1+ hour, 26+ min ago (268+ words) Throughout its seven seasons, The Clone Wars visits just about every important corner of a galaxy far, far away, handing over the spotlight to the Republic's fighting force, as well as the threats that oppose it. However, the acclaimed series doesn't get to take every swing it wants. Here are all nine of the unfinished and abandoned The Clone Wars stories. The Legends continuity is home to plenty of terrifying creatures, including the Yuuzhan Vong, a race of beings immune to the Force. Lucasfilm wanted to bring them into canon in The Clone Wars by having a single member of the species commit an abduction. The Republic scrambles to get answers, but it knows very little about the new threat. Yoda reveals during'Revenge of the Sith'that he's a friend of the Wookiees, but doesn't explain the background of his statement....

4+ hour, 19+ min ago (533+ words) | December 7, 2025 | By: Anthony Pascale 0 comments so far Our successes were becoming ridiculously expected. There was a sense we could do no wrong. But when we first thought of making a movie out of the Star Trek series, which had ended ten years previously and had a relatively small audience, no one in Hollywood could believe that such great geniuses would try to take a middling, long-ago-canceled TV series and turn it into an actual movie. Our self-described "shiny-ass accountant," Art Barron, Paramount's chief financial officer, was obsessed with resurrecting Star Trek. Ever since I arrived at Paramount [in 1974], every once in a while, shyly, given his purely financial position, Art would say to us, "We ought to do something with Star Trek." And every time he brought it up, we ignored him. We thought it'd be ridiculous to make a…...

You can check out his latest on Twitter: @TalkingBull or on [] For over a single generation, LucasArts was the guardian of excellent games in the Star Wars franchise. Before the dark times, before the Disney acquisition. Yes, LucasArts developed some of the best games in the Star Wars franchise, but Disney ultimately scrapped it, creating a new entity called Lucasfilm Games. To be fair, under the new company, Electronic Arts and Disney Interactive Studios have created some fantastic games, but they're not in the LucasArts library. That leaves the Jedi Survivor and Fallen Order games out, though many…...

7+ hour, 56+ min ago (483+ words) One of the most fun parts of science fiction is that it often predicts the distant future. Many science fiction movies predict new technology and its effects on human society, whether those are dystopian, like the routine brainwashing via propaganda of A Clockwork Orange or fun new methods of transport, such as the hoverboards everyone had in Back to the Future. Some classic science fiction movies made sweeping predictions for the future. In some cases, those predictions never came to pass, but in others, the movies were strikingly on point. Predictions about AI are especially relevant in the post-ChatGPT age, but there are also many other reasons why some science fiction movies were ahead of their time. A Clockwork Orange is one of the most frequently banned science fiction movies in recent years because of the story's violence. Although the…...

8+ hour, 26+ min ago (456+ words) We're sooooo excited for this one! Dr Who fans, rejoice! The 'Whoniverse' is expanding, thanks to a new spin-off that's due to drop on our screens imminently. Yes, we're talking about The War Between The Land and The Sea, which has been created by Russell T. Davies, who led the Dr Who reboot between 2005 and 2010, before returning to the series in 2021. It picks up the storyline of the Sea Devils, who first appeared on the show in 1972, in the third serial of the ninth season. Rather than being a straight adaptation of that story, the series brings the threads of the concept into the modern day. The new spin-off show was actually referenced in the recent Dr Who episode '73 Yards', in which The Dr says: "That coastline, Ruby! The rocks and the water. It never ends, the war between the land…...

9+ hour, 25+ min ago (246+ words) Where are all the Matthew Lillard hero characters? I've auditioned for things. I've talked about this a couple of times, but The Walking Dead. I auditioned for that four times. Four times. The showunner and I were doing Hall H down in San Diego [Comic-Con], and I was doing Twin Peaks, and Walking Dead was right behind us. And he was like, "I love your work. You were so close.' So how close did it get? Well, if Jeffrey Dean Morgan had dropped his phone in a toilet or had an untimely cold, Walking Dead fans might have had an entirely different reaction to the villain's game-changing introduction. Lillard continued, saying: He said, "You were actually Negan for five minutes because Jeffrey Dean Morgan had the offer. He wasn't responding and the team clocked it, and they made the move…...

10+ hour, 17+ min ago (468+ words) While Star Trek: Strange New Worlds has plenty of talented actors taking on familiar franchise characters like Pike, Kirk, and Spock, the show also features its fair share of fresh characters. This includes Christina Chong, whose La'an character (a stern security chief who is learning to show her softer side) often manages to steal each scene she's in. Recently, she discussed her hopes for an official Star Trek/Doctor Who crossover, but her ambitious plan is one that would kill both franchises quicker than you can say "bow ties are cool."
