Author: Sam Marchiony

Join us on a journey as we take the hyperspace lanes out of a galaxy far, far away and into other movies, finding all the ways George Lucas' flagship franchise surrounds us, binds us, and penetrates us.

6 Degrees of Star Wars dips its toe into the MCU with a look at what should have been a fun project for Nia DaCosta, Brie Larson, Teyonah Parris, and Iman Vellani, but instead got mired up in studio interference, misogyny, racism, Hollywood guild strikes, and overall exhaustion.
