If you love Star Wars and are a total coffee addict, boy, do we have a thread for you. Twitter user @ViWiWrites blessed the site yesterday with a pretty comprehensive thread that pairs your favorite sci-fi heroes with what she believes to be their preferred method of making and drinking coffee. It may not be backed by George Lucas, but we have to say these tweets strike us as pretty damn accurate.

This "Dad and the dog" dank meme combines two of our favorite things: dads and doggos. The meme exploits the idea that dads are truly marshmallows under their tough exteriors. The first instance of the meme featured Dwayne "The Rock" Johnson with a cute dog, paired with a joke about a dad's hesitance about getting a dog, and his eventual love for the damn critter. The memes have been popping off since early this week, and it's easy to see why.
Illustrator Brian Kesinger may have made a name for himself with his illustration work at Walt Disney Studios, but it's his work outside of the movie business that really gets fans going. His steampunk art has been his most successful, featuring whimsical cephalopods and frilly fashions - but our favorite series of his combines the Star Wars universe with Calvin and Hobbes.
Valentine's Day is coming up, which means it's time to start planning your grand gesture of love to your sweetheart. And what better way to show your affection than combining Star Wars with the traditional cheesy Valentine's Day card? We guarantee your special someone will get a kick out these trashy cards.
Star Wars fans were overjoyed last night after being treated to the first Solo trailer during the Super Bowl - and today we've got a trailer. The clip features some familiar faces: Donald Glover as Lando Calrissian, Woody Harrelson as ringleader Beckett, and Emilia Clarke as Qi'ra, another part of their eventual crew. Alden Ehrenreich plays the title role of our favorite "Nerf herder," and in the Super Bowl spot you can almost picture his voice leaving Harrison Ford's mouth. Honestly, that's where the resemblance stops.
Fans seem a bit more excited about Glover's Lando - the trailer features him oozing Lando goodness, dressed in rich furs and cracking smug smiles. On this end, we're stoked to finally see a Han/Chewie meet-cute and exactly how Han became the most prolific smuggler in the galaxy. Just have to wait until Labor Day.
Steven Lear has been creating awesome album cover mashups for years - but most of his work features the Star Wars universe. He painstakingly recreates classic (and some more obscure) album art to include our favorite fandom characters. The results are often funny, and sometimes just beautiful. We've included a selection of our personal favorites, but there's much more to admire on Lear's Instagram.
Users shared the actors that they thought were perfect for the role that they played, we gathered up some of the best and added some of the best scenes from those roles.
