Skywalking Through Neverland

After months of planning, our LiningUp.net Mandalorian and Grogu Charity Kick-Off Bash brought our Star Wars community together for one unforgettable day at Scum & Villainy Cantina! The goal - to raise $2,500 for Starlight Children’s Foundation, helping kids in need. Did we do it?? With trivia, charity raffles, a silent auction, and games like Force Feud and Draw Wars, our friends and fans showed up in full force to support the Starlight Children's Foundation and LiningUp.net. From tauntaun escorts and Mandalorian cosplayers to an animatronic Grogu and incredible Star Wars prizes, the event was packed with fun, fandom, and fundraising. Huge thanks to everyone who contributed, participated, and made this event such a success. In this episode we share pictures and video on the event, along with our colorful commentary. And this is just the beginning—join us and LiningUp.net on May 19th through 21st as we line up for The Mandalorian and Grogu at the TCL Chinese Theatre, f...

We go behind the scenes (spoiler-free!) of Maul: Shadow Lord with voice actors Sam Witwer (Darth Maul) and Gideon Adlon (Devon) , along with executive producers Athena Yvette Portillo and Matt Michnovetz ( writer), and supervising director Brad Rau as they break down how this bold new Star Wars series came together.  Sam Witwer get candid about evolving Darth Maul, while Gideon Adlon shares what it’s like stepping into Star Wars for (almost) the first time. Plus, the creative team dives into the story, themes, and the painterly, cinematic animation style that sets this series apart. Maul: Shadow Lord premieres April 6 with two episodes.

On this daring episode, we break down DAREDEVIL: BORN AGAIN Season 2, starting with a quick refresher on Season 1—because let’s face it, these Marvel Disney+ shows can be dense. We revisit where the key characters left off and where they stand as this new season begins. From there, we share a spoiler-free review of the full season, focusing on the character dynamics that drive the story—from Matt and Karen’s renewed partnership to the unsettling relationships within Fisk’s inner circle. We dig into Buck’s influence over the young and impressionable Daniel, and the tension Bullseye brings into the mix. There are some surprising parallels to Star Wars, so listen in for those nuggets! This season leans heavily into moral complexity, challenging both its characters and the audience with questions about loyalty, power, and whether the ends can ever justify the means. We also cover the structure, performances, and standout moments, and even connect the dots to SPIDER-MAN: BRAND NEW DAY ...

March is here, which means The Mandalorian and Grogu is getting closer to its big May 22nd release! In this episode, we’re joined by Peter Genovese from LiningUp.net for some major reveals you won’t want to miss. The tradition of fans lining up for a new Star Wars film stretches back decades. In 1980, Terri Hardin camped outside the Egyptian Theatre for The Empire Strikes Back . The practice grew even bigger during the prequel era and continued through 2015’s Star Wars: The Force Awakens and the sequel trilogy. Now, as The Mandalorian and Grogu prepares to hit theaters, that fan tradition is about to ignite once again. Peter shares the history behind LiningUp.net and reveals the official start date for fans ready to line up and celebrate the next chapter of the saga.
