Show notes

The Last Jedi finishes its run. Solo: A Star Wars Story debuts. Episode IX begins and likely finishes principal photography. Rian Johnson's trilogy development gets underway. And maybe we get an announcement about a previously rumored Obi-Wan Kenobi movie, too? It's going to be a busy year for Star Wars movies... Punch it!

1,276: The Lucasfilm 2017 Year in Review Dec 31, 2017

Show notes

"Tumultuous" would be a fair word for the world of Lucasfilm in 2017. The departure of Lord and Miller from Solo: A Star Wars Story, the departure of Colin Trevorrow and company from Episode IX, the foofaraw from a segment of people over The Last Jedi, and the microtransaction melee prior to the release of Star Wars Battlefront II all made for more dramatic headlines than Lucasfilm is used to in a given year. They also had one movie finish its run as the 7th biggest domestic movie of all time, another gearing up to beat that total, and a surprisingly low-key announcement of a new trilogy to come. Punch it!

BONUS EPISODE: Inside the Making of the The Last Jedi Commercials for Nissan Dec 31, 2017

Show notes

Last year, Nissan came out with commercials for their Limited Edition Rogue that featured special effects elements that looked like they came straight out of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story. This year, as with other aspects of their campaign in conjunction with The Last Jedi, they raised the bar considerably. From AT-M6s to squadrons of TIE led by the TIE Silencer, and First Order landing bays with troops led by Captain Phasma, the Nissan Intelligent Mobility commercials made the features fun - thanks in part to landing a very cool director for the project.

In this third of three conversations with Jeremy Meadows, Senior Manager for Strategy and Integration with Nissan USA, I'm getting all the behind-the-scenes details about the design and execution of these commercials, including the roles played by Lucasfilm, ILM, and the 501st Legion. Punch it!

1,275: In Memoriam: Lights We Lost in the Star Wars Galaxy in 2017 Dec 30, 2017

Show notes

Although we didn't lose any "big names" in 2017 like we did with Carrie Fisher and Kenny Baker last year, the folks who passed away this year all made their marks in indelible ways on the Star Wars galaxy we've known and thrilled to for the past forty years.

1,274: 7 Storylines From The Force Awakens Rendered Moot by The Last Jedi Dec 29, 2017

Show notes

J.J. Abrams set out a lot of possible paths for the director who would follow in his storytelling footsteps. And it's fair to say that Rian Johnson seems to have zagged a lot of times where other folks might have expected him to zig. In today's episode, I've collected some of the biggest plotlines and potential plotlines from The Force Awakens that went nowhere (or next to it) in The Last Jedi - including one suggested by the spectacular Carrie Fisher herself. Punch it!

1,273: What Choices Did Rian Johnson Give J.J. Abrams for Episode IX? Dec 28, 2017

Show notes

With the decisions Rian Johnson made for The Last Jedi and the fates of its characters and major galactic powers (or lack thereof, as the case may be), he's potentially created a deja vu situation. For Episode IX, J.J. Abrams and Chris Terrio may have no choice but to echo the events of Star Wars: A New Hope all over again (and in brand-new ways) to close out the Sequel "Trilogy." Punch it!

1,272: Is the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy Actually a "Trilogy"? Dec 27, 2017

Show notes

Since J.J. Abrams only did The Force Awakens, and didn't lay out a plan for Episodes VIII and IX ... and since Rian Johnson only did The Last Jedi and didn't lay out a plan for Episode IX ... are we actually getting a Star Wars "trilogy" in the true sense of the word with this Sequel Trilogy? Or are we getting something else entirely - something that might happen to be very close to the heart of the Maker himself, George Lucas? Punch it!

BONUS EPISODE: Inside the Making of Nissan's The Last Jedi Accessory Packages Dec 27, 2017

Show notes

Fresh off their successful Rogue One Limited Edition Nissan Rogue, the folks at Nissan USA raised their game in creating customized accessory packages in honor of their partnership with Lucasfilm and in celebration of the release of The Last Jedi. To find out what went into the making of the new Limited Edition vehicles - just 3,000 in all! - I talked with Jeremy Meadows, a life-long Star Wars fan and the Senior Manager for Strategy and Integration with Nissan. Punch it!

1,271: Who Is The Last Jedi and the Sequel Trilogy Really About? Dec 26, 2017

Show notes

On first blush, the Sequel Trilogy is about Rey, Finn, and Poe, as the new generation of heroes. But when you expand your viewpoint to include the Prequel and Original Trilogies, and you consider that these movies make up the "Skywalker Saga," and you factor in what we now know (or think we know) about Rey's parents, it starts to make you wonder who the main character of The Last Jedi really is. Punch it!
