As a fan of the show, I’m just excited to see what they come up with.” Reviewing season two of the show, NME said: “…The plot is tweaked enough that it doesn’t feel stale … this franchise is finally on an exciting new path.

Rarely do we see actors that have appeared in both “Star Trek” and “Star Wars” franchises, but given that Lucasfilm is developing multiple live-action shows and films at the same time, there is going to be franchise crossover at some point. The third season of the Disney+ series “The Mandalorian” is currently shooting in southern California at the central production hub, and a new casting addition sees an old ‘Trek’ actor from the original wave of films join the “Star Wars” universe.

Bingeworthy has returned—the relaunch of a fairly-long dormant Playlist TV podcast that will no longer stay asleep! We’ve been in a new, supercharged and advanced age of streaming for about two years now— the uber years beyond Netflix. Everyone has their “+” subscription service, and, hell, Disney+ only launched at the very end of 2019, with Apple, Paramount, Peacock quickly following in their footsteps in the subsequent year (with more to come to be sure).

Star Wars character’s name following their “falling out” earlier this month.“I’m going to say this once and once only, this black eye is from my surfboard,” Hill said. “It is not from a fist fight I got into with Baby Yoda because of our falling out.”In the caption, Hill escalated the conflict by challenging Baby Yoda to a virtual DJ battle on Verzuz.A post shared by Jonah Hill (@jonahhill)“That being said I do officially challenge Baby Yoda to a @verzuztv battle,” Hill wrote.

In a night filled with upsets and snubs, one of the more obvious narratives was the lack of breakthrough success for Disney+ and its shows. Despite an impressive number of nominations for “WandaVision” and “The Mandalorian,” Disney+ mostly sat out Sunday evening, racking up technical awards like Outstanding Stunt Performance or Sound Mixing and missing entirely on the higher-profile actor, writer, and direction categories.

In yet another sign the Television Academy may need to seriously reconsider some of its categories, Claire Foy won her second Emmy Award for playing Queen Elizabeth II in “The Crown.” This win, however, came in the Guest Actress in a Drama Series category and for a less than 5 minute appearance in the fifth season of the series.

Though it has been teased for months now, there’s surprisingly not much revealed about the upcoming Disney+ series, “The Book of Boba Fett.” We know it’s a direct spinoff of the hugely popular “The Mandalorian.” And we know the cast and crew that is involved. But outside of that, fans are largely in the dark about what the show has in store for them.

Much in keeping with the tradition of hiring a safecracker to do security for a bank, Lucasfilm’s Industrial Light and Magic have hired a YouTube creator who came to internet attention for their work “fixing” a digitally de-aged Mark Hamill that appeared towards the end of the most recent season of “The Mandalorian,” making an already spooky bit of CGI just that little bit spookier and detached from reality.

People are getting vaccinated, movie theaters are reopening and Oscar season is almost mercifully over. Yes, it’s time for the MTV Movie and TV Awards to return.

The last guild award ceremony of this long protracted awards season went to the American Society of Cinematographers and they were in a “Mank” mood for the 2021 ASC Awards. Their premiere honor went to Erik Messerschmidt for his work on David Fincher‘s passion project.

Did we suggest there were no more guild honors to be handed out? Surprise! It’s not the ASC that has the last laugh before Oscar nominations, but the American Cinema Editors instead.
