BONUS EPISODE: J.J. Abrams to Direct, Co-Write Episode IX Sep 12, 2017

Show notes

Lucasfilm made the safe choice by re-hiring Force Awakens director/co-writer J.J. Abrams to be the new director/co-writer for Episode IX. As opposed to Larry Kasdan, the newly announced co-writer with Abrams will be Chris Terrio, who won the Best Adapted Screenplay Oscar for Argo, and who also has his name attached to Batman v Superman: Dawn of Justice. Punch it!

Show notes

Star Wars Made Easy, from DK Publishing, came out on September 1 as part of the "Journey to the Last Jedi" Force Friday II publishing initiative. Clear, concise, and filled with information that entertains without overwhelming, it also contains a few gems about The Force Awakens - and The Last Jedi, too. Punch it!

1,165: Untitled Han Solo Movie Update Sep 11, 2017

Show notes

With 256 days left before the premiere of the as-yet-untitled Han Solo movie, Ron Howard is posting photos of a rougher part of the galaxy - bar fights and all. Plus, I've got a theory about someone who could be making a cameo appearance in the movie, based on some recent social media activity. Don't worry, it's not a spoiler-y kind of thing... Punch it!

1,164: Snoke in the Past Tense, What "DJ" Might Mean, and More Sep 10, 2017

Show notes

The description of the Elite Praetorian Guard in the StarWars.com Databank includes a curious choice of verb tense as it relates to Supreme Leader Snoke. That's the first topic I'm covering on today's podcast, in which I'm rounding out the coverage of the Force Friday II toy reveals, and also talking about (with fair warning to avoid it if necessary) what "DJ" might stand for, according to the Auerbesh plaque on the hat of his Funko Pop vinyl figure. Punch it!

1,163: Crait, Gorilla Walkers, Resistance Ski Speeders and Bombers Sep 09, 2017

Show notes

Where were we, before we were so rudely interrupted by the departure of Colin Trevorrow from Star Wars Episode IX? Ahh, yes, we were looking at the new entries in the StarWars.com Databank together - specifically, new entries related to The Last Jedi. Let's get back to that, shall we? On tap today: much ado about Crait. Punch it!

1,162: In Kathleen Kennedy I Trust (and Why You Should, Too) Sep 08, 2017

Show notes

You can understand - sort of - why you'd see stories questioning whether Lucasfilm is in trouble. With all the directorial upheavals happening, and with a voracious entertainment news cycle built on clickbait and anxiety, it's almost a given. But there are many, many reasons to relax and repeat after me: "In Kathleen Kennedy I trust." Punch it!

1,161: (Female) Director Options for Star Wars Episode IX Sep 07, 2017

Show notes

Only two names are being bandied about by "inside sources" to replace Star Wars Episode IX director/co-writer Colin Trevorrow. However, there are a lot of other websites posting claims about who else would/could/should be considered as a replacement director. I'm digging onto all of that here, as well as opining on why it's high time to get a woman on board to direct a Lucasfilm project. Punch it!

1,160: BREAKING: Colin Trevorrow Out as Episode IX Director Sep 06, 2017

Show notes

With a short and sweet statement on StarWars.com, Lucasfilm again rocked the Star Wars fandom with the announcement that they were parting ways with Colin Trevorrow, the director and co-writer of Star Wars Episode IX. This one came as a surprise - there'd been no inside sources claiming anything was wrong prior to the announcement. (The foofaraw over Trevorrow's flop with "The Book of Henry" was essentially muck-raking - people trying to start trouble where no trouble had been reported.) Today, I'm talking about what the Hollywood trades are saying about the move, and what's going to happen next. Punch it!

1,159: What's on Luke Skywalker's Belt? (Plus New Databank Entries) Sep 05, 2017

Show notes

The action figures for Luke Skywalker are decidedly unaccessorized - he comes with nothing but his clothes and his robot hand. Not even a glove for it! But there's something about his belt that should make you oooh and aaah for a moment. Would Hasbro ever do a mail-in campaign for people to get his lightsaber after the fact? Seems like a lot to do for a tiny play piece, but I wonder... And also today, I'm digging into the updates to the StarWars.com Databank, starting with Luke, Rose, and the First Order Stormtrooper Executioner. Punch it!
