TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

We got into build on hope! And welcome to another episode of Red River Night Star Wars podcast! I'll bet I got that one over there, Sajgos, Alti1, Kanobi and thank you for joining us for our third and final recap episode on Star Wars Celebration 2025. Alti1 a weekend, it's been for growing in depth into what happened this past week.

Yesterday the whole weekend we talked about it, but what I show man, it's so starting to finally settle down. We just had 72 hours, straight Star Wars, awesomeness. I'm going to make this next week and we have Ando in two days. I'm going to feel a little bit different, but I'm glad we have something to call the stuff about How you do today after all these huge Star Wars weekend.

I'm doing good, I'm tired. I woke up almost at noon. But yeah, it's going to be interesting because I think we've been in a Star Wars model since skeleton crew, not much has been going on. Both have come out, but that's not enough to reignite an entire franchise, unfortunately.

But now with Andor and then we'll piggyback on that to the end of the High Republic. I think we have some exciting months ahead of us. Yeah, man, I think that Star Wars law, we're past that. Especially coming next year, 2026, 2027 is packed with everything that's been announced.

And then if we start thinking that maybe we get a movie every year or every other year plus an animated series and they keep going with that tailsoft, there's a lot. There's a lot to keep us very happy. I think we'll have another law in after visions ends from there all the way to the next show, which we don't know when that will be or may for the Mandewangrulu. But after that, it's going to be downhill in a sense from there.

It's going to be things after things because then after that we're going to start getting ready for the next movie as a season two, animated series, everything. So it'll be very nice. It's the only one when the secret trilogy came out and then you have all the stand-alone in between like every week, everything. There was always something new, new images and information.

But we'll get to it. Obviously I had to pull out my blue light that I mentioned. It's my little lightsaber light. So that's my light today.

It made me reconsider my lighting situation. So thank you for that. You're welcome. The other thing that I was going to say, if you're the kind of person who doesn't enjoy having Star Wars in your life every week, enjoy the silence.

I'm going to get loud. Enjoy the after the summer. You'll be fine. Thanks everyone.

That's watching us live today. If you're watching this, make sure to hit that like button, subscribe to our channel so you don't miss any new episodes when they drop. We have a huge guest coming for Andor recap and then so on and so forth with the High Republic ending. I'm sure we'll do a huge panel just covering the whole phase one, two, three.

We'll do the whole thing. And subscribe, comment down below and if you listen to the other podcast. I'm trying to get them out for tomorrow. At least the first two will be out tomorrow.

I don't know if this will be out at eight in the morning, but we'll be out there at some point soon. So thank you for following us over there and give us a place to write and reveal. Who's out there in the chat today? Okay, Dale says always in time for nap time.

Nap time sounds like perfect right now. Yeah, and Ching is in the chat. Hello, hello there. Alan just got a brand new tattoo of this stranger.

He showed me the other day. Congratulations. I haven't checked it out, but I will. And I love Star Wars animation.

I love Star Wars animation too. Yeah, we all do. All right. So let's go.

So if you guys already I'm not ready. Let's talk Star Wars and Star Wars news. Star Wars news. And if there's one Star Wars news, we'll go straight to it.

We won't build around it. So Star Wars celebration day three, like I mentioned, final day of it. We're recapping everything and we're going to jump straight to it. We won't very that lead.

We won't wait till the end of the episode. What everyone was waiting for yesterday was where is Star Wars celebration going to be in 2027? Is the 50th anniversary? Are they coming back to the States?

Are they going to say in Europe? Europe, we had our thoughts yesterday of where we I think wanted it to be because it will be a lot easier for us. But yes, 2027 Star Wars celebration lost and has April 1st to April 4th back to the four day format. I was a little bit confused.

I thought it was always three days because these three days in Japan was a lot. Just couch going was a lot. So we have four days starting on Thursday, April 1st. April 1st day, I'm sorry.

I call your job that you want. But are they big news? It's like in the States we can maybe there's a chance we'll make it out there. It's two years to cleanse.

So initial thoughts on this. I want to go to the April 1st thing. I was telling Tony that April 1st. It will probably be like a known.

So for like from 8am to known, it's going to be a bombardment of fake news. So get ahead of that. You have two years to plan for that. Just watch it.

Not coming straight from Star Wars account. Even the people that are retweeting and reposting live over there. Watch the live stream. You have two years to get ready for that misinformation company.

My second thought is LA, so far away, still very expensive. But I'll tell you the same thing. I'll tell Tony I will do everything I can to be there. If I have interferes and I can't, but it's couch con again.

I'll be happy to be there. I couch con, but I will do everything in my power to be there. I'm not sure. I'm not sure.

You thought about going to Star Wars celebration at some point. Do you see yourself trying to be, let's say Los Angeles trying to be there for the four days or at least get one day in? No, no. If I'm going there, I'm going there for the four days.

Okay. Probably try to do a Napa Valley trip. So I'm allowed to go. You're all enough now to go over there.

No, but you know what? I would love to go to the Galaxy Central where there also, like if I'm there, I'll try to get there. Yeah, it's just, it's one of those things when you have to fly so far, stay here whole week and then do all the stuff around it. I know if it was down in Orlando somewhere, somewhere close, I would try to at least go once.

I mean, for one day, I don't know if I could make it all four or three. But I understand if you're flying eight hours away, let's make a day of it, right? Let's take the whole trip. Yeah, I was selling Tony.

I'll be living in Massachusetts at that point. So like, celebration London and celebration really is the same thing. So I'm going to say, sorry, LA traffic sucks and the public transit. Yes, I'm very, I've only been to LA once and my takeaway was like, how horrible the traffic is Tony was telling me like, Oh, I have some friends there.

We could bunk with them. I'm like, I'll be a 33 year old man at that point. Like I'm not staying in anyone's couch. I saw there was a hotel in front of the convention center.

I will be staying there. Yeah, yes. You go from the airport, get an Uber straight to the hotel and then just walk the whole time. Yep.

If there's no good food, I'll over eat or something. Yeah. Oh, you guys, keep an eye on their channel, their party have something coming up or made a fourth. I may have contributed something.

So I'll talk about it when I can. I don't, I can't give hints, but I don't want to spoil it. So yeah, I already dropped a little hint here on my house. Hey, 27, what's it got to our life?

So we'll see. It's not really difficult, but we'll see. I told my wife like, I think we're going to LA April, 20, 20, 20, she's like, why? I'm like, we'll see.

Just think about it. Start making plans, place you would like to go. But yeah, 20, 20, 50, anyway, so it's going to be a huge, can't even start to think what might happen over there. I'm sure they're already planning for it.

And it's going to be a big, it's a, what a month and a half before the new movie drops are before a store fighter. So congratulations to all the people in to Japan and congratulations to around the spring to celebration. And hopefully things have come down a little bit of people from other States can feel safe flying in, which I know is going to be very difficult. Not much will have changed.

years something has to happen. It will either get very, very much better or it'll get very, very worse. It's one of those things that you can say, well, at least it has nothing changed. We stay the same.

We're bad right now. That's the way I address the change. But anyway, all right. So let's go ahead.

Let's talk about the big panel yesterday. Third day, I don't want to say not a lot to announce. There was a lot of stuff going on, but the big thing was Bishan season three. And I saw you tweeted that you got emotional when they said that they're doing the continuation of three of the shorts.

And the village bride, the ninth Jedi, and the dual I get in continuation stories, the continuing stories, follow up sequels, whatever you want to call it. Bishan's volume three. I don't know if I said season three volume three. The initial thoughts are the I know I saw what you both said, but you were very excited for this.

Especially for the next day. I was super excited. I, you know, I like fidget is enough. I know some people just adore it.

I am just a casual visions fan. But when they when they flat out started with three of the short start getting sequels and it's the village ride and it's the Ronan the I was like, what? So when I said I got emotional, I was like excited emotionally. It got a reaction out of me that I was not expecting.

And then seeing what we saw for the new ones, I was truly blown away. I was very happy with that panel. I love the panel. This is the only one I had written down for day three.

And I'm not disappointed this celebration. I want, eh, but this didn't disappoint. I'll be honest, the news that they're doing sequels to some of them through me for a look a little bit. I love that the vision kind of DNA is always something new.

So when it was, oh, we're going back and kind of doing a sequel to episodes that we had before, I was a little bit like, ah, they cannot throw this a little bit away. I know everything that you can do with visions. But again, once I started seeing all the concept all day show, they saw little clips of some of the episodes. And then of course, that's Cecil Rio will watch in a minute.

I'm like, who cares? Look at, especially that do we got a lot from the doors like Jesus Christ. I want to see this and the nice J that I was probably my second favorite of season one of volume one. So yeah, maybe it's not what I expected.

But same as we said before. What do you want? For me, visions is just always going to be something new. So going back and refold me some stories.

So we kind of took away from what I saw the DNA of it. But this is going from the same creators. It's not like look as we're me telling them, hey, no, you got to do this because he finds love this. If they have a story to tell them, I'm fine with it.

I just wanted something new stories from those same studios. I can see that. For me, specifically the ninth year, I was so much like watching that short of me like, this could be its own thing. This is like so interesting.

And it's far enough in the timeline that it could be canon. And then being like, no, diving deeper into that. All the questions that you had, all the, you know, and it takes a little bit of a way of demonstrating which made it fun, but still them being like, we're fleshing out that world of the ninth year. I'm like, go right ahead.

I remember when visions of volume one came out, the nice J that was the one that most people were saying if something has to be canon, this could be it. Like it fits perfectly on it. And just watching it, if you don't even care about canon, just watching was a great, a great episode, a great little show to keep. Get a continuation of it from the same team.

And we'll talk in a minute of it. Don't even further that you hinted at it. There's something there. They're not just, eh, let me just do it.

There's something there if they're gone to the, to the lens that they've gone to. By the way, I just want to quickly comment. I was seeing some chatter in the chat. The celebration 20, 27 is in LA, not Anaheim.

Something that I've learned recently is not the same. So. Do I learn recently? Unfortunately, the tragedy happened a couple months ago with the fire scene in LA.

LA counties like four counties. It's not just little Los Angeles. It's huge over there. So, right.

So what's in the chat? I see. There's a lot of people. Talk about the food around the Anaheim Convention Center.

That's why I plan it. It's in LA, not Anaheim. It's in the LA Convention Center, which by the way, I looked at it in Google Maps. It's huge.

Yeah. Yeah. And so, and I checked up the hotels available. You can't go that far until the time.

Yeah. We rarely get. Get on the hill so they'll soon. I'm sure they're going to get.

You can only reserve a year ahead of time. Well, what are you going for a year from now? Yeah. Let me see.

They're talking about fruit. Oh, Brennan is here. Hi, Brennan. Hey, Brennan.

H. Brennan is there. We're not. Yeah.

It's not. All right. So let's talk a little bit about this show. We got the title for all nine.

We mentioned already they brought the directors of the writers. Someone from the studio to give a little five minute presentation of it. Kind of the elevator pitch. I love that they kept.

I mean, it's something that I love. They did in Japan when they were going straight to the Japanese creators and the writers and writers. Let's give that interview in Japanese moderators. We're from over there.

You don't get lost in translation with translator who do their best. OK. We didn't get out of it. We didn't understand what's going on.

But you could tell a little bit different watching that. OK, let's go to your notes. No, no, no, no. I was going to say I don't know.

I was going to say that during my conversation with Tony. I was telling him like, I didn't write a lot down because I didn't understand what they were talking about. And like, there were some cool pieces of heart that I saw that I like, but didn't know what they were. But thank you to the people in Twitter that either spoke Japanese or were Japanese and were translating everything.

I mean, not line by line, but yeah. Oh, this segment is going to be this. And that was very helpful. So all right.

All right. So first stop, we have the nice, jedi, the child of hope, the little nice image there. You're going to love those drawings when you come out. I don't remember a lot.

I got to go back, of course, before volume three comes out. I'll rewatch all the ones that we're getting. So I have to 1000% rewatch all three of them. Yeah.

Well, let's go. I mean, all of the, I know last time I for volume two, I said, I have somebody animated myself, didn't mess well with me. That's why I didn't connect with some of the episodes. Everything that we saw, it's right off my alley.

I love everything that we saw that we got the dual payback. I have this image for you because I know that you love that little mouse drawer with a creature inside of it. I'll be surprised. I did not really pay attention to that.

I was more focused on the freaking at it or the Japanese temple on the back. Oh, yeah. That's what, yeah. That's what caught my attention.

I think it was a like 8K RK something like that. Then that wookie, Mad Max. I wonder, they might just be background characters, but they go through all these. Whatever.

Design. They look at this was my favorite. Maybe, you know, little freaking pray mentis. Don't stay with the Japanese tower.

Just looks great. I was able to zoom in. I guess there's a mantis in the cantina in any hope. And they said, they were saying, ah, it's just in the background.

So you're okay to use this one. It doesn't matter. So that dual payback will be the continuation of the first episode. I mean, the dual is the one that we got in novels comics.

There's a lot of. So they released this act this black series figure for the bill. That was incredible. I wanted it, but it was 70 bucks.

And I don't know if I want more toys. But just a box alone was insane. Well, you gotta get little, little things now. See, this is the only thing I have a little some being there.

That's true. That's a slayer, doorables. Yeah, I don't have space for big stuff anymore, unfortunately. Unless it's a helmet or lightsaber, but yeah, I'm stealing back.

Anyway, we keep going with the last ones. The Willis Bride, this was one of those episodes I did in Connected, as much as most people did. I know fans of the Willis Bride love the Willis Bride unconditionally. I wasn't there.

I enjoyed it, but hopefully the last one gets me a little bit more. Yeah, if you probably go back to where you on the guy saying like, I don't know why people love it. I kind of think I remember liking it, but I don't know. I remember when the hills change and she put out the lightsaber and did that dash and everyone fell in love with it.

I remember that. I don't remember. I'll remember this going forward with this Jukos treasure and the most lovable panda with a microwave or whatever it is. That's the only thing we took away from that.

I swear, it's the only words we got. The short they show for that was cool. It was great. And it's huge.

This is like Baymax, basically. Yeah. It's huge. I'll take it.

All the cute stuff in Sawart is awesome. Then we got this Moggler, which seems to be, at least from that trailer, that's actually real might be a little bit more on the fun side. I think they're in the right in the spiller. Look pretty cool.

They set the ground and it reminds them of Han, but I don't know which of the two girls I'm guessing the one with the pink hair. Yeah, I'm guessing it's the one on this side also. All right, we follow with the bounty hunters. I love that droid.

I don't know if it's destroyed or a different one in the CISO reel that has a bunch of things looks like a Gundam mech. So looking forward to bounty hunters. They said that one was super action-packed. Yeah.

The bounty hunters. That song of four wings, they have a cool little droid. I had an image for it. I just took it out because there's too much.

I'm sorry I didn't grab the name of all the studio. I'm sorry doing this. I think for this one, if you look at the CISO reel, this is the one with the girls. The droid freaking transference wings.

That's why I love that twin. It's my favorite one because just nuts. By the way, when they said they were making new ones, I was a fun that we didn't get the triplets. I mean, come on.

There's a story there. You can do a story. It was open ended. I love this one.

This one was going to be in Star Wars. Perfection. The birds of paradise. The first image was this trailer.

Very artistic. I'm like, ah, this might be the one that doesn't match with me. And then they show this image. I'll take everything back.

This might be my favorite one. Light side and dark side. The book. The book.

The book. The book. And then finally Black. This, an image for Black and I don't have it here.

I don't know if it leaked a couple of weeks ago, a couple of months. I think so. Yeah, weird stormtroopers. They show, like, I don't know about this one.

I love this image and a little show that they show. I'm like, oh my god, this is nuts. The starfighters, the Thai fighters, everything, the music. I'm like, okay, you got me.

I'm sorry I doubted you, but this looks nuts also. The music gets very prog rock. It's like with a reverse something and then turns into jazz all of a sudden. Like La Leland jazz.

Like, sure. That was amazing. Yeah, so something we know about these stormtroopers. You don't know about the people inside of these stormtroopers.

Their story, mass broke and down. You can see half their faces. So yeah, this seems to be a trip. So this is one that I'm really excited for.

All right. So, all day before, oh, October 29, 2025. So we do get another Star Wars animation project at the end of the year. It's going to be very, there's a lot of stuff still to come out.

I could have sworn they had sent me fourth. So when they set up, 29th I was like, oh. Maybe. No, I don't think last time it's come out my fourth.

But now the other one. I'm not in there. I think. Anything before we go to that Cecil Rio.

And actually, before we talk about the Cecil Rio, let's talk about this new direction. So they came out and said, we have a couple of announcements first that date. Then the Cecil Rio will show and I mean, I'll talk about it. So now this new direction for Star Wars visions, Star Wars visions presents all starting 2026.

Long form narrative still disconnected from Canada. So they can do whatever stories they want. And they're starting with the nice J-Lack. Separate from that second episode we're getting a new story in that universe.

I was not confused. I didn't know if it was going to be one long hour and a half episode. Is it a movie limited a full season? And then someone else posted that they said it's going to be a limited series.

I don't know if that's three, that could be five, it could be a full season and then switch to a different one. So we go. Yeah, Tonya. I had not heard the whole, it's going to be a limited series thing.

But that makes sense. But I asked Tony the film student, like what's this long for me? And he's like, it literally means anything from 30 minutes to a five hour movie. All right.

So limited series can be five, 15 minutes episode. But whatever it is, if we want continuation story, I think they mentioned that. Which is going to be expanded explanation of how the Kyber crystals work in that universe or what all the lights have its worst. So the lightsaber maker, everything.

Again, I'm very, very excited for this. So yeah, looks great. Can't wait for it. And then it was, yeah, we got a little something to show you.

We do have a season real and love how they went. It's not a trailer. It's not a trailer. Dude, what is coming out in the trailer business?

They were like, it's just something we put on kind of like what they showed in the Ahsoka panel that were just like random concept ourselves. Okay. And no, it's a trailer, man. That's a trailer.

That's a trailer. That's a trailer full on. Let's go ahead and give it a watch and then we'll talk about it afterwards. How about mind blown?

This really blew myself. So I was vision is volume three, trailer, see, so real. I have a little path of knowledge. Your connection to the force grows stronger.

It was just like a frog. It's like a frog or let it guide. Let the force guide you. What I was telling Tony is that maybe some of these are not super finished yet.

So we're like, that's why they're saying it's not a trailer. It's a trailer. Oh, it's a trailer. Oh, it's a trailer.

Oh, it's a trailer. Oh, yeah. Oh, we are, too. That makes some new sense.

Oh, it's not a trailer. It's a trailer. Oh, there we go. Oh, it's a trailer.

Oh, there we go. You're at it. Oh, there's a trailer. We got it.

Come on. Now. Oh, I'm going to do it. Go, put it in to me.

Oh, this is it. Yeah. Oh, man. That's so sick.

Kind of Gundam-like. Yeah. Come on. but now this ending.

That lornatee? Looks like, I'll take, I don't do it. I've said it before. I don't care about Star Wars, what if, I don't need Star Wars, what if, just keep giving me visions.

This is why, if you want to expand on these story of Star Wars and not mess with the known canon, this is a way to go. There's no negative to this. Even if a whole season tanks it really doesn't matter. You'll try something new and that's all I wanna say So season 30 just looks awesome All right, and any comments out there before not really something you'll see is just down the street You could take a tour Hey, if you have kids, oh crap now that I think about it My daughter is gonna be 17 or close to 17 at that point going to senior year first off.

Yeah, it's Maybe that's an excuse to go. We're gonna college tour all the way to California I know you don't want to go to USC, but we're calling. Oh, yeah I know I'm not a fan sports wise. I don't know the school.

Yeah, she wants to say Florida I'll say let's go to the other corner of the country. You never know. All right, so there was a big panel We see the only panel I believe that was shown Talking about things in between always kind of cool. They show this traditional shadow puppet art.

Why yank units? I think it was called they did that ending to a Yeah, yeah, that was pretty weird We're sick is all the time that goes behind oh, you gotta appreciate it. Yeah, and I mean this was like fun Oh, it was just I was like, what is happening? This is something that I miss I didn't catch it live.

I just I see in the end And then no, this is too weird. Let me go back. I gotta watch from the beginning and I was able to see It's called Malaysian shadow puppet. Thank you.

I Love that dark theater the sign like huge lights here. It's basic. Yeah, they did a lot of not repeat interviews. They brought the same people back Repeat guess I'm at best.

Yeah, I love and was there for about three different interviews But every time was something different so yeah, I was thinking of past celebrations like we got Like last time around we had the whole cast of Ahsoka there. Obi-Wan was still like people were still reeling from that So we had that cast I think this time around we were a little bit short-handed on people there because they were also promoting the movie But the movie is connected to the show. They were also like starting to be like, hey, that's coming So I mean I get it. It's fine.

Yeah, I was thinking earlier today as I was busy doing your work You have to do when you're a homeowner and it's kind of still bound that we didn't get that 20 year panel for rent To stay here for the first weekend still When I start to think it's not easy to go to Japan for a 30 minute panel or a one hour panel or a 10 minute interview A lot of these people are pretty busy. I know they see really has like three different wishes I know you're going they sign a country star wars. You're gonna make the time That's all I'm gonna say. All right, well, no fish French So I understand if people are busy I know if if Australia's like is really coming back for them or all universal with Whatever is doing over there.

Finn. Maybe don't just bring John boy. I guess maybe okay If you can't get a big three to comment and don't do it for the Revenge of the seed Hayden Christensin was there he showed up like twice I'm sure you can get some of the others you want my Greg I don't know what he's doing if he gets there if you get just you and I hate and then yeah You can make a panel for the whole thing. Yeah, my German maybe didn't want to fly 12 hours So we got to Japan so one thing if you start thinking kind of the difficulties to get there then maybe make sense still bomb about it But what can you do?

Okay, I'm gonna say my piece. I get what you're saying. I get it But I'm thinking for example for the Phantom Manas panel. I don't know if it wasn't there Big Lloyd wasn't there Liam Neeson wasn't there.

It wasn't my Gregor wasn't there. They still did it for for return with the Jedi I'm sure God bless her so wasn't there Harrison for wasn't there Mark Hamill wasn't there George Lucas wasn't there Well, he died So you don't need the stars to be there I'm sorry if you can do those panels without those people you could have done a revenge with the set panel with Hayden Christensin I'm at best Anthony Daniels and I don't know Chiang or someone from Ilem you could have done those things You don't need your cast to be there to celebrate the movies and I know this wasn't very Mando heavy because it's the next movie coming out But this reminded me a lot of those early celebrations Before like Lucas film and like oh people like the prequels where you couldn't find anything Sure related to the prequels and it kind of felt the same way for revenge of the sieve which was weird because it's the universally beloved wrinkle movie and Nothing for the sequel trilogy like I That's my favorite trilogy and I could not find anything related to the sequel trilogy like the badges which were amazing but no nothing Kylo Ren nothing ray related and Doesn't works the 10th anniversary of Lucas film being reborn in a way and they celebrated the 20 and the 20-25th anniversary of 20 anniversary of animation and I don't know. I really think you could have done something they did the whole animation thing without the cast Actually, X scene was the only one who was there So I don't know resistance they did keep resistance out of it for most of it. Oh There you go.

So I I I'm upset about this and I will continue to be 2017 2027 will be the 10th year of the last Jedi if they hit first away because I can't imagine them having last Jedi front and center for that one I was telling Tony would be hilarious if you know Star Wars celebration all last Jedi Screw you fans. We're gonna have a five-hour panel on the live stage No, those are my thoughts like I was very disappointed on how they handled those two movies I think they were not they did not get a representation data certain at all. Okay. I won't talk about revenge on the safe The movie can defend itself.

It doesn't need us to defend itself. No, I'll say watching the all-weekend whole celebration It never crossed my mind. Oh, there's nothing sequel trilogy related But here you talk about and then okay Let me wrap my wrap my mind about it was nothing really the only thing was yes the next movie happens after episode nine And that was it and Reminding us he's been an every movie that's it. Yeah, it does feel weird that they didn't do something to talk about at least the For some weekends makes them because he's done.

Anyway, sorry Well, it's something related to the sequel trilogy so Actors someone from the sequel to really to come out. They had pro-dameron coming to do that 10 years of all them around unfortunately that God, he canceled the last middle of this is I know I said before I'm I basically going back to the moon I for the MC on that's why I think both of them is bigger than moon night So he could have been there for that I hope they don't fall to the same thing that happened applicable to the facility that they can put on the background under Until people started appreciating it. They announced a rainbow with two years ago. I think that's exactly what's happening.

Like honestly, I think that's exactly what's happened If we got the whole Avengers thing and Oscar Isaac was not announced so if he's there, I'm guessing he's a glorified cameo If he skipped on celebration for a glorified cameo, I'm sorry. They're like, what the hell are you doing? Yes, I you probably need a paycheck the movie if the movie can't move on without you being there for five days To shoot sicker dooms that whatever the nice one is I to show it now. I doubt it's their caution day one.

We need you here So it was weird that I got canceled hopefully was and look at some saying Maybe he was sick. Maybe he's afraid to leave the country I don't know I don't need to explain that to me But again, that was everything you were banking on for the 10th anniversary So again, the first time we can is the universally beloved stars movie of that trilogy It was the introduction of Star Wars for a whole new generation. That is a cliche. It's true.

Like you asked my brother He's not the biggest star or something. He's like I remember that day and it was crazy that's never been anything like that. So I Think it's a very disappointing I have two years to make it up for them as we're coming now on to me because I'm the only one I mean, we know about it You'll be funny imagine and then it's all it's last day like Harry right? Oh, yeah, he's really funny.

He started writing now that nice. How is done? I think he lives in LA. So that's a quick walk Bring his book of photographs.

I never thought he's still getting We're starting to do our own celebration What's gonna happen? They got when I came back out. It's always fun when he's there He took all his audition process for Cassian Andorza plus in Mexico City Colofrin. Hey, we're gonna do this ride Rentala studio lighting and everything Story from past years.

Yeah, it's the first time I heard it So it was okay, let's roll to hear it and how rogue one and and there's about characters that you usually don't pay attention to but now they're Real people have to go out there and do something about it Which is what I love about when and I got announced That's why I love about it because we're gonna see from both and from the rebellion and mostly from the Empire Because we don't get to see that the people behind the scenes Especially those first few episodes when zero is trying to get the primo police to do something they're eating noodles not caring That's what I wanted to see on the Empire is I was fun to see that up. That's how the show kind of evolves And then talking this is something I want to highlight this because it's one when people complain rightfully so about Seasons now TV shows taking two out two years to make and we won't get the continuation of how so did Ryan's so power to 27 or late 2026 why does it take two years? We used to get 22 episodes every year blah blah blah It's a different landscape goes goes on to say that every episode that you see 45 minutes is months of work It takes two and a half years to film a season So there's a lot of work behind it. It's impossible basically to do a show like and or and deliver every single year If you want me to stay in on that caliber So I understand why people want it now or more quickly But if you take this into account like it makes sense where it takes a lot I'm gonna use my my F bomb for the day.

That's a fucking stupid comment to say. That's a super super stupid thing to say Yeah, network television they would pump that out and they were recording while the show was It was a very small budget so they could do that if you were a fan of The not cable TV let's say HBO HBO notoriously took a long time to release those Specifically because of that reason and there wasn't you know, it was corporatized But it wasn't that whole thing Content out right now and a good thing engagement so they took even longer like my parents will tell me stories about when the sopranos What's coming out? They would tell like sometimes it would take like a three-year gap and be like here You go and be like what happened in the last episode? You could not go back and check because there wasn't three So and that's why my parents owned the whole sopranos series I would buy the new season because when the new one would Came out we had no idea what happened so we had to watch the last episode so again like Alan is saying that it's already planning season.

It's not already planning It's releasing like a year at more level There's some two I think so in next year. They're gonna try to do it. They have very different shows But the pit had something that no show has had every single episode had more views than the previous one and that's a complete anomaly That's something we have not seen happen. So it makes sense for each of you to be like And also that pit which is a great show we find Different sets it's the same unless they change it on different house with all of us.

There's a story to it Yeah, you don't have to rebuild sets and what is also like the front end is already there. It's the story Let's write the story and all the actors behind it They're also plagiarizing you are so it's fine. That's a joke for anyone in the know of the production of that show But anyway, it's something that when people and it's something that has become more popular this past few months if people just Let's go back to 22 episodes every single year. Give me all the filler core.

I'm cold. Sorry for using that word You can do that with and the rings of power game of thrones any of those shows you can do that I'm for sure so you could but then don't complain your show looks like a sitcom Don't complain that your show does not look like a 500 million dollar move. Yeah, but let's do that then let's let's let's do that By the way, uh, Alan is saying and there comes out on the day of his wedding anniversary. So Oh, yeah I'm finishing up with andra that they go to enter because as the difference between the first day of shooting Rogue one to his last day shooting andra He was very different but at the same time very similar like he was just in awe of what he was seeing being in Star Wars and how all the props and the costumes and He said not being professional and then like on day three saying hey, you're getting paid for this as well They're an act and then andra still being that kid inside the cockpit pushing all the buttons by himself in the game ball and all that stuff So it's one of those guys that he not only loves Star Wars, but loves he's still a kidding side gets to play with all the toys That's what we like Imagine like one day you're doing untitled in the Argentinian movie and the next day you're doing Star Wars with Disney budget Yeah, so that was great.

So it's great. Even though I said we got some repeat guests He always brings something new I saw was an interview with Matt's micha saying I cut just the ending of it I want to go back and watch and like of all the people that show up Matt micha's at the end was he? I think he did a panel and he was he I think he was there taking pictures with people Um, that was so random because the whole bible was like why is this happening and they were like, uh, are you here? Uh, the only thing I got he was asked any memories he had about one he basically thought like yeah, he has some scenes with jean and Or I must say they see really what's uh Skill me.

What's her name? Ray not Ray uh jeanorso. So this is your own. Try this is Jones Jesus Christ But talking more about having scenes with a younger Jesus with the two kids at different ages.

So I like that as a part of every time so I want to tell out That was interesting because I hadn't really thought about it. He's like no we basically they're not sure many things. I'm like, huh, that's true I was there with her for one one scene. Oh, so he has a hologram and then I died.

So yeah, I spent more time with the other ones That's good All right. I think we come to our end of our talk on celebration What a general thoughts on this weekend not just day three biggest surprise biggest news. You already talked about some of the things We wish they would have announced or talked about just final thoughts biggest thing that kind of blew your mind Uh, we don't need to talk so early about 2027, but yeah, no, I I thought it was a very solid star Resilberation they as always they We went in thinking like don't expect anything. It's gonna be and it wasn't it was still fun It was exactly what it was a starware celebration Um, and they still managed to pull the rug from under us and surprise us with a lot of things So I think in those terms it wasn't very successful convention I'm sure the people there had a blast it looked like a very fun Um thing to be at so I'm excited for the the next one whether I'll be there or not I will be paying attention.

That's all awesome. If you be there if you go there, I can't go Send you a radio radio show so you can wear one day Oh, I will thousand percent. Oh, and and by the way, I think next celebration though. We'll be like a big Oh Here you go.

Here you go. Here you go. Here you go. Especially in LA.

You gotta go out and then they have the only pitch in LA the year after that so It's 2028 the Olympics. Yeah. Oh, sorry. This is a little prep for them to see if they can handle everything that's coming I mean the Olympics are like a trillion times bigger than some of you Uh, but I loved it I mentioned the first time that I kind of stayed up and watch everything as it's been going being 13 hours time difference Which was freaking nuts.

Yes, so it's left for seven hours last night and most I slept for about this whole week Now it's gonna be a three hour difference. Like you said either 11 or 12 will start. I'll have the day So it'll be it'll be a lot easier just to be on couch when if we can be there Same as you this is Star Wars celebration I know we're we've been conditioned to expect all big announcements and all this new stuff and trailer trailer We give you a that's later was coming. This is a celebration of Star Wars Every time Star Wars finishes and we get to talk with people that were there It's like the best time ever that they had even if yeah, I didn't make it to a panel who cares I was surrounded by everything People don't get we can the new people that people are there because they're busy doing all this stuff Just in that sense.

It's so great that fans get to share in that experience being there And just like with the with the live stream where you like suddenly oh, that's interesting you do Star Wars bebleeds See a lot of those stories of like I was going to the Soka panel and got distracted with this random booth and suddenly I look at my watch and it was over and they had announced The daughter coming back I missed it because I was doing this fun thing and I think that's what it's about Yes, the announcements are good that helps with the excitement But even without the announcements, it's still like a whole thing and the fact that people You know do everything to go you look at those attendance numbers here after you're just gets bigger So cool awesome. Yeah, I saw people posted this wall of helmets that they have on display over there All the hours they're just looking at this is freaking out and I wouldn't make it to any panel Sometimes people don't get to any of the panel with a lot of reason whatever but there's so much All this stuff to do Do you see the people who rented a booth just to do like a cosplay of ILM in the 70 No, you see that though. They were doing a cosplay and they were playing the people from ILM with the signing the trench run and They just had a post for that. Oh Amazing.

So yeah, so it's hopefully again fingers crossed at some point Will be there hopefully LA if not we'll say in 2029 maybe we'll Or land on So yeah, I love I love watching it. I can't wait for the next one And I'm so surprised at how open they were even with the things they announced like giving us the title for starfighter Giving us a lot of information for our socasis on to giving us trailers for vision trailers for the mall New series we didn't get a lot of new books announced things that we already know at least novels But that's fine. We got some information. So I'm surprised at how open they were with yeah, this is out there Let's see what's going to talk good.

So Can't wait we'll be back in two years to do it again. Maybe in person. Maybe in calcium boy doesn't matter So so always celebration. Thank you to everyone that put on a great show over there All right, let's take a couple of minutes if you don't mind to talk a world between fandoms and dr I watched it today.

I know I was gonna try and watch it tomorrow. I watched a new dr No, make me laugh laughs. Locks earlier about two hours ago. Excuse me.

I love it. It's a great episode Silly serious consequences connecting previous seasons connecting the mystery of this one when he went don't make me laugh. Why? Like motherfucker I love that little thing there with that We are pretty sure bitty Bob with your whatever his name was Mr.

Ring Bing I think I was I In our last review I asked only like do you think they'll die of into the god subplot this season? He was like of course, I'm like, I don't know and like now here you are gods again. Yeah It's no it was a lot of fun like it reminded me a lot of those early matt smith episodes They would turn an episode system random adventure So I was in the trailers and all the emails I saw mr. Ringing I always thought this feels something that the toy maker would do Not that oh I called it.

I just feel like toy maker stuff So I love when oh, this is my life and they connected back to it then all the the marquee fell down and the harbinger How you been here? He gave the story about the gods and I oh, they're still going I was like, oh come on because a lot has leaked for this season Um, and I remember seeing that picture of them in the theater that said harbinger. So I was like, oh, I forgot completely forgot about that. So better.

That's cool. Yeah, no, it's a surprise But for example, I've known Ruby is showing up in the fourth episode for like a year I don't know why but I just I've just known it. It's not a surprise But I I love that uh the relationship between Belinda Chen chandran and the doctor is growing on me. They have a good relationship The doctor just making weird construction.

Yeah, we're gonna put this we gotta land It's gonna throw a hook that we're using like a real take us back to 2025 We might have to stop a little bit here or there. So you just coming away stuff as he goes I love everything we see as phone now. I'm gonna connect it with all the time Oh for something so everything that I saw the gods Yeah, the last phone was um Well, it was with that whole so tech thing. Yeah, so yeah, I really enjoyed this season so far Hopefully it keeps going No, it wasn't solid episode.

I am still clinging to my theory that I think maybe the doctor is forcing Um, but I'm not a safe, but we'll see where that goes. Why do you think that? I'm trying to wrap my brain. I think it feels like he's trying to get her back home Even I only think is that maybe we have to stop a couple of times to make this work That's when I say okay.

Wait, wait, it's all T right? I can't believe why would I think this um because as someone who watch the entire show and Almost one sitting um The doctor is a very very very very toxic person. That's why I think he might be doing this Um, I think he's only so in his toxic ways. We just want to go there I think I might be like Of like Lara I get that vibe that she wants to put some boundaries real quick between her relationship and the doctor And he maybe doesn't want to lose her because he had to leave Uh, Ruby's on the behind maybe that I love not about her like the same pitch as we always get No, we have some adventure.

They'll take you back and she'll be like that sounds cool. No taking home right now And that's encapsulating this episode when they stop and in the movie theater. There's some mystery going on. Oh, that thing works.

Let's go No That was a great doctor moment by the way And we can go as soon as we figure out why that theater has changed. I'm like of course Of course. Yeah, so I love that part. But again, I know I've been enjoying it.

I know there's some rumors that I think even They've said our season three is not there's not official now. So hopefully that doesn't happen I can't say that already like working on it. I don't know. I've seen a couple of interviews I'm like oh, we hope to get season three, but it's not saying still now right now.

It might just be BS All right, that brings an end to a show today. Wait, wait, sorry. Nope. That's not I gotta talk first.

Name my music. There we go Wait, did you see the last one? Dude, that's tonight But did you see that we talk about it? Oh, very I'm just saying that's how it was great.

Uh, last episode one Was awesome. I I'm just I'm saying like we said before I forgot really what happened at the end of season one the little Previously on last episode didn't really tell me everything because I don't know. Yeah, something happened at the end. I have to go back.

Oh, yeah, this is he lied That's all you need to remember. Yeah So It threw me off a little bit the relationship at first because I couldn't figure out what what was the life or what it was I love the The rapids. Oh, sorry. You have the worst case of a part and where you're 19 You know doesn't want to talk to you like every other part out there.

What are you complaining? I was like, let's talk about something real You kill my husband. I'm not deeper than that and I tried to say wait that from season one now that hasn't we haven't seen that Um and the new character the family. I guess she lost her her dad in the fireflies.

I know we're gonna go hunt them down I've been it's been five years. It's all these time jumpers. It's all me off But I like what it's setting I like the new relationship that we're seeing I love that little hey There's people that I've hunted you plus now that part that you think it just clogged with branches It's a little thing coming out and it was fucking freaky that seeing in the supermarket. It was really cool.

That was cool. Yeah Yeah, I was telling Tony that it's interesting because they they made a They made a change where the story begins the day before that story and the game begins So what we were seeing is things that in the game are only hinted at and you see as part of flashbacks later on So that was fun that whole supplement with the roots and the fungus coming out. That's 100% new. I have no idea where that's go Well, we see the trailers.

There's like a whole fight with these are something that's not in the game. So I'm like, okay, interesting Um Yeah, they've changed a lot by the way they As I mentioned, there are things that happen later on in the game that shouldn't happen in this episode that don't happen and I was like That conversation is super important. Why aren't they talking right now? Why is that person walking away?

Like no come back? So we'll see where it goes Who'll be interested in talking to you in a couple of weeks? Huge fan of the game I've never played it to see if those changes You're feeling about them. I'm interested because the one of my favorite things about season one were the changes So right now I'm more like why didn't you do that?

No, because in the in the first season It was very apparent very quickly. Here's like you're gonna make me wait to know how I feel about this So yeah, but yeah, it's gonna be interesting. I can't wait for what's her name the new character the new girl that sorry Abby when she finds them with no she already knows where they are we see that at the end so Like every show is the drama that that matters. I want to see How how that conversation goes especially when any three years out of finds out the light that was told to her So can't wait.

I've seen from other places people saying that that character is basically the female Joel in the way she goes about things So we'll see she is Now she is she would in other different circumstances. She would fit right into this family of two of girl Um, but yeah, Abby. Abby is a character. Yeah, Abby is a character.
