Here is the size of every single vehicle in the Star Wars trilogy

Every original Star Wars trilogy vehicle to scale
Ever wondered about the size of a Sentinel-Class Landing Craft relative to the Millennium Falcon? If the answer is yes, you’re in luck.

Courtesy of Sploid’s All the Star Wars Vehicles Sized, you can now see how every transport, speeder, and battle station from the first three Star Wars films stacks up. From the tiny Ewok Glider to the massive, planet-incinerating Death Star, this video leaves no stone unturned.

Star Wars superfans will recognize the background music as the tune that was playing in the famous Mos Eisley cantina scene (#HanShotFirst), and as we bop away, the vehicles scroll by and we get a nostalgia-laden look at everything from the original trilogy. In total, 48 spaceships, animals, and land vehicles were rendered, the largest being the Death Star I & II, the Super Star Destroyer, and the Star Destroyer respectively.

We’ll have to wait and see how the vehicles from Star Wars: The Force Awakens measure up and if anything from the new film can compete with the Death Star in terms of size, but either way, this is seriously fun/cool.

Videos like this are a perfect example of why the Star Wars fictional universe has such staying power. Fans of the films are so dedicated and passionate that they’re always looking for new ways to interact with the story and finding what others have missed.

The video’s illustrations come courtesy of Scott Park, and you can check out more of his work here.

Though the days are starting to drag as we all wait for Star Wars: Episode VII — The Force Awakens, at least we have awesome stuff like this to keep us occupied until December 18, 2015.

May the force be with you.

An old man talks in Dune: Part Two.

The great thing about a hit movie is that you tend to find out things during interviews, premieres, and press conferences that would have never surfaced otherwise. Dune: Part Two is one such movie. In the lead-up to the movie's blockbuster opening weekend, we've discovered Josh Brolin's hidden talents as a poet and photographer, Javier Bardem's dedication to his children, Zendaya's love for the sci-fi classic Metropolis, and Austin Butler's appreciation for The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly.

The most recent revelation, however, tops all of those. In an interview with Vanity Fair, Christopher Walken, who plays Shaddam IV, the film's fearsome Emperor, explains why he came out of a four-year break from acting in films and joined Dune: Part Two. One reason was due to his admiration for the first film, which cemented Denis Villeneuve's status as one of the best sci-fi directors ever, and his appreciation of the sequel's impressive cast, which also includes Florence Pugh, Rebecca Ferguson, and Dave Bautista.

Star Wars: The Clone Wars

Star Wars fans don't get along. The fandom has been called toxic and divided, and many times, it's lived up to that stereotype.

But I, for one, count the diversity of the fanbase as a positive. It's what's led to the wide range of stories, genres, and media types over the years, each generating its own small base of fans. More broadly, these fanbases are created based on your generation and what part of the series you gravitated to first for whatever reason. I hope you'll be able to find yourself among at least one of these waves of Star Wars fans and start to see that there's enough room at the table for us all.
