Sunday May 26, 2019

I recorded this podcast right after watching the Star Wars Episode IX: Rise of Skywalker trailer. Erin watched it about a week later and our reactions were a bit different.

I have seen the Star Wars movies about a billion times and have read a bunch of the books. Erin has seen Episodes I, Rouge One, and IV-VIII once but has heard me talk about Star Wars for years.

-The flip

-My concern

-The title

-The prequels

-“Podrace” not podcast

-What was good and bad about the prequels

-What would have made me disappointed about The Last Jedi

-More concerns about Rise of Skywalker

-Palpatine

-My expectations

-What I want and what I don’t want

-Metallica

-Billy Dee Williams

-My friend spoiled the trailer

-The title

-Luke

-An outline?

-Marvel and predictability

-After Episode IX. By “a while”, I mean 2022 since the story broke after I recorded this podcast

-Rian Johnson

-My Star Wars history and hope

-Dangerous and unpredictable

Erin’s here and I record her reaction:

-The laugh

-Mike’s Concern
