End Credits #443 - May 27, 2026 (Star Wars: The Mandalorian And Grogu)

This week on End Credits, for the first time in a while, the Force is with us! If you haven't guessed already, we will be reviewing the 13th entry in the sci-fi adventure franchise, Star Wars: The Mandalorian and Grogu, which you can now see in a theatre near you. And if we're watching a new Star Wars movie, then what better time is there to hand out The Star Wars Awards?! This Wednesday, May 27, at 3 pm, Adam A. Donaldson and Candice Lepage will discuss: The Star Wars Awards. How can we celebrate the return of Star Wars to theatres everywhere? we could do a ranking of all 12 previous movies in the franchise, but that seems kind of simple, and we have to recognize that Star Wars isn't just a movie series, it's a cultural touchstone. So to mark this week's new release we will hand out the first annual (?) Star Wars Awards in five different categories, from Best Lightsaber Fight to Star Wars MVP! REVIEW: Star Wars: The Mandalorian And Grogu (2026). It's been seven years since we last saw a new Star Wars movie in theatres, and this one is about a masked bounty hunter and his little buddy. Based on the Disney+ series, The Mandalorian and Grogu follows the continuing adventures of Din Djarin and his sidekick sometimes known as "Baby Yoda" as they chase warlords, gangsters and sometimes fellow bounty hunters across a galaxy far, far away, but does this first big screen outing for the franchise re-establish Star Wars former box office and creative glory? End Credits is on CFRU 93.3 fm and cfru.ca Wednesday at 3 pm.
