After months of planning, our LiningUp.net Mandalorian and Grogu Charity Kick-Off Bash brought our Star Wars community together for one unforgettable day at Scum & Villainy Cantina! The goal - to raise $2,500 for Starlight Children's Foundation, helping kids in need. Did we do it?? With trivia, charity raffles, a silent auction, and games like Force Feud and Draw Wars, our friends and fans showed up in full force to support the Starlight Children's Foundation and LiningUp.net. From tauntaun escorts and Mandalorian cosplayers to an animatronic Grogu and incredible Star Wars prizes, the event was packed with fun, fandom, and fundraising. Huge thanks to everyone who contributed, participated, and made this event such a success. In this episode we share pictures and video on the event, along with our colorful commentary. And this is just the beginning—join us and LiningUp.net on May 19th through 21st as we line up for The Mandalorian and Grogu at the TCL Chinese Theatre, followed by a May 21st screening and after party sponsored by IMAX.

The heroes of the rebellion have fled Hoth and found themselves in new environs unlike any we've seen in Star Wars before. Bespin's Cloud City is the first real metropolis in the series, and while Yavin was covered in trees, it was nothing like the damp swamps of Dagobah, home to creepy crawlies of all sorts. As our heroes meet their respective contacts, one has to wonder, which of these new worlds is home to the more trustworthy sort of person? Trick question. You can't trust either of these motherfuckers.

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to watch a double sunset on Tatooine, stand among the sand dunes of Arrakis or gaze at the gas-giant planet Polyphemus from the moon Pandora? In Amazing Worlds of Science Fiction and Science Fact (Reaktion, 2025), Keith Cooper explores the fictional planets of films such as Star Wars, Dune and Avatar, and discusses how realistic they are based on our current scientific understanding and astronomical observations. The real exoplanets astronomers are now discovering are truly stranger than fiction, as the author shows. Featuring insights from over a dozen scientists and award-winning science-fiction authors, including Charlie Jane Anders, Stephen Baxter and Alastair Reynolds, Amazing Worlds of Science Fiction and Science Fact is perfect for readers of popular science and fans of science fiction. This interview was conducted by Dr. Miranda Melcher whose book focuses on post-conflict military integration, understanding treaty negotiation and implementation in civil war contexts, with qualitative analysis of the Angolan and Mozambican civil wars. You can find Miranda's interviews on New Books with Miranda Melcher, wherever you get your podcasts. Learn more about your ad choices.

After 20 years of development hell, Metal Gear Solid is finally becoming a movie with Final Destination: Bloodlines directors Zach Lipovsky and Adam B. Stein attached, and Hideo Kojima doesn't appear to be part of the production. Netflix greenlights Extraction 3 with Chris Hemsworth and Idris Elba returning for summer 2026 production in Sydney and Europe, continuing Tyler Rake's story from the Extraction 2 cliffhanger. In a stunning admission, Disney and James Cameron are discussing making future Avatar movies "cheaper and shorter" after Avatar: Fire and Ash earned $1.4 billion with insiders calling the franchise "culturally exhausted" despite the massive box office. Jonathan Majors and co-star JC Kilcoyne fell six feet through an unsecured window on the set of his Daily Wire action movie comeback vehicle, with Kilcoyne requiring stitches across both hands; the incident sparked a crew strike after over half the production team walked off citing safety concerns including falling props, black mold, missing oversight, and a special effects supervisor with a prior explosives conviction, while producers responded by saying they "don't negotiate with communists." Amazon MGM Studios officially greenlights RoboCop series reboot for Prime Video under new TV chief Peter Friedlander, with Peter Ocko as showrunner and James Wan executive producing, reviving the franchise after years in development limbo and previous failed attempts at legacy film sequels. Plus: Cameron potentially passing Avatar franchise to younger director or finishing the story as novels, Lipovsky and Stein's hot streak includes Gremlins 3 and animated Venom movie, and the question of whether Avatar 4 and 5 need to happen after $6.7 billion across three films. Every story is either franchise resurrection, franchise exhaustion, or production chaos.The Nerdpocalypse is a weekly podcast covering the latest movie news, TV show news, trailer reactions, and pop culture commentary.

JJ shares a transformative theater experience after seeing the touring production of Suffs, the Tony-winning musical about the women's suffrage movement, and explains why it deeply moved him. He and Tucker discuss the power of art to inspire change, the importance of preserving live theater through filmed productions, and how musical storytelling can shape generations. Later, JJ gives a behind-the-scenes look at directing The Shark Is Broken, including how his cast evolved once they got in front of an audience—and the chaotic rehearsal stunt involving hidden Diet Cokes, American cheese, and improvised Star Wars references that helped break them out of a creative rut.

When martial artists desire to be "the most popular girl" - Top That! There are ninja movies, and then there's Wu Tang Vs Ninja—a film that feels like it was assembled from a fever dream involving late-night cable, a kung fu catalog, and someone half-remembering Star Wars after watching Teen Witch. It's baffling, chaotic, and completely committed to whatever bizarre wavelength it's operating on. And honestly, that commitment is what makes it such a blast. The plot is less a coherent narrative and more a mystical scavenger hunt through pure nonsense. There are chosen ones, shadowy clans, vague rivalries, and an almost cosmic understanding of ninja hierarchy that somehow coexists with the strangest supernatural rules imaginable. It really does feel like someone mashed together Jedi mythology with teen wizard empowerment tropes and then filtered it all through low-budget ninja cinema. Trying to make sense of it is pointless—just let it wash over you like a neon-colored smoke bomb. And oh, the ninja insanity delivers. You've got all the classics: tunneling assassins popping out of nowhere, color-coded factions flipping through trees, and enough smoke bombs to fog an entire county. But then it escalates into full-on madness—energy-draining techniques tied to… let's call it “vital essence,” ninjas transforming into flying curtains (yes, really), and wild “finger blast” attacks that feel like someone imagined super-powers five minutes before filming. It's the kind of movie where every scene dares the next one to be even weirder, and it rarely disappoints. That said, this isn't a casual watch. The fight sequences are relentless, sometimes to the point of exhaustion, and the pacing can feel like it's sprinting through a dozen ideas at once. But for the true ninja aficionado—the kind who lives for unhinged creativity, maximalist action, and filmmakers throwing everything they've got at the screen—this is a gem. It's strange, it's messy, and it absolutely earns its place in the “so bad it loops back to good” ninja section of the hall of fame.
CAPÍTULO #402… Esta semana nos dejamos caer por las casas bajas de Baltimore y visitamos una pequeña tienda de barrio esperando que no nos pille ninguna bala perdida, para pegarle un buen repaso a The Grocery, de Aurélien Ducoudray y Guillaume Singelin. Una obra que retrata de manera cruda el reverso del sueño americano tal y como se ve desde la acera. Un relato coral, sucio, con tensión que nos devuelve inevitablemente a otros clásicos de historias de barrio como The Wire o Boyz n the hood. Por otro lado, nos pondremos al día con toda la batería de noticias de actualidad, además de nuestras reacciones a la nueva temporada de Daredevil Born Again o el tráiler del especial de Punisher. Y cerramos con todo el bombardeo de reseñas de novedades, con lanzamientos como lo nuevo de Deniz Camp, el tochaldrado de Gung Ho, las Parker Girls de Terry Moore, mucha mandanga cósmica de Star Wars, el ómnibus de I Hate Fairyland, Mignola por un tubo y muchísimo más. Gracias por estar al otro lado agentes ¡Nos oímos! NOTICIAS [00:04:23] Anuncios sobre la próxima Feria del Libro de Madrid Moztros anuncia 13 nuevas licencias Manga para 2026 Mike Mignola prepara su siguiente proyecto como autor completo Nueva e impresionante edición de la Broma Asesina Reacciones a la nueva temporada de Daredevil Born Again Primer tráiler del especial de Punisher: One Last Kill Próximos Avances Editoriale Ha muerto Hermann a los 89 años Fallece Sam Kieth a los 63 años NOVEDADES Y RELECTURAS [01:03:24] DC KO Batman Patrones Oscuros Presas Fáciles Nobody Jiya of the Blood Garden Star Wars Thrawn - Integral Star Wars. Imperio - Leyendas Sucesos Críticos Variados Chucho Feucho Wonder Woman: Hiketeia Parker Girls Piluca Gung Ho Autores de Comic: Javier Rodríguez I Hate Fairyland La nueva Arcadia Copra Jugando a Bolos con cadáveres Bienvenidos a Pandemonia Star Wars: El Legado de Vader Jaadugar: Una bruja en Mongolia Zorro: Tierra de Capiangos THE GROCERY [03:14:17] De la mano de 619, The Grocery nos mete de lleno en un barrio marginal de Baltimore, de manera intencionadamente deudora a The Wire. Con una diferencia crucial, aquí, Ducoudray (guion) y Singelin (dibujo) no se centran en una trama policíaca, sino que nos presentan a Elliot, un crío que ve pasar el mundo desde el otro lado del cristal de la tienda de su padre. Y por esa tienda pasa de todo: camellos, policías no muy honrados y vecinos que bastante tienen con llegar vivos al día siguiente. Lo que hace especial a este cómic es el choque entre la crudeza de los temas tratados y el dibujo, en el que Singelin diseña los personajes como extrañas y amables antropomorfizaciones en entornos llenos de detalles. No nos engañemos: The Grocery no trata únicamente de bandas y trapicheo; va de determinismo social, de la instrumentalización de la población por parte de las instituciones, de la pérdida de la inocencia y de un sistema montado para que, por mucho que te esfuerces, el barrio no te suelta. Una lectura que recomendamos sin reservas y que, avisamos, deja marca.

Welcome to Databank Brawl Rewind! Databank Brawl was a series that ran on ForceCenter from 2016 to 2020, and it remains one of our more beloved shows. Though Databank Brawl is on hiatus, we wanted to celebrate it along with longtime listeners of the podcast and reintroduce it to the ForceCenter listeners who began listening to the podcast after the end of the show's run. Though all of the episodes remain on our podcast feed, it can be daunting to scroll back and find them, so we're launching Databank Rewind. Here's your chance to go back to those episodes week by week and laugh with us at old jokes, memorable moments, unforgettable guests, and, yeah, old microphones, recordings, and perhaps some Star Wars predictions that came true alongside many that most certainly did not. Databank Brawl -- where Star Wars characters are plucked from the entries of the StarWars.com databank and forced to fight it out in an off-the-cuff podcast moderated by Joseph Scrimshaw. It's time to fight...From the minds of Ken Napzok (comedian, host of The Napzok Files), Joseph Scrimshaw (comedian, writer, director of Dead Media), and Jennifer Landa (actress, YouTuber, crafter, contributor on StarWars.com) comes the ForceCenter Podcast Feed.

Subscribe now for the full episode! Danny welcomes back to the show historian Daniel Immerwahr to talk about the political and ideological themes of Star Wars, particularly The Phantom Menace. They discuss George Lucas's Vietnam War influences and anti-imperial framework; myth and generational conflict in the original trilogy; the rise of intellectual property and Silicon Valley ideology; the shift from rebellion to bureaucracy in The Phantom Menace; its depiction of trade, governance, and liberal institutional decay; the racialized and cultural representations in the prequels; the transformation of the Jedi into enforcers; technology and scientism; and how The Phantom Menace reflects the politics of the late 1990s “end of history” moment.

I've been following Jessica Henwick's work for quite some time, but even while keeping a keen eye on her growing filmography, it's easy to overlook that she's been in far more major franchises than just about any actor out there. (Something that likely speaks to her range as an artist, ability to lose herself in her roles, and the accomplishment of building a wide-ranging body of work.) Whereas most actors would be lucky to book just one of the biggies, over the years, Henwick has scored roles in the Star Wars franchise, in Game of Thrones, in the Marvel Universe, in The Matrix movies, she voices a character in Blade Runner: Black Lotus, she's in the second Knives Out movie, Glass Onion, and will star in the final two seasons of the hit Apple TV+ show Silo. And who knows what the future will hold.In celebration of the release of Vladimir, Henwick visited the Collider Ladies Night studio to discuss making the irresistible eight-episode Netflix show opposite Rachel Weisz and Leo Woodall. She plays Cynthia, Vladimir's (Woodall) wife. After moving to a new town to take jobs at a local university, Vlad attracts the attention of Weisz's character, a seasoned professor there. Before long, that initial interest sparks an all-consuming fantasy for her. The question is, will she act on it?In addition to celebrating the release of Vladimir, Henwick also took some time to look back on past achievements, including her truly epic run in the franchise realm.

Following OpenAI's decision to shut down its Sora AI video app on March 24, 2026, Disney has officially pulled out of a planned $1 billion investment and three-year licensing deal that would have granted access to over 200 iconic characters from Disney, Marvel, Pixar, and Star Wars.Analytic Dreamz examines the full timeline—from Sora's public launch in December 2024 to the deal's signing in December 2025 and its abrupt termination just months later under new Disney CEO Josh D'Amaro. The segment explores the core reasons behind OpenAI's shutdown, including massive compute costs, unresolved copyright risks, deepfake concerns, and growing Hollywood distrust of uncontrolled AI tools.This Notorious Mass Effect segment delivers a detailed analysis of the strategic fallout, industry-wide implications, and what this high-profile failure signals for the future of AI video generation and Hollywood's cautious approach to artificial intelligence.Privacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

We've all been there: Maybe somebody tells you too much about the twist ending of a movie, or they tell you who dies at the end. In other words, you've run into a spoiler.
