Jade, some Teneniel…

    31 day star wars challenge, day 29: in which I discuss prequels vs originals vs sequels …

    I am going to sum this up to avoid a tldr: I love the originals, the prequels are terrible yet enjoyable for the most part (almost in a spiteful way), and the sequels are … their own thing. Now for the longer version: It’s difficult to compare the three trilogies: they’re products of different times…

    31 day star wars challenge, day 28: in which I wish a character got more screen time …

    I have many questions about Mon Mothma, one of the only prominent female players in the original movies (other than Leia), and she didn’t even show up until Return of the Jedi. We know so little about her, even though she is a founder of the Rebellion: 1) where has she been for two movies…

    31 day star wars challenge, day 27: in which I have a favorite battle …

    I initially chose the Pit of Carkoon battle from Return of the Jedi as my favorite battle before I realized LOL I already used that as my favorite scene from the movie, so … I had to choose again and am going with Battle of Endor, again from Return of the Jedi. I know that…

    31 day star wars challenge, day 26: in which there is something I hate that everyone else loves …

    I get that Star Wars is supposedly made for kids, per those exact words coming out of George Lucas’ mouth, and that’s fine. Its universal appeal is why the fictional universe has managed to stay as popular as it has, despite the very egregious missteps they’ve made with a few of the films. But! That…

    31 day star wars challenge, day 25: in which there is something I love that everyone else hates …

    I know that the fandom hated The Last Jedi, but I do not care: I love it, for all of its faults. This Screen Crush article by sums up my feelings perfectly: we need to let go of the past and forge into territory that is frightening and unfamiliar. It’s what helps us grow. As…

    31 day star wars challenge, day 24: in which I have a favorite video game …

    Under normal circumstances, I might say that the first – or hell, even the second – Knights of the Old Republic game is my favorite, because yeah, normally it would be the correct statement. I’ve played that game so many times that I’ve lost count, and it’s even something I returned to recently when I…

    31 day star wars challenge, day 23: in which I have a favorite television series …

    There are so many television shows out now based on the Star Wars universe that it can be really difficult to narrow down what is your favorite. I haven’t seen The Bad Batch yet (although I plan on it, probably after I finish #horrorpalooza2021), and what I’ve seen of The Mandalorian is truly amazing work…

    31 day star wars challenge, day 22: in which I have a favorite one-shot movie …

    Rogue One: A Star Wars Story is not a perfect film, I understand. The first half of it is … lagging, we shall say. I wish it would have been presented as more of an event film than it was – I feel like they would have benefited from watching Ocean’s 11 and been like,…
