Episode 1,469: Why Did Chewie Trust Han in the Mud Pit? Jul 12, 2018

Show notes

I was just sitting around, happening to think about Solo: A Star Wars Story the other day, as one does. And I got to wondering: Why is it that Chewie decides to trust Han when they're down in that mud pit together, where they first meet? I think I have an answer... Punch it!

Show notes

This rumor's been kicking around ever since Billy Dee Williams had to cancel a convention appearance due to an unknown movie conflict. Well, now it's kicked up to another level, as The Hollywood Reporter is quoting sources that say Williams will, in fact, be reprising the role of Lando Calrissian in Episode IX. Punch it!

1,467: Episode IX Pre-Production Update Jul 10, 2018

Show notes

Episode IX is still firmly in pre-production mode - no announcement on principal photography just yet, though it's supposed to be starting later this month. Meanwhile, Keri Russell is allegedly in talks to play a role in Episode IX, and based on her physical appearance, folks are jumping to conclusions about whether her character may be related to Rey. But is that a good thing? Punch it!

1,466: Scoundrel Business: Wham, Bam, Thanks Japan! Jul 09, 2018

Show notes

With Solo: A Star Wars Story slipping out of the Top 10 in box office totals during the seventh weekend of its release, this will be the last weekly Scoundrel Business update, though we'll check in on Solo from time to time during the summer. Meanwhile, I'm also talking about projected home video release dates, and the countdown to Episode IX. Punch it!

1,465: Are You Scared, Darth Vader? Jul 08, 2018

Show notes

In the spirit of something we were talking about earlier in the week, about sharing the joy of Star Wars with new generations, I humbly present "Are You Scared, Darth Vader?" (Thanks to Disney-Lucasfilm Press for sending me a copy to check out!) In the best tradition of children's books - stunning and unusual artwork, a surprise twist or three, and a breaking of the metaphorical fourth wall - this has laughs for the little ones and is witty and savvy enough to reward the adult reader with a few laughs, too. Punch it!

1,464: The 4th Anniversary of Star Wars 7x7! Jul 07, 2018

Show notes

On July 7th, 2014, Star Wars 7x7 went live on iTunes with four episodes, and a promise to deliver a daily dose of Star Wars joy. Four years and more than 1,500 numbered and bonus episodes later, it's time to pause for a moment and share a heaping helping of gratitude for people who've made this milestone possible. Punch it!

1,463: The Political and Social Depth of George Lucas' Star Wars Jul 06, 2018

Show notes

Star Wars isn't so resonant because of its pulling from Joseph Campbell's monomyth. It's because it also pulls from political and social history as well - and not just the history of the United States, though that certainly plays a part. And when you take a closer look at the ideas and values Lucas wove into the good-guy side of the space opera, it's kind of surprising to hear people complaining about Kathleen Kennedy and Rian Johnson for following and building upon the same ideas Lucas espoused for decades...

1,462: My One Philosophical Disagreement With George Lucas Jul 05, 2018

Show notes

You can talk about individual story choices all you want - and the Force knows I will, too - but when it comes to the bigger picture of Star Wars, I only have one particular disagreement with what George Lucas did with the Star Wars Saga. Being that I'm of a certain age, you might guess that it has something to do with the Special Editions, and you'd be correct. But I think I have a different take on it from what you might hear most often from people who think he shouldn't have tinkered with the Original Trilogy. Punch it!

1,461: Scarcity and Star Wars Jul 04, 2018

Show notes

Many times over the years here at Star Wars 7x7, we've talked about how the scarcity of Star Wars films over the first 30+ years of its existence may have been part of the secret sauce that helped create the level of devotion it has achieved. After the reception of Solo: A Star Wars Story, and reports from anonymous sources about how the standalone movies are being considering in the wake of Solo, what does that mean for the value of scarcity now? Punch it!
