![]() ![]() ![]() And even if this sort of divide happens occasionally, it’s certainly not supposed to happen with Star Wars.Įxcept it has. We’re supposed to be snooty snoots, with our noses turned up in the air at all of this populist garbage, as we head into the theater for the latest from Thai auteur Apichatpong Weerasethakul. Critics aren’t supposed to like blockbusters more than the general public. It rarely happens in the opposite direction. Audiences feel it’s better than its reputation. (If you were to make the argument that Rotten Tomatoes is a deeply flawed system at best and actively harmful to the future of criticism at worst, well, I wouldn’t stop you.) If you’ve bought a ticket for a movie - as opposed to having seen it at a free critics screening - you’re far more likely to have self-selected as a fan already, and thus, you’re far more likely to be into the movie. There’s also 2016’s Suicide Squad, with a 26 percent score from critics and a 61 percent score from audiences, for a 35-point gap. Critics, however, only liked the film to the tune of a 40 percent score - a 39-point gap. A divide between movie audiences and critics happens all the time - especially with blockbusters.Ĭonsider the recent case of Justice League, which brought together a bunch of big-name superheroes, to the delight of 79 percent of those who saw it and bothered to register their opinion on Rotten Tomatoes. The entire Skywalker Saga is available to watch on DVD, Blu-ray and 4K, as well as on Disney+. Rey goes to Tatooine, adopts the Skywalker name and looks on at the twin suns as the Skywalker Saga ends. The effort kills her, but Ben returns from his shaft fall to resurrect Rey and dies in the process. Rey summons up the strength of all the Jedi to defeat Palpatine once and for all. Having survived the events of Return of the Jedi, Palpatine has a fleet of ships with planet-destroying weapons, and he wants Rey – his granddaughter – to lead them as Empress Palpatine.īut Palpatine doesn't expect Kylo Ren completing his Bendemption and fighting alongside Rey in the climactic battle, so Palpatine throws Ben down a shaft. The Resistance is in tatters, so it's a perfect time for Emperor Palpatine to come back with his "Final Order" plan. There's no specific timeline put on The Rise of Skywalker, but it's apparently around a year after the events of The Last Jedi. The Book of Boba Fett – approximately 9 ABY The post-credits sequence of the finale set up the spin-off show for Boba. The second season has also introduced fan favourites into the fold, including Ahsoka Tano and Bo-Katan, and brought back Boba Fett after his supposed death. However, the major reveal was left until near the very end as Luke Skywalker showed up to save the day, and take Baby Yoda Grogu away for training in the ways of the Force, leading to a tearful goodbye with Din. The show's second season gave us more about Baby Yoda every episode, including his penchant for eggs and his actual name. We follow the travails of a lone gunfighter called Din Djarin in the outer reaches of the galaxy, far from the authority of the New Republic.īut the only thing you really need to know is that the series introduces 'Baby Yoda' into the Star Wars universe, uniting fans everywhere. It's set after the stories of Jango and Boba Fett as another warrior emerges in the Star Wars universe. The first Star Wars series on Disney+, The Mandalorian, stars Pedro Pascal ( Game of Thrones, Wonder Woman 1984) as the eponymous bounty hunter. Or just watch them all in one go at the start of the timeline as they're currently the earliest Star Wars offerings in the Skywalker Saga. If you were dedicated, you could watch each episode as and when they fall in the timeline, or you could just watch all the Dooku ones before Attack of the Clones and all of the Ahsoka ones before The Clone Wars. The other three episodes focus on Ahsoka Tano from her birth through to her survival of Order 66, which took place in Revenge of the Sith so that's as far as this show goes into the timeline overall. Dooku's final episode directly references Qui-Gon Jinn's death in The Phantom Menace, so that's as far as his episodes go in the timeline. Three episodes focus on Count Dooku during his time with the Jedi before his turn to the Dark Side. Six-episode anthology series Tales of the Jedi doesn't have a definitive place on the Star Wars timeline as each episode takes place at a different point, roughly in the window of 50 BBY to 18 BBY. ![]()
