1,898: Age of Resistance: General Hux's Story Sep 14, 2019

Show notes

Over the course of the next few weekends, we're going to take a look at all of the "Age of Resistance" comics from Marvel, to see what they might reveal to us (or tease us about!) when it comes to The Rise of Skywalker's release in December. On today's show, we're going to learn about General Hux's story... Punch it!

1,897: The State of the First Order in "Black Spire" Sep 13, 2019

Show notes

Yesterday we talked about the state of the Resistance in the novel Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire. We talked a bit about the First Order, too, because it's hard to talk about one without talking about the other! Today, we'll talk more about the First Order as they appear in the novel, and clarify a timeline question about Black Spire in relation to A Crash of Fate. Punch it!

1,896: The State of the Resistance in "Black Spire" Sep 12, 2019

Show notes

Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire isn't part of the Journey to The Rise of Skywalker publishing initiative, and even if it were, they wouldn't want to reveal a heck of a lot about what might be coming in Episode IX. That said, there are things we can learn about the state of the Resistance in this period between The Last Jedi and The Rise of Skywalker, and that's what we're going to dig into today. Punch it!

1,895: What "Black Spire" Reveals About the Star Wars Timeline Sep 11, 2019

Show notes

Like the gentle push that starts the dominos falling, the details about when the events of Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire take place tell us not only about its place in the Sequel Era timeline, but also shed light on a significant section of the time in between Return of the Jedi and The Force Awakens. Punch it!

1,894: Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge: Black Spire Non-Spoiler Review Sep 10, 2019

Show notes

There's a lot to recommend "Black Spire," the new novel by "Phasma" author Delilah S. Dawson. The strengths of character and character interaction in the latter book are on full display here as well, headlined by the spectacular Vi Moradi and the returning Cardinal. The push of Vi outside her comfort zone by Leia makes for some compelling storytelling, with a bit of a foundational challenge. Punch it!

1,893: The Nature of Hope in 1977's "Star Wars" Sep 09, 2019

Show notes

For all the talk about the "Skywalker Saga" coming to an end, when you consider the very first Star Wars movie - which wasn't referred to as "A New Hope" until years later - Luke Skywalker isn't the new hope, and the Jedi aren't either. So, what's the real hope? And how is hope expressed by different characters in the movie? This and more in the first of a ten-part weekly series related to my upcoming book and TEDx talk, "Hyperspacing Hope." Punch it!

1,892: The Rise of Skywalker News & Notes Roundup Sep 08, 2019

Show notes

A blink-and-you'll-miss-it Star Destroyer clue, the "Siege Breaker," the dual-phase lightsaber, and what John Williams had to say about Poe Dameron - all of these little snippets of Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker news are interesting, but not substantial enough for an episode by themselves. So it's potpourri time! Or, put another way, it's time for a news and notes roundup. Punch it!

1,891: EW's Mandalorian Fall TV Preview Highlights Sep 07, 2019

Show notes

Entertainment Weekly's Fall TV Preview came out, and as predicted, The Mandalorian is prominently featured! On today's show, I'm covering the highlights of the new reveals from the issue - and talking about one item that (to my ears, at least) doesn't seem quite right... Punch it!

1,890: Revisiting the "trIXie" Working Title for The Rise of Skywalker Sep 06, 2019

Show notes

A couple hundred episodes ago (#1435, to be exact), we talked about the potential meaning of the then-newly-announced working title for Episode IX, "trIXie." (With the stylized capital IX, of course. Clever.) Here we are, a little more than a year later, and we know more about The Rise of Skywalker than we did back then. So let's re-examine the theory about that title's link to a 1973 George Romero horror movie, and see whether it holds new meaning... Punch it!

1,889: Is Kylo Ren or Rey the "Black Diamond" of Episode IX? Sep 05, 2019

Show notes

Previous production names for Star Wars movies had hidden meanings. Now that we know more about The Rise of Skywalker, does its production name "Carbonado Industries" tell us something more about the movie? Examining two character possibilities today, as well as the incredible, coincidental, geological connection between "carbonado" and Star Wars. Punch it!
