Every Star Wars: Episode V

The Empire Strikes Back is the best Star Wars film ever made, and it will still be the best after Episode IX is released this December. What a brilliant place the rebels found to hide in the harsh snowy dead of the planet Hoth? On the one hand, nobody would expect anybody to willfully reside … Continue reading Every Star Wars: Episode V

Every Star Wars: Episode IV

Now that Rogue One has beautifully filled in several loose connections between the prequel trilogy and the original trilogy, the title crawl in Episode IV: A New Hope is not so useful. That is unless someone is going to watch the film in isolation, but honestly who’s going to do that now that Star Wars is such … Continue reading Every Star Wars: Episode IV

Solo Defeats Low Expectations

MAJOR SPOILERS ALERT! When I heard the announcement of a film centered around Han Solo’s background I shuddered, because Harrison Ford is too old to play the youngest onscreen version of Solo to date.

The Master Key System Is for the Materialistic

On The Master Key System audio book:  In the first sentence of The Master Key System there is a focus on differentiating men, not women, based on their ability to obtain success, wealth, and power. This rhetoric is not ideal for a supposedly spiritually enlightening book at all, let alone in the first sentence. The book … Continue reading The Master Key System Is for the Materialistic
