A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away, George Lucas created Star Wars, an epic space opera that became a massive franchise. Well, to be fair, this statement is only half true. While Lucas created the franchise in the 1970s, it all started here on Earth. Inspired by other space sci-fi media like Buck Rogers in the 25th Century and Flash Gordon, he set out to create his own space opera. Little did he know that it would become one of the highest-grossing media franchises of all time. Although the series is decades old, the Star Wars hype has never died down. Beyond the original, prequel, and sequel trilogies, we’ve seen the release of countless TV shows and video games and the announcement of plenty of prospective projects in the works. The Core Star Wars Film Saga The core nine films, beginning with A New Hope in 1977,…
Mental Health in the Galaxy: Could CBD Help With Jedi Burnout?
Jedi burnout is real. Sure, it’s not listed in the Revised Core Rulebook, and you won’t hear Yoda talk about “self-care Sundays,” but if you’ve watched any Star Wars content for more than five minutes, it’s clear that the Jedi Order has some serious mental health blind spots. Between suppressing emotions, being constantly at war, mentoring unpredictable Padawans, and occasionally battling Sith Lords with a lightsaber and some guilt, the Jedi lifestyle isn’t exactly restful. If ever there were a galactic group in desperate need of modern stress support, it’s the Jedi. Which raises the question: could CBD help with Jedi burnout? Could a little endocannabinoid balance have saved Mace Windu from constant frowning or helped Anakin chill just enough to not fall to the dark side? Let’s explore. 💥 What Is Jedi Burnout, Exactly? First, let’s define Jedi burnout in a metaphorical sense—because sadly, there’s no clinical diagnosis for…

Celebrating Julian Glover at 90: The Man Who Faced Vader, Indy, and a Giant Spider
Turning 90 is a milestone by any measure. But turning 90 after spending decades portraying some of the most iconic characters in cinema and television history? That’s the Julian Glover way. Today, we celebrate the legendary British actor who, over the course of his career, has managed to get crushed by Darth Vader, outwitted by Indiana Jones, betrayed by a magical cup, and voice a spider that made an entire generation deeply uncomfortable with forests. Not bad for someone whose IMDb reads like a geek culture tour. 🛡️ General Veers: Calm Under (AT-AT) Fire Let’s start with the galaxy far, far away. Glover made his Star Wars debut as General Maximilian Veers in The Empire Strikes Back (1980). While he only had a handful of scenes, they were unforgettable.

The actor died peacefully in Los Angeles, leaving behind a legacy that extended far beyond a single role, but forever etched into the lore of a galaxy far, far away. A Key Voice in Star Wars History Revill’s role in The Empire Strikes Back was relatively brief, yet pivotal.

Appearing via hologram to Darth Vader, the character’s eerie presence…
Did Star Wars Ignite a Global Surge in Space Slots?
1977 was the magical year that Star Wars began. A notion conceived by George Lucas, Star Wars began long ago in a galaxy far, far away.

A Rocky Start: SWTOR’s Galactic Season 6 Stumbles Out of the Gate
Well, the new Galactic Season in Star Wars: The Old Republic has officially launched—and let’s just say, it didn’t exactly arrive with the elegance of a Jedi meditation circle. Instead, it crash-landed like a smuggler’s freighter with one engine on fire and the landing gear missing. The rollout of Galactic Season 6 has left more than a few players scratching their heads, or, more accurately, shouting into general chat.

Celebrating 6 Years Since the Capital Supremacy Update in Star Wars Battlefront II
Hard to believe, but it’s been six years since Star Wars Battlefront II dropped one of its most ambitious updates: Capital Supremacy. Released in March 2019, this massive free update didn’t just add some flashy new characters or fresh cosmetics—it redefined how large-scale combat felt in the game, brought meaningful quality-of-life improvements, and gave players a chance to live out full-on Clone Wars fantasies with ARC Troopers, Commando Droids, and some serious battlefield chaos.

Jedi Outcast Turns 22: Celebrating the Game That Let Everyone Feel Like a Real Jedi
On this day in 2002, a Star Wars game was released that did something few others had truly pulled off: it made wielding a lightsaber actually feel good. Star Wars Jedi Knight II: Jedi Outcast launched on March 26, 2002, and whether it was slicing through stormtroopers or force-pushing enemies off ledges just because you could, it was an experience that stuck with players long after the credits rolled.

Why Genndy Tartakovsky’s Clone Wars Finale Still Shines 20 Years Late
The year was 2005. “Revenge of the Sith” hadn’t hit theaters yet, but something else had fans nervously adjusting their Padawan braids.
