Movie Reviews and Previews Merely whelmed by The Last Jedi It’s a day for final trailers. Star Wars: The Last Jedi also released their final trailer, and it’s very red. Red, and all about Kylo Ren being the biggest bag of dicks in this or any other galaxy. My interest in The Last Jedi has waned with previous By Sarah • Oct 10, 2017 11:20 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Star Wars says hello and goodbye Star Wars: The Last Jedi covers this week’s Entertainment Weekly, to remind us that not every Star Wars film is a behind-the-scenes clusterf*ck. The Last Jedi, in fact, is the smoothest operation LucasFilm has run in this new Disney era. It’s kind of nice to have this By Sarah • Aug 10, 2017 02:47 pm
Movie Reviews and Previews Star Wars Family This past weekend was Disney biennial fan convention, D23, and among the many things they showed off—they see Universal’s Harry Potter Land and will raise you Avatar Land, Star Wars Land, and Marvel Land—was Star Wars: The Last Jedi. Star Wars is not expected to be among By Sarah • Jul 17, 2017 09:58 am
Movie Reviews and Previews New New Star Wars has fabulous hair and diverse faces Star Wars: The Last Jedi covers Vanity Fair for June, once again photographed by Annie Leibovitz. There are four covers: one for the Jedi (Rey and Luke Skywalker), one for the villains (Captain Phasma, General Hux, and that emo punk Kylo Ren), one for the scrappy rebels (Poe Dameron, Finn, By Sarah • May 23, 2017 10:05 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Disney Tom Hardy Look! Tom Hardy in mouse ears! Tom was at Disneyland, Paris today for the launch of Star Wars: Season Of The Force. Which is interesting because there are rumours that he makes a cameo in the next Star Wars, opening in December. Yesterday they revealed that the official title is By Lainey • Jan 24, 2017 10:38 am
Movie Reviews and Previews “When the time is right” or …not right now? Last December, Star Wars began a new era of storytelling with The Force Awakens and this year it expands that story with a new cohort of rebels and heroes in Rogue One. What these movies have in common, besides the galaxy far far away, are two things: 1) Inclusive casts, By Sarah • Nov 29, 2016 09:31 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Rogue One goes on sale Here’s Felicity Jones at Good Morning America today. Thanksgiving is over. So it’s now a two week push for everyone, pretty much in every industry, to blast out as much work as possible before things start slowing down for the Christmas holiday. At the movies, that means we’ By Lainey • Nov 28, 2016 11:47 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Can we stop worrying about Rogue One? A new trailer for Rogue One just came out and goddamn it’s good. Between some pretty incredible visuals—that fallen Jedi monument legit gave me a chill—to the haunting variation on the famous theme, to the rousing rebellion story it’s laying out, this looks like a damn By Sarah • Oct 13, 2016 11:50 am
Movie Reviews and Previews Star Wars Celebration and hope for Rogue One Star Wars Celebration, a sort of mini-Comic Con dedicated solely to all things Star Wars, was held in London over the weekend. (There won’t be a Hall H Star Wars presentation this year, and one wonders how long before Disney starts doing this for Marvel, too.) There wasn’t By Sarah • Jul 18, 2016 02:16 pm
Star Wars Intro for April 20, 2016 Dear Gossips, As we’ve seen, Beyoncé knows how to hold back, make us miss her. You know who doesn’t know how – or want – to hold back and make you (not me) miss him? The Kardashian of Droids, BB-8. Not a week goes by without BB-8 meeting a dignitary By Lainey • Apr 20, 2016 09:32 am
Royals Harry & Daisy…!? I opened with Princes William and Harry visiting the Star Wars Episode VIII set today at Pinewood Studios outside of London. Here are some more shots of them with the cast, including John Boyega and Daisy Ridley. I don’t see any shots of Harry and Daisy side by side. By Lainey • Apr 19, 2016 01:55 pm
Royals Intro for April 19, 2016 Dear Gossips, Last week was all about Will and Kate’s trip to India and Bhutan. And I realised this weekend that I hadn’t posted a single article about it. Every day I looked at some new shots. And every day, beyond mentioning that her shoe game is just By Lainey • Apr 19, 2016 09:40 am
Quiveration Oscar reads Let me tell off the top that I don’t have video for this and I’M SORRY, I can’t find it. I am as disappointed as you are. Because I’d probably rub one out to Oscar Isaac reading too. We do have pictures though? Does that work? By Lainey • Mar 14, 2016 11:41 am
Movie Reviews and Previews The Rising Star gets back to work John Boyega won the BAFTA Rising Star Award last night. And he was dressed for it, looking sharp in a black velvet suit. I love his reaction when he got up to collect his trophy – a wide open-mouthed WHOA! as he was buttoning up his jacket. Understandable, non? He was By Lainey • Feb 15, 2016 11:52 am
Star Wars Well look who it is Industrial Light & Magic was presented with the Genius Award at Critics’ Choice last night. I’ve been to ILM in San Francisco. It’s an amazing facility. Yoda’s all over the place there, as he should be. And if he’d come out on stage to share the By Lainey • Jan 18, 2016 04:48 pm
Star Wars The Force in China Every day there’s a new headline about all the records that Star Wars: The Force Awakens has been breaking.
