HMDYK About The Acolyte Cast

The Acolyte

On Day 1 of the Star Wars Celebration the cast of The Acolyte seem to receive the most attention. There were nine cast members across four interviews. All of these interviews can be seen on the Star Wars YouTube channel. Most of these folks are fairly unknown; a couple of these names might stand out. How much do you know about The Acolyte cast?

Carrie-Anne Moss is listed on the IMDB page but she was not interviewed. If you don’t recognize her name, you will recognize her face as Trinity from The Matrix movies.

I’ll try my best to keep this post from getting too verbose. I’ll try to follow a format similar to the voice dubbing post I did a couple of years ago. We do not know most of the names of any of these characters from The Acolyte.

The Armorer Chapter 23

Title: The Spies
Director: Rick Famuyima
Runtime: 52 minutes

This is the penultimate episode of Season 3. The folks that attended the Star Wars Celebration got to watch it early and, surprisingly, nobody posted any spoilers. Granted I didn’t go looking for spoilers because I would never do that. This is an amazing episode! One of the best of the season! Let’s talk about The Mandalorian Chapter 23.

Now that the clans are reunited, it’s time to return to Mandalore and reclaim their home planet. However, danger awaits them, and it’s more than the beasts that survived the Imperial bombings.

Star Wars Celebration Announcements

In Star Wars

The Star Wars Celebration in London kicked off today and here are a few of the announcements and details about upcoming series and movies. I wish I were there but England is an expensive trip to make. All of these details came from the Live broadcast on the Star Wars YouTube channel.

Before I get into all the Star Wars details, let’s quickly cover the non-Star Wars IP that was discussed. Of course, I’m referring to the next Indiana Jones movie and the unveiling of the newest trailer. During an interview with director James Mangold he tells us that John Williams, at 91 years old, did compose the entire score. The man is a legend.

Ahsoka Teaser Trailer

In Ahsoka, Star Wars

The Star Wars Celebration begins today, in London, and, as I predicted, we got our first Ahsoka teaser trailer. It is also available to watch on Disney+, or you check it out below!

We see a lot of familiar faces and places (if you’ve watched Rebels). Live-action Lothal and Huyang (whom I hope is still voiced by David Tennant is confirmed to reprise the voice) all look fantastic!! There are a few new faces too. I don’t recognize the blond Sith chick; the name Baylan sounds familiar but he is also a mystery.

Did anyone else get chills when Ahsoka called Thrawn the “heir to the Empire“???! The story for this series emerges from Star Wars Rebels. My advice is to go watch it before August otherwise you might be a bit confused.

MMT: Comedy Month (2023)

In Monthly Movie Theme, Movies

March is comedy month. Chosen simply because my birthday is in March and comedy is my favorite genre. Almost half of my Plex library is comedy movies. I guess I love to laugh. For each themed month, I try to choose movies with a common element. Last year it was an ode to Jack Lemmon and Walter Matthau. This year my selection of movies is all from the ’90s:

“You know, for Kids!”

I’m curious how many folks have seen all of these movies. In my opinion, they are all underappreciated. Down Periscope is another movie that I have seen enough times I can quote it. In fact, it’s one of those movies I find myself quoting in conversations. This is, also, Patton Oswalt’s film debut.
