Considering how many people thought she would wind up being a Skywalker somehow, it’s not entirely un-newsworthy.

No. Sorry, but no. TIE Defenders are top-of-the-line, brand-new fighters - and the Y-Wings are old, refurbished *bombers*. Judging only based on size is...no. This is like saying an F-4 Phantom would win in a dogfight against an F-16 Falcon, just because the Phantom is bigger. Nope.

I think this shot was to re-emphasise that they had the Hammerhead Corvettes used in Rogue One. I think the music cue they used was from one of the trailers too.

After she gave up Dantooine as a misdirect, the Empire sent probes there. The filling quote is from A New Hope that answers your question.

In related news, The Wrap reports that Stranger Things’ David Harbour is in the running to play Cable—and Marvel is even footing the bill for a screen test.

Vagina tentaclata.

I think the smart money is on “some fucking mobile game.”

I happened to watch this episode with closed captions enabled, and they spelled it as “Rukh”. So there ya have it :)

My guess is Syd is literally the woman of his dreams and is a product of his mind. If she is real or entirely fake is up in the air at this point.

It was AMAZING!

We get it, you don’t like Chuck Wendig’s writing style.

When did Star Wars tie-in-hating become the new prequel-hating? This is a good book in a good series.

They have to use bad movies in order to make jokes. Good movies provide fewer jokes. It also costs less to get the rights to crap movies.

Well I already fucking hate Maximus. So good casting I guess.

OK I can exclusively reveal, here on io9, that I am not in Infinity War. I’ve had to keep this under wraps for a while, but I’ve been allowed to let you all know.
