After last week's behemoth and incredibly impressive meta, Will's back with something much more accessible.
Puzzle #97: First Place
The answer to this week's meta is a character from a famous movie franchise who could be a sixth theme entry.
As usual, no Googling here.
The deadline for this puzzle is 9:00am eastern time on Sunday, February 25, 2024.

Nice one! John Hurt (the musician, not the actor) would approve.

I'll admit I actually did an internet search for famous movie franchises and couldn't believe that I didn't think of it on my own. It's been too long since I've seen the movies.

Check out "The MOAT MEOW Mashup Pack"
here . US$10 for 14 metas that don't always abide by the "rules" of the game: asymmetry, 2-letter words, uncrossed letters, who knows. And this time there's a mega-meta!
