  Speaker 1: The Force will be with you always.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Hello, and welcome back to another episode of Star Wars Alliance.
• 0:24
  Speaker 2: Of course, I'm your host Clay, and with me like
• 0:28
  Speaker 2: always is Katie.
• 0:32
  Speaker 3: How I got botox today? So I'm like, yeah, like
• 0:37
  Speaker 3: I feel like crap because I got thirty two needles
• 0:39
  Speaker 3: stuck in my head, but also like, hey, migrains gone that.
• 0:45
  Speaker 2: It's it's I feel like it's counterintuitive at some point
• 0:50
  Speaker 2: because thirty two needles going into your head. Yeah, and
• 0:55
  Speaker 2: it's supposed to mitigate migraines. That just like my brain
• 0:59
  Speaker 2: is boggling.
• 1:00
  Speaker 3: And then here here here here, and then like seven
• 1:07
  Speaker 3: back here and then I get like into my shoulders
• 1:11
  Speaker 3: and my jaw.
• 1:12
  Speaker 2: Okay, so so how long does the process take again?
• 1:15
  Speaker 3: For that? About fifteen minutes? Damn the it took about
• 1:23
  Speaker 3: thirty a day because my blood pressure was so low.
• 1:26
  Speaker 3: So she was trying to like keep me on my feet.
• 1:33
  Speaker 3: But like she said, she can do it in about
• 1:35
  Speaker 3: ten minutes, but she takes longer for me, because I.
• 1:40
  Speaker 2: That's not a feat. I would not call that a feat.
• 1:43
  Speaker 2: I would say, hey, you should take longer, like right
• 1:46
  Speaker 2: minute of freaking syringe, like take thirty Well.
• 1:51
  Speaker 3: So it's it's for syringes total, and then there's eight
• 1:55
  Speaker 3: pokes per syringe because it's two hundred units of botox,
• 2:02
  Speaker 3: so it's fifty units per srange math. It's hard.
• 2:09
  Speaker 2: It's the end of the day. I don't even want
• 2:10
  Speaker 2: to do an element. I was like, wait what, I
• 2:13
  Speaker 2: started to think about it. No, not gonna do it, Nope.
• 2:17
  Speaker 2: But yeah, we were here. It's a very slow news week.
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Of course, currently Daredevil is on Disney Plus we are
• 2:27
  Speaker 2: just counting down the days for and or season two mm.
• 2:31
  Speaker 2: And if we would have known it was going to
• 2:34
  Speaker 2: be this short of a news week, we probably would
• 2:39
  Speaker 2: have listened to the sequel to the audible original, The
• 2:43
  Speaker 2: High Republic though, so that might be something that we
• 2:47
  Speaker 2: have to do next week, depending on the news cycle.
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: But yeah, we don't have a whole lot of stuff.
• 2:57
  Speaker 2: I will say some of the bigger highlights is gaming
• 3:01
  Speaker 2: related stuff, so based on the celebration, yeah, rumors and
• 3:08
  Speaker 2: then also cancelations shutting down some stuff, so we'll get
• 3:15
  Speaker 2: to talk about that as well as like Katie also
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: kind of mentioned uh uh celebration scheduling, so we'll talk
• 3:25
  Speaker 2: a little bit about that. But I just want to
• 3:29
  Speaker 2: take a moment, because we're going to have such a
• 3:31
  Speaker 2: short episode. I want to go ahead and say Katie
• 3:35
  Speaker 2: has been seeing it on my Instagram. I have been
• 3:38
  Speaker 2: on a crazy like book purchasing like I don't know
• 3:45
  Speaker 2: if it like gives me some sort of high or
• 3:49
  Speaker 2: it's some sort of addiction. Guys. Uh, I don't even
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: know if buying a kindle would necessarily or any type
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: of like eerie would necessarily save me money because I've
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: seen so many people get lost in the shuffle of
• 4:07
  Speaker 2: buying a e book and then buying the physical copy
• 4:10
  Speaker 2: immediately after. So it's like.
• 4:13
  Speaker 3: Exhibit A, which does which you can't see on camera.
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: Which does remind me, guys, a very exciting news. Katie
• 4:24
  Speaker 2: and I actually got the uh the arc the arc
• 4:32
  Speaker 2: for uh way wait Seeker, Sorry Way Seeker, and uh
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: I think I'm gonna need to take a pause on
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: all my reading to actually jump on that soon.
• 4:47
  Speaker 3: Yes, it's not The embargo for that, guys is April
• 4:51
  Speaker 3: twenty first, so it's right after a celebration, So I'm
• 4:53
  Speaker 3: assuming that there's going to be early copies at the
• 4:56
  Speaker 3: celebration for people to pick up. So just keep that
• 5:03
  Speaker 3: in mind. With how you guys are looking at this book,
• 5:06
  Speaker 3: but our review should be out the twenty first, along
• 5:12
  Speaker 3: with our and or season two premiere review and then
• 5:17
  Speaker 3: our celebration stuff, so all that will be coming out
• 5:20
  Speaker 3: that week.
• 5:22
  Speaker 2: So yeah, I am currently in the beginning chapters. I
• 5:28
  Speaker 2: say beginning chapters, but I think I'm on chapter like
• 5:31
  Speaker 2: seven and or eight of Throng Alliances. I have started
• 5:37
  Speaker 2: to dive into that because I think we are covering
• 5:39
  Speaker 2: that next week.
• 5:41
  Speaker 3: Yep.
• 5:42
  Speaker 2: And again, guys, these are mostly gonna be my thoughts.
• 5:46
  Speaker 2: Katie has been reviewing these there's on this exact same podcast,
• 5:53
  Speaker 2: like she has reviewed it like four times already, so
• 5:59
  Speaker 2: she's gonna be asked me questions about the book, and
• 6:01
  Speaker 2: I'm gonna be giving my thoughts. I already gave my
• 6:05
  Speaker 2: thoughts on the first book Thrown and that was on
• 6:11
  Speaker 2: our last episode. But if you would like to wait,
• 6:14
  Speaker 2: I am splitting them into their own episode that we're
• 6:17
  Speaker 2: going to drop later when we have like some sort
• 6:23
  Speaker 2: of slow week for us to kind of just throw
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: it all together. But yeah, with that, let's go ahead
• 6:31
  Speaker 2: and jump into some of the early news that came
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: this week. Nights of the Old Republic.
• 6:39
  Speaker 3: Yes, this.
• 6:42
  Speaker 2: Right when I think I have forgotten about it, they
• 6:47
  Speaker 2: bring me back in and I keep telling Travis, don't
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: give me hope, don't give me hope, don't do it,
• 6:56
  Speaker 2: and he's over here, like, give me hope, like I like,
• 7:00
  Speaker 2: I will never give up. I will never give up
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: on this, on this game. I hope it never dies.
• 7:06
  Speaker 2: And it's so weird the evolution of this game and
• 7:15
  Speaker 2: how it has and I'm talking about the remake of course,
• 7:19
  Speaker 2: how it has like hung on by a thread and
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: has been able to stay alive. According to Saber Interactive,
• 7:30
  Speaker 2: everything that we have talked about is still in development.
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: We will share information on upcoming games when we have
• 7:38
  Speaker 2: something cool to share. And but Travis made a good point.
• 7:42
  Speaker 2: This has been in development for almost four years. How
• 7:48
  Speaker 2: can you not have something cool to share?
• 7:51
  Speaker 3: Yeah, yeah, again, I don't really understand the whole gaming
• 7:58
  Speaker 3: premise that like, uh, it's it's wild how long development
• 8:04
  Speaker 3: can take on some things. Just speaking from experience, not
• 8:09
  Speaker 3: necessarily game related, but just software development in general, it
• 8:13
  Speaker 3: can just take a lot longer than some people expect.
• 8:16
  Speaker 3: But that also, I've said it before and I'll sure
• 8:21
  Speaker 3: I'll say it again. It blows my mind. How these
• 8:23
  Speaker 3: people can be like, oh, yeah, this is coming on
• 8:26
  Speaker 3: this date, but or like, we have this in development,
• 8:31
  Speaker 3: but y'all development takes so long.
• 8:34
  Speaker 2: Like there has been a long there has been a
• 8:37
  Speaker 2: very big debate in the gaming community. Katie and I
• 8:42
  Speaker 2: almost feel like it almost got there with movies, but
• 8:47
  Speaker 2: they've kind of course corrected with how they market movies
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: and everything else. But there has been a forever disagreement
• 8:54
  Speaker 2: and debate when it comes to fans of the gaming community.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: Some people want to know, like, if there's an announcement,
• 9:05
  Speaker 2: give us the announcement. It doesn't matter if all you
• 9:08
  Speaker 2: have is concept are give us the announcement. And there's
• 9:11
  Speaker 2: some people that are saying, hey, don't make the announcement
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: until you're like fifty five to seventy five percent done
• 9:21
  Speaker 2: with the game. So that way marketing can be very
• 9:27
  Speaker 2: fluid and more present than that of just saying, hey,
• 9:33
  Speaker 2: by the way, we are working on this game, and
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: then four years later, hey, that's still in the works.
• 9:40
  Speaker 2: We're still working on it though we have nothing to share.
• 9:43
  Speaker 2: Maybe next year and then next year comes, Oh, here
• 9:46
  Speaker 2: is the character model, and you're just like, I guess
• 9:50
  Speaker 2: I should be happy because at least now we have something. Now, see,
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: after four years, they should have some sort of like
• 10:03
  Speaker 2: some sort of cut scene. It doesn't need like the
• 10:06
  Speaker 2: mechanics of the game. I can see being like, hey,
• 10:11
  Speaker 2: this might be a little too choppy. We're not entirely
• 10:14
  Speaker 2: sure how we feel about this. Yet when you are
• 10:18
  Speaker 2: filming cut scenes, it's like filming an animated movie, like yep,
• 10:23
  Speaker 2: you should be able to steal something from there to
• 10:26
  Speaker 2: create some sort of, you know, another teaser, because we
• 10:30
  Speaker 2: still have the nights of the old public teaser with
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: revenue yep and blowing up the lightsaber coming out of
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: the shadows and all that. Like you can have more
• 10:44
  Speaker 2: than that. I know you have to, Like it's been
• 10:47
  Speaker 2: four years.
• 10:48
  Speaker 3: It really doesn't make sense to me, how because you
• 10:54
  Speaker 3: want people to have the hype for these video games,
• 10:58
  Speaker 3: and so announcing something four to six years prior to release,
• 11:04
  Speaker 3: it's just wild to me, Like I like it. When
• 11:10
  Speaker 3: Lego Skywalker Saga got delayed so badly it got delayed
• 11:14
  Speaker 3: two years, it like went out the window for me
• 11:18
  Speaker 3: and I was like, oh, yeah, this is coming, Like
• 11:20
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna play it. But then when you're so disappointed
• 11:24
  Speaker 3: by how things are it's the end of the day.
• 11:28
  Speaker 3: And it's like you had such a good model for
• 11:32
  Speaker 3: your previous Lego Star Wars games, but then you just
• 11:36
  Speaker 3: screwed it up kind of thing. And but you spent
• 11:39
  Speaker 3: two extra years on this game for that. I can't
• 11:43
  Speaker 3: even imagine, like actual video games, like Matt is like
• 11:47
  Speaker 3: in like Call of Duty right now, and I'm like,
• 11:50
  Speaker 3: I don't understand why this is a thing, but like, sure, see,
• 11:55
  Speaker 3: I think.
• 11:56
  Speaker 2: It's a little different when it comes to those type
• 11:58
  Speaker 2: of online games because there is an expectation of, hey,
• 12:03
  Speaker 2: there's gonna be an expansion or a new game every
• 12:06
  Speaker 2: year or every other year. So that way, those gamers
• 12:10
  Speaker 2: are always consuming content, always lining EA's pockets. It's like, hey,
• 12:16
  Speaker 2: it's just always coming in. Whereas games like Knights of
• 12:20
  Speaker 2: the Old Republic, it's not going to be an online
• 12:23
  Speaker 2: service game. It is going to be a one player
• 12:27
  Speaker 2: game that is heavily story based, and those do tend
• 12:34
  Speaker 2: to take longer. I'm not going to say they haven't,
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: but I think what And it's so funny because recently
• 12:44
  Speaker 2: I've started to get back into my childhood and recently
• 12:49
  Speaker 2: started watching wrestling again, and I'm starting to learn all
• 12:52
  Speaker 2: these newer terms and kind of learning how the wrestling
• 12:55
  Speaker 2: world works. And Travis Snell, I know you're going to
• 12:58
  Speaker 2: be listening to this hopefully and help me if I'm
• 13:03
  Speaker 2: getting this wrong, and correct me so I can make
• 13:05
  Speaker 2: a correction next show. But when there's certain events in
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: wrestling and like you don't really know what's gonna happen,
• 13:15
  Speaker 2: and then like a wrestler comes out when nobody expect
• 13:18
  Speaker 2: them to they and like the crowd goes like super
• 13:23
  Speaker 2: wild and they're like, oh my god, that's called a pop, Like, hey,
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: we really got the crowd to pop. And I feel
• 13:30
  Speaker 2: like in the gaming world, that's what some developers really
• 13:36
  Speaker 2: want out of their announcements at some of these game
• 13:40
  Speaker 2: award shows, because when it comes to the game awards,
• 13:45
  Speaker 2: like the actual meaningful award shows that go to the actors,
• 13:52
  Speaker 2: the developers, the character designers, like all of like basically
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: the oscars of the game, those are smaller and a
• 14:01
  Speaker 2: lot of people don't talk about them. A lot of
• 14:04
  Speaker 2: people talk about the game awards, which is basically a
• 14:09
  Speaker 2: huge advertisement for games that are going to be coming
• 14:12
  Speaker 2: out in the future because they pay so much money,
• 14:17
  Speaker 2: just like how they do in like a Super Bowl
• 14:19
  Speaker 2: to have their trailer at that award show, which.
• 14:23
  Speaker 3: Is at all but.
• 14:27
  Speaker 2: But it's a live show, so you're gonna have an
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: entire arena pop at the sight of Red Lightsaber when
• 14:36
  Speaker 2: it comes onto the screen with that's the Old Republic, right,
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: So it kind of hurts the brand, but at the
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: same time, it's the Oh, but it'll be worth it
• 14:49
  Speaker 2: when we finally get to announce it type of thing.
• 14:52
  Speaker 4: All right, y'all, we're gonna hit our first ad break
• 14:54
  Speaker 4: and we will be right back in three two one.
• 14:59
  Speaker 2: I have this like push and pull towards this, Like
• 15:03
  Speaker 2: I have a love hate relationship with these types of
• 15:06
  Speaker 2: games because I know, hey, taking this long couldn't mean
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: And this is me just being like super hopeful of like, hey,
• 15:19
  Speaker 2: they're taking their time, they don't want to mess this up. Yeah,
• 15:23
  Speaker 2: they are really caring about this game, rather than just
• 15:28
  Speaker 2: pushing it out there and just being like, yeah, you know,
• 15:30
  Speaker 2: it's just another remake. People will just play it just
• 15:33
  Speaker 2: to play it and whatever.
• 15:35
  Speaker 3: Right, Yeah, And that's that's the hope, that's the dream.
• 15:40
  Speaker 3: But I guess we'll just have to see.
• 15:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah. Yeah. In other gaming news, we have Star wars
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: Hunters Oh my gosh, here is my shock face.
• 15:56
  Speaker 3: Oh no, so shocks.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: Star wars Hunters will be shutting down later this year,
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: and that's literally the gift that I shared with Katie
• 16:08
  Speaker 2: when she shared this in our Star Wars Alliance chat.
• 16:12
  Speaker 2: Star Wars Hunters will officially be shutting down on October first,
• 16:15
  Speaker 2: twenty twenty five. The game's final update will come on
• 16:18
  Speaker 2: April fifteenth, which will bring a new playable character for
• 16:22
  Speaker 2: players to enjoy. Eight months before closing its doors, there
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: just wasn't a lot of hype around this game.
• 16:34
  Speaker 3: There was three years ago.
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: Yeah, when when again, when the announcement was there, when
• 16:43
  Speaker 2: there was this promise of what it could have been,
• 16:47
  Speaker 2: and then they decided, Hey, I think we can actually
• 16:51
  Speaker 2: turn this into just a quote unquote money maker, free
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: to play, you know, cash grab of a hey battle pass,
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: battle pass, you know, buy weapons by characters type of thing,
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: which Katie, I've said this to you plenty of times
• 17:10
  Speaker 2: throughout the last few years. Gamers are getting smarter and
• 17:14
  Speaker 2: they understand, hey, we're spending more money on games that
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: aren't very much fulfilling for us. This is just to
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: pass the time, and you're asking us to spend hundreds
• 17:29
  Speaker 2: of dollars every single year to play the same game
• 17:32
  Speaker 2: all over and over and over again.
• 17:34
  Speaker 3: Yeap, and.
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: Excuse me. And we've learned, we've we've learned from our mistakes,
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: and we're tired of spending all the money, and so
• 17:47
  Speaker 2: that's why go ahead.
• 17:49
  Speaker 3: And I actually played this one for a little bit
• 17:52
  Speaker 3: because like I played like Injustice too on my phone
• 17:56
  Speaker 3: and stuff, and Hunters had a phone app, so I
• 17:59
  Speaker 3: was like, you know what, like let me try it
• 18:02
  Speaker 3: kind of thing. It really wasn't that intuitive. It lived
• 18:06
  Speaker 3: on the battle pass regime kind of thing, and it
• 18:13
  Speaker 3: just wasn't super fun, like it had like your goals
• 18:17
  Speaker 3: for the day, but then you had to go into
• 18:19
  Speaker 3: battle for those, obviously with it being the battle pass one.
• 18:23
  Speaker 3: And it's not something that I could just see myself
• 18:26
  Speaker 3: playing consistently, so I ended up deleting it. I'm not surprised.
• 18:31
  Speaker 3: I saw somebody say that the game was announce from
• 18:37
  Speaker 3: the time the game was announced to the time it
• 18:40
  Speaker 3: was made available worldwide, that was longer than how long
• 18:46
  Speaker 3: it's been online or how long it will have been online.
• 18:50
  Speaker 2: I mean, which isn't much of a surprise. I can't
• 18:52
  Speaker 2: even remember the name of There was recently a game
• 18:58
  Speaker 2: that came out on PlayStation and I think it was
• 19:05
  Speaker 2: online for less than two weeks and then immediately died.
• 19:13
  Speaker 2: It's but it's again, it's the way that these companies
• 19:17
  Speaker 2: think that they can just you know, copy and paste
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: all of the other successful games in the same formula,
• 19:24
  Speaker 2: and we're just gonna say, hey, I've already been playing
• 19:29
  Speaker 2: this type of game. I don't want to go out
• 19:32
  Speaker 2: and pay just as much to play another game that's
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: exactly like it.
• 19:38
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna go ahead and lead us into our like
• 19:42
  Speaker 3: one of our other topics, but like the Wayseeker Special
• 19:45
  Speaker 3: Editions and Goldborough, I know the same thing because Clay
• 19:53
  Speaker 3: asked us in our chat was like, I don't feel
• 19:55
  Speaker 3: like sprayed Edges are special anymore. Yeah, they are because
• 19:59
  Speaker 3: they can make you fifteen extra dollars for the book.
• 20:03
  Speaker 3: But Fourth Wing kind of did it and was like, hey,
• 20:07
  Speaker 3: there's only one edition of it. We sold out of it.
• 20:10
  Speaker 3: Now you don't get any and now it's becoming super
• 20:13
  Speaker 3: trendy because originally sprayed edges were just one solid color.
• 20:17
  Speaker 3: There really wasn't any extra detail or anything to it.
• 20:21
  Speaker 3: And now I mean these two books, yeah, they're not
• 20:27
  Speaker 3: trendy or like, they're not special, but they still look
• 20:31
  Speaker 3: super cute. Like here's the Inkstone book if I can
• 20:38
  Speaker 3: remember to click the page with Vernestra's tattoo on the side.
• 20:45
  Speaker 3: And here is the the hardcovered design with the light whip.
• 20:51
  Speaker 3: And then we also have Goldsborough's with the operash on
• 20:58
  Speaker 3: the side, and then a very nice like I think
• 21:04
  Speaker 3: this is her ship maybe with the lightning on the cover,
• 21:09
  Speaker 3: like it looks super cool. Obviously I'm not picking these
• 21:15
  Speaker 3: up at this point. More power to you if you are.
• 21:19
  Speaker 3: Inkstone and Goldsborough do a really good job with their
• 21:21
  Speaker 3: shipping they are in the UK, but their customer service
• 21:27
  Speaker 3: does really well with at least for me, they've done
• 21:32
  Speaker 3: really well with us shipping and trying to find your
• 21:36
  Speaker 3: package and whatnot. So and.
• 21:40
  Speaker 2: The way that I see that is again, you know,
• 21:43
  Speaker 2: I've I've gone onto this, you know, high of like
• 21:46
  Speaker 2: buying all these books, and I found myself on Bookstagram
• 21:52
  Speaker 2: and book talk and I'm seeing all these people show
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: off all of their beautiful books. I'm not going to
• 21:56
  Speaker 2: say that they aren't beautiful, but in my mind, when
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: I see something like this, I think of it as
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: a special edition. So when you and the only thing
• 22:08
  Speaker 2: that I can really equate it to because the only
• 22:11
  Speaker 2: really thing that I have bought that has been a
• 22:14
  Speaker 2: special edition of something has either been a video game
• 22:17
  Speaker 2: or a movie. You buy a special edition of a
• 22:21
  Speaker 2: four K Blu ray, you know, or a four K DVD,
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: and you have a special case with it. Cool. I
• 22:35
  Speaker 2: know that I want to buy that specifically for the
• 22:38
  Speaker 2: movie that it's for, because I really like that movie.
• 22:46
  Speaker 2: When I see somebody that has all of the sprayed
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: edges of every single book, it's either Okay, you have
• 22:58
  Speaker 2: a really cool edished for these things, and okay, you
• 23:01
  Speaker 2: kind of like the aesthetic, but like at the same time,
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: like can all of your books be that special to you?
• 23:11
  Speaker 2: Like it's every single book that you were buying the
• 23:14
  Speaker 2: five out of five review? Is it the Tenetta ten?
• 23:18
  Speaker 3: Well? And like for me, so, I, oh, good job, Chris,
• 23:25
  Speaker 3: we put something relevant in the chat for us. Sorry,
• 23:31
  Speaker 3: we'll get to that in a second. So for me,
• 23:34
  Speaker 3: I picked up the special the sprayed edges for my
• 23:40
  Speaker 3: books for Fourth Wing because I was like, okay, cool.
• 23:44
  Speaker 3: I picked up the sprayed edges for Shadow of the
• 23:47
  Speaker 3: Sithe because we had read that one already and I
• 23:51
  Speaker 3: was like, I would like a special edition.
• 23:53
  Speaker 2: Yeah, word this.
• 23:56
  Speaker 3: I had picked up the special editions for Phase one
• 24:00
  Speaker 3: of the High Republic because I thought the covers looked
• 24:03
  Speaker 3: cool and I wanted to be able to display them.
• 24:06
  Speaker 3: So it's stuff like that where most people on booksta
• 24:10
  Speaker 3: gram are hunting books because they're trophy collectors, and I'm
• 24:16
  Speaker 3: gonna recommend a bookstro grammer that I personally love. I
• 24:21
  Speaker 3: relate to a lot of what she says. It's entirely
• 24:24
  Speaker 3: bonkers on Instagram and she has a sub stack, but
• 24:28
  Speaker 3: she talks about how consumerism has affected book talk and
• 24:35
  Speaker 3: books to gram so much that it's just gotten wild
• 24:42
  Speaker 3: and it's not necessarily the publisher's fault for taking advantage
• 24:47
  Speaker 3: of people and like hopping on to trends, but it's
• 24:53
  Speaker 3: also like, hey, we as consumers need to be smarter
• 24:57
  Speaker 3: about what we're consuming, and oh, hey, maybe you wan
• 25:01
  Speaker 3: to get a special edition of each book so it
• 25:03
  Speaker 3: looks better on your shelf, but don't go then get
• 25:08
  Speaker 3: five hundred copies, Like there's for the Fourth Wing and
• 25:12
  Speaker 3: Iron Flame books, there's like seven special editions with different
• 25:16
  Speaker 3: sprayed edges. I saw that, Yeah, there's like the Australian
• 25:21
  Speaker 3: version has different sprayed edges, the German one has different
• 25:25
  Speaker 3: sprayed edges.
• 25:26
  Speaker 2: France, Like I saw somebody recently just scroll I was
• 25:30
  Speaker 2: scrolling and they're like, oh, you know, I just found
• 25:33
  Speaker 2: my my japan version of this, and my Australian one
• 25:42
  Speaker 2: is coming in the mail in a couple of days
• 25:44
  Speaker 2: or whatever, and I guess to reach their own because
• 25:51
  Speaker 2: for me, in that case, what I would say is, Okay,
• 25:57
  Speaker 2: if you love Fourth Wing that much, you do you right.
• 26:04
  Speaker 2: And the reason why I say that is because I'm
• 26:08
  Speaker 2: pretty sure I own three copies of Princess Brett. I
• 26:14
  Speaker 2: own the fifteenth anniversary, the twentieth anniversary, and then the
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: regular DVD, and I so I can't be super judgmental
• 26:26
  Speaker 2: on that. But for me, it's only going to be
• 26:30
  Speaker 2: Princess Bride. I'm not gonna do that with like all
• 26:34
  Speaker 2: of my DVDs because not all of them are my favorite, you.
• 26:40
  Speaker 3: Know, right. But in like this case, like Goldsborough has
• 26:43
  Speaker 3: been putting out special editions for Star Wars for almost
• 26:47
  Speaker 3: five years now, I think so people are specifically getting
• 26:51
  Speaker 3: the Goldsboro book for their shelf, not anything else.
• 26:58
  Speaker 2: So me being in now in the publishing world and
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: seeing a little bit of how things are played out.
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: I know that Goldsborough themselves have to go to ping
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: On a Random House in this case, and say we
• 27:22
  Speaker 2: want another Sprayed Edge, and they are going to pay
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: out of pocket to ping On Random House and say, hey,
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: for this special edition, we're going to pay this much
• 27:37
  Speaker 2: to go get printed and do all of these nice things.
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: So they're paying out of pocket for all of this themselves.
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: But the problem that I have, and what you're saying,
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: is that they're doing it for every book. I don't
• 27:51
  Speaker 2: think it needs to be every book. Of course, it's
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: the way that they quote unquote make money because of
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: course there's going to be those trophy collectors and people
• 28:01
  Speaker 2: who want the special editions. Guys, they're not special editions.
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: If every single one of them is like it, there's
• 28:09
  Speaker 2: nothing special about it anymore. It needs that thing that
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: makes it special. And so I would suggest if anybody
• 28:21
  Speaker 2: at Penguin Random House is listening to this right now,
• 28:26
  Speaker 2: or anybody at Goldsborough for that matter, I would legitimately
• 28:34
  Speaker 2: look at the initiatives that Star Wars is having and
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: the books that they are releasing and saying, hey, which
• 28:43
  Speaker 2: one is going to be the moneymaker? Or hey, out
• 28:47
  Speaker 2: of all the high republic books, like what's the first book,
• 28:53
  Speaker 2: what's the climax of the book, and what's the ending
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: of the book, Because those are going to be the
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: pinnacles and everybody's going to gravitate towards those are going
• 29:02
  Speaker 2: to be the ones that need the special editions.
• 29:04
  Speaker 3: Right, But the term special edition has lost its meaning,
• 29:10
  Speaker 3: for this is my trophy copy. This is the thing
• 29:14
  Speaker 3: that I will collect for everything. Now it's just another
• 29:18
  Speaker 3: version of the way the book's being published realistically, and
• 29:22
  Speaker 3: you're paying more money for the sprayed edges. I'm going
• 29:25
  Speaker 3: to disagree with you on hey, Like I don't want
• 29:28
  Speaker 3: to collect every single one, like I'm collecting all the
• 29:32
  Speaker 3: special editions for Like, I'm not saying I'm collecting every edition.
• 29:37
  Speaker 3: I'm collecting a sprayed edge copy of every book a
• 29:41
  Speaker 3: fourth way, Like that's just what's happening. I don't care
• 29:44
  Speaker 3: if I haven't read the book yet, Like I'm going
• 29:46
  Speaker 3: to be doing that now. If these books for Inkstone
• 29:53
  Speaker 3: and Goldsborough came out after I had read the book,
• 29:58
  Speaker 3: like maybe it would be a different conversation on me
• 30:00
  Speaker 3: picking up some of these versions, but like I picked
• 30:04
  Speaker 3: up conversions, I picked up Shadow of Sith, like, oh,
• 30:09
  Speaker 3: and I do have Cataclysm because I was trying to
• 30:11
  Speaker 3: pick up a special edition version of every High Republic
• 30:14
  Speaker 3: book because I had done that with Face one. Yeah,
• 30:20
  Speaker 3: but then they really like I didn't want to.
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: They weren't doing spray edges in phase one. They were
• 30:26
  Speaker 2: doing covers, right, yeah.
• 30:29
  Speaker 3: So they changed to sending them. I think that's when
• 30:32
  Speaker 3: they started sending them to Goldsborough. Is they stopped doing
• 30:34
  Speaker 3: the out of print for Higher Republic and then sent
• 30:36
  Speaker 3: it to Goldsborough and it was like, oh popular. So
• 30:40
  Speaker 3: then it just kind of continued.
• 30:42
  Speaker 4: We're gonna go into our second ad break and we'll
• 30:46
  Speaker 4: be right back.
• 30:48
  Speaker 2: It's it's also just like you said, consumerism and like
• 30:53
  Speaker 2: because again I'm even thinking about all the versions of
• 30:58
  Speaker 2: uh Brendan Sander sends like Cosmir verse stuff and there's
• 31:03
  Speaker 2: so many different prints of like I saw that, there's
• 31:07
  Speaker 2: like an entire wave of nothing but white trade paperbacks
• 31:12
  Speaker 2: and hardcovers and they look so good and I'm like, God,
• 31:15
  Speaker 2: damn it, why don't I have that? So like I
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: get it. I get you want the new shiny thing
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: you want them, thing that looks good. I get it.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: These books that we're talking about are gonna be on
• 31:29
  Speaker 2: a shelf. They're gonna be looked at not only by you,
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: but if you ever have anybody come visit your house
• 31:37
  Speaker 2: you want something esthetically pleasing. I totally understand.
• 31:41
  Speaker 3: I can only imagine what people come to my house
• 31:45
  Speaker 3: and say about walking into my library and going like,
• 31:50
  Speaker 3: oh my gosh, this is a buttload of Star Wars books,
• 31:53
  Speaker 3: Like I can't only imagine, like, oh, it's gotta be
• 31:58
  Speaker 3: so funny. So yeah, they're gonna end up on a shelf,
• 32:05
  Speaker 3: They're gonna end up well loved. And this is a
• 32:10
  Speaker 3: trend that's just here to stay stick around for a
• 32:13
  Speaker 3: little bit.
• 32:14
  Speaker 5: So yeah, I'm kind of curious what the next big
• 32:22
  Speaker 5: thing will be, though, like because.
• 32:28
  Speaker 2: I do kind of like I remember that I missed
• 32:32
  Speaker 2: out on uh Light of the Jedi and the Rising Storm,
• 32:41
  Speaker 2: but you would share the link with the Falling Star,
• 32:46
  Speaker 2: and I were able to get that one. I was
• 32:48
  Speaker 2: able to get that one because I still have the
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: beanie that it came with. Amberlyn wears that beanie all
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: the time and I just love it because it's in
• 32:57
  Speaker 2: big letters. It just as high republic. So when it
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: comes to the sprayed edges, like a part of me
• 33:09
  Speaker 2: looks at it and I'm like, Okay, that would be
• 33:12
  Speaker 2: kind of cool to have. But the thing that turns
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: me off about it so much is that I'm seeing
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: sprayed edges everywhere. That's the literally the only thing that
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: turns me off to it is the fact that I
• 33:23
  Speaker 2: see it more often than not.
• 33:26
  Speaker 3: I think it's a distinctive trend. I actually really like
• 33:32
  Speaker 3: the sprayed edges. If, like, if Inkstone and Goldsborough weren't
• 33:37
  Speaker 3: in the UK, I would probably buy the sprayed edges
• 33:40
  Speaker 3: version more than I would to traditional hardcover, just being honest,
• 33:44
  Speaker 3: because like I take the dust jackets off the books, Like,
• 33:50
  Speaker 3: I'm not a dust jacket person. I've never been a
• 33:52
  Speaker 3: dust jacket person. I have a bunch of Book of
• 33:54
  Speaker 3: the month books have no dust jacket on them, Like,
• 33:57
  Speaker 3: I just don't like it. So to me, the sprayed
• 34:00
  Speaker 3: edges give it more of a glossy finish that stays
• 34:05
  Speaker 3: with the actual cover, with stays intact with the book,
• 34:08
  Speaker 3: because I feel like if I try to read a
• 34:10
  Speaker 3: book with the dust jacket on, the dust jackets just
• 34:13
  Speaker 3: gonna get ruined, So why would I leave it on
• 34:15
  Speaker 3: the book? And then if I take it off the book,
• 34:18
  Speaker 3: then I just lose it. So I like the sprayed edges,
• 34:22
  Speaker 3: And I know some people they I have seen this
• 34:29
  Speaker 3: where people will just turn the books around and they
• 34:33
  Speaker 3: know exactly where it is in the order, So I
• 34:35
  Speaker 3: feel like sprayed edges can make that look more creative.
• 34:38
  Speaker 3: Plus I watched a lot of home improvement shows. That's
• 34:40
  Speaker 3: probably where I've seen it more is because they don't
• 34:43
  Speaker 3: want to give you They don't want to give books
• 34:46
  Speaker 3: the credit on screen and like pay like a copyright
• 34:50
  Speaker 3: or whatever, so they turn them around and stuff. And
• 34:54
  Speaker 3: I just find that funny, like sprayed edges, Like what
• 34:57
  Speaker 3: are you gonna do about that kind of thing?
• 35:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I again, I think that we started this conversation
• 35:07
  Speaker 2: with it being a little bit of a negative. We've
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: kind of talked ourselves out of it, but like you.
• 35:12
  Speaker 3: Were negative, I am okay with it.
• 35:15
  Speaker 2: Just and I think more so for our audience, I
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: think that you need to know that always remember that
• 35:26
  Speaker 2: these books will always be available at either not going
• 35:30
  Speaker 2: on hopefully your local libraries if you can't afford it,
• 35:35
  Speaker 2: but you can always support local business. If you have
• 35:39
  Speaker 2: a a bookstore that is local to your town or city,
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: go there before you go to Barnes and Noble, and
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: then go to Barnes and Noble before you go to Amazon,
• 35:52
  Speaker 2: because literally, Barnes and Noble is the only large retailer
• 35:58
  Speaker 2: that is keeping Amazon from solely taking over the book industry.
• 36:03
  Speaker 2: So just gonna put that out there. I just recently
• 36:11
  Speaker 2: pre ordered all of the rest of Phase three books
• 36:17
  Speaker 2: at a bookstore that like, I just looked it up
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: and I was like, oh, you know, I'll pre order
• 36:23
  Speaker 2: from here, local bookstore. I had no idea. It's literally
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: four minutes away. I could walk there, so I was like,
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: holy crap. And I paid for shipping, and I'm like,
• 36:34
  Speaker 2: oh no, I'm gonna call them and be like, I
• 36:37
  Speaker 2: could literally be in your front door in less than
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: five minutes. I don't want to pay for shipping. But yeah,
• 36:46
  Speaker 2: support local businesses and all of that great stuff with
• 36:51
  Speaker 2: these spraight edges, like Katie said, a lot of the stuff,
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: especially with Star Wars, it's gonna be overseas. It's gonna
• 36:58
  Speaker 2: be more think about your wallet before you think about
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: Star Wars, because you can get these books at the
• 37:07
  Speaker 2: quote unquote normal price range. It may not have the
• 37:12
  Speaker 2: spray edges, but just decide if it's worth it is
• 37:16
  Speaker 2: my thing is what.
• 37:17
  Speaker 3: I'm certain that if that's your thing, by all means,
• 37:21
  Speaker 3: let it be your thing. Yeah, there are worse habits
• 37:25
  Speaker 3: in the world.
• 37:27
  Speaker 2: That is the truth. That's all right. I always told
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: me about me buying all these books last weekend.
• 37:34
  Speaker 3: I always laugh at my mom because I was at
• 37:37
  Speaker 3: a friend's house and she was like, what are you doing?
• 37:40
  Speaker 3: Like why are you there? Why aren't you in your apartment?
• 37:43
  Speaker 3: When I was in college, and I was like, I'm
• 37:45
  Speaker 3: at a friend's house. I'm doing drugs and having an
• 37:48
  Speaker 3: orgy and do you know me? Like I am the
• 37:53
  Speaker 3: least person to do. And she was like, I cantinue
• 37:57
  Speaker 3: into rehab and I was like, I had a friend house,
• 38:00
  Speaker 3: I'm studying for an exam. We have tomorrow. Goodbye, Like
• 38:07
  Speaker 3: there are worse things that you could be doing that.
• 38:09
  Speaker 3: She never asked me where.
• 38:11
  Speaker 2: I was at again after that, but I told abby
• 38:16
  Speaker 2: the same thing. She's like, did you get in a food?
• 38:19
  Speaker 2: I was like, probably not. She's like, and and the
• 38:22
  Speaker 2: thing is I donate plasma and then I use that
• 38:26
  Speaker 2: money for donating plasma, either for lunch at work or
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: to buy video games. And now, because video games are
• 38:35
  Speaker 2: so damn expensive, I'm like, I'm gonna buy books. I'm
• 38:38
  Speaker 2: gonna get four books for the price of one video game.
• 38:41
  Speaker 2: So I think that's a better trade off than anything.
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: And I told you, now, you have.
• 38:48
  Speaker 3: To just have a rule where you don't buy a
• 38:51
  Speaker 3: new book until you finish one of the books that you.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: Have, which is why I love the fact that I
• 38:59
  Speaker 2: found out what no vella's were. I had no idea
• 39:03
  Speaker 2: that that there was thinner, smaller books that I could
• 39:08
  Speaker 2: that are like fifteen to twenty dollars, and I'm like,
• 39:11
  Speaker 2: holy crap, I can finish these off and then buy
• 39:14
  Speaker 2: a new book. Now, that's that's the thing. So I
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: have the three Star Wars books, which were The Uh
• 39:25
  Speaker 2: Into the Light, Valiant, val Valiant Vow, and then Trials
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: of the Jedi. Those are the three that I pre ordered.
• 39:37
  Speaker 2: Cost me a total of seventy two dollars to pre
• 39:39
  Speaker 2: order those three books and then buying four books and
• 39:46
  Speaker 2: then having one being sent. So I told I technically
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: bought five books, so a total of eight books in
• 39:51
  Speaker 2: the last week. And I'm like okay, and I already
• 39:55
  Speaker 2: had Fourth Wing just sitting there and need to finish
• 40:00
  Speaker 2: Thrown Alliances. I need to finish Way of the Kings
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: from Brandon Sanderson. That one's gonna take me like five
• 40:10
  Speaker 2: years to finish. Uh. But the The Murder Bought Diaries
• 40:16
  Speaker 2: is a novella and I also saw that. Uh, I
• 40:22
  Speaker 2: guess because I use audible. I never purchased the like
• 40:28
  Speaker 2: actual audible like audiobook, but it like is letting me
• 40:32
  Speaker 2: listen to it for free. I don't know if like
• 40:33
  Speaker 2: why it's letting me which one it's Uh, it's The
• 40:39
  Speaker 2: Murder Bought Diaries. I think it's under like a different title.
• 40:43
  Speaker 3: Actually it's also.
• 40:46
  Speaker 2: Read is the actual title, but uh, it's letting me
• 40:51
  Speaker 2: listen into it for free, and it's three hours long.
• 40:53
  Speaker 2: So I'm like, I'll probably listen to that like over
• 40:56
  Speaker 2: the weekend.
• 40:57
  Speaker 3: Yeah.
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so I'm gonna get a lot of reading in
• 41:02
  Speaker 2: this year. But we did read something this week.
• 41:09
  Speaker 3: Well, first, we have the budget for the man.
• 41:14
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, the news that Chris shared in our chat. Yes, yes, yes,
• 41:21
  Speaker 2: Mandalorian Grogu has a budget, has official budget. According to Collider, Kay,
• 41:27
  Speaker 2: do you want to share that with US one.
• 41:29
  Speaker 3: Hundred and sixty six million dollars.
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: With it, with the statement saying the cheapest Star Wars
• 41:38
  Speaker 2: film made since Revenge of the seth. Welp, how is it?
• 41:44
  Speaker 2: Wh that? Oh?
• 41:46
  Speaker 3: Well?
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: Wait are you? Hold on? Hold on? Was the Clone Wars?
• 41:59
  Speaker 3: They don't have the Clone Wars on this list. I
• 42:04
  Speaker 3: would bet they're not including that in their comparison because
• 42:09
  Speaker 3: I think Clone Wars the movie it was like eight
• 42:12
  Speaker 3: million dollars or something. We've talked about it really yeah,
• 42:23
  Speaker 3: or it might have made eight million dollars at the theaters.
• 42:28
  Speaker 3: Budget eight point five million dollars, box office sixty eight
• 42:31
  Speaker 3: point five million.
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: That is absolutely amazing.
• 42:42
  Speaker 3: Sorry I'm dying.
• 42:45
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry about that. Uh yeah, so budget eight point
• 42:49
  Speaker 2: five million dollars, So that's the cheapest.
• 42:53
  Speaker 3: Yeah. So they're just saying like live action movies in
• 42:58
  Speaker 3: this calculation, because you can, yeah, compare one hundred and
• 43:01
  Speaker 3: sixty six million dollars to eight point five million.
• 43:04
  Speaker 2: Like it's also I wonder what was the budget Attack
• 43:13
  Speaker 2: of the Clones.
• 43:18
  Speaker 3: Says Attack of the Clones one hundred and fifteen million.
• 43:22
  Speaker 2: There you go, one hundred and fifteen Yeah, still still
• 43:26
  Speaker 2: cheaper than what they're stating.
• 43:30
  Speaker 3: And that's and that's colliter adjusting to twenty twenty one dollars.
• 43:36
  Speaker 3: By the way, so they have adjusted for inflation.
• 43:40
  Speaker 2: Yeah, okay, So.
• 43:42
  Speaker 3: Like a New Hope released in nineteen seventy seven, production
• 43:46
  Speaker 3: budget was eleven million dollars, so like Revenge of the
• 43:53
  Speaker 3: Sith was one hundred and thirteen.
• 43:56
  Speaker 2: So okay.
• 43:59
  Speaker 3: They all received the California tax credit with this, so
• 44:03
  Speaker 3: the budget was a lot more, but they're just not
• 44:05
  Speaker 3: paying as much taxes on it because they got the
• 44:08
  Speaker 3: tax credit. So yeah, I'm excited to see what we
• 44:15
  Speaker 3: get of this. The panel for Mandalorian and Grow Goo
• 44:18
  Speaker 3: guys is ten to eleven a m on Friday, April eighteenth.
• 44:30

  Speaker 3: No, we talked a lot about books, but we did
• 46:08
  Speaker 3: not have talked about the schedule.
• 46:09
  Speaker 2: Okay, okay, and.
• 46:11
  Speaker 3: You said this was going to be a short episode.
• 46:13
  Speaker 3: I know, so uh so big picture items off of
• 46:20
  Speaker 3: the schedule. So we have two publishing panels. On Friday,

• 46:31
  Speaker 3: and reveals, and then we also have Lucasfilm publishing The
• 46:36
  Speaker 3: Stories from a Galaxy Far Far Away. So that one
• 46:40
  Speaker 3: also says, join us in Japan for the latest publishing news.
• 46:44
  Speaker 3: The prequel trilogy to the sequel trilogy and beyond, including
• 46:47

  Speaker 3: Adam Christopher. Add up, what are you writing for us?

  Speaker 3: Star Wars end of story. Uh. Tessa Gratton, Mark Gugenheim,
• 47:04
  Speaker 3: Lydia kang ethan Zach's Phil Sozak, Alyssa Wong, and Marvel's
• 47:09
  Speaker 3: Cebe Silbuski, which I believe that they are an artist
• 47:15
  Speaker 3: for Marvel Comics, so that that that's your panel right there.
• 47:23
  Speaker 3: I'm very excited for this one. Obviously. I can't wait
• 47:27
  Speaker 3: to not have to wait on those and just wake
• 47:29
  Speaker 3: up everything.
• 47:30
  Speaker 2: Sabowski is a writer, but more importantly because I was like,
• 47:36
  Speaker 2: that name sounds familiar. Why does that sound so familiar?
• 47:38
  Speaker 2: He's the editor in chief of Marvel Comics.
• 47:41
  Speaker 3: So oh, very impressive.
• 47:44
  Speaker 2: Yeah all right.
• 47:45
  Speaker 3: So also Friday, we have Lucasfilm Animation's twentieth anniversary with
• 47:52
  Speaker 3: Dave Filoni, Chief creative Officer and Nathena Portillo, Vice President
• 47:56
  Speaker 3: of Anime Production.
• 47:59
  Speaker 2: Uh.
• 48:00
  Speaker 3: And there will be a sneak peak at what's to come.
• 48:05
  Speaker 3: How much money is on a Clone Rebellion show.
• 48:08
  Speaker 2: So that's the thing. Everybody's freaking out about this sneak peek.
• 48:13
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh, Oh my gosh, what's it gonna be?
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: And a little bit of me believes that it's going
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: to be Clone Wars adjacent. So we got Clone Wars,
• 48:31
  Speaker 2: we had Rebels. I guess you can say we got Resistance.
• 48:38
  Speaker 2: I'm still watching season two. I still need to watch
• 48:40
  Speaker 2: season two. I enjoyed season one, but it just didn't
• 48:45
  Speaker 2: feel like it was a part of that same family.
• 48:56
  Speaker 2: I think quite possible believe either I'm gonna put my
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: money down either High Republic or it's going to be
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: within the Mando Verse timeline between Return of the Jedi
• 49:25
  Speaker 2: and for.
• 49:27
  Speaker 3: I could see that, and maybe doing like a mando
• 49:31
  Speaker 3: Verse era gives them an opportunity to tie that into
• 49:34
  Speaker 3: the air of the Empire movie. If that's still going
• 49:38
  Speaker 3: to be a thing, that could be a good process.
• 49:44
  Speaker 3: I know they said a sage is going to come
• 49:46
  Speaker 3: back into play. A massage was there in Bad Batch,
• 49:51
  Speaker 3: so I feel like whatever it's going to be is
• 49:55
  Speaker 3: going to include a sage.
• 49:59
  Speaker 2: You think it'll on Omega.
• 50:02
  Speaker 3: I don't think it's Omega. I think it's going to
• 50:04
  Speaker 3: focus in on the Clones. But Assage is going to
• 50:10
  Speaker 3: be roped in or it's going to be like a.
• 50:12
  Speaker 2: Path out legitly was just about to say, do you
• 50:15
  Speaker 2: think it'll be the Path? I think that would be
• 50:18
  Speaker 2: a very fun anthology. We've seen like the uh oh, shoot,
• 50:26
  Speaker 2: what is the Stories the animated anthology that we've been getting,
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: Tales of the Jedi, Tales of I think Tales of
• 50:40
  Speaker 2: the Path would be a perfect title.
• 50:45
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I could see that. Yeah, Okay. So Saturday we
• 50:52
  Speaker 3: have uh an and Or panel, and then we have
• 50:56
  Speaker 3: an Ahsoka panel. There's also going to be a panel
• 51:00
  Speaker 3: with Oscar Isaac celebrating the tenth anniversary of the Force Awakens,
• 51:07
  Speaker 3: and then Sunday, the biggest panel of the day really
• 51:12
  Speaker 3: is uh vision of First Look at Visions volume three,
• 51:19
  Speaker 3: So that's kind of your big highlights. The surprise to
• 51:24
  Speaker 3: me is they are doing a Revenge of the Fifth
• 51:29
  Speaker 3: twentieth anniversary return to theaters screening worldwide, and they don't
• 51:37
  Speaker 3: have a twentieth Anniversary or Revenge of the Fifth panel
• 51:40
  Speaker 3: on here. That's probably my only surprise out of this.
• 51:46
  Speaker 2: I hmm, I wonder if the only reason why, and
• 51:54
  Speaker 2: correct me if I'm wrong, is Hey, Hayden, a part
• 52:01
  Speaker 2: of the celebrity list.
• 52:06
  Speaker 3: I don't know. I didn't see anything specifically, because.
• 52:16
  Speaker 2: If I could see them saying, hey, if we can
• 52:21
  Speaker 2: get both Ian and Hayden to come back for this
• 52:29
  Speaker 2: screening and panel, we will make a panel. If they
• 52:33
  Speaker 2: can't make it, then we're not gonna put it on
• 52:35
  Speaker 2: the schedule.
• 52:37
  Speaker 3: Hayden Christiansen right there front and center, Oscar Isaac Grossario, Dawson,
• 52:42
  Speaker 3: I'm d Best, John Nole, Diangio, Luna, Sam whit Wer,
• 52:46
  Speaker 3: Matt's Michelson, Alan tudic Manny Just Sento Daniels, Logan, Anthony Daniels,
• 52:52
  Speaker 3: Timor Morrison, Doug Sheeng, Ashley Eckstein. That looks like the
• 52:57
  Speaker 3: biggest announcement so far. So Hayden is coming, but no
• 53:03
  Speaker 3: Ewan Vanessa Marshall is also coming, so uh, Ewan is
• 53:08
  Speaker 3: not currently scheduled to come. I think that hasn't been announced.
• 53:16
  Speaker 2: Yeah, they're getting kind of you know, it's it's it's
• 53:23
  Speaker 2: gonna happen soon. Like I I think, if there's any
• 53:26
  Speaker 2: more announcements, they need to make them pretty soon.
• 53:29
  Speaker 3: Well, and there might be some that aren't announced that
• 53:34
  Speaker 3: are going to be like special reveals and stuff like that.
• 53:39
  Speaker 3: At the soaka panel like Ewan might step out as like, hey,
• 53:43
  Speaker 3: I'm gonna make a cameo here kind of thing. Yeah,
• 53:47
  Speaker 3: So because like I think that's what Daisy Ridley was,
• 53:52
  Speaker 3: like she wasn't announced to come to celebration and then
• 53:56
  Speaker 3: for the movie announcement. So uh, it just kind of
• 54:01
  Speaker 3: all depends. I mean, we'll see yeah, very very too,
• 54:07
  Speaker 3: Qui gon.
• 54:09
  Speaker 2: Yes, our last topic of tonight will be Star Wars
• 54:14
  Speaker 2: Hyperforce stories quite hyper Space Star Wars Hyperspace stories.
• 54:22
  Speaker 3: You said hyper Force?
• 54:23
  Speaker 2: Did I say hyper Force? Jesus Christ hyper Space stories? Now, Katie,
• 54:34
  Speaker 2: do you remember what our predictions were for this book?
• 54:40
  Speaker 3: I don't remember what our predictions were this book because
• 54:44
  Speaker 3: it was announced. Oh like, are you talking about like
• 54:47
  Speaker 3: the look of it?
• 54:48
  Speaker 2: No, no, no, we we got the covers and because
• 54:53
  Speaker 2: it was this one, it was and grievous and I
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: believe Obi Wan I believe was the four of them. Yeah,
• 55:05
  Speaker 2: and we're like, okay, well, what are these hyper Space
• 55:09
  Speaker 2: stories gonna be? Like, what do you think it's going
• 55:12
  Speaker 2: to be? And it was going into that whole conversation
• 55:16
  Speaker 2: that we were having about how oh I think we're
• 55:19
  Speaker 2: going to take a deeper dive into the timeline between
• 55:24
  Speaker 2: The High Republic and the prequel trilogy yep, And we're like, oh,
• 55:34
  Speaker 2: that would be kind of cool. I think it would
• 55:36
  Speaker 2: be really cool if they were somehow able to bridge
• 55:39
  Speaker 2: the gap between High Republic and the prequels, so that
• 55:47
  Speaker 2: way there's a little bit more fluidity. And we're just
• 55:49
  Speaker 2: not going to completely ignore the fact that there is
• 55:53
  Speaker 2: like newly in our minds found information that is the
• 55:59
  Speaker 2: High Republic and what is this book about?
• 56:02
  Speaker 3: Sorry, I know this is completely off topic, but this
• 56:07
  Speaker 3: makes me so happy. Coyote versus ACME has been saved
• 56:12
  Speaker 3: and is going to be distributed by Ketchup Entertainment.
• 56:17
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, okay, I'm sorry that you're not really in
• 56:21
  Speaker 2: the chat anymore. Uh. The GUA has already talked about this.
• 56:27
  Speaker 3: Oh I think we just shared it. I thought it was.
• 56:33
  Speaker 2: Oh okay, so it's been talked about all day as
• 56:36
  Speaker 2: far as like it's been in the news cycle all day.
• 56:39
  Speaker 2: Maybe it wasn't shared in the GUA.
• 56:41
  Speaker 3: But you know what, if Elon could get their shit together, because.
• 56:47
  Speaker 2: Like none of us have been getting notifications correctly.
• 56:51
  Speaker 3: Well, I can't log in on my phone anymore, Like
• 56:54
  Speaker 3: it's hit or missed like it says like, oh wow,
• 56:56
  Speaker 3: privacy blocked, like you would have to enable like privacy
• 57:03
  Speaker 3: tracking stuff, and I'm like, I'm not doing that. I'll
• 57:06
  Speaker 3: just stay off Twitter. So anyways, sorry, go ahead.
• 57:13
  Speaker 2: We predicted, we predicted what this story would be about.
• 57:19
  Speaker 3: Yep, you're right. I do remember that now.
• 57:21
  Speaker 2: And we did a damn good job at it, by
• 57:24
  Speaker 2: the way, yep, because that's exactly what this does. This
• 57:30
  Speaker 2: literally has Qui Gon and Obi Wan, but it also
• 57:39
  Speaker 2: has flashbacks.
• 57:40
  Speaker 3: From when the Count Do and Qui Gon.
• 57:43
  Speaker 2: To Count and Qui Gon, most notably when they were
• 57:48
  Speaker 2: on a mission in Jedna, yep and they encountered the.
• 58:00
  Speaker 3: I want to get the name right, Guardians of the Wills.
• 58:03
  Speaker 2: Guardians of the Wills, but also specifically.
• 58:07
  Speaker 3: They're artifact from the Brotherhood of the Ninth Door.
• 58:11
  Speaker 2: The Brotherhood of the Ninth Door is what is what
• 58:13
  Speaker 2: I was trying to find. Yes, so I really dug
• 58:18
  Speaker 2: this because there's also a small lesson that is learned.
• 58:25
  Speaker 2: So for me, I've said this more times that I
• 58:29
  Speaker 2: can even count on on both hands, not only on
• 58:33
  Speaker 2: this podcast, but on multiple podcasts. I despise non linear storyteller.
• 58:44
  Speaker 2: I despise it because in my brain, my brain thinks, hey,
• 58:50
  Speaker 2: if there is a timeline, it should follow the timeline.
• 58:53
  Speaker 2: The events of this should be before this, and that
• 58:57
  Speaker 2: should be before that.
• 58:59
  Speaker 3: I feel like they did the non linear storytelling here
• 59:02
  Speaker 3: very well.
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: And that's what I was gonna say with these flashbacks though.
• 59:07
  Speaker 2: It works very well in telling the story of how
• 59:12
  Speaker 2: Qui Gon has learned his lesson yep. And the really
• 59:19
  Speaker 2: big thing about that is we've always known Qui Gon
• 59:25
  Speaker 2: from of course, literally just in the Phantom Menace and
• 59:29
  Speaker 2: these small pockets of him storytelling in Clone Wars as well. Yeah,
• 59:39
  Speaker 2: in just random spots. But in these small moments, people
• 59:43
  Speaker 2: are like, oh, Qui Gon is the best Jedi in
• 59:46
  Speaker 2: the war, like in the entire galaxy and all of
• 59:48
  Speaker 2: Star Wars, She's like the best of the best. Blah
• 59:50
  Speaker 2: blah blah. It's like, Okay, wow, we don't really know
• 59:54
  Speaker 2: much about him. We there's some books out there as
• 59:58
  Speaker 2: well that also share a little bit information. We got
• 1:00:01
  Speaker 2: Tales of the Jedi that gave us more information, but
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 2: we're starting to see his character more and more, and
• 1:00:12
  Speaker 2: in here, I like the lesson he's learning because it
• 1:00:16
  Speaker 2: literally reflects the person that we see in Phantom Menace.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 1: Yep.
• 1:00:21
  Speaker 4: And this should be our final ad break. So y'all
• 1:00:25
  Speaker 4: thanks for bearing with us. We appreciate y'all. We'll be
• 1:00:28
  Speaker 4: right back.
• 1:00:29
  Speaker 2: And I think that's what I enjoy more so because
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: this is literally a let's actually just turned the pages
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 2: and see a eighty six page graphic novel. It's not
• 1:00:50
  Speaker 2: very big. It's a very quick read in all honesty,
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 2: which by the way, I'm not a fan of the
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: designer of this book. Yeah, because they did not the
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: panel layout was not traditional. They treated every single page
• 1:01:13
  Speaker 2: like a double splash page, so the panels went from
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 2: left to right, yeah, on the entire spread of both pages.
• 1:01:29
  Speaker 3: Especially as somebody who doesn't read who is getting into comics,
• 1:01:34
  Speaker 3: I say getting into comics, but like as a new
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 3: reader to comics doesn't read them frequently, it was very
• 1:01:40
  Speaker 3: confusing and disorienting because I would be like, Okay, I'm
• 1:01:44
  Speaker 3: going down the page. Oh wait, that doesn't make sense,
• 1:01:47
  Speaker 3: go to the next page. It's like this, Yeah, And
• 1:01:52
  Speaker 3: that was the thing.
• 1:01:53
  Speaker 2: It was not consistent. There was sometimes where it was traditional,
• 1:01:57
  Speaker 2: you know, one page to the next, whereas in some
• 1:02:01
  Speaker 2: random spots where it wasn't even like a big action
• 1:02:05
  Speaker 2: scene or anything. It would go from left to right
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 2: on the entire two pages, and it hurt my brain
• 1:02:12
  Speaker 2: a little bit.
• 1:02:13
  Speaker 3: Didn't love that, especially as a scan reader. Sometimes like
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 3: I read through for the dialogue story elements, and I'm
• 1:02:22
  Speaker 3: briefly looking at the artwork, but I go back through
• 1:02:25
  Speaker 3: to look at the artwork afterwards, and I know that's
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 3: not how you're supposed to read comics. That's just how
• 1:02:32
  Speaker 3: my brain works, so to me, I know, But like,
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 3: especially when I'm like okay, like they're separate, it's not
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 3: crossing over. But then I go back and I find, oh,
• 1:02:45
  Speaker 3: there's this one panel that's like your key is like, hey,
• 1:02:49
  Speaker 3: this runs over into the next page.
• 1:02:51
  Speaker 2: Yep. Yeah, I was not a fan of it. But
• 1:02:56
  Speaker 2: what I did like is the fact that we own
• 1:03:00
  Speaker 2: see Qui Gon in Phantom Menace. The stories that we
• 1:03:07
  Speaker 2: do get need to reflect the character that we do know.
• 1:03:12
  Speaker 2: So learning this lesson here and then remembering who he
• 1:03:17
  Speaker 2: is as the Jedi Master of Phantom Menace totally makes
• 1:03:22
  Speaker 2: sense and it clicks.
• 1:03:24
  Speaker 3: Yeah, I would love to see George Mann write more
• 1:03:29
  Speaker 3: Qui Gon stories. I think he would be gone.
• 1:03:32
  Speaker 2: I would be told.
• 1:03:33
  Speaker 3: Very well, and I'd like to see like a book
• 1:03:37
  Speaker 3: I wouldn't want to see other comic because I also
• 1:03:40
  Speaker 3: really wasn't a fan of the artwork in those The
• 1:03:43
  Speaker 3: artwork didn't feel finished.
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: Me. Yeah, it was. Uh I'm looking at one page
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: right now. It was a bit muted in some places.
• 1:03:56
  Speaker 2: I didn't love the artwork either. I did feel like
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 2: the art did look rushed in the sense of it
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: being that like not completed look.
• 1:04:10
  Speaker 3: Which is wild because this is another one of those
• 1:04:12
  Speaker 3: things that this was announced a year and a half
• 1:04:16
  Speaker 3: ago and just kept getting delayed.
• 1:04:18
  Speaker 2: Yes, now I will say this, we now know the
• 1:04:23
  Speaker 2: reason why it was being delayed because of George Mann's incident.
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: So yep, we're not saying it's reasonable. Yeah.
• 1:04:36
  Speaker 3: One, I would have rather seen it delayed further and
• 1:04:39
  Speaker 3: gotten what I felt like was a more finished book.
• 1:04:42
  Speaker 3: I love the story. The artwork is the only thing
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 3: I feel like that's lacking here.
• 1:04:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, And I also really love the fact that prior to.
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 3: This we.
• 1:05:00
  Speaker 2: Read no no uh uh uh oh, what's the other?
• 1:05:11
  Speaker 2: Qui gon uh qui gon and obi wan story Master
• 1:05:17
  Speaker 2: and Apprentice. We've read Master and Apprentice, We've read Padawan,
• 1:05:24
  Speaker 2: reading this knowing that, like it's it's adding on to
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: the story of Douku and Qui Gon going on their
• 1:05:34
  Speaker 2: own little small missions to like look for these like
• 1:05:37
  Speaker 2: special artifacts that that are are Like we know Douku
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: is looking for something a little bit more, whereas somebody,
• 1:05:48
  Speaker 2: uh like his persona of that being a Jedi in
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: the Council, is looking for artifacts for the Jedi to
• 1:05:56
  Speaker 2: keep safe. So like, I love that it touched on
• 1:06:01
  Speaker 2: that And how Qui Gonna learned this lesson of you know,
• 1:06:12
  Speaker 2: with this member of the Ninth Door uh cult, I
• 1:06:16
  Speaker 2: can't remember say it again, what was it?
• 1:06:19
  Speaker 3: The the Brotherhood of the Ninth Door.
• 1:06:22
  Speaker 2: Brotherhood of the Ninth Door. They were quote unquote dark
• 1:06:28
  Speaker 2: Side users, dark Side of the Force users, and there
• 1:06:34
  Speaker 2: was a lot of prejudice in this book for that,
• 1:06:38
  Speaker 2: and like Obi Wan was like, hey, if they use
• 1:06:40
  Speaker 2: the dark Side, we should stop them, Like we can't
• 1:06:42
  Speaker 2: do this, blah blah blah. And the lesson that I
• 1:06:45
  Speaker 2: keep referencing to that Obi Wan has or that Qui
• 1:06:48
  Speaker 2: Gon has learned, is just because he uses the dark
• 1:06:55
  Speaker 2: Side of the Force doesn't mean not mean he's a
• 1:06:59
  Speaker 2: bad person. Yeah, now I know that's widely controversial, widely,
• 1:07:08
  Speaker 2: but we had a character in this book literally prove
• 1:07:13
  Speaker 2: it to be true.
• 1:07:14
  Speaker 3: Minkotsu. I loved him.
• 1:07:18
  Speaker 2: I love the kind of like relationship that him and
• 1:07:23
  Speaker 2: Qui Gon like assumingly grew throughout this story and the
• 1:07:28
  Speaker 2: years that they've been bumping into each other.
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 3: Like.
• 1:07:32
  Speaker 2: I love the reveal of him at the very end,
• 1:07:35
  Speaker 2: being like eguay Gon has been a while, like what's up?
• 1:07:39
  Speaker 2: You know? So I love that. And I dug the story,
• 1:07:49
  Speaker 2: like you said, didn't really dig the art. I do
• 1:07:52
  Speaker 2: think George Mann has a very good grip on what
• 1:07:59
  Speaker 2: Star Wars is, who these characters are, the feelings that
• 1:08:04
  Speaker 2: we are supposed to get alongside these characters. I think
• 1:08:09
  Speaker 2: this was a great fit for him.
• 1:08:12
  Speaker 3: Yeah, one hundred. I'm kind of excited to see I
• 1:08:16
  Speaker 3: think just you know, Ireland's Mace Windy book is going
• 1:08:20
  Speaker 3: to be next. I'm kind of excited to see what
• 1:08:24
  Speaker 3: will come of that and continue on this Hey explore
• 1:08:30
  Speaker 3: a character deeper and tell us how they got to
• 1:08:33
  Speaker 3: who they are in the Phantom Menace. So yeah, pretty excited.
• 1:08:41

  Speaker 2: the ethos people, there's more mythical creatures other than dragons.
• 1:09:26
