Who Wants This Odd Star Wars Merchandise?
Star Wars definitely has a far reaching fandom for the past 40-ish years. So naturally, they have monetized the shit out of it. If it has a Wookie, Stormtrooper, or Darth Vader, chances are… somebody bought it. So let us take a look at this odd Star Wars merchandise. Chewbacca Soup Okay, is this Wookie soup?

There is Some Star Wars Manga, and It is Pretty Cool…
I asked myself this question, “I wonder if there is Star Wars Manga?” Well, I went and scoured the internet and found there is a very small selection of Manga that is adapted from the screenplay of the first 4 Star Wars movies that were released. (Episodes 4 to 6, and Episode 1). Today, I take a look at Volume 1 of Episode 4 – A New Hope. Now this article assumes a few things: You’ve seen all Star Wars movies up till Rogue One. If not, you probably don’t want to start with Manga. You’ve seen A New Hope at least 10 times as I will not recap the…

But let us take a look at the original vision for a story with this title. The Last Jedi Begins We begin off with some classic C3PO and…

Starcrash – Possibly the Best Worst Star Wars Ripoff
In 1977, Star Wars – A New Hope, was released. The world was never the same. As you can imagine, the success of that movie spawned countless rip offs at the time. With Star Wars Episode VIII – The Last Jedi coming out soon, I had to see at least one of these ripoffs. I found a doozy of one through poking around on the internet. It was released in 1979.
