Star Wars: The Force Awakens was a huge success in 2015, but one of the biggest questions from the film is, ‘Who are Rey’s parents?’

Could Rian Johnson’s Star Wars: Episode VIII provide some answers? It’s possible, according to Daisy Ridley.

During an interview with Vulture, the actress was asked if Rey is related to Obi Wan Kenobi.

“We will see in a year,” Ridley said. “Just sit tight on that question.”

Ridley seems to be hinting that fans will find out in Episode VIII.

There have been several fans theories about Rey’s parents.

Some think she’s Obi-Wan Kenobi’s daughters. Many believe she’s a member of the Skywalker family. Others think she could be connected to Jyn Erson, a character in the upcoming Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.

Speaking of Rogue One, Ridley also revealed that she’s excited to see the film, even though she knows the ending.

“I am just excited to see how it is, because I have heard it is so so different, and its own thing. I have no die what happens – I know the ending, but I have no idea what happens in it.”

Adam Driver, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, John Boyega, Oscar Issac and Lupita Nyong’o also star in the Force Awakens sequel.

Star Wars: Episode VIII hits theaters December 15, 2017.

Review: ‘Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Diamond Is Unbreakable’: Episode 30

Cats Love Yoshikage Kira

This one is going to take some explaining. The creature in the picture above is a Stand. This shouldn’t come as a shock to anyone as most of the weird incidents from this show have been attributed to Stands lately. Except for those times it turned out to be ghosts or aliens because those also happened recently. Still, this is a Stand which came from a cat who was thought to be dead and buried in the backyard of Kira’s new home. Somehow this new unusual being has the power of a Stand but can be seen by regular humans. Again it’s important to remember, it’s Jojo’s BIZARRE Adventure and sometimes logic goes out the window.

The rest of the episode focuses on the Kira’s family life and how everyone in the house is adjusting to him secretly replacing the husband and father whose life he is now using as an alias. Shinobu Kawajiri, his new wife is completely in love with the new change her husband has undergone and keeps constantly flirting with him.

The new son Hayato is much more suspicious. Of course this kid had the entire house wired for surveillance before his father was replaced with a superpowered killing machine so being suspicious is a default setting for him. Hayato is able to discover where his father has hidden Stray Cat and discovers his father is not who claims to be. This is accomplished by Kira monologuing about how he would have to kill Hayato if his secret was ever revealed. For a guy who is so concerned about giving away a single detail right he really shot himself in the foot by deciding to narrate his maniacal thought process out loud.

The tension with the Kawajiri family is delightful every time it is used in the show. With the series reaching its conclusion and Kira’s secret out, the drama will be even more intense as this mother and son may become victims of Kira’s demented methods.

Jojo’s Bizarre Adventure: Diamond is Unbreakable is streaming on Crunchyroll.

Review: ‘Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans’ Season 2: Episode 4

The Trigger For Promotion

The battle started in the previous episode wraps up quick but not before the new team from Gjallahorn and Tekkadan get into a wrestling match in an effort to see who gets to capture the pirate boss and claim victory. It’d be comical if not for the fact characters could die any moment.

From their, the rest of the episode deals with the battle’s aftermath. The Teiwaz group is pleased with Tekkadan’s accomplishments and gives them a big reward. Their are some who aren’t so pleased with this decision though. The team may be getting too big, too fast which will only result in them getting more enemies who want their hot streak to end.

Hash asks Mika to talk to Orga about letting him become a mobile suit pilot. At this point it’s hard to tell if he isn’t still resentful towards Mika or not and if actually allowing into a robot won’t result in Mash becoming an enemy later in the season. Probably would still be a good idea to keep an eye on him for now.

Also, the team decides to pay a visit to the businessman who sold out Kudelia. Let’s just say negotiations break down in the worst way possible. Despite their success, both Mika and Orga still haven’t lost their edge.

The series is off to a great streak of episodes this season but it still feels like Tekkadan is on too much of a hot streak. Given the tough road other characters have had in previous Gundam series, happy endings don’t come until the show reaches its finale. With all the success the group has had so far, their is a good chance the entire Tekkadan organization may face dark times in the future.

Mobile Suit Gundam: Iron-Blooded Orphans Season 2 is streaming on Daisuki.

Wow! The Season 7 Premiere Has Just Changed ‘The Walking Dead’ Forever.

You better stop reading here if you didn’t watch the season 7 premiere of ‘The Walking Dead‘ on AMC! Since the cliff-hanger finale, fans have been dying to know who did Negan kill and how will Season 7 be changed by it?

Well we have our answer…

Spoiler Alert:

Viewers were shocked to see that Abraham was one of the ones who suffered the beating from Lucille by the villainous Negan. This rocks the show because he was such an important part of the story and a core member of the group. Comic book fans weren’t expecting this so it makes it even more impactful.

The death was just as graphic as many expected. Lucille was very dirty with all the blood and gore. This killing also shocked the entire group as they all instantly appeared traumatized by the merciless killing.

Abraham’s last words will also live on in infamy as he proclaimed “Suck my nuts” as he was being slaughtered.

Another shocking moment from the premiere was when Glenn was killed as well!

This was expected from comic book readers but after the Abraham killing, the viewers let their guard down for a moment. This killing was even more graphic than the first one! You saw Glenn’s eye pop out of its socket as he screamed for Maggie. It was a heartbreaking and disgusting moment.

What did you think of the season 7 premiere of ‘The Walking Dead‘? Did death of Glenn and Abraham shock you or were you expecting it?

Let me know in the comments below!

‘The Walking Dead‘ is on AMC, next Sunday at 9pm.

JJ Abrams Discusses Cut Footage from Rey’s Forceback

Rey’s vision did without the epic showdown between Skywalker and Vader. Here’s why:

In the latest episode of the ‘Star Wars Show’ we were given the gift of a behind the scenes, never been heard clip of JJ Abrams, which will be included in the “Force Awakens’ 3D Special edition. According to my source, Abrams talks about why the light saber fight between Darth Vader and Luke Skywalker was cut out of Rey’s vision.

“In this scene, she is drawn to this place, almost like Cinderella,” Abrams begins. “And she goes to this box, which, when she opens, she discovers something that of course has no meaning to her; she’s never seen this before; she doesn’t know what it is. But, it has meaning to the audience. Touching the lightsaber triggers what we called the ‘Forceback.’ There were many iterations of this. In one, from this Cloud City corridor, she looked down and saw Vader fighting Luke — which we ended up cutting. We wanted it to be a more personal story, something she couldn’t comprehend, that was overwhelming to her, frightening to her. That was taking her through all these elemental experiences of fire, of rain, snow, wind, but also, she was being confronted with truths about the Force, about the past, the Knights of Ren here, the past for herself. She realizes the cries she heard were actually her own cries as a young girl being taken away from her family. And then she hears a voice, ‘Rey.’ And that’s Obi-Wan Kenobi.”

‘Star wars Episode VII : The Force Awakens” takes place 30 years after the defeat of the galactic empire. The First Order looks to rule the galaxy, and only a select few heroes can save it.

Starring Harrison Ford, Mark Hamill, Carrie Fisher, Adam Driver, John Boyega, and Daisy Ridley as Rey.

Star Wars: The Force Awakens 3D Special Edition will be released October 31swt, look for it in the US and Canada on November 15th.

Arrow Hits 100, Marc Guggenheim Reveals Title and Extras!

100 episodes already? Arrow’s show runner releases title of episode, and a few details about the milestone.

Not only has the title been revealed, but according to my source, at an event celebrating the 100th episode of Arrow, the episode is also going to be a cross-over, Legends of Tomorrow, The Flash, and Supergirl are all getting in on this action. For this awesome occasion, we get another cross over episode. These are fan favorites, as well as just plain awesome. “Invasion!”, is based on the 1988 DC crossover event series.

“I’m giving you an exclusive — because you’re the only one who’s asked,” Guggenheim joked. “Arrow episode 508 is called ‘Invasion!’ with the exclamation point. And Legends of Tomorrow 207 is going to be ‘Invasion!’. I’ll leave it up to you to guess what The Flash is called.”

“Invasion” was written by Keith Giffen back in the 80s, with art featured by McFarland, and Bart Sears, this was a huge publicity stunt by DC. It was published in three over sized issues, the team even made an edition of ” Daily Planet” with a full page headline that read “Earth to Invaders: Drop Dead!”

When Geggenheim shared on Twitter the front page of the script for “Legends of Tomorrow” the title at that time was blacked out. Shortly after, the CW must have leaked that the Demeontors were going to be villain’s on this crossover, so Geggenheim thought it was good to break the news.

‘Arrow’ airs Wednesdays at 8, ‘DC’s Legends of Tomorrow’ airs Thursdays at 8, “Flash’ on Tuesdays at 8, and ‘Supergirl’ Mondays at 8.

We can expect this epic crossover to air in early December!

In The Walking Dead season 7 premiere tonight, we finally will have closure to one of the most controversial cliffhangers in T.V. history. Negan (Jeffrey Dead Morgan) will choose which member of Rick’s group will have a date with his bat Lucille. Theories have been floated as to who in the cast may or may not be meeting their end on Sunday night, but the most remarkable part in all of this is little has leaked about who dies tonight … until now.

If you don’t want to know who may or may not meet the fat end of Negan’s bat, then please stop reading right now.

Okay, here is the clip that was leaked on Reddit.

What do you guys think of this clip? Could this be the answer we’ve been waiting for? What was odd about the clip to me was the music in the background. Maybe this is part of some dream sequence? Either way, it seems as if we are headed for a brutal start to the seventh season of The Walking Dead.
