7 STAR WARS CHARACTERS WHO CHANGED GALACTIC HISTORY BY SWITCHING SIDES

by Amy on October 12, 2018 at 12:20 am
Posted In: News

Via Starwars.com:

WHEN PERSONAL CONVICTIONS CLASHED WITH PRESCRIBED DUTY, THESE CHARACTERS MADE THE DIFFICULT DECISION TO TRUST THEIR INSTINCTS AND SWITCH SIDES.

If Star Wars has taught us anything, it’s that there is an ambiguity to good and evil and the lines between what is right and wrong are often muddied. Each side in a conflict has their own idea of a moral code and what is considered ethical. But our ideas, and sometimes our allegiance, can shift as we grow and learn more.Star Wars is about hope for the future and that future is often shaped by people who have the courage to choose a different path and fight for what they believe in. In fact, several important characters who were vital to critical victories started out working for the opposing side.

Mark Hamill Wants ‘Star Wars’ Fans To Campaign For Carrie Fisher To Receive Walk Of Fame Star Early

by Amy on October 11, 2018 at 2:00 pm
Posted In: News

Via Businessinsider.com:

A real-life Star War is taking shape. Luke Skywalker himself, Mark Hamill, is using the force to get his “Star Wars” co-star Carrie Fisher a star along the Hollywood Walk of Fame — the force of fans, that is.

Hamill asked fans on Twitter on Tuesday to campaign for Fisher — who passed away in 2016 — to receive the honor early, in time for the release of “Star Wars Episode IX” next year. The posthumous rule is a five-year wait to receive a star, but Hamill thinks that with enough support, the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce could make an exception.

“Carrie WILL get her well-deserved Star on the Walk of Fame, it’s only a matter of when,” Hamill wrote. “The rule is a 5-year wait when awarded posthumously. A letter to the Hollywood Chamber of Commerce wouldn’t hurt, urging them to time it to the release of #EpIX.”

MAKE AN EXOGORTH THAT’S EXO-LLENT AT SURPRISING TRICK-OR-TREATERS.

Star Wars certainly has its moments with creepy creatures, but perhaps none are as startling as the space slug that tried to gobble up our beloved heroes in The Empire Strikes Back. If that scene stands out as one of your favorites, commemorate it with an eye-catching pumpkin craft you can put on the porch on Halloween year after year. (Mynocks not included.)
