By G.P. Avants From my first impression of Logan I observed a tired and weary world. Things have progressed since the last time we have seen Dr. Xavier, Wolverine and the world where humans and mutants co-habitate. Technology has progressed, but the mutants are all but extinct. Oddly, humans have become a distant colder species….
Kryptonite ain’t a ‘Small’ Issue
By G.P. Avants It took me some time, but I finally got around to watching the TV series, Smallville. It is a whole different twist on the Superman backstory. We get to understand Clark Kent and his fiery entry into our world and what else followed in his wake. When Smallville opens it does so…
The Fast Track of Destiny
By G.P. Avants I finally got into the second season of the Flash. It’s taking me time to get up to speed, but we have now learned along with Barry Allen, what the Speed Force is. His journey has taken him places that he could never imagine and has affected all us in…
Nothing Stronger than a Father’s Love
by R3 With Marvel and Fox’s next film in the X-Men universe on the horizon, I’d thought that we could take a brief look into the X-23 character that will be featured in the movie Logan. I would be lying if I said that my family is perfect. There are differences, battles and things that…
Trust Goes both Ways
By G. P. Avants Who is a good guy and a true friend in crisis? In a world on turmoil it takes a little insight and wisdom to know whom to trust. In Rogue One we are thrust right into a time when sides are being taken and loyalties tested. Gaylen Erso’s life…
Never Tell God the Odds
by R3 Without a doubt, the lovable and funny Empirical Security droid that was modified by Captain Cassian Andor to assist him on his missions for the Rebel Alliance, was a highlight in the new Rogue One film. K-2SO is completely different than the droids that we are used to in the Star Wars universe….
We’ll Keep the Light on for You
By G. P. Avants Have you heard of Kyber crystals? Rogue One introduced us to the unique power source used by the Jedi to power their light sabers. We finally learn about the planet Jehda, one of the main holy places the Jedi once called home. What was once a place of light…

Rogue One: Man in a Machine
By G. P. Avants One of the major themes that George Lucas brought up in his Star Wars universe was two opposing forces who have to coexist in time and space. These two entities are polar opposites that are excepted by Jedi and Sith, Empire and Rebels, Humans and every other species alike….
Rogue One: Must We Fear the Man from Mustafar?
By G. P. Avants We all saw it coming. His unmistakable shadow was cast across the big screen. In the murky air of a volatile planet, Darth Vader loomed larger than life, though he was a harbinger of death. Rogue One took us to his castle on the fiery planet of Mustafa, where…
Rogue One: Walking Blind
By G.P. Avants In Rogue One we come to a dark chapter in galactic history. The Jedi are all but extinct, while the Empire breathes a sigh of relief. What is left behind, in their eyes, are blind fools clinging to an antiquated religion whose time has passed. They have even gone so…
A Rebel at Heart
By G.P. Avants The Rebel Alliance is the star of Rogue One. We had a small sampling of this rag-tag team of heroes in the original Star Wars trilogy. Now we have made privy to who these people are and how mismatched these rebels truly are. Think about the Empire as obsessed with perfection and…
