Mando

Image via IMDb The Star Wars Universe is ever expanding, much like our own, and the introduction of new characters in the Disney series has led people to wonder who could take on who, and what would the outcomes be. Despite existing years before Ben Solo’s birth, many wonder if Din Djarin from The Mandalorian could ever take on the unhinged yet powerful Kylo Ren. Now, both of them are strong characters in their own right, having taken on formidable foes and survived numerous threats to their lives. We have a…

The Mandalorian and Grogu. Image: LucasfilmTime in Star Wars is rarely a cut and dried thing. Even from its legendary opener of “A long time ago in a galaxy far, far away,” specifics can be rather vague. That’s not the case, though, when you’re telling stories between other stories.

Luke Skywalker will die, the dead will speak, etc.So it’s…

Grogu is hungry. As usual. Screenshot: LucasfilmIn two short weeks, audiences everywhere will once again be flying across the galaxy with The Mandalorian. Season 3 of the hit Star Wars show returns March 1 and the first clip from the new season just debuted in Apple’s App Store. Which is a little weird. But the clip itself is not. In fact, it very succinctly lays out what’s going on both on the show, and with the show. Let us explain.When last we saw The Mandalorian on The Mandalorian, Luke Skywalker came and took his…

Din Djarin (The Last of Us‘s Pedro Pascal) and Grogu reunite and navigate the galaxy in the trailer for The Mandalorian season 3, which Lucasfilm released during Monday night’s NFL playoff game. At the end of season 2, Mando left Grogu in the hands of Luke Skywalker (Star Wars’ Mark Hamill). However, the bounty hunter and “Baby Yoda” reunited in The Book of Boba Fett. In season 3, Mando and Grogu head to Mandalore so that Din “may be forgiven for his transgressions.” According to the logline, Mando will encounter…

Both brothers (who are 93 and 85) were on hand, as were performers notable for their work in the duo’s colorfully weird, puppet-filled, fantastically psychedelic children’s shows, including H.R. Pufnstuf, Land of the Lost, Lidsville, and Sigmund and the Sea Monsters.…

Image: Lego/LucasfilmWith mild apologies to Din Djarin’s modified N1 Naboo Starfighter, we’ll always consider the Razor Crest to be the bounty hunter’s true ship. Lego hopes you feel the same—or at least close enough to shell out $600 galactic credits to purchase this new Ultimate Collector Series version of The Mandalorian’s ST-70 class M-111 Assault Ship. Like other entries in Lego’s high-end line, it’s enormous, incredibly detailed, and most impressive. Check it out! Image: Lego/LucasfilmWith mild apologies to Din…
