Trailer-Ahsoka

Disney has just unveiled the first trailer for the highly anticipated live-action series, “Star Wars: Ahsoka,” and fans are in for a treat. The visually stunning trailer premiered at the Star Wars Celebration event and left fans in awe.

The series takes place after the fall of the Empire, where former Jedi knight Ahsoka Tano (played by Rosario Dawson) investigates an emerging threat to the vulnerable galaxy. Alongside Natasha Liu Bordizzo as Sabine, they are on the hunt for Grand Admiral Thrawn, hoping to find the lost Jedi Ezra Bridger, who disappeared with Thrawn many years ago. “Star Wars: Ahsoka” continues several plot threads from the animated series “Star Wars Rebels.”

The trailer reveals that Mary Elizabeth Winstead is playing Hera Syndulla, and the droid Chopper is making a return. Grand Admiral Thrawn also makes an appearance, hinting at Timothy Zahn’s iconic “Heir to the Empire” novels.

Hayden Christensen stars as Anakin Skywalker, alongside Ivanna Sakhno, Eman Esfandi as Ezra, and Ray Stevenson. The limited series is written by Dave Filoni, who executive produces along with Jon Favreau and Kathleen Kennedy.

Fans will have to wait until August 2023 for the series to debut exclusively on Disney+. Overall, “Star Wars: Ahsoka” promises to be an incredible addition to the Star Wars universe.

Film Review-Clerks III

Kevin Smith, the once-indie film-making prodigy, has made his entire career not from his film Clerks, but from the tale of its production. In 1993, Smith famously used multiple credit cards and raised $27,575 to create a charming, dialogue-driven film during his off-hours at the New Jersey convenience store where he worked during the day. 

As a fan of Clerks and Clerks II, I gave Kevin Smith’s latest film, Clerks III, a chance despite his recent lacklustre output. While it is marginally better than Tusk and Yoga Hosers, it falls short in many ways. The movie is a meta-comedy that heavily relies on references and recreations of scenes from the original film, which can be expected, but the execution is so lazy and uninspired that it left me in disbelief. The film fails to expand on the source material in any meaningful way, making it one of the laziest sequels I have ever seen.

Kevin Smith seems to have made a deliberate decision to cater solely to his podcast subscribers, which I am, and alienate everyone else, which is unfortunate. The movie is filled with callbacks and references to the original, but the way it was written — by simply rehashing old material — ensures that it will never be as quotable as its predecessor. While the original film was endlessly quotable, this one falls short due to its lack of originality.
