One of Steven Spielberg’s favorite Star Wars movies may surprise you, as it currently only boasts a 61% critic score and a 56% audience score on Rotten Tomatoes. Though the original Star Wars trilogy is widely hailed as one of the most impactful and best fantasy fiction movie trilogies ever made, George Lucas’ prequel trilogy didn’t fare as well when the films were first released in theaters. Criticism included the characters being too childish, wooden acting, and unnecessary storylines. 5x5125

One year after their first on-screen fight, Asajj Ventresswill yet again be facing off against a beloved group ofcharacters in a new Star Warsstory. It was in 2024 that the iconic villain known for her role in Star Wars: The Clone Wars returned to the small screen in Star Wars: The Bad Batchseason 3, revealing that Ventress had survived her supposed death in the 2015 canon novel Dark Disciple by Christie Golden.

Andor sits triumphantly among the highest echelons of Star Wars media, but its timeline placement makes it a poor fit to inspire the long-requested Battlefront 3. The gripping spy thriller series succeeds in nearly all of its facets all the way through the incredible second season, but it does so in spite of largely lacking the bombastic action the Battlefront games depend on. Between Pandemic Studios' and DICE's four main Battlefront entries, much of the Skywalker Saga has been covered, and a third game to follow 2017's Battlefront 2 would likely move away from the setting that makes Andor so compelling.

John Boyega is one of the biggest names in Star Wars, but after how the sequel trilogy handled Finn, I thought I understood how he felt about the franchise—and I'll be the first to it, I couldn't have been more wrong. It's no secret that the sequel trilogy represents some of the most highly criticized projects of all Star Wars movies and TV shows. Although Star Wars: The Force Awakens opened to plenty of fanfare, that quickly devolved into intense backlash and criticism, much of it targeting the cast and characters.

Pé Amidalaactress Natalie Portman has once again addressed a possible Star Warsreturn. Pé is one of Star Wars' best characters, but outside animated appearances in shows like Star Wars: The Clone Wars, she hasn't been on screen since Star Wars: Episode III - Revenge of the Sith. Yes, she died in that movie, but Star Wars movies and TV shows are no strangers to jumping around in the Star Wars timeline and exploring other stories. For that reason, many have been hoping to see Natalie Portman's return to Star Wars, and it's suddenly seeming more likely than ever.

Hayden Christensen’s favorite Star Wars character didn’t like Anakin Skywalker much – he even almost killed the Jedi Knight once. Though the Star Wars galaxy is incomprehensibly vast, it can sometimes feel surprisingly small. Characters you thought would never cross paths often do, especially in secondary Star Wars stories like Star Wars: The Clone Wars, altering our understanding of other Star Wars narratives and character dynamics. The same applies to Anakin Skywalker and Hayden Christensen’s favorite Star Wars character.

Andor showrunner Tony GIlroy has addressed discourse surrounding a fandom discussion that links to his past Star Wars work on Rogue One, raising the question of whether his assessment to "reorient their thinking" is correct. Andor season 2's ending has caused many to revisit Rogue One now that the 2016 film has been completely recontextualized. Not only has Andor season 2's cast of characters fleshed out some appearances in Rogue One, but the overall expansion of the Rebel Alliance's timeline makes the original trilogy era of the franchise all the better.

You could be forgiven for thinking we're back in the mid-2000s, because fans are once again demanding a Star Wars Battlefront 3. The series seems to have taken a page out of Valve's book and is incapable of reaching a third entry, but interest in the 2017 Star Wars Battlefront 2 has surged, and many think the attention justifies a third installment finally coming to fruition.

With the new canon of the Star Wars franchise exploring the period immediately following Return of The Jedi, fans are already looking forward to a new 'sequel era' to the original trilogy. And the first truly shocking revelation has arrived, revealing a strange new power in the palm of Luke Skywalker's hand. Ancient, mysterious, and from the look of Luke's horrified screaming, a power he won't be looking to keep.
