Young Ahsoka Look Familiar? Here's Where You've Seen Ariana Greenblatt Before
WARNING: SPOILERS for Ahsoka 1x05, 'Shadow Warrior' Star Wars fans are once again singing the praises of Dave Filoni following the fifth episode of Ahsoka.

Why Ahsoka's Easy Defeat Of Marrok Makes Perfect Sense
WARNING!: SPOILERS for Ahsoka episode 4, 'Fallen Jedi' For the first few episodes of Ahsoka, fan theories ran rife about the identity of the masked villain Marrok. Many assumed that the mask, followed by a voice changer used by Marrok in episode three, meant that Marrok had to be a character we already knew. Some believed Marrok would be revealed as the missing Ezra Bridger, having fallen to the Dark Side following his disappearance in the final episode of Star Wars: Rebels. Others thought he may be Galen Marek/Starkiller, Darth Vader's secret Apprentice from the Force Unleashed video games, thus setting up a confrontation between Anakin Skywalker's Jedi and Sith apprentices.

'A Long Line Of Non-Traditional Jedi': Looking Back At Ahsoka's Jedi Lineage
In the third episode of Ahsoka, Sabine Wren's training as Ahsoka Tano's Padawan Learner officially resumes. Despite Sabine's Mandalorian heritage giving her a natural affinity for weapon work, she struggles with other aspects of becoming a Jedi, most notably, the use of the Force. The droid Huyang, who's original function was to help Jedi Younglings build their first lightsaber, and train them in proper saber form, tells Ahsoka that the pre-Empire Jedi Order would not have accepted Sabine, but then goes on to admit that the Jedi line through which Ahsoka descends were not exactly traditional either.

Want To Support The SAG-AFTRA Strike? Some Important DOs and DON'Ts
Hollywood has officially ground to a halt. The failure from the Alliance of Motion Picture and Television Producers (AMPTP) to meet the new contract terms set forth by the Screen Actors Guild - American Federation of Television and Radio Artists (Aka SAG-AFTRA), has prompted the latter organisation to join the Writer's Guild of America on Strike. While many projects had already pressed pause due to the Writer's Strike, SAG-AFTRA's Strike means that actors belonging to the Screen Actor's Guild have stopped work, and therefore nearly all Film and Television production has ceased. Guild actors will also not promote past or upcoming work as long as the Strike continues, which means no glitzy Red Carpet premieres, or talk show appearances.
