Supacell Episode 3 Review: Control And Community


The first two episodes of Supacell could have done a more thorough job of focusing on Sabrina (Nadine Mills) and other women in the show. Instead, they’ve served primarily as support characters for the male narrative. So Sabrina’s episode is the one I’ve been waiting for, as it brings...

It's Time To Save Star Wars: Obi-Wan From Being Stuck On Xbox


There’s a Star Wars game out there that is hard to play in 2024 because, for whatever reason, it remains trapped on the hard-to-emulate OG Xbox without any official remakes, remasters, or backward compatibility support. That agme is Star Wars: Obi-Wan.Read more

The Acolyte Episode 5 Review: Stunning Battles, Shallow Characters


After a slow episode 4, The Acolyte turns the volume all the way up on lightsaber battles with an episode that is worth every minute of screen time and then some. Featuring perhaps the best lightsaber choreography in Star Wars history, here the action takes priority over plot and character...

The Acolyte's Fourth Episode Is A Mundane Misstep

The Acolyte Episode 3 Review: Star Wars Finds Religion In A Whole New Way


Just because you can grab an audience with a name like Star Wars doesn’t mean you can keep their attention. With its third episode, The Acolyte introduces a theme so big and so important—religion—that if the show doesn’t take it seriously in the coming episodes, it may lose mine.Read more

The Latest Acolyte Episode Is Star Wars At Its Most Sexy, Deadly


Star Wars is a lot of things, but it is rarely sexy. A few things spring to mind: Anakin Skywalker’s bare chest after a nightmare, Padme’s midriff in the fighting pit, or a sidelong glance from Han Solo, but in recent history the franchise has been somewhat devoid of sex and death. Kylo Ren and...

The Acolyte Episode Two Review: Exploring The Gray Between Light And Dark


Full disclosure: While I’m aware of The Acolyte’s interconnectivity to the Star Wars: High Republic comic books, I’ve only read a few issues and don’t follow the back and forth with the intensity of a “serious fan.” I’m watching the show on its own merits, and at least so far, am impressed by...
