6 Star Wars Characters Who Deserve Their Own Movie
No sooner did Disney announce that they’re definitely planning to make some Star Wars spin-off films than we’ve already got unconfirmed rumors that these movies would be about Yoda, Han Solo or Boba Fett. This means that along with the planned trilogy of Episodes 7, 8 and 9, we’re also going to get some stand alone movies starring specific characters. Seeing as how I’m a big Star Wars fan, this sounds like good news to me.
And being such a big Star Wars fan, I’ve got a few ideas of my own. The great thing about the Star Wars universe is that it’s so full of different and unique characters. Sure Luke Skywalker is the big hero and saved the day, but there are so many other fun characters who deserve the spotlight for once. So here are 6 Star Wars characters that I think should get their own movie. And I’d love to hear some of your ideas in the comments.
I Am Totally Cool with J.J. Abrams Directing the New Star Wars
It was announced earlier this week that J.J. Abrams would be directing Star Wars Episode VII some day in the near future. If you’re not familiar with the name, Abrams is also the guy behind the recent Star Trek reboot. So one guy is going to be in charge of both the Star Wars and Star Trek franchises.
Who thought that would be a good idea? And how did Abrams get to be so lucky?
That being said, I am totally cool with Abrams directing the next Star Wars. I loved his first Star Trek, I’m bound to like the second one, and I’ve enjoyed the rest of his work, like Cloverfield. So for the geek record, which I know exists, I am totally in favor of seeing what Abrams can do with Star Wars.
Especially if it’s anything like this fan trailer posted online by GcPrOductions.
Now that was impressive.
A Star Wars/Disney Corporate Retreat
So apparently Yahoo is doing sketch comedy nowadays? Who knew! Their SketchY group put together this awesome cartoon.
Some of the jokes are silly and easy, but then I doubt Yahoo really wants to push the envelope too much. Kudos to them for trying.
A Whole New Force
Did you hear that Disney bought Star Wars? These guys did!
Good times. Some quality song parodies in there. They probably could have gotten a lot more mileage out of his concept if they’d tried some other scenes, but otherwise, good work by Awesomeness TV.
6 Awesome Things I Got for Christmas
I love Christmas. And with my family, it’s especially wonderful. Both my immediate and extended family all get together down on our grandparents’ farm and everybody exchanges gifts. We have a big Christmas dinner with delicious food and great desserts. And everybody gets along. Forget what you see in movies or TV where everybody’s drunk or mad at each other. That’s not my family, not on Christmas. Everybody gets along, everybody has a great time, and it’s been that way since I was a wee little henchman.
I also always get awesome presents!
Not that Christmas is just about getting presents. I also really splurge on gifts for others too. I’m not a cash/gift card kind of guy. So even for my distant aunts, uncles and cousins that I don’t see very often, I’ll buy them something cool. Because if they wanted money, I could just loan them money. Christmas is the one time of the year when you go out of your way to buy something nice for the people you love. Here’s a list of the six most awesome things I got for Christmas this year.
