Nicole Bilyak | Friday, September 30, 2022

In 2016, Lucasfilm released the first of the “Star Wars” spin-off films, “Rogue One: A Star Wars Story.” The film was a massive success and provided a new perspective on the Rebel Alliance.

2022: The year of the prequel

Matheus Herndl | Tuesday, September 13, 2022

The trend of endless movie sequels is by no means a recent one. Ever since the 70s and the birth of summer blockbuster franchises like Jaws or Star Wars, the sequel has been a staple in yearly releases to the joy of some fans and the detriment of others. Indeed, the market dominance of big-budget

Will ‘The Book of Boba Fett’ be the savior of ‘Star Wars’?

Nicole Bilyak | Friday, February 11, 2022

A while back, I reviewed “Star Wars: Visions” and shared I was deeply underwhelmed with the cluttered stories that the show was attempting to tell. I was also not a fan of the anime style. When I heard there was going to be a show about Boba Fett on Disney Plus, I was skeptical, to

Does ‘Visions’ deserve the ‘Star Wars’ name?

Nicole Bilyak | Tuesday, October 5, 2021

“Star Wars” is the most well-known space opera series that science fiction and fantasy fans can think of. With its vast universe, lovable characters and unique concept, it is no surprise that Lucasfilm, the creator of the series, has created such an escape from the realities of life.  When Lucasfilm moved many of the “Star

‘WandaVision’ is a hard lesson in fan theories

Aidan O'Malley | Wednesday, March 10, 2021

(Warning: The following article contains spoilers for “WandaVision.” Read Scene’s spoiler-free review here). Watching the season finale to “WandaVision,” I couldn’t help but smile. I just knew it was going to piss people off! I don’t like being this person. I don’t! And chide as I might, you’re allowed to be disappointed. But if my

Power ranking my childhood Halloween costumes

Aidan O'Malley | Thursday, October 15, 2020

The leaves are turning, the temperature is dropping and with every passing day, we lose a few more seconds of sunlight. You know what that means: it’s October! And if it’s October, then you know what that means: it’s Halloween! Objectively the second-best holiday (behind only Christmas and just ahead of St. Patrick’s Day), Halloween

We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department We asked you to Ask The Observer Sports Department and you responded with the request: “Northwestern @ Notre Dame 2014 Football Breakdown”. That game was a heartbreaking loss for a Notre Dame team that had started 6-0 before stumbling down the stretch to a 7-5 record. A bowl game win over LSU salvaged some optimism for the program’s future, but that loss to Northwestern was a shocking result that contributed to one of the more appalling stretches of Irish football in the Brian Kelly era.

A glance at the ballot suggests that this year’s candidates all appear to be human and pro-democracy. This observation may seem obvious or nonsensical, but a look back at the history of SBP elections shows that pro-democracy ideals or even personhood are not characteristic of all candidates.
