In the last few years, the Star Wars brand has exploded into something that few fans ever dreamed that it would become. What once seemed dormant, is now spewing out new properties and content, left right and centre. While there is certainly an argument to be made in regards to how much of this is necessary and the quality throughout, the sheer amount of it has led to some truly memorable moments that fans can be thankful for.
However, that’s just the problem. There’re so many of them that people are going to have to work hard to be properly caught up. Not only do you have myriad new films to watch, but there are TV shows, games and even new books to throw yourself into.
The New Shows
Unlike a film, which tends to last around two hours, TV shows can go on for a very long time. This is great news if you’re a Star Wars fan who enjoys all of this new content, but it also makes the process of watching it one that requires a serious time investment. Fortunately, you have multiple means of technology that can help you make this a more feasible demand, the most prominent of which might be your mobile phone.
Not only can you watch these shows on your phone if you have the relevant app, which might be especially useful if you find yourself out and about, but it also means you can help the time pass during the slower moments of the shows by exercising what your phone allows for you. Playing the online pokies, or simply browsing social media can provide this kind of relief.
The Games
It might be that you don’t consider yourself much of a gamer, but the prospect of enjoying more Star Wars content through these games might be exactly what you’re looking for. Therefore, maybe it’s time to sit down and enjoy them. You have any number of directions to go here – perhaps a home console or a gaming PC? If this is a fresh investment that you’re serious about, it’s important that you think about it in regards to the future and the best direction to take for yourself personally.
For example, if you do go for a gaming console, consider the other games that are coming out on that platform in the future to influence your decision.
The Movies
Star Wars is a franchise that is best known for hitting the big screen, so you might well have been front-and-centre when all of the recent movies were hitting the cinemas. However, with a recent lull in favour of the smaller screen, you might have found fewer opportunities to enjoy them. This doesn’t have to be the case, and you can hold your own marathons of these films that can be enjoyed either by yourself, or with your like-minded friends.
In fact, you might find that due to the unorthodox release nature of the films, watching them in a new order (perhaps chronological) might provide you with some new insight into the fictional world).
