1,148: All About the First Order Dreadnought in The Last Jedi Aug 25, 2017

Show notes

Yesterday, I talked with you about the First Order's AT-M6 "gorilla" walker revealed on the Star Wars Show, and today I'm going over the details of the Dreadnought - that's the giant 7.7 kilometer/4.5 mile long First Order ship packing two massive orbital auto cannons. Lucasfilm design supervisor Kevin Jenkins reveals that it was designed for a particular sequence, and I've got some thoughts about what that might be... Punch it!

1,147: Revealed! The AT-M6 "Gorilla" Walker in The Last Jedi Aug 24, 2017

Show notes

On the Star Wars Show on Wednesday, two new vehicles from The Last Jedi were revealed! I'm talking about one of them today, the AT-M6 - that would be the All Terrain MegaCaliber Six for those of you interested in such things. The reveal, and the related interview with Lucasfilm design supervisor Kevin Jenkins, has implications for everything from ways to combat it in specific, to design decisions for the Sequel Trilogy in general, and more. Punch it!

Show notes

Star Wars 7x7 Patron Bobby Gordon caught up with Star Wars Rebels' Taylor Gray, who was performing in his new play "Sold in the Name of Sex" at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. (Which he wrote, produced, and directed as well.) They talked about the play and its inspiration, Taylor's favorite Star Wars memory, what's in store for Ezra Bridger in Rebels Season 4, and what Taylor's plans are beyond Rebels. Punch it!

1,145: What Star Wars Can Learn From Star Trek Aug 22, 2017

Show notes

It was a marathon podcast call-in show! I hung out with Steele Saunders for about two hours, as his guest on the Steele Wars call-in show. The Obi-Wan Kenobi movie was a hot topic, of course, and in this excerpt from the show, Steele begins by suggesting Star Wars could look to another franchise in terms of figuring out where their next great success could lie. Punch it!

1,144: Steele Saunders' Favorite Star Wars Memory Aug 21, 2017

Show notes

When I've been doing single-question interviews in 2017, the one question I've been asking folks is, "What's your favorite Star Wars memory?" I had the good fortune to hang out with Steele Saunders last Friday, and he graciously contributed a lovely story that harkens back to a special viewing party for The Force Awakens in Australia. Punch it!

1,143: What Does the Phasma Novel Synopsis Tell Us? Aug 20, 2017

Show notes

The synopsis for the novel "Phasma" by Delilah S. Dawson has been released, as well as three posters depicting mysterious characters from the novel. Well, not so mysterious anymore, perhaps, since the synopsis seems to make it rather clear who at least two of the three characters are. Punch it!

1,142: What's "Official" and "Confirmed" About an Obi-Wan Movie? Aug 19, 2017

Show notes

Some Star Wars new sources, I trust whatever they're reporting about. Other sources, I only trust for certain things. I was reminded starkly of this by the reporting on the Obi-Wan Kenobi movie rumors. Some o those semi-trusted sources used the words "official," "confirmed," or other forms of those words when they shouldn't have - since neither Lucasfilm nor Disney have even *responded* to the reports. Punch it!

1,141: Is an Obi-Wan Kenobi Star Wars Story in the Works? Aug 18, 2017

Show notes

it's early, EARLY days yet, but unnamed sources (perhaps inside Lucasfilm, perhaps not) are saying that director Stephen Daldry (Billy Elliot, The Hours, The Reader) is in an early, EARLY stage of talks with Lucasfilm about directing an Obi-Wan Kenobi standalone Star Wars Story. I'm breaking down the rumors that began with The Hollywood Reporter yesterday (8/17). Punch it!

1,140: Why Is Luke Isolating Himself on Ahch-To? Aug 17, 2017

Show notes

Earlier this year, I theorized that one of the biggest challenges Luke would have in The Last Jedi is coming to terms with the guilt of what happened with Ben Solo and the destruction of the fledgling Jedi Academy. In the fall 2017 Movie Preview cover story on The Last Jedi in Entertainment Weekly, Rian Johnson and Mark Hamill give interviews which suggest I was pretty on the money with this one. Punch it!

1,139: How Much Will The Last Jedi Resemble The Empire Strikes Back? Aug 16, 2017

Show notes

Rian Johnson notes that, structurally, J.J. Abrams essentially handed Johnson a situation that already had a number of structural parallels to The Empire Strikes Back. So Johnson set about making it different. Here's a look at some of the similarities we've seen so far, along with some of the more noticeable differences. Punch it!
