STAR WARS: THE RISE OF SKYWALKER Comic Shows the Force Ghost Army Moment We Never Got in the Movie — GeekTyrant
For years, Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker fans have debated what could've made that climactic final battle hit harder. Now, thanks to the final issue of Marvel Comics' adaptation of the film, we finally get to see a powerful scene that was cut from the film… Rey standing side by side with an army of Jedi Force Ghosts. The moment in the movie where Rey declares herself 'all the Jedi'? It hits differently when you can actually see those Jedi with her. Back in 2019, the film ended with Rey facing off against Emperor Palpatine, bolstered only by the voices of Jedi from the past including Yoda, Obi-Wan, Mace Windu, Ahsoka Tano, and more. And while hearing those familiar voices gave longtime fans a chill, the comic takes it one step further. Writer Jody Houser and artist Will Sliney go all in, putting those Jedi right there with Rey, fully visible as a Force Ghost army. The scene delivers a visual representation of generations of Jedi standing behind the young Jedi warrior. This is a moment Lucasfilm once considered including in the film, but for a variety of reasons, it never made it to screen. Interestingly, its omission may have benefitted other Star Wars stories down the road. Seeing Qui-Gon Jinn (Liam Neeson) return in Obi-Wan Kenobi , or Anakin Skywalker ( Hayden Christensen ) appear as a Force Ghost in Ahsoka , likely wouldn't have had the same weight if they'd already popped up alongside Rey. Chris Terrio, who co-wrote the film with J.J. Abrams, once touched on this exact subject. Regarding the film's ending, he said: 'We absolutely discussed who would be there at the end. It's not as though those Force ghosts will never appear to Rey now that she really is the first of the new Jedi. 'I think she has all of those Jedi behind her. J.J. was pretty clear about the idea that he didn't want to take away from the moment of Leia finally appearing as a Force ghost and the twins finally being together.' In regard to that final scene on Tatooine, he added: 'This might be in the novelization, but we talked a lot about how Leia lost her home. Alderaan is gone. So, she could never take Luke to see where she grew up as a princess, but Luke could've taken Leia to see where he grew up as a farmer. 'But, the twins never got to Tatooine together (to visit Luke's childhood farm). So, the idea of seeing the twins together after the sabers are laid to rest felt like it was something that was very moving to me and J.J.' That emotional thread certainly had merit. But from a fan perspective, seeing Rey, flanked by the spirits of Obi-Wan, Aayla Secura, Kanan Jarrus, Mace Windu, Yoda, and more, standing against Palpatine, is the kind of Star Wars moment fans live for. So while The Rise of Skywalker might never get a "special edition" to bring this to screen, the comic book fills in the gap. At least we get to see it visually brought to life in comic book art form. 'THE LAST HOPE OF THE RESISTANCE! REY races to confront PALPATINE, but can she stop him before the FINAL ORDER devastates the galaxy? Hope comes from unexpected places as the RESISTANCE makes its last stand!'

You Can't Give Teslas Away These Days, but Tesla's Actually Trying To
Free car giveaways are typically associated with TV game shows, radio sweepstakes, or halftime contests, but right now there's one being hosted directly by an automaker. By participating in Tesla's 'TeslaVision' contest, you could score a brand-new Model Y and a private tour of the Texas Gigafactory. In 2017, Tesla held 'Project Loveday,' a video contest named after a 10-year-old fan of the brand who wrote a letter to CEO Elon Musk suggesting that customers submit promotional video clips to make up for the company's lack of traditional advertising. That contest received thousands of submissions and was eventually won by none other than YouTube superstar Marques Brownlee. The TeslaVision Contest Now, Tesla is holding the TeslaVision contest as a follow-up to Project Loveday. According to the company, it's here 'to commemorate launching deliveries of New Model Y in all continents where we operate.' That new Model Y is the so-called Juniper version, which arrived earlier this year sporting hardware updates, a remodeled interior, and a Cybertruck-esque headlight bar. So, the TeslaVision contest—it is, in Tesla's words, 'a global celebration and showcase of the owners and fans who have always recognized the true value and impact of our products.' To participate, submit a video no longer than 90 seconds 'showing how Tesla vehicles give you more in your life—more freedom, more safety, more fun, more convenience.' That video must then be posted to YouTube and shared on X and Instagram with Tesla's accounts tagged, and then those links uploaded in the contest submission form on Tesla's site. In addition to the Model Y winner, two runners-up will get an all-expenses-paid private tour of the Gigafactory outside of Austin, Texas, which produces some Model Ys and every Cybertruck. We Have Some Thoughts Acclaimed as America's best-selling EV, one might imagine that the Model Y is in such high demand that it wouldn't be so available as to be offered up as a giveaway. Evidently, however, Tesla has enough idle inventory to make one the grand prize in the TeslaVision contest. The EV innovator has faced harsh backlash due to CEO Musk's controversial involvement in Donald Trump's presidential administration. It's possible that the TeslaVision contest is being held to gather and then promote positive takes from Tesla fans who remain unbothered by Musk's drastic social impact, and are uninterested in the numerous other EVs from brands that don't have the contentious symbolism that Tesla now does, in addition to potentially longer range, faster charging, better quality, greater comfort, prettier styling, or higher performance. To wit, we question how a video could be created under Tesla's suggested parameters. Regarding 'freedom,' the advantage Tesla once held by keeping its widespread Supercharger network exclusive to its own cars is slipping away as other EVs gain access, allowing rivals to also enjoy road trip ease. Regarding safety, the 2025 Model Y scores the highest five-star overall safety rating from NHTSA, as a plethora of other EVs do, but it no longer qualifies for IIHS Top Safety Pick as it did in years past. Furthermore, how Tesla's flagship Full Self-Driving (FSD) software has a propensity to make errors such as veering across a solid double yellow line into the oncoming lane of traffic makes safety seem tenuous at best. About fun, in our testing and assessments we've found Tesla vehicles don't have much to offer beyond the common EV attribute of quick straight-line acceleration, while rivals have superior chassis and handling refinement. To convenience, the spacious cabin, frunk and sub-trunk, and minimalistic layout found in Tesla vehicles contribute to that measure. However, the experience with MotorTrend 's 2023 Model Y long-term review car has often proved incredibly frustrating, such as the finicky flush-mounted exterior door handles, which often do nothing because the car doesn't recognize its smartphone app-based key, or how the cruise control can deactivate when using the windshield washers, or how, for now, using an adapter is necessary to charge on public Level 2 plugs. Hmm, maybe we wouldn't win this contest... positive thoughts! We should also point out the incongruity between asking fans and owners—many of whom likely already own a Model Y, given its ubiquity—to get excited about winning another one. If you're super excited about Tesla and want to show the company just how great you think it is and win a Model Y, you can submit your video clip to the TeslaVision contest website. Act soon, since the contest closes on July 17, 2025 or when 10,000 entries are received, whichever comes first.

'F1' Haptic Movie Trailer Uses iPhone Vibrations to Mimic Racing Action
The latest trailer for F1: The Movie uses an iPhone's vibrate feature to bring physicality to the viewing experience. Any iPhone with iOS 18.4 or newer can feel, as well as view, the trailer. F1: The Movie stars Brad Pitt and Damson Idris as Formula 1 drivers and includes Lewis Hamilton among the producers. Brad Pitt, oldest F1 driver ever, gets strapped into the car. My phone buzzes like I'm a PR person in crisis management whose client just publicly announced they hate puppies. The cars take the track, spitting fire. Everything vibrates, with additional pulsations at each pop of flame. Pitt slides into the pit box (Pitt box?). The phone judders like a panic stop with ABS. Disappointingly, nothing vibrates during the laundromat scene, clear proof that nobody in Hollywood knows how out of balance the dryers are in a place where burned-out bachelor F1 racers do their once-a-year duvet cover cleanup. Car hits wall. Buzz. Car runs down the straight. Buzz. In-car shots. Buzz. My hand starts to go numb. We'll give Apple credit for the imaginative approach to its latest trailer for F1: The Movie. It's long been a challenge in any motorsports-themed entertainment to translate the violence and thrill of high-speed track action, and at least this haptic-feedback experiment is making an effort. However, you'll need an iPhone with iOS 18.4 or newer to actually experience the haptic trailer. The trailer uses the same motors that make your phone vibrate for a text message or incoming phone call but matches them up with key action points in the video to add more drama to the revving engines and splintering carbon-fiber crashes. It makes race cars feel more like a "Your table is ready" restaurant pager at a Panera Bread than a 200-mph Formula 1 car, but it was mildly entertaining. It would probably really delight a cat or a baby, but we didn't have one handy during our test-watch. F1: The Movie stars Brad Pitt as retired driver Sonny Hayes, who returns to the cockpit as a mentor to rookie Joshua "Noah" Pearce (Damson Idris). F1 comes to theaters in the U.S. on June 27. Most of the Formula 1 paddock has already seen the film and seems in agreement that the driving shots are great, and the rest is Hollywood. Buzz. Elana Scherr Senior Editor, Features Like a sleeper agent activated late in the game, Elana Scherr didn't know her calling at a young age. Like many girls, she planned to be a vet-astronaut-artist, and came closest to that last one by attending UCLA art school. She painted images of cars, but did not own one. Elana reluctantly got a driver's license at age 21 and discovered that she not only loved cars and wanted to drive them, but that other people loved cars and wanted to read about them, which meant somebody had to write about them. Since receiving activation codes, Elana has written for numerous car magazines and websites, covering classics, car culture, technology, motorsports, and new-car reviews. In 2020, she received a Best Feature award from the Motor Press Guild for the C/D story "A Drive through Classic Americana in a Polestar 2." In 2023, her Car and Driver feature story "In Washington, D.C.'s Secret Carpool Cabal, It's a Daily Slug Fest" was awarded 1st place in the 16th Annual National Arts & Entertainment Journalism Awards by the Los Angeles Press Club.
