I know some people look down on animation as a medium, and comedy as a genre, and I can’t fix those glaring character defects. But, if that’s NOT you, I highly recommend watching Star Wars Resistance right now! It’s got all of the timely themes we need, but it’s also easy on the heart & mind.

It has come to our attention that despite TNAP having been producing and promoting our MCU rewatch show since late September of last year @newrockstars.bsky.social has gone ahead and stolen the title and has begun promoting their version acting as though ours does not exist already.

In what I’m sure comes as a shock to nobody, I have a lot of thoughts and feelings about #TheHuntForBenSolo news. Most of them are frustration and exasperation. A lot of it with the fandom.
Tune in.
Tune in.
The #StarWars fandom has been taken by storm by the news that Disney shot down a Ben Solo movie pitched by Steven Soderbergh and Adam Driver.
This week on KNR Jarod, Bill, and Conor are here to unpack this insane news and reflect on what could have been with a Ben Solo revival.
