Regardless of how you feel about the Star Wars prequels—maybe they don’t actually deserve our hate, maybe The Phantom Menace is at least important, if not traditionally good, maybe they’re actually just terrible—there’s no denying that there...

In the B-plot of George Lucas' 2002 sci-fi romance "Star Wars: Episode II - Attack of the Clones," the stalwart Jedi Obi-Wan Kenobi (Ewan McGregor) is sent to an ocean planet called Kamino to apprehend an assassin who may be lurking there. Obi-Wan finds more than he expected, as Kamino is the home of a massive cloning facility that has been making duplicates of Jango Fett (Temuera Morrison) for years. There are now millions of him. When Jango Fett catches wise to Obi-Wan's investigation, he leaves Kamino in a miniature spacecraft while Obi-Wan pursues. In order to get Obi-Wan off his tail, Jango flies into a cluttered asteroid field and begins dropping explosive space mines called seismic charges.
The seismic charges, as dramatized in the film, are cylindrical objects that float out into space, hold steady for a moment, and then explode into a flash of blue fire. There is then...

Boba Fett was conspicuous by his absence in The Mandalorian season 3 and, much to the chagrin of actor Temuera Morrison, the bounty hunter even took a backseat to Din Djarin in his own series.
Given the mixed response to The Book of Boba Fett, it's currently unclear what the future holds in store for a character we all thought had died in Return of the Jedi. However, some Star Wars fans are convinced his new armour design has been revealed...in The Simpsons?!
In the latest episode, titled "The Tipping Point," Boba Fett is spotted wearing a suit which features several significant changes to the character's appearance in Disney's recent Star Wars offerings.
As we first pointed out on SFFGazette.com, the design is clearly based on The Book of Boba Fett but includes added details to his shoulder pauldrons and Mandalorian spike decals above his helmet's visor. While this may seem like a stretch,...

"Star Wars: The Clone Wars" lives up to its title by placing a lot of focus on the clone troopers themselves. Some of the characters, like Commander Cody and Commander Bly, were inherited from the "Star Wars" prequel films. The show used the idea that clones had nicknames (instead of only serial numbers) and ran with it, creating many other clones -- including Captain Rex -- with custom names and armor to convey individuality.
One of the more striking clone looks is Commander Doom, who appears only briefly in the "Clone Wars" season 6 premiere "The Unknown." That name isn't an accident; the "Star Wars" website confirms that the creators named Doom after Marvel Comics villain Doctor Victor Von Doom. While Commander Doom gets too little screen time to see if he has the ego of his namesake, the creators used Doctor Doom's design to color his armor.

Stars: Jason Momoa, Patrick Wilson, Amber Heard, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Randall Park, Dolph Lundgren, Temuera Morrison, Martin Short, Nicole Kidman | Written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick | Directed by James Wan
Directed by James Wan, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is both a direct sequel to 2018’s Aquaman (also directed by Wan) and also the fifteenth and final film in the Dceu (the DC Extended Universe). As such, it does the occasional bit of floundering, but it just about treads water, thanks to a mostly seaworthy plot and suitably salty character work.
The plot picks up a few years after the events of the first film, with Arthur Curry / Aquaman (Jason Momoa) now married to Mera (Amber Heard), raising a young son, Arthur Jr. and dividing his time between ruling as the King of Atlantis (complete with shiny orange armour), and fighting crime on the surface world. However, there’s an old enemy waiting in the wings,...

Dark Winds and Blood Quantum actor Kiowa Gordon and Sera-Lys McArthur (Café Daughter, Outlander) have joined the cast of Many Wounds, a contemporary re-imagining of Lee Tamahori’s ground-breaking 1994 Maori film Once Were Warriors, set among indigenous communities in Canada.
Skye Pelletier (Prey) stars in Many Wounds as Mashka, a young teenager on the cusp of being swallowed up by a colonial system meant to further the goals of assimilation who becomes a warrior to protect his family.
Ojibway filmmaker Jeremy Torrie, who wrote and is directing Many Wounds, and producing the film together with Métis producer Tanya Brunel, said he drew on his own personal, painful experiences growing up indigenous in Winnipeg for the script.
“Our intention with this film is to reveal some uncomfortable truths about the effects of generations of forced assimilation and genocide by the Canadian government toward our peoples for a society largely unaware of how deep the wounds go,...

Aquaman 1 vs Aquaman 2 Box Office (Photo Credit – IMDb)
Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom was expected to perform poorly at the worldwide box office. But it managed to bring in decent numbers and break even. The China collections have now concluded, and below is a detailed comparison of the closing figures with the original film starring Amber Heard and Jason Momoa in the lead.
Aquaman 2 was released in China on December 20, 2023. The superhero film left behind The Marvels and The Batman in advance booking sales. It was largely dependent on spot bookings, and despite leaving behind films like Ant-Man And The Wasp: Quantumania and Oppenheimer, analysts were worried that the film might wipe out ahead of New Year’s due to a big local release.

Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom was predicted to drown at the box office, but it proved otherwise. It looks like Jason Momoa, Amber Heard, and the team’s charm from the original movie drew the audience to the theatres. Despite mixed reviews, Aquaman 2 is now Warner Bros’ fifth highest-grossing movie after the pandemic era. Scroll below for all the details!
Aquaman 2 stars Patrick Wilson in the lead alongside Jason Momoa. It narrates a tale of brotherhood, so Amber Heard, aka Mera, had to take a back seat. While the actress has claimed her role was significantly reduced amid the Johnny Depp legal row, director James Wan claims it was always the plan. Either way, there was much negativity ahead of release, but the Dceu film has managed to sail its boat.

The world's many Starwoids will likely be able to tell you that Boba Fett's costume was originally conceived as the armor for an elite squad of Empire Stormtroopers that were to be called Super Troopers, an army that was to be featured in the 1980 "Star Wars" sequel "The Empire Strikes Back." The documentary film "Under the Helmet" has early test footage of the Super Trooper armor, and it was originally meant to be flat white. It turns out, sadly, that "Empire" didn't have the budget to build the 100 Super Trooper suits they wanted, so the prototype suit was painted maroon and olive and given to the bounty hunter character Boba Fett. The suit was worn by actor Jeremy Bulloch.
Boba Fett didn't have much of a character, but his suit and helmet were so cool that he developed a weirdly passionate legion of fans. In the years between the...

Boba Fett is, inarguably, one of the most beloved characters in "Star Wars" history. That's no small thing, given that the franchise also includes half a dozen (or more) pop culture icons. Perplexingly, the fan-favorite bounty hunter had very little screen time in the original trilogy and didn't have a solo project until "The Book of Boba Fett" arrived in 2022. For years, it was one of the finest examples of "less is more" ever committed to film. The man under the helmet was Jeremy Bulloch, and the actor will forever be tied to that role. And, as it just so happens, Bulloch kind of just lucked his way into the role.
Bulloch did a Reddit Ama back in 2014. At one point, a fan asked the actor how the role of Boba Fett was pitched to him. Indeed, the actor appeared as Fett in "The Empire Strikes Back," but it's not...

Jon Favreau's "Star Wars" series "The Mandalorian," which debuted in 2019, was the first live-action "Star Wars" TV series and is set only a few years after the events of "Return of the Jedi," but a few decades before the events of "Star Wars: The Force Awakens." Although the titular Mandalorian (Pedro Pascal) is not the fan-favorite bounty hunter character of Boba Fett (who appeared to die in "Return of the Jedi"), the exploration of a similarly-helmeted character likely served to expand on Boba Fett's backstory by proxy. It wouldn't be until later that Boba Fett (Temuera Morrison) would be revealed to have survived "Jedi," and get a TV series of his own.
The first season of "The Mandalorian" involved the transport of an alien infant belonging to the same gremlin-like species as Yoda. The Baby Yoda, named Grogu, became a marketing bonanza, and Grogu merch is now plentiful across all sci-fi collectibles outlets.

At the worldwide box office, there is no chance that Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom is getting anywhere near its billion-dollar predecessor. Starring Jason Momoa in the lead, the film debuted in Japan last Friday, and the opening weekend collections have been better than The Flash and Black Adam. Scroll below for the latest updates on Aquaman 2!
The original Aquaman was a box office blockbuster. The Dceu film grossed a staggering $1.15 million gross worldwide. The craze for the sequel would have been top-notch, but the multiple delays spoiled the party. In addition, there was a lot of negativity surrounding the film because of Amber Heard‘s role reduction and alleged re-shoots.

After making his triumphant return in The Mandalorian, Temuera Morrison was finally given center stage with The Book of Boba Fett. The seven-episode series revealed how Boba Fett had survived his supposed death in the Sarlaac pit in Return of the Jedi and his quest to take over Jabba the Hutt’s criminal empire. The Book of Boba Fett received mixed reviews, but fans have still been wondering if and when they might see season 2 of the series.
Well, Temuera Morrison spoke with NewsHub over the holidays and didn’t seem optimistic about the chances of a second season. “I don’t know what’s going on there,” Morrison said. “We’re coming out of this downtime period so I think everyone is just settling back in and it all goes back to budgets and what they want to do and how much the thing costs. I really don’t know.

Color me surprised twice over. I missed the press screening of Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, the closing chapter of the DC Extended Universe, and ventured to a theater to check out a screening in IMAX on Christmas Day. The lobby was packed with customers, most of whom were going to see The Color Purple on its opening day. Given how much I’ve forgotten random stuff recently, I’ll go with that as the excuse for why I wasn’t expecting so many people to be watching movies on December 25th. That was surprise number one. Surprise number two, Warner Bros. Pictures’ Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom wasn’t a complete disaster.
Sure, it’s not going to earn a spot in the Top 10 (out of 15) Dceu films.

Given how much I’ve forgotten random stuff recently, I’ll go with that as the excuse for why I wasn’t expecting so many people to be watching movies on December 25th. That was surprise number one. Surprise number two, Warner Bros. Pictures’ Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom wasn’t a complete disaster.
Sure, it’s not going to earn a spot in the Top 10 (out of 15) Dceu films.

Is Amber Heard In Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom? (Picture Credit: IMDb)
After numerous delays, Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom is finally for the world to experience. Jason Momoa starrer has opened to mixed reviews from critics and audiences. But one constant question, “Is Amber Heard in Aquaman 2?” is being constantly Googled. Scroll below for all the details about her diminished role.
During the $50 million defamation suit against Johnny Depp, Amber claimed Warner Bros significantly reduced her role in the sequel. She also described her appearance as a “very pared-down version” of what was planned for Mera. She was barely a part of the initial promos, apart from a blink-and-miss scene at the end of the first trailer.

James Wan’s Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is a minimum viable product, plopped into the theater with an apathy as pervasive and all-encompassing as the ocean itself. Despite being the successor to a film that got over with fans on the strengths of some big creative swings, Aquaman 2’s job is to simply exist—the last cynical hope of squeezing a few nickels out of the unsalvageable mess that is Warner Bros.’s last decade of superhero movies.
There’s some logic to the approach. Disconnected from having to exist as part of a larger universe, the film keeps things nice and tidy, demanding nothing of viewers. Despite some wild gesticulating toward the idea of Arthur Curry (Jason Momoa) as a bro-ey husband and father to an adorable newborn, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom’s central concern is that Black Manta (Yahya Abdul-Mateen II) still wants revenge for Aquaman...

Aquaman 2 Rotten Tomatoes Score Is Out! (Picture Credit: Facebook)
Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom started its box office journey on the wrong note. The film has suffered multiple delays, which impacted the buzz created by its billion-dollar original film.

The rotten tomatoes score for Aquaman 2 is out, and below are all the details you need to know.
Directed by James Wan, Aquaman And The Lost Kingdom is a tale of brotherhood. Jason Momoa, aka Arthur Curry, recruits his half-brother Orm to find and destroy Black Manta.

You’ve read the stories. You’ve debated the casting announcements. You’ve watched a handful of artists try to do justice to a legacy of iconic characters that’s now just short of a century old. Maybe you even demanded that Warners release the Snyder Cut. (If so: Um, thanks?) By now, we don’t need to recount to you the long, storied history of the D.C.E.U., or remind you that because of a number of corporate decisions, scandals, disappointments, accusations, and outright Wtf head-scratchers, some...

Stars: Jason Momoa, Patrick Wilson, Amber Heard, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Randall Park, Dolph Lundgren, Temuera Morrison, Martin Short, Nicole Kidman | Written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick | Directed by James Wan
Directed by James Wan, Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom is both a direct sequel to 2018’s Aquaman (also directed by Wan) and also the fifteenth and final film in the Dceu (the DC Extended Universe). As such, it does the occasional bit of floundering, but it just about treads water, thanks to a mostly seaworthy plot and suitably salty character work.
The plot picks up a few years after the events of the first film, with Arthur Curry / Aquaman (Jason Momoa) now married to Mera (Amber Heard), raising a young son, Arthur Jr. and dividing his time between ruling as the King of Atlantis (complete with shiny orange armour), and fighting crime on the surface world. However, there’s an old enemy waiting in the wings,...

In Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom, directed by James Wan and written by David Leslie Johnson-McGoldrick, Jason Momoa reprises his role as Arthur Curry, diving back into the deep and turbulent waters of superhero cinema. With an ensemble cast including Amber Heard, Patrick Wilson, Yahya Abdul-Mateen II, Randall Park, Nicole Kidman and Temuera Morrison, the film navigates through a series of high-stakes conflicts, both personal and global. However, it’s not just the seas that are stormy; the film itself walks a messy path of narrative and visual execution.
Arthur aka Aquaman’s latest adventure kicks off with him recounting a daring hostage rescue to his son, Arthur Jr., followed by a montage of his life post-first film. As king of Atlantis and Queen Mera’s (Heard) husband, he navigates royal duties and family life, discovering his son’s unique ability to communicate with fish. Meanwhile, his nemesis, David Hyde (Mateen II) aka Manta,...

Almost 20 years later, Order 66 — where all the Jedi were suddenly labeled as traitors and thus subject to execution — remains one of the biggest moments of all of "Star Wars". Since the very first "Star Wars" film we'd heard about the Jedi being hunted down — but when it finally happened, it was worse than fans could have imagined.
It is a tragic and harrowing scene that shows several Jedi killed, not by Vader himself or some formidable Sith enemy, but by the very soldiers the Jedi fought alongside. It remains one of the coolest things George Lucas has ever done, and a scene that only got better and more tragic as "The Clone Wars" expanded the relationship between Jedi and clone trooper during the war.
We saw the two groups bond throughout the war, becoming not just allies, but friends. This is particularly true of Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Ahsoka's squads.

Ah, Boba Fett. The bounty hunter with a Mandalorian helmet first appeared in "The Star Wars Holiday Special" in an animated sequence that was slightly less bats**t bizarre than the rest of that monstrosity (which I do admit to having a soft spot for). He would subsequently return in "Star Wars: Episode V -- The Empire Strikes Back," working for Darth Vader (David Prowse/James Earl Jones) and taking the body of Han Solo (Harrison Ford), frozen in carbonite, to Jabba the Hutt. His role was very small, but that character design was just too good for him to fade into the background. Fans went a little wild over him. Eventually, Boba even got a dad and a backstory in the prequel trilogy, in addition to his very own show on Disney+, "The Book of Boba Fett," starring Temuera Morrison.

A fun piece of trivia: the "Star Wars" character Boba Fett, prior to his inclusion in "The Star Wars Holiday Special" -- which didn't air until November 17, 1978 -- made a live appearance in a parade in the San Anselmo County Fair the previous September. The parade may have been before the character had been given a name, and "Star Wars" fans were tantalized to see a new, mysterious figure walking down the street next to Darth Vader. It was the first appearance of Boba Fett.
The stoic, faceless, and largely mute character, because of his cool helmet, became a fan favorite over the years, and Boba Fett's importance has grown since 1978 to the point where he got his own TV series. Boba Fett has been played by many actors over the years. In "Empire" and in "Return of the Jedi," Jeremy Bulloch wore the suit, while Jason Wingreen played his voice.

For a character that first appeared in animation in the "Star Wars Holiday Special" and had only a few lines in "The Empire Strikes Back," Boba Fett did pretty well for himself. If you're a "Star Wars" fan, you've likely had discussions about the craziness of how a brilliant costume design ended up taking Boba Fett from a side character to a fan favorite with his own series.

The year’s Summer is almost behind us, and that means it’s already time to think about what the Fall and Winter cinema season will offer us. Both Marvel and DC will have something to offer before the end of this year, and as Marvel is releasing another chapter in their Multiverse Saga, DC is getting ready to close DC Extended Universe for good with the release of ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom.’
The original ‘Aquaman’ movie was released in 2018, and it was enormously successful. Grossing $1.148 billion, it became the highest-grossing DC movie ever, so naturally, it didn’t take long for Warner Bros. to greenlight a sequel. However, in the last five years, a lot of things have happened around WB and DC Studios, so the upcoming sequel has found itself in a pretty thankless position by the time the first trailer was released.

James Wan earned his recognition by directing known horror movies. His first notable work was 2004’s ‘Saw,’ a horror movie that spawned the entire franchise, for which the tenth installment will be released later this month. Wan also directed ‘Dead Silence,’ and the first two installments of ‘The Conjuring’ and ‘Insidious’ franchises. His first non-horror movie was 2015’s ‘Furious 7,’ which grossed over $1.5 billion. In 2018, he debuted in the superhero genre with ‘Aquaman,’ which grossed $1.148 billion and became the highest-grossing DC movie ever.
After five years of waiting, ‘Aquaman’ will finally get a sequel this December, and Wan returned to direct it. However, DC Studios is currently in a rough era since every DC movie released this year was a commercial failure. Since Wan’s ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom’ is set to close Dceu for good, the box-office predictions for the upcoming sequel do not look promising at all.

After weeks and months of waiting, wondering if the movie will be delayed, maybe even canceled, the upcoming ‘Aquaman’ sequel finally received the first official trailer earlier this week. The trailer promises another visually stunning adventure in which Jason Momoa’s titular character will need to team with his former adversary and half-brother Orm to stop the returning villain Black Manta, who plans to get a hold of Black Trident to exact his revenge on Aquaman.
What’s interesting about ‘Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom’ is that, unlike many superhero sequels, it won’t introduce a new villain but continues the storyline from the previous movie. Black Manta, the supporting antagonist from the previous movie, now returns as the main villain, while Orm, the main antagonist of the previous movie, will return as a supporting anti-hero. That’s how it seems for now, at least.

Hollywood star Jason Mamoa will now don the costume of the iconic sea-based Atlantean superhero for the last time as ‘Aquaman and The Lost Kingdom’ has finally released its new trailer, marking the final film of the old Dceu (DC Extended Universe). The film will pick up the threads from 2018’s ‘Aquaman’ and is set after the events of ‘Zack Snyder’s Justice League’, though it predates ‘The Flash’.
‘Aquaman 2’ sees Arthur Curry now ruling over the kingdom of Atlantis as its new king, ruling alongside his wife Mera in the sea kingdom.
The trailer begins with Arthur Curry making jokes and wisecracks about having been unemployed for four years, while talking to his dad at his lighthouse home, before saying that now he finally has a job, and is now a king to over half a billion people including all creatures of the ocean.
But Black Manta has not forgotten his vengeance,...

At long last, the trailer for "Aquaman and the Lost Kingdom" is here, giving us a glimpse of the further adventures of Arthur Curry aka Aquaman (Jason Momoa). I recently got to attend a Q&a with director James Wan who spoke about the film, including something I'm certain a bunch of you are excited for. You may have noticed a second passenger on Aquaman's (Jason Momoa) giant seahorse in the recent teaser trailer. Yes, friends, that is indeed Topo the drum-playing octopus from the first film. In case you were wondering, Entertainment Weekly confirmed that the seahorse is Aquaman's comic book transportation buddy Storm.
According to Wan, we'll be getting a lot of creatures in the new film, and Topo is not only one of them, but our eight-legged musician is getting a bigger role this time around. If you don't know him from the comics, Topo the Octopus,...
