Return Of The Jedi Fun Facts

Originally, Yoda was not meant to appear in Return of the Jedi, but George Lucas included him to confirm that Darth Vader was truly Luke's father due to audiences not believing it from The Empire Strikes Back.

The character of Jabba the Hutt required a team of puppeteers to operate, with three people inside the costume and several others controlling additional elements like eyes and facial expressions.

The Super Mario Galaxy Movie

Watched this in theaters. Was a fun popcorn movie. I didn't like it as much as the first movie though. The nostalgia moments are a lot of fun for me, but the first movie had a ton of those too.

Alita: Battle Angel

I need to rewatch this and see if it moves from a like to a favorite for me. I forget about it, see it mentioned, and remember that it was way better than I thought it was going to be. This is a great one to watch if you haven't yet.

Project Hail Mary (Movie)

Finally got to see this in theaters - it's a lovely movie. One of the higher quality family-friendly sci fi movies in a LONG time. The part I liked least about the book was the humor - movie was the same. Which speaks to how good the adaptation was.
