Episode 153 - The Beginning - The Phantom Menace That Could Have Happened

Blast Points Phantom Menace Year Begins with Jason and Gabe taking a look at the strange and fascinating early screenplay draft of TPM, The Beginning! The saga of the "Warka" family begins, there's almost no Qui Gon, and an original trilogy character shockingly "dies" in the end. From a certain point of view.... It's a real wild ride that could have resulted in a vastly different Episode 1! Tune in as we look at the characters, plots and weird decisions that almost happened! Have aspects from this draft have appeared in the sequel trilogy? It sure seems like it!! So win the race in The First Order Olympics, celebrate the love & listen today!
