UNKNOWN REGIONS PODCAST: Episode 16 Star Thrones of the Original Trilogy (Part One of a Series!)

If there's anything Star Wars likes it's a THRONE ROOM! So in Part One of our new series we begin by examining these staples of sovereignty in the Original Trilogy. We take a look at development, production, in-universe lore, and we address important issues like how many thrones does one chancellor/emperor really need? Is a chair required to qualify as a "throne room"? On a scale of 1-10 how would we rate each throne room? How many times can I say the word "dais"? So pull up your own seat of power and settle in for the first part of our seemingly random but also inexplicably necessary deep dive series!   Show Note: Here are the reference books I mentioned that were used for this researching this episode. All of which I highly recommend! 1. Star Wars: Complete Locations, excerpts by James Luceno 2. The Making of Star Wars: The Definitive Story Behind the Original Film, by JW Rinzler 3. The Making of Star Wars: Return of the Jedi, by JW Rinzler 4. The Princess Diarist, by Carrie Fisher 5. Star Wars Art: Ralph McQuarrie, by Ralph McQuarrie, Brandon Alinger, Wade Lageose, David Mandel, George Lucas
