Message From Space: Sword Of The Space Ark (Star Wars Rip Offs Part 2)

With Star Wars mania once again sweeping the nation, Byrd and Matt take a look at this TV spin off of the infamous Japanese Star Wars rip off, Message From Space.  After that film was released, Toei produced a television series spin off called Message From Space: Galactic Wars, which ran from 1978-1979.  When the show was bought by an American distributor, the series was condensed into a feature length movie and released to VHS in the early 1980s under the title Sword of the Space Ark.  So how did that go?  We have the answer!  But first, we have details on our first ever listener contest!  Also, lifelong Star Wars fan Byrd gives his spoiler free thoughts on Star Wars: The Last Jedi!
