In traditional Star Trek fashion, Kirk makes an impassioned speech to Mirror Spock (the one with the iconic goatee) about the need to reform such an empire, if only because all this fascism was doomed to collapse under its weight eventually. Surprisingly, Deep Space Nine followed up on the Mirror Universe, and while we still never got a look at this dimension’s Earth, we did discover that the Empire had collapsed. In a dark twist, it collapsed specifically because Mirror Spock ended up successfully reforming the Terran Empire, leaving it weak and vulnerable to an unholy Klingon/Cardassian alliance.

What, exactly, did Headland say about The Acolyte and Darth Plagueis? In an interview with Nerdist, she was asked point-blank about the Sith Lord–specifically, if she knew “how the whole story of the galaxy far, far away, from The Acolyte to him training Palpatine, connects?” The interviewer admitted that he was a Darth Plagueis fanboy who felt compelled to ask the question because, like many other Star Wars fans, he had been waiting many years for this legendary bad guy to make an appearance. Because of this context, it would have been unsurprising if The Acolyte showrunner gave a firm “no” regarding the show connecting to Darth Plagueis. Instead, Headland surprised us all by saying “If I continue to get to tell this story, I know how I would like that to play out…I think it’s pretty co...

While he’s really only in one scene, Admiral Motti makes a big splash in A New Hope because he’s the ultimate Death Star fanboy. He insists that the Empire doesn’t have to worry about the Rebel Alliance because “this station is now the ultimate power in the universe.” That’s when Darth Vader decides to put the admiral in his place by saying “the ability to destroy a planet is insignificant next to the power of the Force.” That’s when Admiral Motti goes buck wild, telling the Sith Lord “don’t try to frighten us with your sorcerer’s ways” and criticizing his “sad devotion to that ancient religion.” All Star Wars fans know what happens next: Vader Force chokes the man, giving us the iconic line “I find your lack of faith disturbing.” At a command from Grand Moff Tarkin, Vader releases Motti...

The Adventures of Mark Twain sees Tom, Huck, and Becky find themselves seeing the scenes from “Eve’s Diary,” The Adventures of Tom Sawyer, and other stories and novels play out. At Twain’s encouragement, the three curious children find themselves ushered into a scene from his story “The Chronicles of Young Satan”, which is where the terror begins. Tom, Huck, and Becky are greeted by a robed figure that, while headless, uses his hand to hold a mask where his face should be. The mask is plain white with large holes for eyes and a thin mouth, existing somewhere in between the Greek masks for comedy and tragedy. The figure introduces himself as Satan, and invites the children into his realm to play. Source link

Blue Lock is set to air on October 5, 2024 on Crunchyroll. The continuation of the series was announced at the end of Season 1 after the end credits of the last episode. However, as for what Blue Lock Season 2 would entail, and when exactly it would come out, there was little information until early July.  Season one was 24 episodes long, and covered about 90 chapters of the manga. The series ended with the top 35 players having advanced to the Third Selection. Since the first season covered about 90 chapters or about half of the manga’s published content, Blue Lock Season 2 will possibly cover about 90 chapters as well, adapting volumes 12 to 23.  However, Blue Lock Season 2 is also meant to be shorter, only 14 episodes, so they may only get through about half of the volumes. This would p...
