Star Wars, Star Wars, Star Wars, also Star Wars. So, what the hey, I thought I’d jump on the hype and do a little link list of my pieces on the franchise over the years.

Star Wars and the 4 Ways Science Fiction handles race.

Star Wars’ Original Scum-Caked Brilliance.

The Star Wars reboot and how Hollywood sci-fi doesn’t care about the future.

Slave Leia as uneasy sexual fantasy (about Han Solo)

Star Wars and a universe without women.

Star Wars and a universe with boring gender roles (or, let Octavia Butler write Star Wars)

Lupita Nyong’o, Star Wars, and keeping black actors off-screen

And, finally, why the Force Awakens will probably suck.
