Yesterday, The Star Wars Show gave us our first look at what is probably the most heavily-anticipated deleted scene from The Last Jedi. If you haven't seen it, we get only a few glimpses of the scene, but it's definitely interesting nonetheless (the new stuff begins at the 3:55 mark): https://twitter.com/starwars/status/956255289191223296 Rian Johnson actually explained [...]
Earlier today, the nominees for the 90th annual Academy Awards were announced, and The Last Jedi has been nominated for four awards: best visual effects, best original score, best sound editing, and best sound mixing.

After nine viewings of The Last Jedi, I can certainly say in agreement with many viewers that the Canto Bight sequence is probably the least interesting in the film. But I'll never call it meaningless. Saying something is a boring scene or the least exciting in the movie is a far cry from saying that [...]

(*** major spoilers for The Last Jedi are ahead ***) In 2015, The Force Awakens introduced us to the mysterious leader of the First Order, Supreme Leader Snoke. For the next two years, fans spent countless hours theorizing who he might actually be. Some said he was Darth Plagueis reincarnate, though Lucasfilm (particularly Pablo Hidalgo) [...]
(*** Spoilers ahead ***) In an interview before The Last Jedi premiered, Mark Hamill said that the most important line was one shown in trailers, said by Luke Skywalker: "This is not going to go the way you think." In the movie, he's talking to Rey, but he may as well have been talking to [...]
We're a week away now from the U.S. release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi, and I can hardly wait! We've been following all of the TV spots that have been released for the movie, and while many of them are interesting, they're interesting in the way of giving a new shot or a new [...]
The wait is almost over... The Last Jedi comes out NEXT WEEK! That's super exciting, and it's hard to contain my excitement for this movie.
