Link Tank: Could Donnie Yen’s Rogue One Character Return?

Could Donnie Yen’s fan-favorite Rogue One character Chirrut Îmwe make a return to Star Wars? “There is a lot to love about Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. The 2016 film brought us a look into characters who weren’t our original trio and weren’t destined for something greater in the larger Star Wars universe. They saved the galaxy and gave their lives to do so, and I will always hold this film close to my heart.” Read more at The Mary Sue Can’t make it out to a theater to see Shang-Chi?

Focusing on an elite squadron of Rebel (and later New Republic) starfighter pilots, the X-Wing and Rogue Squadron stories were not only like Top Gun in space but also…

Patty Jenkins Calls Star Wars: Rogue Squadron ‘The Greatest Fighter Pilot Movie of All Time’

When folks think of Star Wars, their minds tend to the lightsabers or the blaster pistols: big laser sword fights or shootouts with Stormtroopers.

Rogue Legacy 2 Early Access Showcases a Promising Return for the Rogue-lite

I was a latecomer to the roguelike genre, unable to comprehend how the concept of having your progress almost entirely wiped upon death could be fun – let alone rewarding. Then Rogue Legacy released in 2013 and everything changed. There was just something incredibly moreish about exploring these randomly generated dungeons, dying a lot, and yet still knowing that at least some of my character’s skills would be passed down to a new playable descendant. Cut to 2020 and I find myself uttering “just one more run” all over again in this inventive dungeon-diving sequel. Rogue Legacy 2 officially entered…
