It’s the moment we’ve been waiting for. Was it worth the wait? We got a lot of info dumping this episode, which was inevitable given Ahsoka’s grand entrance. We learned a LOT about Baby Yoda’s past (including his name). Furthermore, an important Imperial antagonist still lives and may make a future appearance. “Chapter 13” functions […]

The Mandalorian S2 Ep4 Review
I wasn’t expecting that, and that’s a good thing. Okay, I finally conceded to the Mission of the Week format. It’s obviously staying. The showrunners made that clear at this point.

I really tried to like Wonder Woman. Really, I did. As one of my ultimate favorite superheroes, I was more than excited when they announced she would get her own standalone movie. Still, I found myself dazed, confused, and well…bored upon seeing her grace the big screen. As someone who’s always prided himself on being […]
