There weren’t any new movies for Star Wars in 2018, but Solo did have a home release, and Star Wars Resistance hit the small screen for Disney’s next animated series. There were also the announcements of three new Star Wars series coming to Disney+ next year with The Clone Wars’ seventh season, The Mandalorian and the untitled Cassian Andor series.
But there were some rough spots for the fandom with the harassment of Kelly Marie Tran.
However, as the Fandom 250 spot points out, there is so much good that Star Wars fans do with charities being a large focus of many of the fan groups. There’s no denying how much good Star Wars fan do for others, even if there are a few blemishes.
You can’t deny Black Panther at the top spot for movies. It was a juggernaut for Marvel (and in the end Disney, which came in spot No 37 overall and No. 2 in brands in the Fandom 250). Black Panther is one of the top grossing movie of all- time, generating more than $1.3 million worldwide.
Granted it’s still behind Star Wars: The Force Awakens – but that was in 2017.
Solo’s Donald Glover also came in at 148th overall and 16th in celebrities.
But 2019 is definitely poised to be a big one for Star Wars.
