1,938. Comparing and Contrasting Rise of Skywalker Footage Oct 24, 2019

Show notes

Now that we have the Celebration teaser, the D23 special look, and the final trailer, I thought it would be fun to look at what we've seen so far of The Rise of Skywalker, compare and contrast elements of the three with each other, and understand just how *little* of the movie we've actually seen. Punch it!

1,937. 7 Most Shocking Moments From The Rise of Skywalker Trailer Oct 23, 2019

Show notes

I think you and I will be in agreement about the seven I've chosen for this episode - and about why I chose to exclude a certain moment that certainly would have qualified otherwise. Where I think you and I might disagree is about the order in which I've placed them, and I'd love to hear how you'd reorder them and why. Punch it!

1,936. The Rise of Skywalker's Final Trailer (Extended Episode!) Oct 22, 2019

Show notes

Rey and Ben destroying the Vader mask pedestal? A "one last look" line from Threepio? Wet Kylo? The Ghost? A physical Palpatine? HORSES RUNNING ON TOP OF A STAR DESTROYER??? The final trailer of The Rise of Skywalker has done what it was supposed to do - provide thrills and surprises, deepening the mystery while packing an emotional wallop. Punch it!

1,935. Live Fire (Resistance Briefing, Season 2, Episode 3) Oct 21, 2019

Show notes

A former Imperial TIE pilot explains why he thinks the Empire lost the war to the Rebellion, and it also illustrates the difference between the First Order and the way Jarek Yeager trains the Aces in "Live Fire," episode 3 from season 2 of Star Wars Resistance. Punch it!

1,934. "Be More Leia" Book Review Oct 20, 2019

Show notes

Having read "Be More Lando" for yesterday's episode, I had a better idea of what to expect in DK's "Be More Leia" by Christian Blauvelt (and thanks again to DK for sending me review copies of both). The Leia book takes full advantage of the fact that she appears in two more movies than Lando, and has a lot more dialogue to boot - but it also draws inspiration from the Prequels, Sequels, and Rogue One as well. Punch it!

1,933. "Be More Lando" Book Review Oct 19, 2019

Show notes

I was very pleasantly surprised by "Be More Lando" by Christian Blauvert from DK Publishing. I must have been expecting something "fluffier" - and there's a place for that, to be sure! - but it turned out to be an honest-to-goodness high-level business success book that draws its lessons from every era of the movie franchise. Punch it!

1,932. Star Wars News Roundup: TROS, Cassian Andor, and More Oct 18, 2019

Show notes

All the news that fits in one episode! It's another of our "potpourri" shows where we cover bits of Star Wars news that can't take up a whole episode by themselves. Today: Tony Gilroy joins the Cassian Andor series; Daisy Ridley talks about "Reylo" and The Rise of Skywalker; why Ridley thought the Rey's parents question was answered in The Force Awakens; and much more. Punch it!

1,931. The Nature of Hope in The Force Awakens Oct 17, 2019

Show notes

We're moving on to the sequel trilogy as we continue the Hyperspacing Hope series! A lot of commentary exists (and I'm among them) about how The Force Awakens mirrors A New Hope in its story beats. But in fact, TFA is doing the work of the entire prequel trilogy as well as Episode IV. And that plays a strong part in the way that hope is expressed by old friends and new ones in Episode VII. Punch it!

1,930. A Quick Salvage Run (Resistance Briefing, Season 2, Episode 2) Oct 16, 2019

Show notes

"A Quick Salvage Run"? If only it were that simple. In our Resistance Briefing for Season 2, Episode 2, we're covering the biggest moments from the show, including surprise survivors of the Hosnian Cataclysm and what's left at D'Qar after the opening of The Last Jedi. Punch it!

1,929. The Rise of Skywalker Trailer: If Not Now, When? Oct 15, 2019

Show notes

Well, Lucasfilm broke with a three-in-a-row precedent and did NOT reveal the last trailer for The Rise of Skywalker during Monday Night Football last night. But what about John Boyega's agent saying it was (brace yourself) confirmed? Well, we'll dig into that, and reset the guessing game of when it will finally happen. Punch it!
