Back on the blog again......

I've decided to start blogging once again. It's been 18 months since my last post and a lot has happened in that time. Nothing to worry about though, we are all well and doing stuff but the blog just had to take a back seat.


I am probably going to make a short retrospective catch up post at some point and you might find me backfilling the odd event that I consider worthy of inclusion. Just remember that these will be posted on dates that things happened so you'll have to work backward from some of that juicy detail *grins*.

 Things might start to look a bit different going forwards, I am unlikely to be posting on a daily basis anymore but there will be regular updates

Biggest Unanswered Questions We Have From 'The Book Of Boba Fett'


The dust has now settled, and the twin suns of Tatooine are setting as The Book Of Boba Fett has reached its grand finale. There are certainly very mixed feelings out there on the series. Like The Last Jedi, The Book Of Boba Fett took a different approach to Star Wars storytelling. However, with The Book Of Boba Fett, a lot of that was the fact that the titular hero was not the main focus of every episode.

‘Star Wars’ Reveals Why The First Order Didn't Blow Up Coruscant In ‘The Force Awakens’

Coruscant is an ecumenopolis planet (where the cities have merged into one city across the whole planet) located in the Core Worlds quadrant region of the Star Wars universe. The first mention of Coruscant was in 1991 in the Timothy Zahn novel Heir To The Empire, but it didn’t make its screen debut until 1997 when it appeared at the end of the Return Of The Jedi special edition.

Why 'Peacemaker' Is The Best DC TV Show To Date

DC movies have always been quite epic and dark and often lacking humor. Enter James Gunn and The Suicide Squad. James Gunn not only managed to keep the dark and gritty DC feel while injecting a bucket load of humor into the mix. The Suicide Squad was to DC what Guardians of the Galaxy was to Marvel. This writer was very excited when it was announced that James Gunn would be taking on a spin-off television show using the Peacemaker character.

The Reason Why Luke's Lightsaber Changed From Blue To Green In 'Return Of The Jedi'

In A New Hope and The Empire Strikes Back, lightsabers were presented as either blue or red. Obi-Wan Kenobi's lightsaber had a blue blade, which became associated with the Jedi, as did the one that he gave to Luke Skywalker. Darth Vader, however, had a red lightsaber, which then became forever associated with the Sith. This all changed in Return of the Jedi when Luke Skywalker had built himself a new lightsaber. His new lightsaber broke away from the established color standard that everyone had come to expect as this one was green. However, all of the original posters and promotional material for Return of the Jedi had Luke Skywalker using the traditional blue-bladed lightsaber. Luke Skywalker's blue lightsaber even made it into the trailers. Based on this you can imagine the audience’s surprise when the actual film had Luke Skywalker using a green-bladed lightsaber rather than a blue one.
