Star Wars: Forces of Destiny - Run Rey Run

The exact timing of “Run Rey Run” is a little unclear, but it does take place sometime before the events of The Force Awakens. We get another appearance by Teedo, a common antagonist for Rey (Daisy Ridley) in these shorts, who attempts to steal scavenged items from the derelict Star Destroyer from Rey only succeeding in bringing an entire section on the ship down on their heads. Rey saves both the tech and her adversary who reluctantly watches Rey speed away with the goods.

Chaos Walking

Adapted from the first book of a sci-fi trilogy, Chaos Walking offers a dystopian future on an alien world where human settlers deal with an oddity of the planet as men’s thoughts are broadcast allowing others to hear, and even at time see, them. Our two main characters are the local screw-up Todd Hewitt (Tom Holland) and newly-arrived colonist from space Viola (Daisy Ridley) who is notably taken aback by the unexpected phenomena and whose appearance throws the town into chaos and forces hidden truths about both the town and world Todd has grown up on to be explored.

The Bubble

While I believe it’s possible to make a satire about the struggles of filmmaking during the pandemic, 2022’s The Bubble is not that film. Writer/director Judd Apatow‘s lazy comedy goes for cheap jokes earning few laughs. The premise is simple enough, the cast (Karen Gillan, Pedro Pascal, Leslie Mann, David Duchovny, Keegan-Michael Key, and Guz Khan) of one of the world’s biggest action franchises agree to quarantine in an English hotel and make the next film in the franchise while interacting with the film’s crew, the TikTok guest-star (Iris Apatow), hotel staff, and COVID security officer (Harry Trevaldwyn).

Star Wars: Forces of Destiny - BB-8 Bandits

Set during The Force Awakens and after the previous short, “BB-8 Bandits” gives us the return of the scavenger Teedo and his associate attempting to reacquire the droid Rey (Daisy Ridley) saved from him in the film. Rey rescues the droid again, this time making use of her new friend the nightwachter worm to prevent Teedo from coming after them again. Not quite as strong as the first short, but it does build upon what it introduced and produce some fun moments for Star Wars fans.
