The moment you have all been waiting for: The #1 movie in the ‘Star Wars’ saga… Coming off of one of the biggest blockbusters of all time (the film we refer to now as A New Hope), George Lucas was given clairvoyance to produce two more ‘Star Wars’ movies in order to round out a […]
The movie that started it all. In the early 70s, George Lucas began working on a film entitled Star Wars: The Adventures of Luke Starkiller as taken from the “Journal of the Whills”. Yes, the title was a bit odd, but that’s not why people in the industry thought George Lucas was so crazy. The […]
I said a few weeks ago that Rogue One was the most fun movie for me to review. However, The Last Jedi is the movie that I have undoubtedly been looking forward to reviewing the most. With back-to-back home runs in The Force Awakens and Rogue One, it seemed as if Disney had really nailed […]
The Force Awakens came out in December of 2015. It had been 10 years since the last ‘Star Wars’ movie was released and 32 years since the last good ‘Star Wars’ movie was released. The hiatus was tough on fans, considering, for many years, it was never a guarantee that we would get to reconnect […]
Out of all the ‘Star Wars’ movies on this list, this one might be the most fun to review. After the box office juggernaut that was Star Wars: The Force Awakens, Lucasfilm decided to go down a rather different path. Episode VII was a very familiar story, involving very familiar plot points with very familiar […]
This is also where the list gets a little bit dicey… The Empire Strikes Back left fans speechless. Up until that point, sequels had commonly been nothing more than money-grabs. They would follow roughly the same plot with the same characters, and they got away with it because executives knew people would flock to see […]
Here we go: The final chapter of the Prequel Trilogy and the final Prequel Trilogy film reviewed by yours truly. Just as a reminder, The Phantom Menace and Attack of the Clones garnered scores of 53 and 54, respectively. These two installments were underwhelming, to say the least, but George Lucas truly stepped up when […]
This is where the list gets a little bit dicey… Coming off the heels of the most polarizing ‘Star Wars’ movie to date (The Last Jedi), fans weren’t necessarily dying to head back into theaters to see Solo: A Star Wars Story. Not to mention, this movie was released in May–only five months after Episode […]
The Phantom Menace was easily the biggest slap in the face to diehard ‘Star Wars’ fans. After 16 years apart from the galaxy far, far away, they were treated to what many viewed as an utter disgrace to the franchise. Some fans liked it more than others, but there was a definitive consensus that this […]
This movie is easily one of the most anticipated films in cinema history, and it’s also one of the most disappointing films in cinema history. George Lucas had created A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi back in the late 70s/early 80s. This trilogy was outrageously successful because each film within […]
