In Star Wars, there isn't anything more iconic than the Force, the primary source of power for the Jedi and Sith. The Force is an energy field created by the collective life in the universe and, therefore, resides in all living things, and anyone in Star Wars can wield it. It goes by many names, too; the Lew'elans call it The Tide, and the Mustafarians call it The Life Current. However, certain beings that possess a high midi-chlorian count are more in tune with the Force and deemed force-sensitive.

In The Empire Strikes Back, Yoda complained to Luke and Obi-Wan that he trained Jedi for “800 years.” When he passed away in Return of the Jedi, Yoda was 900 years old, which means he was training Jedi since he was a spry 100. But how old is Yoda when The Acoylte shows him during the High Republic era of Star Wars?

This article contains spoilers for The Acolyte season 1 finale. After eight short episodes, The Acolyte has come to an end. The Disney+ series upped the ante with an action-packed finale that tied off most of the show’s loose ends and neatly set things up for a potential season 2. With The Acolyte being billed as Star Wars’ first Sith-centric live-action outing, the series was always going to explore the darker side of the Force and how the Jedi aren’t the white knights they’re sometimes portrayed as.

Star Wars has always been known for its weird names, from pod-racer Ebe E. Endecott to the part-time singer, part-time bounty hunter Sy Snootles. However, none of these names are anywhere near as mind-blowing as the full name for Jedi Master Yoda. As to be expected from original creator George...

Warning: This article contains spoilers for The Acolyte finale in 3, 2, 1…. Did you ever hear the tragedy of Darth Plagueis the Wise? I thought so. Anyone watching The Acolyte is bound to know all about the heinous horse-faced Sith lord, which is why there have been a bunch of theories about how the unseen evil one could be connected to events behind the scenes.

‘The Acolyte’ justified its entire existence with one mind-melting cameo that makes it impossible for Disney Plus to cancel it

[Ed. note: This post contains spoilers for season 1 of Star Wars: The Acolyte.]. Darth Plagueis has made his live action debut thanks to the season 1 finale of The Acolyte. The show didn’t make much mention of the Sith Lord, deciding instead to simply show him peering out from behind a rock in observation of the Stranger (Manny Jacinto) and his soon-to-be-padawan, Osha (Amandla Stenberg). Even still, it’s a pretty monumental moment for longtime dorks who know the tale of Darth Plagueis the Wise by heart.

In the classic Star Wars trilogy, we all knew that the baddies had red lightsabers because they were bad, but oddly, an explanation as to why the blades were that color wasn’t firmly established in canon until after the prequels, and while the sequel films were underway. Hardcore Star Wars fans might know that all red lightsabers were once a different color, but what’s interesting, is that we’ve never actually seen this process happen on screen. That is, until now.

With an assassination attempt on Donald Trump at a rally in Pennsylvania on July 13, 2024, the U.S. experienced another violent episode in its increasingly polarized politics. Former President Trump, who’s about to formally become the GOP nominee for president in the 2024 election, survived the attempted assassination when, initial reports said, a bullet grazed his ear . But one rally attendee was killed , more spectators were injured and the suspected gunman is also dead. The Conversation’s politics editor, Naomi Schalit, spoke with University of Massachusetts, Lowell, scholar Arie Perliger after the event. Perliger offered insight from his study of political violence and assassinations. Given the stark political polarization in the U.S., Perliger said, “it’s not a surprise that eventually people engage in violence.”
