Despite Rogue One being shrouded in mystery most people have had the basic plot down from the beginning. Rebels lead by Jyn Erso steal the plans to the death star. But what if that isn’t exactly how it goes down? more “A Rogue Plot”

Weekly Star Wars Recap #54: August 29th 2016
Another week, another recap. While the speculation world has picked up, we are still looking for news. Not sure if people are sitting on information or if the sources have dried up but man is it a rough time in the news business of Star Wars. That said, we do have a few nuggets of newsy goodness. Lets jump into what we have.
More of Moroff: Everything we know about Moroff
Happy Friday, Star Wars fans! We’re here to take a first look at the new character Moroff in Star Wars Rogue One. Proceed with caution, as there could be potentially spoilery speculation below.
What does “The First Order” mean?
After writing an article on Snoke recently I started to think about some of the ideas that came from them. Namely that Snoke is from an older group of Darkside practitioners that monitored the Galaxy from the Unknown Regions. This got me thinking what exactly “The First Order” means. Lets explore it shall we.
Weekly Star Wars Recap #53: August 22nd 2016
Welcome back, dear readers! Well another slow week in Star Wars news doesn’t it feel like we knew most of TFA’s plot by now and we haven’t really learned that much about Rogue One… I wonder if People are protecting their sources or Lucasfilm has locked down things better than before? Anyhoo, let’s see what we got!
Nobody Saw Him Coming: Saw Gerrera
Before TFA was released there was quite a bit “Disney is going to ignore the prequels” talk. Some considered that a good thing some a bad. We now know that this just isn’t true, Rebels has brought back several Clone Wars characters and comics and novels have also delved into the prequels. Now with Saw Gerrera joining the live action in Rogue One we have a definite link from the prequel era on the big screen. Let’s dive into what makes Saw the best fit for this and why we are so excited to see him on the big screen.
Where does Finn fit in?
Weekly Star Wars Recap #52: August 15th 2016
One year in the bucket. One year of weekly recaps sometimes they were packed sometimes they had one story but we got them all out no matter what. I have to say I’m happy that we have a few offical stories to share this week. I’d say we were lucky but we don’t believe in luck around here.
Jedha: The most important moon in Star Wars?
It’s increasingly amazing how Lucasfilm and Diseny have kept such tight wraps on their current projects. Compared to This time last year with all the news and leaks that we had on The Force Awakens, we know next to nothing about Rogue One. There are a few new planets in this one, and we are starting to get a trickle of information about them. I think perhaps the most interesting is Jedha, which we’ll talk about today. There could be potential spoilers below, so tread carefully.
The past, the future, the truth about Rey.
Continuing our series on our new characters today we will be figuring out what is really up with Rey. We’ll look at theories discussing her past, who she’s related to, and what we think we’ll see for her arc. Like our article on Kylo and our articles on Snoke this will be a mix of review of other fans’ theories and our own original ideas. Potential Spoilers ahead.
Weekly Star Wars Recap #51: August 8th 2016
Another week another recap. Not a lot of new stories this week but what we do have focuses on Future Tv projects and Rogue One news. We expect Rogue One will be front and center until December so get hyped! Spoilers Ahead
The opening scene of Episode VIII
Star Wars Episode VIII is of course the highly anticipated and untitled follow-up to the enormously successful Star Wars: The Force Awakens. TFA is the movie that dominated fans’ minds and the box office, so its follow up has some high expectations. One question on my mind is: how will it begin exactly? How do you kick off the most anticipated sequel since Empire Strikes Back?
The Story of Kylo Ren
After writing about Snoke last week I got to thinking about the other new characters (Kylo, Rey, Finn and Poe) and where exactly they come from; Parentage, history, and what that means for the future. We’re going to highlight of one character each Wednesday for the next few weeks putting together what we know and what we suspect. As always possible spoilers ahead.
