The news coverage in the run up to episode seven, as well as the post release coverage has been really excellent. A couple examples stuck out though and I wanted to share them.
The first was this funny Ken Burns style documentary put out by the Washington Post about the Galactic Civil war made me giggle. It even has experts
The second was an opinion piece by Charlie Jane Anders on Io9 about criticism of Rey being a Mary Sue, which is an autobiographical character in fan fiction.
Digging Deeper, a Youtube channel, posted a fascinating analysis of the Jurassic Park series, using the themes from the movies to discuss major trends that were affecting the film industry when each of these films was released.
I am also a big fan of zombie media, and this video on MSN caught my attention as well.
