In this episode, Eric, Haley, and Haley’s friend Chris Estep discuss their history with Star Wars video games and take turns pitching new game ideas.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #53: Mae Didn’t Start The Fire (Except She Did)It’s rare that we at Hoth Takes are so overwhelmingly critical of a piece of Star Wars media, but The Acolyte’s final two episodes definitely earned that treatment.

We also discuss the Jedi’s culpability for the events on Brendok and the Republic’s interest in overseeing Jedi business. Plus, we speculate about what Darth Plagueis is up to and how much Vernestra will confess to Yoda. And you’ll never guess what big unresolved question Haley wants answered.

In this episode, Haley’s Dispatch colleague David French joins us to discuss the 2006 Star Wars novel Darth Bane: Path of Destruction, the effectiveness of the Rule of Two, and how different stories depict the dark side’s inherently corrupting nature. We explore the cautionary tale of Bane’s descent into evil, consider whether the Rule of Two was necessary to assure the success of Palpatine’s grand plan, and examine the similarities between the dark side and drug addiction.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #17: I Would Like To Know ThingsWe’re three chapters into The Book of Boba Fett, and we still know almost nothing about what’s going on. In this episode, we discuss the show’s pacing, tone, and narrative, including a plotline that’s lasted too long, a crime lord who isn’t violent enough, a city that’s too empty, and speeder bikes that are too shiny. We also vent about virtual sets, discuss romantic possibilities, and praise the guest stars and lore references. Plus, Eric makes an embarrassing timeline mistake, Grace pours one out for a very special Hutt, and Haley reveals two completely unsurprising...

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #16: Build Back Jar JarLet’s face it — the Galactic Senate doesn’t make much sense. For one thing, how do they have enough pods for every senator? And what’s with corporations getting seats? In this episode, we explore why the Senate is so weird and how that weirdness affects the Star Wars galaxy. We look at the strange role of junior representatives, the divide between the Senate and local authorities, and depictions of the legislative process in canon. Plus, we discuss how we would reform the Senate, including whether it would have benefited from a strong party system and more empowered committees. It’s the...

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #15: Pay Us The Money And Give Us The SpiceWhat do Loki and That’s So Suite Life of Hannah Montana have in common? Every big franchise has cameos and tie-ins, but only the best franchises balance these bits of connectivity with storytelling that can stand on its own. In this episode, Haley returns from her well-deserved maternity leave to join Eric and Grace for a look back at Star Wars: Visions and a look ahead at The Book of Boba Fett and other upcoming shows. We discuss our favorite Visions episodes and how the show benefits from telling stories about regular people; our hopes for the focus of th...

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #14: With Hayden Christensen as Cantina Patron #4Hayden Christensen isn’t just returning to Star Wars in Disney+’s Obi-Wan Kenobi series. According to a recent report, he’ll also appear in the Ahsoka Tano series. Hayden’s return is super exciting, but we do have some questions. In this episode, Eric and Grace discuss the best ways for these two series to expand on Anakin Skywalker’s relationships with two of the most important people in his life. We talk about flashbacks and Force ghosts, Clone Wars memories and exchanges of wisdom, and of course, wigs and CGI. Plus, we consider how Disney could really surprise us with Ha...

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #13: Unionize the DroidsDroids: They’re everywhere in Star Wars, quietly helping to make the galaxy run, but we rarely think about their needs and wants — or their rights. In this episode, Eric and Grace discuss thorny issues of droid sentience, explore the moral questions posed by restraining bolts, and review how our heroes treat their robotic friends throughout the saga. Plus, we examine the role that battle droids play in the story and the ethical dilemmas that they present.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #12: Lightspeed to the Danger ZoneShould Jedi have been allowed to marry? What dangers did romantic relationships really pose to the stability of the Order and the success of its mission? Could the Jedi of the prequel trilogy have learned a thing or two from their counterparts two hundred years prior? In this episode, Eric and Grace discuss the nuances of the Jedi’s prohibition against attachments. Love can make people better versions of themselves, but fixation on a loved one can distract a Jedi from their higher purpose. Masters and apprentices form strong bonds that help them work better together, but an overprotective master ca...

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #11: You Don't Look A Gift Clone Army In The MouthHow did the Jedi Order go astray? At what point did its fatal flaws develop, and how did Darth Sidious’ machinations accelerate that corruption? In this episode, Eric and Grace explore the Jedi’s tragic decline and fall, from their restrictive dogmas to their sudden militarization during the Clone Wars. We discuss the effects of the Jedi being so close to the Republic (including whether they really had any other choice), whether the Jedi could have played a better role in the war, and whether Yoda should have listened to Qui-Gon about staying focused on the here and now.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #10: Critical Space TheoryWe’re wrapping up our series on the original trilogy with an episode about the delightful but imperfect Return of the Jedi. Does the movie wrap things up too perfectly? Is it more akin to A New Hope or The Empire Strikes Back? Did Darth Vader deserve redemption? Eric and Grace explore all of these questions. Plus, we compare Luke and Anakin’s responses to dark side temptations, discuss Leia and Han’s questionable storylines, and agree that the Ewoks rule and Salacious B. Crumb is a king.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #9: Can Darth Vader Have It All?It’s all about family in this episode as we try to discuss The Empire Strikes Back without repeating what everyone has said for the past 40 years. With Haley out on maternity leave, Eric and Grace discuss the underappreciated nuances of Darth Vader’s iconic paternity reveal and Luke’s seemingly hereditary impulsiveness and insecurity. Plus, Grace explains why she’s Team Lando, and we look at the missed opportunity of Leia’s Force-sensitivity. We would be honored if you would join us.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #8: Into The Garbage Chute, Listeners!Is it even possible to put aside 44 years of nostalgia and analyze A New Hope the way moviegoers might have seen it in 1977? In this episode, Eric and Grace explore why the first Star Wars movie worked so well, how it fares as an introduction to the universe, and how it differs tonally from later films. Plus, Eric shares a truly stunning statistic about a major character’s screen time, and Grace shares a truly controversial opinion about the film’s final act.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #7: Keeping Up With The ClonesAs The Bad Batch gets underway, we look at the ups and downs of the first three episodes. The Empire gets recruits, Kanan’s backstory gets retconned, and Clone Force 99 gets a Grogu. Did we think this was a “bad batch” of initial stories? Tune in to find out what issues and themes are in our “crosshairs.” Plus, find out which one of us identifies with Hunter and, more specifically, his knives.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #6: Interestingly, Yoda Is Also A PalpatineSomehow, our podcast has returned. In our breakdown (or perhaps we should say teardown) of The Rise of Skywalker, we discuss Rey’s nonsensical lineage, deuteragonist Kylo’s unsatisfying fate, and Palpatine cycling through grand plans faster than you can say “The dead speak!” Plus, Grace has a controversial opinion about Leia’s presence in the movie, and we break out our magnifying glasses to try to find Finn and Rose’s roles.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #5: The Galaxy Quest of Star WarsThere’s so much to say about The Last Jedi that we’re devoting a second episode to it, but this time, we have a special guest: New York Times opinion columnist Jamelle Bouie, who ranks The Last Jedi behind only the original two Star Wars movies on his list. We discuss Jamelle’s view that The Last Jedi is the only sequel film with something profound to say about Star Wars, the value of subverting tropes, the tension between innovation and nostalgia, and the power of the idea that anyone can be a hero (shout-out to Broom Boy!).

2021-04-191h 00

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #4: Red Velvet Crait The Last Jedi’s character development was pretty uneven. It added new layers to Rey’s loneliness, Kylo’s inner turmoil, Poe’s impulsiveness, and Finn’s search for purpose, but it suffered from a compressed time frame, and many of its choices were controversial. In this episode, we talk about Rey Rando, Disgruntled Luke, and the rest of our merry band. Plus, we split two-against-one over Holdo’s actions — and it might not be the split you expect.

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #3: Why Do We Have Bitcoin but Not Space Bread?Was The Force Awakens a carbon copy of A New Hope? And how much does that matter? In this episode, we review the first Star Wars sequel film with the benefit of hindsight and discuss what worked (space bread), what didn’t (Rathtars), and what seemed like a good setup but never got the payoff it deserved (where to even begin?). Eric has thoughts about R2-D2, Grace has praise for Oscar Isaac, and Haley takes a moment to remember the New Republic (we literally hardly knew ye).

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #2: It’s Nothing but Red Flags Attack of the Clones is one of the most widely criticized Star Wars films, but there’s actually a lot to love about it. From Anakin and Obi-Wan’s friendship and Palpatine’s political machinations to C-3PO’s puns and Padme’s dresses, the red-headed stepchild of the Skywalker saga doesn’t get enough praise. In this episode, we share our favorite things about the much-maligned second prequel — and discuss some of the film’s problems, including several that have mostly flown under the radar. “Attack of the Clones isn’t total garbage” might be one of the hothest takes in Star Wars fan

Hoth Takes: A Star Wars Podcast Hoth Takes #1: Always Crying Over FivesWe’re kicking off our podcast with one of Star Wars’ eternal questions: What is the best story arc of the animated series The Clone Wars? Our picks span the show’s latter seasons and reveal the thoughtful, dramatic world-building and character development that made the series such a hit with fans. (An important caveat: we deliberately excluded Season 7’s Siege of Mandalore arc from this discussion because it is too good and deserves its own episode.)

Hoth Factory [HF289] Borat 2 - Baldur's Gate 3 - Persona 5 Royal - Yakuza Dead Souls - Charla pre next-genEsto ya se va pareciendo más a una edición de Hoth Factory como debe ser. Entre Miguel, Gintoky y Adri (junto a la breve intervención de Fer) os hablamos de la esperada secuela de Borat, del acceso anticipado de Baldur's Gate 3, y de Persona 5 Royal. Corto pero intenso es Yakuza Dead Souls, y nos viene de perlas para empalmar con una charla pre next-gen en la que tocamos todos los puntos clave de las nuevas consolas unos días antes de sus respectivos lanzamientos.
