A newly restored version of the original 1977 Star Wars will return to theaters for the film’s 50th anniversary on February 19, 2027.
In short, The Last Jedi felt like it was a film desperately trying to course correct The Force Awakens' lack of progress and in doing so drastically changes things, sometimes in seemingly spiteful and heartbreaking ways. It's the boldest Star Wars film yet and it represents the end of the Star Wars that we (the older generation) have come to know and love - in more ways than one.
I’m talking about the rise of what I’ve deemed “meta-entertainment” and how movies are becoming collective, almost communal creative endeavors, and how this practice needs to stop.
Star Wars: The Last Jedi, the latest installment in the Star Wars saga, has now been in theaters for almost a month and while it's been a critical and commercial success, it's been extremely divisive amongst fans. But what Star Wars “feels like” is different to many different generations of people. Yes, it takes risks, and yes it takes Star Wars in new directions, but that’s the best thing about it.

Volonaut has unveiled the Volonaut Airbike, a strikingly futuristic flying hoverbike reminiscent of the speeder bikes from Star Wars.
"Ready Player One" may be the latest most egregious manifestation of nerd-pandering to date, but entertainment directed at nerds and geeks, clearly, isn't going anywhere, nor should it. A lot of it, after all, is quite great. I just ask filmmakers, and the studios supporting them, to be more respectful of their audience, and the audience, in turn, to dial back the toxicity.
Looking back at the first five years of the marriage between Disney and Star Wars reveals a largely positive coupling. Not every move or decision they've made concerning the franchise has been universally loved and there's always the concern of oversaturation, but at any rate, the return of Star Wars has been welcome, and not only because there isn’t a Jar Jar Binks in sight. It’s just plain better to have Star Wars in our lives than not.

Fandom, clearly, is broken, in a lot of key ways and it really needs to get back to loving the movies, and getting joy out of them, and not using them as a platform for irrational hostility.
Season 20 of South Park has really shown why Trey Parker and Matt Stone don't get enough credit for their creative genius. Beneath all the crude, vulgar humor, they've been able to deliver some of the most pointed and insightful social commentary to ever grace a television screen, time and time again. It's a voice that's needed now more than ever in a time and climate this divided and uncertain. They manage to perfectly reflect our feelings about how we, as a country, are dealing with change in one of the most clever ways possible. Star Wars.
