Join Here: ⁠https://ow.ly/msoH50WCu0K⁠Ignite your inner bounty hunter as Analytic Dreamz unleashes a gripping reaction to the official trailer for Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, unveiled September 22, 2025, and blasting into IMAX theaters May 22, 2026. Directed by Jon Favreau and co-written with Dave Filoni, this high-stakes sequel to the Disney+ saga thrusts Din Djarin (Pedro Pascal) and Grogu into the fray of a fractured galaxy: the Empire's remnants clash with the fragile New Republic, enlisting the armored warrior and his pint-sized Force-sensitive apprentice for a pulse-racing mission that promises epic dogfights, lightsaber skirmishes, and clan-of-two loyalty tested to the brink.Analytic Dreamz breaks down the trailer's visual feast—the resurrected Razor Crest slicing through hyperspace, Grogu's adorable yet potent Force feats like levitating foes and zapping monsters with green sludge, and heartwarming glimpses of Baby Yoda swimming or tinkering with Anzellan allies under Din's watchful beskar gaze. He spotlights triumphant returns: Garazeb "Zeb" Orrelios (voiced by Steven Blum) in full live-action glory, the irrepressible Babu Frik delivering "Good shot, baby!" quips, and a shadowy tease of Sigourney Weaver as enigmatic Colonel Ward, alongside Hutt cartel intrigue and rancor-like beast brawls that evoke classic practical-effects menace. Ludwig Göransson's score pulses with thematic thunder, bridging TV intimacy to cinematic spectacle.Does this trailer signal Star Wars' theatrical renaissance, weaving Rebels lore into a multiverse-ready epic, or does the post-Rise of Skywalker shadow demand bolder risks? Analytic Dreamz debates box-office potential, Grogu's evolving Jedi path, and how Favreau's vision elevates Mando's lone-wolf arc amid Imperial warlords' chaos—questioning if it outshines Ahsoka crossovers or sets up Rey's trilogy. For Mandalorian and Grogu trailer breakdowns, Star Wars movie reactions, Pedro Pascal updates, and Disney+ spinoff analyses, this segment is your beskar-clad essential.

Will Marvel find ways to improve upon this famously maligned film, or will it leave as cold as the waters of Kef Bir? Tune in!

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesIt's been a busy week for the MCU starting with a potentially big leak where costumes from Avengers: Doomsday were revealed. With filming now wrapped, an image from the wrap party gifts showed those who want to look what our characters may look like in the upcoming blockbuster. In other “oops” news, Spider-Man actor Tom Holland suffered a mild concussion while filming a stunt for Spider-Man: Brand New Day, halting filming for several days. Here's hoping Spidey's bump on the noggin heals fast! Daredevil: Born Again has already been renewed for a third season. The return to Charlie Cox's outing as the Man Without Fear was well received this year on Disney+ and season two will premiere next May. Lastly, Marvin Jones, III will appear as Tombstone in Spider-Man: Brand New Day. On Monday, Lucasfilm dropped the long-awaited teaser trailer for The Mandalorian and Grogu - Star Wars' newest feature film coming out in May 2026. As we've discussed before, this will be Lucasfilm's first feature film for the franchise since 2019's The Rise of Skywalker and it seems like a lot is riding on Grogu's tiny green shoulders.James Gunn didn't leave us hanging this week as the writer/director/co-chair of DC Studios shared an Instagram post of his second draft of the script for Man of Tomorrow. An image taking up most of the cover shows an anatomical cutout of a human head and brain leading to speculation that Brainiac will be the villain Superman and perhaps Lex Luthor have to team up against. Matt Reeves also chimed in on the same topic, though separately, and shared that the villain for The Batman: Part II will be a character that has “never really been done” in a film before. Reeves also confirmed his films are Elseworlds projects not part of the DCU.The first trailer has been released for Sony's comedic reimagining of the 1997 film Anaconda which stars Jack Black and Paul Rudd. The film will hit theaters on December 25.Director Shawn Levy posted a photo to Instagram last week of Ryan Gosling in costume on the set of Star Wars: Starfighter, offering the first look from the film's shoot. Gosling and co-star Flynn Gray are seen posing with the Mediterranean Sea behind them.Paul Walter Hauser is joining the cast of director Zach Cregger‘s new Resident Evil movie.DC announced last week that its Batman No. 1, a relaunch of the Caped Crusader by writer Matt Fraction and artist Jorge Jiménez, has sold over 500,000 copies, making it the top selling comic of the year by far.Stan Lee will posthumously return to L.A. Comic con, this time as a hologram that will use AI to have conversations with fans. Fans will be able to speak with the hologram at the Stan Lee Experience section of the con, a 1,500 ft. enclosed booth which costs between $15-$20 to enter, depending on whether you buy tickets ahead of time. And like meeting a celebrity or getting autographs, there will be paid opportunities to take photos with the hologram or have a three-minute, one-on-one conversation with it.Taylor Swift is returning to theaters from Oct. 3-Oct. 5 for her album release. Swift is partnering with AMC theaters for the event film which will feature behind the scenes making of her new album Life of a Showgirl, as well as a music video premiere. The Eras Tour film was a phenomenon two years ago, becoming the top grossing concert film of all time with $261.6 million globally.After rumors last week that Paramount was looking into making a bid for Warner Brothers, Puck News is now reporting that a well placed inside source has verified that Netflix is preparing to make a bid for the studio as well.

Met een nieuwe Star Wars-film aan de horizon richten wij onze blik op de toekomst van die verre, verre sterrenstelsels. Star Wars: Starfighter speelt zich af ongeveer vijf jaar na de gebeurtenissen van The Rise of Skywalker. Deze productie, die inmiddels officieel van start is gegaan, belooft een volledig origineel avontuur te worden, gesitueerd in een tijdperk dat nog nooit eerder binnen het Star Wars-universum is verkend. Maar de vraag brandt: wat willen wij als fans zien? Waar moet de inspiratie vandaan komen, uit de mythische wortels van de saga, uit vergeten legendes, of uit een compleet nieuw hoofdstuk van de Force of juist uit iets heel anders? En misschien nog belangrijker: wat mag er absoluut niet gebeuren als dit nieuwe epos zich ontvouwt?Niets meer missen?

Today, we go back to where it all began with The Mandalorian Chapter 1... the premiere that launched Disney+ and redefined Star Wars for a new era. Before the MandoVerse expanded into spinoffs like The Book of Boba Fett, Ahsoka, and The Mandalorian Season 3, there was just one story: a lone bounty hunter navigating the galaxy far, far away. We're taking a trip down memory lane to revisit what made The Mandalorian's first episode so special — from Pedro Pascal's stoic performance as Din Djarin, to Jon Favreau's western-inspired storytelling, to Dave Filoni's direction that perfectly balanced mystery, action, and heart. And of course, we can't forget the iconic debut of Grogu (Baby Yoda), a moment that instantly became a cultural phenomenon. Looking back, it's striking how fresh and focused the series felt at the start, before Disney+ leaned fully into interconnected spinoffs and the larger “MandoVerse.” This discussion isn't just a review of The Mandalorian Chapter 1, but also a reflection on what it meant for Star Wars in 2019, a time when fans were optimistic and the future of Star Wars TV felt wide open post-The Rise of Skywalker.

Due to sales decided it was time to play the 2nd game in the Jedi Series.  This was something that happened thanks to a steam sale.  It continues Cals story in some very interesting ways.  It also does something that i really appreciated, we keep our abilities from game one and then get a ton of new ones.  Which is honestly a super cool idea we don't see enough in games.  Story adds on to where we were and I cant wait to see how this series ends.  Come hear what we had to say as we experience Jedi Survivor.  Starring Mike Albertin, Kerry Chandler, Adam and Isaiah.  Kerry's Twitch - https://www.twitch.tv/kerooseta Kerry's Son YouTube - https://www.youtube.com/@nateropy3986 Gamer Looks at 40 - https://agamerlooksat40.com/ Zac's Podcast - https://linktr.ee/absolutelythebest Helena - https://linktr.ee/helhathfury Patreon - https://www.patreon.com/GamesMyMomFound Follow us on Facebook.

This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we finally get around to reviewing the much anticipated Fantastic Four Film! As it has been a few weeks between seeing it, and talking about it here; we decide to go head first in - with no holds back - Full Spoiler Talk! So please be mindful of that. Plus; with all the hype around Comic Book movies; we have a fun discussion around which Film did we think, did it best? Superman or FF4? Then we take a quick look at the latest news - with a pure focus around the three main Crowdfunding projects, all happening right now. The HasLab SnowCat which has actually just wrapped up. Mattel's rather ambitious Snake Lair; with a rather questionable price tag! Plus the other HasLab project, the Star Wars: Gunner Ship! This one looks like it needs a huge boost of backers! Then pivoting back to the Big Screen; we chat about the latest Radical Rewind screening that was: Wayne's World! From numerous Cosplay fun, to the upcoming hype around the Next Feature Film too! Then rounding out the ep; we have a quick chat about the incredible 'Weapons' film that sports a perfect mix of Thriller, Horror & Suspense! This movie has us just buzzing after seeing it! All this & more; enjoy!!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Due to a random conversation while recording another Star Wars game we ended up mentioning this game, Demolition.  Here we have a Twisted Metal clone with a Star Wars coat of paint. Does this game get the formula right?  Does this game add some cool new characters into the Star Wars lore?  Come hear how we felt about this Ps1 title.

Episode Summary:In the third and final chapter of our Star Wars original trilogy series, Scott, Candice, and guests take the mic with a few extra drinks and zero fear of ruffling fanboy feathers. This episode is all about changing canon, fixing missed opportunities, and imagining what could have been in the galaxy far, far away.From rapid-fire “Jedi or Sith” questions to deep dives on Ewok backstories, Captain Phasma fan theories, and why Boba Fett might be overrated, no character is safe. We pitch spin-offs for the underappreciated, debate which moments in The Rise of Skywalker should be rewritten, and even ask the ultimate question—should Episodes VII, VIII, and IX have been made at all?Plus, you'll hear:Which character one host would happily launch out of a cannon.Why the Luke and Leia kiss still gives everyone the ick.A theory that turns Jar Jar Binks into a secret Sith Lord.A surprisingly dark fan theory about Obi-Wan and the fate of Owen and Beru.Our most unpopular Star Wars opinions (brace yourself, purists).It's chaotic, it's passionate, and it's exactly the kind of spirited debate you'd expect from Disney adults who have been drinking since morning. Grab a drink, open your mind, and prepare for some serious Star Wars heresy.Listen now for laughs, hot takes, and maybe a new perspective on your favorite (or least favorite) parts of the saga.

Jedi, Sith, and all the shades of the Force in between. Join us as we dive into the unknowns of the New Jedi Order era, picking apart clues from the novel Force Collector and the subtle hints woven throughout The Rise of Skywalker. What does the future hold for the galaxy's peacekeepers? On this week's episode of "Star Wars Escape Pod," the hosts and special guest Francis dive deep into the new New Jedi Order era. They speculated on the upcoming movies, including the confirmed Starfighter film with Ryan Gosling and the long-rumored Rey movie. The conversation also drew comparisons to the old Expanded Universe's New Jedi Order, touching on the controversial Yuuzhan Vong and the infamous death of Chewbacca. The group explored what the new era might look like, drawing on recent books like Force Collector and television series like Ahsoka, while also discussing potential new villains and the future of characters like Rey and Finn.     EMAIL US YOUR REQUESTS AND QUESTIONS! ———————————————————————— Have you checked out our flashcast called Star Wars Launch Pad? https://www.youtube.com/@SWLaunchPad https://open.spotify.com/show/1v0naAAJZMW0nig3OkFToJ?si=8014aef1647f4da5 Found on any platform in the galaxy! ———————————————————————— Star Wars Escape Pod

Since Dakota left us out to dry this week regarding our TCW rewatch, we pivot to… a lot of different things! Why did the Jedi accept the Clone Army seemingly without question in Attack of the Clones? Have our feelings changed on The Rise of Skywalker since its release? Is LFL ever going to release the version of A New Hope that was originally released in 1977? And the dawn of a new age regarding a classic segment. Full show notes: https://notes.moseisley.xyz/s/7v0sfAfNc#

Welcome to Multiverse News, Your source for Information about all your favorite fictional universesWith the MCU's latest big screen offering now in theaters, as rabid fans, it only makes sense to look to the future, and apparently Marvel and Sony agree, as myriad fresh details surrounding the franchise's next film, Spider-Man: Brand New Day began hitting the internet all weekend. First, last Friday morning Sony released a 9-second video teasing features of Spidey's new suit, which was quickly followed up with a 23-second video with star Tom Holland, in suit, performing some minor acrobatics the next day. Finally, The Hollywood Reporter confirmed the longstanding rumor that Mark Ruffalo is reprising his role as Bruce Banner/The Hulk for the film, while Better Call Saul actor, Michael Mando, was also announced to be returning as Mac Gargan/The Scorpion.The Fantastic Four: First Steps continued its box office reign, raking in $39.6 million its second weekend for a $368 million total global haul. While far from a defeat, the staggering 67% drop from the flick's first weekend presents a significant loss in momentum and is in stark contrast with expectations, which were largely fueled by positive reception and strong word of mouth among critics and fans. Elsewhere, Superman crossed the $550 million milestone internationally, and Jurassic World: Rebirth passed $750 million at the global box office after 5 weeks in theaters, becoming only the third film of 2025 to do so behind Lilo & Stitch and A Minecraft Movie. Amazon MGM's upcoming James Bond film being directed by Dune's Denis Villeneuve, is quickly coming together as Peaky Blinders creator Steven Knight has been hired to pen the script. Apart from Peaky Blinders, Knight has enjoyed a storied career on the small screen as a screenwriter, director and producer involved with projects such as Apple TV's See and Netflix's All The Light We Cannot See, while also co-creating Who Wants To Be A Millionaire? As far as big screen contributions, he wrote the screenplays for Eastern Promises and Spencer, which were both Oscars-nominated, and directed the films Hummingbird, Locke and Serenity, the 2019 film starring Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway. Considering candidates for our new Bond, as if we could ever get enough of Tom Holland, the actor went on record to voice his reverence for the role as the “pinnacle” for British actors, while seemingly disqualifying himself by announcing another break from acting in 2027.Per Deadline, Matt Smith has joined the cast of Shawn Levy's Star Wars: Starfighter in a villain role, set to appear alongside Ryan Gosling and Mia Goth in the film set for May 28, 2027. The House of the Dragon star gets another shot at the Star Wars universe after previously being cast in The Rise of Skywalker but ultimately not appearing in the final film.John Krasinski announced he's returning to direct, write and produce A Quiet Place Part III, set for release on July 9, 2027; no cast or story details have been revealed.Disney and Lucasfilm announced Star Wars: A New Hope will return to theaters on April 30, 2027, to celebrate the 50th anniversary of the film.Aaron Sorkin has his sights set on Oscar winner Mikey Madison and Emmy winner Jeremy Allen White to star in The Social Network Part II, with Madison potentially playing a whistleblower and White as journalist Jeff Horwitz behind the explosive Facebook Files exposé. While no formal offers have been made, sources say these are Sorkin's top choices for the sequel that will explore Facebook's role in various controversies rather than serving as a direct continuation of the 2010 film.

Matt Smith is officially joining the Star Wars galaxy as the villain in Star Wars: Starfighter! On today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, Kristian breaks down what this casting could mean for the film and the larger Star Wars universe. Could this be the role fans have been waiting for since he was rumored to appear in The Rise of Skywalker? Also in the news:

Rob and new co-host James talk all things Star Wars. This week we bring you Star Wars news fresh off the Holonet — from upcoming shows and movie rumors to galaxy-shaking updates from the world of collectibles, games, and beyond. Don't miss our weekly segment, "Jedi of the Week", where we shine a blue lightsaber on heroes (and sometimes anti-heroes) of the Jedi Order — from iconic masters like Yoda to underrated legends hiding in the Outer Rim. We also crack open the Jedi Archives with our Star Wars Book Talk, diving into two essential reads: Star Wars: Dark Disciple — the thrilling, emotional tale of Asajj Ventress and Quinlan Vos that blurs the line between light and dark. Star Wars: Allegiance — a bridge between Return of the Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker that follows Leia, the Resistance, and some stormtroopers with second thoughts. This week's main transmission: "Navigating the Galaxy: A Newbie's Guide to Star Wars." If you've ever wondered where to begin in this vast universe — movies, shows, animated series, books, canon vs. Legends — we'll help you pilot your ship through hyperspace without hitting a mynock.

This week on the Toy Power Podcast; we are still down a Scot, as he is still unwell. But that will not slow him down in contributing to this ep! Before we get into the main segments, we chat about Ben & Frank's latest Plastic Addiction, in the form of Transformers Blokees! Prior to chatting about the Superman Film itself, we focus on the Toy likeness compared to what the actor actually looks like! With a little Jurassic World banter in between. Then, without another moment to spare, we get right into the James Gunn driven film itself! We chat towards our Cinema experiences and start off with a non-spoiler discussion; before we head into a chat about the whole Film itself! Giving it our typical DVG rating out of 19 too. Then changing gears, we introduce a New segment - named: Variant Schmariant! We each pick two variants of a pre-existing character (in toy form) that just doesn't need to exist. We unearth some quite silly versions of characters that had a legitimate Toy Release; that clearly logic was not a concern at all!! Plus we tie a nice bow around the proposed Nick-Names for both Frank & Scot. Enjoy!!Support the show: http://patreon.com/toypowerpodcastSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The primary focus of this podcast episode revolves around an in-depth examination of the screenplay for "Star Wars: Duel of the Fates," which was conceived as the original narrative for Episode 9 before the advent of "Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker." Through this discourse, Joshua Noel and TJ Blackwell endeavor to elucidate the thematic resonance and narrative structure of this unproduced screenplay, which is readily accessible online. The discussion aims not only to critique the screenplay itself but also to underscore the significance of literary engagement in all its forms, aligning with our overarching mission in the "All Reading Counts" series.
