The Last Jedi Poster Revealed-What does it mean?

Image
The Last Jedi poster was released right before the trailer was and it's awesome, but strange. The poster includes Luke, Rey, and Kylo Ren. Rey is holding the lightsaber which shoots up into the sky. Familiar? In this poster, the blade shoots directly into Darth Vader, the enemy. But in the Last Jedi Poster, it cuts in half Luke and Kylo. We know Kylo is an enemy, at least as we know, but what about Luke? Signing off- The Coruscant Post

A review of the Disney's Star Wars Die Cast Elite Series: Rey and BB8

Image
Here's my Official Review of the new Elite Series Rey and BB8 Figures  The joints are nice, and her arms can go a reasonable amount of turning. The painting is iffy, but still holds up against other figures. Her eyes kind of aren't the straightest, but that's not really important. Her clothing is designed beautifully, and the draping is well done. The figure though, is EXTREMELY top heavy, so trying to get her to stand up without the base (below) is almost impossible.  Thankfully, the figure comes with a stand just like all the other Die Cast Elite Series because it's almost impossible to make her stand up on her own.  The set comes with her staff, which doesn't really fit on her back, having no strap so it basically sits on her arm/.  The Backpack is the same way.  The blaster is nice. It's the one Han Solo gave to her in the the Force Awakens. It's a little hard to fit in, but after that it's pretty nice.  The lightsaber is corre

Watch The Trailer Here Video not working? Go to the direct link:  https://vimeo.com/212842535 A 30 second trailer for Battlefront 2 has leaked online on vinemo. This clip showed a group of Tie-Fighter Pilots together on the ground of Endor. In the distance the Death Star 2 explodes. A female pilot's voiceover takes over. "I still remember my last orders,” she says, “the day the real war began. ‘Avenge our Emperor!’” This game by Electronic Arts will have online multiplayer battles like the original game, but will include something that fans have been wanting for a long time. A single player campaign mode. This game will also feature heroes from across all three trilogies.

The New Thrawn Novel by Timothy Zahn is Released Today!

Image
Unless you simply don't follow Rebels, or you haven't heard of the original Thrawn trilogy, you know that Grand Admiral Thrawn is not your everyday bad guy. This blue-skinned Chiss genius is like the Sherlock Holmes of Star Wars. Focusing on instead of just attacking and trapping the enemy giving them a way to escape, Thrawn is always focusing on the enemy's culture and their art.  Thrawn is always able to think one step ahead of his enemy and is able to trap and wipe them off the grid. (Spoilers For Rebels Season 3 Finale Ahead: Zero Hour Part 1 & 2) During the Rebels Season 3 Finale, Thrawn traps the Rebels in their base, where any departing ships will be obliterated. He gives direct orders to another admiral, who later disobeys them giving the Rebels their way to escape. This book titled Star Wars: Thrawn  will be the official book information (Star Wars Rebels is not book information) that is fully cannon. After Disney bought Lucas Books, all of the books from Luc

New Star Wars 9 Info: Final Script Is Finished

That's right. Star Wars Episode 9, has a finished draft of the script. Earlier, previous director of Jurassic World and now the director of the unnamed Star Wars Ninth Movie, stated that  "We're writing, we're designing, and there is a draft. You know, we're throwing 110 percent of our souls into it, so there will be nothing left of me when I'm done."   This movie will take place after Star Wars 8: The Last Jedi, which currently has no trailers released. The growing theory that a trailer will be released at Celebration Orlando is probably true though. We do know that this movie has a very high rate of not having Princess Leia in the film, after her tragic passing. Although, Carrie Fisher was alive throughout the entire production of "The Last Jedi", and the producers have stated that they have no plans to re-shoot the movie. Whether that means that Princess Leia was killed off in Episode 8, that she could be alive for a little bit in Episode
