It has been a few weeks since we've been able to get you a podcast about Star Wars, but we've been busy with superhero stuff on the sister podcast, This is the Way Phase Four. There was a disturbance in the Force, however, and Steve wanted to get back to basics before The Book of Boba Fett became an all-consuming presence.
Steve has been taking his time watching one episode of Visions at a time and more often than not, he's been surprised by what he likes. Star Wars didn't seem like it would fit in the anime world, but The Ninth Jedi is another one of those positive experiences that dares you to dislike it. How interesting would it have been if the lightsaber just glowed with the Force affinity of the user and colorless when the Jedi wasn't ready? Forget those weird beaded braids and "bleeding" a crystal.
The soundtracks are really starting to prove to be one of the highlights and perhaps it shows just how important John Williams' score was to the original movie that started this all. The story and history and future of this created universe are "the complete package" and the executive producer and the writer/director for this installment show the proper reverence while taking Star Wars into new areas.
Steve recaps "The Ninth Jedi", talks about the Filmmaker Focus featurette, and reminds you of our November giveaway being announced this month.
