Happy May 4th to all the Sixers fans who double as Star Wars fans! The legendary fantasy saga has provided many with a respite from this global pandemic, whether it be streaming the Mandalorian on Disney+ or revisiting the classic films.

Star Wars is, in many ways, the epitome of popcorn entertainment. It is equal parts thrilling and engaging, with a massive world, complex characters, and the biggest special effects budget this side of Marvel. Even if the latest film installment was a disappointment — …woof — there’s still plenty to love within the world of Jedis and Siths.
