I began this journey just under a year ago on May 4, 2023 – Watching every piece of Star Wars, allowing one day for each movie/television episode.
I knew this would be a roller coaster with highs and lows. Those highs were awesome as I remembered the feeling that I had when I first saw these movies/shows.
The lows were not very low. I am one who is just happy to be along for the ride. Some of my favorite Star Wars moments are the weirder ones, and I am so excited to see the galaxy expand so much!
Will I ever do this again? Not anytime soon. Just with all the new content added in 2023 and 2024, I would have to add 52 days.
I am excited to be a Star Wars fan in this period of growth, and I can’t wait to see what comes next!
ORIGINAL POST:
Revenge of the Sith was last in theaters in 2005. Since then, there have been five more movies released, and Star Wars has hit the streaming services with Disney+. The amount of Star Wars content has increased significantly!
With this in mind, I am going to begin my Star Wars Mega Marathon! As of May 4, 2023, I am viewing every movie and TV show that is canon (in my head) chronologically. I will give one day to each movie or TV episode.
It should take me 357 days.
Here is the listing. Below that, I am including some thoughts I have on the re-watch that includes the additional perspective of having seen the movies and shows (and a lot of books) before.
This mysterious broadcast occurred in the video game Fortnite on December 15, 2019, four days before the film was released. See video below.
Poe utilizes the technique of lightspeed skipping to escape the First Order. We see four locations during this process: The Crystal Chaos of the Cardovyte The Mirror-Spires of Ivexia The Megafauna Chasm of Typhonic Nebula Ajan Kloss
If you ever want to do the Aki-Aki dance, here is a full version of the song.A closer look at the dagger.This character is not named in the movie right away, but this is Ochi of Bestoon. He is an assassin who features prominently in the comics. See picture below.The loss of a legend.Reinforcements have arrived!Chief Wicket and his son!
4/23/24, Day 356
The Last Jedi
Hope this porg doesn’t accidentally kill his friend.The sacred Jedi texts.This must be traumatic! There is a similar scene in the first season of the Mandalorian where a monkey lizard sees another being roasted.The symbol of the Prime Jedi.A lot of Star Wars storytelling has shown that Jedi Temples are built on top of Sith sources of energy. So this first Jedi Temple must also exist near a source of dark side power.The letters CBPD are on their helmets. My guess is that is the Canto Bight Police Department.In the Clone Wars Micro-Series, they refer to one of the most important Jedi Trials as “The Mirror.”“The greatest teacher, failure is.”
4/22/24, Day 355
The Force Awakens
Stopping the blaster bolt in mid air, a jaw dropping moment!Rey is using the downed ruins of an AT-AT as her home.Black clothing in the Jakku sun? Not envious!Tell that to Kanjiklub!We have learned since the movie’s release that Starkiller Base was built into the planet Ilum.So many Star Wars symbols can be found in these flags and banners. The logo for the 501st. can be seen in the upper left.R2-D2 makes his appearance!JB-007 played by Daniel Craig.R2-KT can be seen on the very right.

This is the astronomic R4-D12. Since this droid and his owner Marcus Speedstar sport a purple color scheme, I can’t help but think this is a reference to the Eminem song that he did with D12 – Purple Hills or Purple Pills (The more explicit version).
3/21/24, Day 323

Don’t mess with the bull. You’ll get the horns! Paul Gleason takes over the role of Jeremitt.

Threepio!Yoda explains that he has trained Jedi for 800 years. He is 900 years old when he dies. Grogu is 50 years old when we meet him in the Mandalorian. Might we extrapolate when Grogu will reach adulthood?In the Clone Wars Micro-Series, it is explained that all padawans must face “The Mirror.”Lobot loses the ability to speak five years prior. Those events are detailed in Marvel’s Lando comic issue #5.If looks could kill.

If this is your first time watching you have to push past the first 12 minutes. Good luck!I love Gormaanda and all the food focused characters in the saga. Stir, whip, stir, whip, whip, whip, stir!First appearance of Boba Fett.I think it is great that they had flat screens in mind in 1978.This musical number is my favorite part of the show.

That one is a a triangle and leads to a Sith temple.I think this symbol was also seen on Mortis.
1/24/24, Day 266

1/11/24, Day 253
Rebels S3E21
Just months after the release of Rogue One, the death troopers make their appearance in Rebels.Hera refers to General Dodonna’s fleet as the Massassi group. The Massassi are the alien species that originally inhabited Yavin 4, first mentioned in the Tales of the Jedi comic book.

1/6/24, Day 248
Rebels S3E16
Ursa Wren points out that since Sabine did not win the Darksaber in combat, she has no claim to it.Gar Saxon hold the title Hand of the Emperor.
1/5/24, Day 247
Rebels S3E15
Major Mandalorian lore drop – Tarre Vizsla! Fenn Rau Places him about 1000 years before this episode. Sadly, that debunks my theory that the Darksaber was stolen during the early parts of the video game SWTOR.More Sabine artwork.As I rewatch the show, I am beginning to think that Dave Filoni had Sabine’s force journey in mind all along. Kanan says in reference to her, “The force resides in all living things. But you have to be open to it.”

9/25/23, Day 145
Bad Batch, S1E1
From the ashes of the Clone Wars comes the Bad Batch!Depa Billaba’s final instruction to her padawan. Caleb Dume, ” You must run!”Interesting symbolism here. Crosshair is the only one who is keeping his helmet on. I would say this is foreshadowing that he will remain loyal to the empire and the rest of Clone Force 99 will go on the run.The regs are marching through the hallway in formation. In contrast, the Bad Batch is moving in a gaggle.We first saw the training facility when we met Domino Squad as cadets.You can recognize the rebels of Onderon from their insignia. The one in the center has it on his helmet.
Omega’s theme is one of my favorite musical pieces in Star Wars.
9/24/23, Day 144
Tales of the Jedi Episode 6
The Y-Wing behind Rex was the same one that he and Ahsoka used to escape the Tribunal in the last episode of the Clone Wars.I believe the same vehicle is seen during season 1 of the Mandalorian.I don’t think we ever learned a numeric designation for this Inquisitor.

Revenge of the Sith
A move Chopper would approve!The last meeting between master and apprentice before Order 66.Anakin and the 501st first are shown in the same walkway that we saw in the finale of season 5 of Clone Wars where Ahsoka parted ways with the Jedi Order.The droid on the left seems to be sticking Anakin with that sharp needle just for fun.
9/22/23, Day 142
CW S7E12 – The end of a journey and., And what a journey it has been!
Not the droids!You can see the remains of R7-A7, Ahsoka’s astromech going back to season 1.
This final episode of the show contains some of the most stunning images in all of Star Wars. Here are a few.
The odds are seemingly stacked against Ahsoka and Rex.The final moments of the Star Destroyer Tribunal.Desperation!The final image from the show.
Now that we have reached the end of the show, some thoughts:
Over 133 episodes, both George and Dave really built out the Galaxy. The amount of world building, character development, and detail that occurred in the show is insane. Sadly, I don’t think we will see the like again.
That in part is due to the resources that George devoted to the show. Some sources say that each episode of the show cost 1 to 2 million dollars. Rebels in comparison cost. about $500,000 per episode.
I would speculate that George let his staff on the show really explore anything they wanted. Padme had a new outfit in almost every arc she was in. In some scenes, there were dozens of extra characters. This really made the spaces feel lived in and populated.
Also, I don’t think viewers in general have the attention span for a show with 22 episodes a season. I love a short and succinct show with a clear beginning and end that doesn’t overstay its welcome, but I think it is the only thing that we have an appetite for these days.
I will close by saying that Ahsoka is a character so beloved because we had all this time to really know and see her character grow and develop. I don’t think the audience knew it at the beginning, but Ahsoka was really the main character of this show.

9/17/23, Day 137

Rafa recounts a story that involves S1E22. This is the backstory that provides an explanation to why Trace and Rafa are in the situation that Ahsoka finds them in. I would be interested in watching this episode again to see if the details that Rafa provide are the same.

7/26/23, Day 84

7/25/23, Day 83
CW S4E10
Kix has this in aurebesh on his head: A good droid is a dead one. I think it is funny because Kix is a medic.One of the casualties is Waxer. You might remember him from the Ryloth arc. He still has the drawing of the Twi’lek girl Numa on his helmet.Pong Krell digs into his wrestling library and performs a backbreaker on one of the clones.
The Battle of Jedha audio drama
I also finished listening to this today. One of the interesting things is the city of Jedha is presented as a city similar city to Jerusalem, but in the Star Wars Galaxy. Many different force related religions view Jedha as a holy city.
P3-7A is a droid in service of the Church of the Force, the same church that Lor San Tekka belongs to. He has a funny glitch. He can only speak in force related proverbs. He is a walking container of force related fortune cookies. He says things like: “Only the force can judge our worth. We are all but wretches before its glory.”
7/24/23, Day 82

7/21/23, Day 79
CW S4E7
This arc is very much like a war movie.
Many members of the 501st are featured in this episode. I think Pong Krell has a book on effective leadership. That’s sarcasm.
7/20/23, Day 78
CW S4E6
This episode and the last one remind me of the Droids cartoon that aired in the 1980s.
Padme mentions that C-3PO is familiar with a million different planets!
Oz, the great and powerful! Well, kinda. R2 has the remains of the Big Hay-Zu splattered across his torso through most of this episode.This droid reminds me of an ASP-7 from A New Hope.

CW S4E5
Plo’s Bros or the 104th Battalion, The Wolf Pack!The Aleena are an enthusiastic and affectionate people.The Kindalo are a tree like species, similar to the Ents in Lord of the Rings.The mysterious Orphne. I love it when Star Wars delves deep into the fantasy realm.

7/14/23, Day 72
CW S3E22
I thought they were different birds at first, but Ahsoka’s Convorees are prominent in this episode.
More Trandoshan vehicles with scary faces. Sugi and her bounty hunter crew make another appearance.Sugi’s ship has some interesting nose art. It reminds me of a Pokemon. The Aurebesh reads: Nice playing with ya.Trophies in the Trandoshan lair. More trophies.Is that a Mandalorian helmet from Knights of the Old Republic? And a crystal skull?Master and Apprentice.
7/13/23, Day 71
CW S3E21
This begins one of my favorite arcs in the show.
The Trandoshans like to paint menacing faces on their vehicles. In the hunters’ compound, they have many trophies, including many Wookiees.
7/12/23, Day 70
CW S3E20
Ahsoka is not fond of Tarkin. She gives a vicious “side eye.” I have noticed that Ahsoka is animated with so many different expressions.
7/11/23, Day 69
CW S3E19
First, no handrails. Now, no safeties on the doors. So many OSHA violations in Star Wars.I don’t like to theorize much, but I do have a theory that Echo Base on Hoth is named after ARC Trooper Echo.
7/10/23, Day 68
CW S3E18
The Nexus Route is described as a secret hyperspace route. The idea of a secret hyperspace route would be relevant to the plot point of how hyperspace works in the High Republic novels.
The planet Lola Sayu is missing a big chunk.
7/9/23, Day 67
CW S3E17
One of my favorite images from the show.
7/8/23, Day 66
CW S3E16
But he looked so cute and friendly! The Son seems to have a Mandalorian Iron Heart in his armor. The Daughter is always surrounded by light. The Father has wings.
7/7/23, Day 65
CW S3E15
Welcome to Mortis! It’s not really a planet. I am not sure what it is.The foliage distinctly changes from green to red. Perhaps the difference in territory between the Daughter and Son? It is when they cross into the red that they experience danger.Lots of symbols in this episode.
7/6/23, Day 64
CW S3E14
Savage Oppress is so tall he has to bend to enter Dooku’s ship.
Delta Squad! Savage loses a horn at some point during the battle with Kenobi and Skywalker, but it is off camera.

7/3/23, Day 61
CW S3E11
The Banking Clan offers the Republic a loan with an interest rate of 25%! Loan sharks! 🦈
This episode is chock-full of politics – budgets, whipping the votes.
For the statistics nerds. Check out the painting of Alderaan in Bail’s office. If this was the painting “Killik Twilight,” I would freak out!There is a 911 system in the Star Wars Galaxy!The handmaiden, Teckla, is holding Padmé’s hairpiece. I am disappointed to know that this is not Padmé’s real hair.
7/2/23, Day 60
CW S3E10
I would guess this show had a near limitless budget. Looking at the senate scene, there are so many aliens in the background. The amount of detail in this show is staggering.
The Muun Nix Card Is gigantic at over 8 feet tall!CIS Senator Mina Bonteri is from Onderon, my favorite planet. It is my favorite because of all the lore surrounding the planet. You can see a lot of it in The Tales of the Jedi comic by Dark Horse.
7/1/24, Day 59

The insignia of Alderaan is proudly displayed on Bail’s belt buckle.Anyone know the significance of the painting in the lecture hall where Padme will give her speech on Alderaan?The prison facility on Coruscant is just daring you to try and escape.
6/28/23, Day 56
CW S3E6
Anakin, you old smoothie!Look at all that Aurebesh to translate!
Satine has an aquarium. Cadets Soniee, Korkie, Lagos, and Amis. I hope Korkie is a nickname. If he is Satine’s nephew, who is his mother.? Bo-Katan?
6/27/23, Day 55
CW S3E5
Satine refers to the Mandalorians as a “people of tradition.” I would guess she is not referring to the warrior tradition.
There are several holographic busts in Almec’s office. I wonder who they are. The Star Wars Galaxy has laptops! This one looks heavy.The bottle reminds me of a pop bottle (I can say pop because I am in Michigan right now). The Aurebesh on the bottle label reads: AB Arrees Beverage. As we are on Mandalor, The rest of the writing is in Mandalorian script.I noticed Padme’s insignia on two of her outfits in this episode. You can see it on her headpiece.
The Papanoida family is not one to be messed with.

6/21/23, Day 49

Mace does not care for the idiosyncrasies that Anakin has allowed to develop in R2-D2. Mace’s droid R8-B7 has a purple light on his dome.
6/20/23, Day 48
CW S2E20
Though he says the other clones are not his brothers, Boba is unwilling to kill the other clones. One could argue that this is an example of the foundation for his benevolent behavior seen in The Book of Boba Fett.
6/19/23, Day 47
CW S2E19
I do not like it when mom and dad (Padmé and Anakin) argue. 😫
6/18/23, Day 46
CW S2E18

6/16/23, Day 44
CW S2E16
The aesthetic of the stealth ship reminds me of a submarine, down to the sound of a sonar.
When Obi-Wan tells Anakin that, “it is more important to save lives than it is to destroy ships,” it is similar to the idea in The Last Jedi that it is more important to save what you love than fight what you hate.
Similar stealth ships show up later. Grand Moff Tarkin uses one as his personal ship dubbed the Carrion Spike. The ship shows up again in the Poe Dameron comic book.
Did not notice that Admiral Trench has an insignia before.
6/15/23, Day 43
CW S2E15
The book Scum and Villainy is told from the perspective of the Divo family.

6/14/23, Day 42
CW S2E14
Deputy minister Jerec is not the first Jerec we have seen in Star Wars.
Satine and Obi-Wan set up a secret meeting at Monument Plaza. There we see Umate for the first time visually represented in Star Wars.

CW S2E12
The narrator says the Council of Neutral Systems consists of over 1500 systems. According to the website Star Wars Galaxy Map there are 2200 named planets (Legends and Canon). The Star Wars Galaxy is much bigger than I originally thought.
I always had a problem with Prime Minister Almec saying that Jango Fett was not a Mandalorian. With the added context that the show The Mandalorian provides, some native Mandalorians are prejudice against foundlings.
Pre Vizsla provides the initial history of the Darksaber. He says the Darksaber was retrieved from the Jedi Temple by his ancestors during the fall of the Old Republic. I would like to think that ancestor was Shae Vizla (they could have changed the spelling of the name over 3000 years) during the attack on the Jedi Temple. See the video below.
6/11/23 – Day 39
CW S2E11
Have a nice day! The arms dealer, Car Affa, has a smiley face on his shoulder.

The Season 1 finale introduced Cad Bane, and he made a bloody splash with a high body count. He snaps a senate guard’s neck. He drops a grenade into a room of other senate guards. He shoots a senator in the back.
I just love the weird aliens like the Patrolian, Robonino.
5/30/23 -Day 27
CW S1E21
I was super confused by this. During the episode, they refer to the leader of the droid army on Ryloth as both Wat Tambor and Emir Tambor. “Emir,” I learned, is a title, not another person.
The AT-RTs are introduced. They move fast!Another example of Mace Windu using his shatterpoint ability to break the glass to rescue the driver of the AT-TE.
5/29/23 – Day 26
CW S1E20
This episode focuses on Waxer and Boil of Ghost Company of the 212th Attack Battalion.

The Malevolence is so large it has several trains to move passengers from bow to stern quickly. You can hear the warning to “mind the gap.” Anakin and Padmé use one of the tunnels to sneak in some private time. 😘

Young Jedi Adventures, Episode 2
The Phantom Menace
There are things I do not remember. Like, extra scenes in the podrace. Is there a special edtion I was not aware of?
The CGI is surprisingly good. Jarjar, Sebulba, and Watto look great! Almost all of Naboo looks amazing. The scenes on the fields are the ones where the CGI is noticeable.
Who was braiding Padmé’s hair? Surely, there were bigger priorities than looking THAT good. 😍 (Discovered on day 41, after reading Queen’s Peril, that the handmaindens quickly braided Padmé’s hair).
