The next season of Din and Grogu adventures is nearly upon us and The Mandalorian’s season three official trailer promises both a bigger galaxy and the continued focus on the growing father/son dynamic of the unlikely duo. The outsized focus on those two doesn’t mean we get some glimpses of new places or storylines, as a Carson Teva sighting comes with ominous warnings, more Grogu Order 66 flashbacks to come, and B1 battle droids chilling…at a droid bar?! March 1 is closing in, so head below for some screenshots from the new trailer, including the small extra footage in the Disney+ version!

News: Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny Trailer, Jedi Battle Scars Cover Revealed, The Mandalorian S3 Premieres March 1
While we are primarily a Star Wars blog, Lucasfilm does more than Star Wars (I’m going to start watching the Willow show soon), the mynocks would never let me not mention Indiana Jones and the Dial of Destiny had its first trailer today (which you can watch below the cut). Back to Star Wars, the upcoming novel Jedi: Battle Scars by Sam Maggs had its full cover revealed and a blurb with intriguing new details, along with a confirmed release date of March 7. The fun doesn’t end there, as on March 1, and overlapping with The Bad Batch’s second season, The Mandalorian’s third season premieres. Head below for the new Battle Scars details and its full cover!

D23 ’22: Tales of the Jedi and Mandalorian S3 Trailers, Bad Batch S2 Out January ’23, and More!
The D23 Expo in 2022 had a few gifts for Star Wars fans, bringing trailers for Tales of the Jedi (see above!) and The Mandalorian‘s third season to the public after holding them hostage back at Celebration Anaheim ’22, a new trailer for the imminent premiere of Andor, The Bad Batch season 2 pushed from the fall to January 2023, our first glimpse at the Jude Law-led Skeleton Crew, and even the initial concepts for the heroes of The High Republic-set Young Jedi Adventures animated show! Head below for the other new trailers and other details, like the recent casting news (not officially confirmed at D23) for the Ahsoka show!

Mando+ Panel: More Season 3 Details, Ahsoka Footage, Sabine Wren Casting Confirmed, and More! (SWCA 2022)
As was the case for the weekend, Mando+, a panel about The Mandalorian Season 3 and ended up including Ahsoka details and first footage, wasn’t screened to the public. In fact, there was a longer version of The Mandalorian S3 teaser from the opening day panel that invitees got to see, alongside the Ahsoka footage, but unfortunately we couldn’t even see the cast and crew together talking about their experiences. So thanks to some live tweets and reporting from those who were there, and some grainy Ahsoka footage I was able to see before it was taken down, let’s explore some of the reveals and details below. The Mandalorian returns February ’23 and Ahsoka sometime later that year. Continue reading “Mando+ Panel: More Season 3 Details, Ahsoka Footage, Sabine Wren Casting Confirmed, and More! (SWCA 2022)”
Lucasfilm Showcase Panel (SWCA 2022)
Since 2015’s Celebration Anaheim, there wasn’t quite been a weekend opening panel like the one with The Force Awakens’ trailer, and well, the Lucasfilm Showcase Panel for Anaheim 2022 wanted to say “hold my spotchka!” but it didn’t quite get there, due to focusing on non-Star Wars projects and by denying this panel to everyone at the convention minus those in the room, it could never quite permeate the weekend like SWCA ’15’s did even if it had a similar show-stopper. Let’s take a moment to address how disappointing, massively so, that they gate-kept this panel from those at home by choosing not to stream it (and the rest of the weekend’s opening panels), with only The Mandalorian’s S3 footage not being shown online anyways, screwing over international fans, fans who can’t come out due to health reasons, fans that can’t come due to COVID and wars, or even just monetary reasons…it’s an extremely inept choice in 2022, especially due to one short teaser, and I wish I could bet on Lucasfilm doing better but I don’t have much faith (like, let us at home pay to watch, even!). That out of the way, head below for the Andor trailer, Jude Law headlining 2023’s Skeleton Crew, and the non-Star Wars news, I guess! Continue reading “Lucasfilm Showcase Panel (SWCA 2022)”
Vanity Fair Lifts Veil on Lucasfilm’s TV Future
With a little over a week before Star Wars Celebration Anaheim 2022, Lucasfilm partnered with Vanity Fair on an article pulling back the first layers on what’s to come from its live-action slate of TV and movies. While the latest photoshoot and article don’t uncover anything largely new, besides the announcement of a new show already rumored, plenty of intriguing details about shows like Andor and The Acolyte, as well as what films are on tap, offer a refreshing and welcomed glimpse at what’s to come for the future of Star Wars. Here’s hoping the animation side of things gets just as much love next or sooner! Head below for all the new details and more from the photoshoot!

Celebration Anaheim 2022 Panels Revealed: Tales of the Jedi, High Republic, Bad Batch Season Two, and More!
The full schedule of panels for Star Wars Celebration Anaheim 2022 has been revealed, teasing tons of big news and reveals, while also confirming a rumor, of all things! Tales of the Jedi was first rumored after images appeared online of a Lucasfilm Production team gift in December 2021 and now the panel listing for Anaheim 2022 confirmed the show’s existence as an animated anthology of shorts. I don’t expect more details until then, besides maybe a tease on May the Fourth this year, but hopefully it’s shorts like Star Wars Visions, with different creatives for each one and longer than the Galaxy of Adventures micro-shorts. Beyond the show’s reveal, there’s confirmation of a The High Republic focused panel, various publishing panels, the Attack of the Clones 20th Anniversary Celebration, Siege of Mandalore screening, and so much more! There’s no word on what we’ll be able to watch from home for those of us who can’t make it this year (breaking my streak by not going!), but head below to check out some of my picks for panels to enjoy so maybe you can start planning accordingly whether you go or not this year!

The Book of Boba Fett Season One Finale Review: “Chapter 7 – In the Name of Honor”
– Spoiler Review –
While it says “Spoiler Review” above, if you’ve been waiting for the show to finally deliver on all its set-up before the mostly two episode detour, The Book of Boba Fett’s Season (maybe series) Finale “Chapter 7 – In the Name of Honor” comes with little surprise, but it offers a fun, action-packed ending for the main story, though those detours rob the finale of any true gravitas. Continue reading “The Book of Boba Fett Season One Finale Review: “Chapter 7 – In the Name of Honor””
The Book of Boba Fett Season One Review: “Chapter 6 – From the Desert Comes a Stranger”
– Spoiler Review –
The Mandalorian…I mean The Book of Boba Fett’s penultimate episode, “Chapter 6 – From the Desert Comes a Stranger” finally finds its way back to the main narrative, though while it has some stellar moments carrying on Din Djarin’s story as well, they come at the expense of this show.
