All 12 'Star Wars' Movies Ranked From Worst to Best!
After the release of The Rise of Skywalker, I figured that it was time to update my ranking of the Star Wars films. But then, I had to postpone it because I realized there was a certain Star Wars theatrical release that I hadn't seen yet.

'The Mandalorian': Season 1 Review
I have never written a review for a series before simply because I prefer watching and reviewing films, but since I got Disney+ and I'm a major Star Wars nerd, I decided that it was time to start reviewing a show. And I picked the perfect one.

"The Mandalorian" is Perfect.
There is absolutely nothing NOT to like about Disney's "The Mandalorian" on Disney Plus. It literally checks all the boxes. The show manages to be gritty without being too dark, while making you feel all warm and fuzzy without being cheesy. It's scientifically designed to psychologically push all the right buttons. A badass bounty hunter battles to save an adorable, force wielding, Baby Yoda from what's left of the Imperial forces.

'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker'—A Spoiled Review

Rise and Shine
There’s a meme going around online of Doctor Manhattan, the man-made god from Alan Moore’s “Watchmen”. He’s staring up at the stars in the sky, while three captions float around him. The captions read “It is May 25, 1983, and I am about to watch the last Star Wars movie”, “It is May 19, 2005, and I am about to watch the last Star Wars movie”, and “It is December 20, 2019, and I am about to watch the last Star Wars movie”. The lesson of the story being that there will never be such a thing as “the last Star Wars movie”, because its success won’t allow there to be a last movie. Now in the hands of Disney, it will be milked for profit until the end of time itself. Chances are, you will be dead before there is truly a “last Star Wars movie”. But for those in denial, we have what is being promoted as “the last chapter of the Skywalker saga”, a supposed conclusion to a story arc going back 42 years. Did Disney stick the landing, or will it have people wishing this was indeed the “last Star Wars movie”, period?

Kylo Ren And Rey A Forceful Couple
In writing this, there could be The Rise Of Skywalker spoilers, so please, consider yourself warned. Onward. I've been a fan of the Star Wars saga since I was a kid. The film that started it all bowed in 1977 when I was just four years old, and I've been hooked ever since, with it being the series I turn to when I need something to bring me comfort and peace of mind.

Review of 'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker'
So here's where I am regarding the nine episodes of Star Wars: I thought the first trilogy, by George Lucas, was fabulous -- every bit as good, and maybe even better, than the other trilogy of that era, The Godfather (the third part of which, coming along almost 20 years later in 1990, not as good as the first two). And I thought, contrary to a lot of critics, that the second Star Wars trilogy, also by George Lucas, in the movie theaters at the turn of the 20th into our 21st century and a little after, was every bit as good as the first trilogy, and at times even better.

'Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker' Review—A Crowd-Pleasing Finale
At this point, I'm almost afraid to have an opinion on a Star Wars movie, but given that the final installment in the Skywalker saga has been released, I figured that it is time for us all to hold our breaths, brace ourselves, and watch a new Star Wars film.

'Star Wars: Rise Of Skywalker' A Fitting Close
I have been a fan of #StarWars my entire life. I was born in 1973, just four years before A New Hope bowed in theatres and sparked the craze that became a legend. If I saw the original Star Wars in theatres, I certainly don't remember it. Somehow, though, I was introduced to this now nine-part saga, and I've been hooked for most of my nearly-47 years.
