Mark Hamill Finally Picked Up His Power Converters In Hilarious Twitter Post
It might have taken Luke Skywalker more than 40 years, but he finally got those power converters. Ever since Luke's iconic whininess appeared in A New Hope, fans have poked fun at this Star Wars inside joke. It's a line easy to mock. One of the more lighthearted and memorable lines from A New Hope. Even Robot Chicken took a crude shot at it. And now Mark Hamill himself is in on it. Just like how Hayden Christensen acknowledges the funny awkwardness of the "I don't like sand" quote, Mark Hamill took to twitter with a photoshopped image of himself standing in front of Tosche Station, gleefully holding a power converter:

Moff Gideon's Cruiser Scenes In 'The Mandalorian' Used A 5-Foot Long Model
The history of camera tricks and filming secrets utilized in the galaxy far, far away is long, with many different tricks used to make the magic of the original movies and every subsequent installment. The Mandalorian has been breaking a lot of new ground with the things possible within Star Wars now, but it also seems intent on keeping with all the normal Star Wars traditions to keep Star Wars...well, Star Wars. While the photos of the mic operators wearing pink shorts have been making their rounds, long time fans will be happy to know that this is not the only tradition behind the camera that is being kept. Moff Gideon's Light Cruiser 5 is actually filmed by using a 5 foot shooting model, very much akin to the shooting models used during the original trilogy.

'The Mandalorian' Season 3 Cannot Release Until 2022
The Mandalorian season 2 left many fans very satisfied and emotional. Given what happened in the finale, a big moment that feels very much like it could have been an end of an entire series type moment, fans were at first scratching their heads, wondering what was next for the storyline, if it was indeed continuing. When the post-credit scene announced The Book of Boba Fett coming to Disney+ in December 2021, some fans spent the weekend speculating that this was the title of season 3, with The Mandalorian shifting gears by closing one book and opening another. Of course, we know now that the Boba Fett show is a separate series, and we have known that The Mandalorian season 3 would for sure be happening. But when will it come out?

'Star Wars: The Book of Boba Fett' Logo Revealed
Star Wars fans were recently treated to a climactic finale to The Mandalorian season 2. After waiting to receive an answer as to whether or not Grogu would be trained, and by whom, viewers were given that answer and more. True to his word, Boba Fett ensured the safety of the child in exchange for the return of his armor. He hopped into his ship, created a distraction that let our heroes land aboard Moff Gideon's vessel, and jumped into lightspeed right into his own Disney+ TV series. Those that saw the post-credit stinger at the end of the episode got to see a hint of what is to come: a return to Jabba's Palace on Tatooine where a bloated Bib Fortuna sat where Jabba once did. Boba claimed the seat with his accomplice Fennec Shand finding a perch on the arm rest, right before we cut to the new title that you can find below: The Book of Boba Fett.

You have probably heard of 'We Got This Covered' and seen much of their headlines on your newsfeed or in some of the groups you have been in. For some reason, their articles spread like wildfire, even though what they report often lacks validity. So what is one of their most recent reports, you may be asking? Well, this one pertains to The Mandalorian. Specifically, it pertains to Gina Carano, who has stirred controversy on Twitter by mocking the inclusion of gender pronouns via her use of "Beep/Bop/Boop" in her Twitter bio and shared anti-mask memes.

How The Star Wars Starcruiser Hotel Will Be Hidden From Plain Sight
We have come a really long way. When Disney bought Star Wars in 2012, people wondered about how this would affect the franchise. One obvious guess at the time would have been the expansion of more things related to Star Wars at the Disney parks. We have since seen the creation and completion of Galaxy's Edge, a portion of the parks that makes one feel that they are within the Star Wars galaxy, even with Black Spire Outpost being on Batuu, a planet that was, by and large, unfamiliar all the fans. It would have been easy to model Galaxy's Edge after Mos Eisley, but the people behind Galaxy's Edge figured out how to make this place feel like Star Wars.

'Star Wars' Fans Have Just Recently Heard Harrison Ford's Priceless Response To Force Ghost Question
Yes, even a year later, we are still talking about Star Wars: Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker. Though, to be fair, there is a quote from an interview about the movie that has, strangely, not spread a whole lot across the internet until recently. This interview with Harrison Ford was published by USA Today all the way back in February. More like USA Yesterday in this instance, am I right? (Okay, that was a lame joke. I apologize.)
