SWCP Episode 9: Jon Favreau's Live-Action Series Officially Titled

We've got a lot to cover this week! "The Mandalorian," NYCC announcements, and we're taking YOUR mailbag and LIVE questions!  News -Jon Favreau's series officially titled "The Mandalorian," set photos, directors -Kathleen Kennedy's contract with Lucasfilm has been extended through 2021 -NYCC 2018 releases future slate, including "Alphabet Squadron" by Alexander Freed -Review for "Solo: A Star Wars Story" Novelization  Upcoming Canon Material This Week: -IDW's "Star Wars Adventures" #15 -IDW's "Star Wars Adventures: Tales From Vader's Castle" #2  Mailbag Questions  1.) Jamie Holbeche - Would you like to see 16 or 18 rated Star Wars shows or movies where it could possibly get quite violent and dark? Like in Aftermath: Empire's End when Mister Bones completely cuts the limbs of Norra's captors clean off. I think Benioff and Weiss could potentially make a 16 or 18 rated saga of movies on The Old Republic. Just wondered since there are shows made for kids such as Resistance and Forces of Destiny but there aren't necessarily things that are just adult. But adults could still watch kids shows but kids can't watch adult shows. I don't know, curious what you think :)  2.) Ron Hempburg - Do you think we'll see Obi-Wan Kenobi in episode 9, or maybe Luke's Force ghost? I know Mark Hamill has been signed on to return, so do you think it will be a flashback scene or ghost? Love to hear your opinion.  3.) Danny Boroff - Hey brian love the podcast! Since the Solo novel just came out what is the next novel slated for release? The novels are my favorite form of the new canon. The comics are fun but I don't feel like anything real major happens in them. Cant wait for Ep. IX!  4.) Trevor Larson - First off I am someone who respects that different people have different opinions and different people like different things. Im cool with that. That being said I know you guys like the new canon coming out from disney. I believe its far from perfect. Personally, I love the EU front to back. I dont understand why disney thought it was a a good idea to make another superweapon. It might as well have been a new death star. and then in tlj they have a battering ram based off of the death star. Do you think JJ Abrams will put another Starkiller base in 9? Or do you think the days of superweapons in SW are over? Love to hear your thoughts. Just know that whether I agree with you or not you've picked up a new follower. May the force be with you.
