  Speaker 1: The Force will be with you always.
• 0:18
  Speaker 2: Hello, everyone, Welcome back to another episode of Star Wars Alliance,
• 0:22
  Speaker 2: your home geek Ultimate Alliance podcast network for any and
• 0:26
  Speaker 2: all things Star Wars. I'm your host as always Katie,
• 0:29
  Speaker 2: and with me as always is Clay. Say hello, Clay, Hello.
• 0:36
  Speaker 2: A lot to talk about today.
• 0:38
  Speaker 1: We have a lot more than I thought we were.
• 0:43
  Speaker 2: Yeah, especially for Star Wars celebration being in two months. Yeah,
• 0:49
  Speaker 2: Like you know, we kept saying like, oh, yeah, the
• 0:52
  Speaker 2: Star Wars news gonna like dive, like gonna have nothing
• 0:57
  Speaker 2: in the bucket to talk about until Star Wars Celebration
• 1:00
  Speaker 2: and like it feels like shit kind of hit the
• 1:05
  Speaker 2: fan this week.
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: Yeah.
• 1:10
  Speaker 2: Obviously, as you can see by our title if you're here,
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: watching or listening, we have Felony or Figgy as our
• 1:18
  Speaker 2: title of choice. So that is like the last news
• 1:22
  Speaker 2: topic that we're going to talk about.
• 1:24
  Speaker 1: So just like, yes, stick with stick with us. We
• 1:28
  Speaker 1: have some really fun, exciting things to talk about before.
• 1:32
  Speaker 1: But I could I could feel an angry aura coming
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: from Katie's messages throughout this week when all of this
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: was going down, and I'm like, we have to at
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: least talk about it, and I think I definitely want
• 1:51
  Speaker 1: to hear Katie's part of this, because I will say
• 1:55
  Speaker 1: this before we jump onto all the other news. We
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: have specifically said that there can be a MCU like
• 2:06
  Speaker 1: structure to Star Wars. It can work, but is it needed?
• 2:12
  Speaker 1: That was our big thing mm. But we'll continue that
• 2:16
  Speaker 1: conversation after these small little news segments. So, Katie, where
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: do you want to jump on through first?
• 2:22
  Speaker 2: Well, and we're also going to talk about resistance, which
• 2:25
  Speaker 2: is like one of the heated Star Wars topics for people.
• 2:30
  Speaker 2: So that is the main, like review topic, but like
• 2:35
  Speaker 2: the main topic. Let's be real. It's the head of
• 2:40
  Speaker 2: Lucastol news and a nan Or season two trailer. But yeah,
• 2:44
  Speaker 2: the smaller bits of news. So the audible original Seeds
• 2:50
  Speaker 2: of Starlight is actually getting a sequel and it comes
• 2:53
  Speaker 2: out next week. It's called Haunted Starlight and it is
• 2:56
  Speaker 2: in fact written by George Mann.
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: I'm excited.
• 3:03
  Speaker 2: I'm excited. We both enjoyed Cam as a character. Hopefully
• 3:09
  Speaker 2: this means like they will eventually publish like a written
• 3:14
  Speaker 2: document for this book. Hopefully, because now it feels like
• 3:20
  Speaker 2: there's some length to give it.
• 3:21
  Speaker 1: That well, that was the thing that I was I
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: was wanting to ask you when we finally talk about this,
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: do you think that this will be a small novel
• 3:36
  Speaker 1: or do you think this will be a script book.
• 3:39
  Speaker 2: It would be a script book. I would say, you
• 3:42
  Speaker 2: think so. Yeah. I've been listening to some graphic audios
• 3:47
  Speaker 2: and it like Seeds of Starlight felt very similar to
• 3:52
  Speaker 2: the graphic audio graphic audios. They're adapting books and basically
• 3:56
  Speaker 2: turning them into a script. So like the difference in
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: audio length for the one I just listened to, it's
• 4:04
  Speaker 2: called Magic Shifts, and it was about eight hours versus
• 4:08
  Speaker 2: the audio book is about nine hours. Okay, So they
• 4:13
  Speaker 2: cut bits and pieces and that's what Seeds the Starlight
• 4:16
  Speaker 2: feels like. Is like there's some like audio descriptions that
• 4:20
  Speaker 2: they feel like, oh we can cut this because we're
• 4:22
  Speaker 2: adding in music or we're adding in background noises. And
• 4:27
  Speaker 2: that's what Seeds of Starlight feels like. I would say
• 4:31
  Speaker 2: this would be like a short audio drama script book.
• 4:37
  Speaker 1: Okay.
• 4:39
  Speaker 2: All in the game. In relation to what our like
• 4:43
  Speaker 2: intro said, that's interesting because I don't think Star Wars
• 4:45
  Speaker 2: can function like the MCU in terms of frequency slash
• 4:48
  Speaker 2: amounts of content. We're gonna talk about this again, We're
• 4:51
  Speaker 2: gonna briefly touch on it when we hit that news
• 4:55
  Speaker 2: segment on the game as to where we go with that.
• 5:00
  Speaker 2: But we're getting there. We're getting there. Yes, the next
• 5:04
  Speaker 2: bit of news that we have came out today and
• 5:07
  Speaker 2: it is from My Time to Shine, So like as
• 5:11
  Speaker 2: Snell likes to say, which I think he's watching this
• 5:14
  Speaker 2: to see what we say, but like see tear Scooper,
• 5:19
  Speaker 2: So again we take it with a grain of salt.
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: It depends on what My Time to Shine is actually
• 5:26
  Speaker 1: trying to scoop. They have been really good at like
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: like the beginnings of like the film, like the production stage,
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: they have been really good at getting some of those scoops.
• 5:45
  Speaker 1: So this is within their ballpark. But I think that
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: this specific film has kind of reached the stage where
• 5:55
  Speaker 1: My Time to Shine is not really reliable. So take
• 5:58
  Speaker 1: this with a grain of yes.
• 6:03
  Speaker 2: So they say that Sean Levy's Star WARSM will reportedly
• 6:07
  Speaker 2: have a significantly smaller budget than past entries. It is
• 6:12
  Speaker 2: described as quote more contained. The story will center Ryan
• 6:18
  Speaker 2: Gosling's character alongside a young male padawan. So this kind
• 6:22
  Speaker 2: of takes away the idea of scoundrel Ryan Gosling, but
• 6:29
  Speaker 2: we also said, hey, like korn Horn potentially, which is
• 6:35
  Speaker 2: a scoundrel but also a Jedi, so still makes sense,
• 6:39
  Speaker 2: and would also still put it in the range of
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Ray Skywalker territory because Koran Horn is in Obi wan
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: Kenobi's like a ten year old.
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so.
• 6:52
  Speaker 2: The timeline still matches up from what has been said previously.
• 6:57
  Speaker 2: I also don't think that a smaller budget is a
• 7:01
  Speaker 2: big deal. I think Sean Levy has done a lot
• 7:04
  Speaker 2: with a lot less than some things.
• 7:08
  Speaker 1: If anybody wants to know what Sean Levy can do
• 7:11
  Speaker 1: with a small budget, you need to watch his Netflix
• 7:15
  Speaker 1: movie with Ryan Reynolds and what's his name from from.
• 7:21
  Speaker 2: Risus Jackson.
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: Yes, gotch It was back in twenty twenty two. Yeah,
• 7:30
  Speaker 1: it was. Oh shoot, I'm grabbing Adam Project, Adam Project
• 7:38
  Speaker 1: and a project the Adam Project to go watch the
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: Autumn Project. Okay, it had I believe a relatively small
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: budget comparatively to the other projects that he has worked
• 7:49
  Speaker 1: on with Ryan.
• 7:51
  Speaker 2: So yeah, well, this says one hundred and thirty million
• 7:56
  Speaker 2: dollar budget for the Adam Project, so I wouldn't even
• 7:59
  Speaker 2: call that a small budget. But he's done some stuff
• 8:04
  Speaker 2: with a small budget Night at the Museum. I feel
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: like Pink Panther, which I didn't even know. I think
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: I figured this out every time we will get his stuff.
• 8:15
  Speaker 2: I didn't know he directed.
• 8:16
  Speaker 1: I did not know he did. I didn't either. So
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: but yeah, Nine of the Museum is a perfect example.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: I think the budget started to get bigger after every movie,
• 8:29
  Speaker 1: but just look at None of the Museum one like
• 8:32
  Speaker 1: perfect example right there. Which also means when you have
• 8:39
  Speaker 1: a smaller budget, you have to be more creative. You
• 8:42
  Speaker 1: have to think outside the box. And I think that's
• 8:46
  Speaker 1: what Star Wars needs, correct. It needs that outside of
• 8:51
  Speaker 1: the box thinking. It needs people who are going above
• 8:55
  Speaker 1: and beyond with the creative side of things. So I
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: think this works well or what we are hoping to
• 9:03
  Speaker 1: see as a shift and or change to quote unquote
• 9:09
  Speaker 1: modern Star Wars. Yes, so I think.
• 9:12
  Speaker 2: And the fact that it's more contained also lends itself
• 9:17
  Speaker 2: to a smaller budget. You're not having to CEGI more locations,
• 9:22
  Speaker 2: you're not having to travel with more locations. I think
• 9:26
  Speaker 2: it makes perfect sense. By the way I looked it up,
• 9:29
  Speaker 2: Nineth Museum Portly had one hundred and ten million dollar budget.
• 9:32
  Speaker 2: Oh my god, Yes, Pink Panther had an eighty million
• 9:36
  Speaker 2: dollar budget, but that was nineteen years ago.
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: So yeah, and I wouldn't I wouldn't put Pink Panther
• 9:44
  Speaker 1: in the same kind of category as not of the museum,
• 9:50
  Speaker 1: Star Wars Adam project like those, and I.
• 9:55
  Speaker 2: Would think that Pink Panther the majority of that budget
• 9:58
  Speaker 2: went to like se salaries for actors, so I would
• 10:04
  Speaker 2: still say that's a small budget filmy. So yeah, I'm
• 10:13
  Speaker 2: excited to see what comes of this. Hopefully we'll get
• 10:17
  Speaker 2: some information at Star Wars celebration on the game. Yes,
• 10:21
  Speaker 2: I that was my insinuation. This was years ago, so yes,
• 10:28
  Speaker 2: not adjusted for inflation, but still I would say, like
• 10:34
  Speaker 2: comparatively to today's films, still less expensive, exactly.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: Yeah. But one other thing that I want to kind
• 10:47
  Speaker 1: of gravitate towards in this report or scoop from My
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: Time to Shine says that it will center Rayan Goslin's
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: character alongside a young male pas. Now, this does insinuate
• 11:06
  Speaker 1: that he is a master and this is his padawan.
• 11:11
  Speaker 1: That's what the post insinuates, but that doesn't necessarily need
• 11:15
  Speaker 1: to be what it is.
• 11:16
  Speaker 2: Correct. You've had other stories in Star Wars where a
• 11:20
  Speaker 2: padawan ends up on their own Obi Wan for instance,
• 11:25
  Speaker 2: Now this is it currently a story in Star Wars,
• 11:28
  Speaker 2: but how he met Satene was he guarded Setine for
• 11:33
  Speaker 2: a year and they were introduced by Qui Gon to
• 11:36
  Speaker 2: each other, and then Obi Wan was left on his
• 11:39
  Speaker 2: own with Seatene for a year to two years. Like,
• 11:43
  Speaker 2: that's the story to a lot of people. So if
• 11:47
  Speaker 2: not unheard of that a padawan would be on a
• 11:52
  Speaker 2: mission by themselves and interacting with other people.
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: So I just wanted to point that out. I think
• 11:59
  Speaker 1: that'll be very interesting if that does become true, that
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: you know, we will have a younger actor older actor
• 12:08
  Speaker 1: kind of relationship in this uh in this movie which
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: worked really well for the Adam Project, So I think
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: that it will have good chemistry, uh with with what
• 12:23
  Speaker 1: we see eventually for Star Wars hopefully.
• 12:28
  Speaker 2: I it does make me kind of nervous because I
• 12:32
  Speaker 2: don't want it to be a retread of the Adam Project.
• 12:35
  Speaker 2: Like obviously you don't really have time travel in Star
• 12:38
  Speaker 2: Wars unless you have the world between worlds. But I
• 12:43
  Speaker 2: would say I don't want to retread like a similar
• 12:45
  Speaker 2: story which is understand coming of age. Now, could I
• 12:53
  Speaker 2: see a retread if we went with like an alien
• 12:56
  Speaker 2: character or like a female pad of one maybe sort of,
• 13:02
  Speaker 2: but I don't want a similar story for male adult
• 13:10
  Speaker 2: male kid.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, I hope that Levy is smart enough to
• 13:18
  Speaker 1: be like, hey, yeah, I know that I got hired
• 13:21
  Speaker 1: because of the Adam project, but I don't want to
• 13:24
  Speaker 1: do the Adam project in Star Wars.
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, hopefully. I feel like histories have like Deadpool
• 13:34
  Speaker 2: Wolverine feels original to me. You can disagree with me
• 13:39
  Speaker 2: if you want people in the universe, but like I feel,
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: I felt like that story hit all the right beats
• 13:47
  Speaker 2: in the MCU while kind of standing on its own.
• 13:50
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so.
• 13:53
  Speaker 2: Levy has a good track record I have. I have faith,
• 13:57
  Speaker 2: but hopefully our last news t doesn't destroy my faith.
• 14:05
  Speaker 2: All right, y'all, We're gonna hit our first ad break
• 14:08
  Speaker 2: and we will be right back in three two one Before.
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: We jump into that last news topic. We do have,
• 14:18
  Speaker 1: I believe one other piece of news, which is we
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: got a trailer. Yeah. I got a random text from
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: Katie saying and or season two trailer probably con footage,
• 14:34
  Speaker 1: And I'm thinking to myself, what con, What's going on?
• 14:39
  Speaker 1: Why are they just dropping this all of a sudden,
• 14:42
  Speaker 1: and I'm like, oh wait, this was probably a trailer
• 14:46
  Speaker 1: that was seen like months ago. Yes, just like how
• 14:52
  Speaker 1: just recently Daredevil has been showing a lot of footage
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: and everything else that has already been seen from other conventions.
• 15:00
  Speaker 1: So Katie reaction to the trailer.
• 15:09
  Speaker 2: One second. Sorry, Adrian was going to join us tonight
• 15:13
  Speaker 2: and he just messaged, so I'm responding to him.
• 15:16
  Speaker 1: Okay, uh, or I will tell you, uh, the three
• 15:23
  Speaker 1: times that I have seen this trailer, I have yet
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: to see it would sound I are you serious? Yeah,
• 15:30
  Speaker 1: I am dead serious. I still have not listened to
• 15:33
  Speaker 1: this trailer whatsoever. I have just watched it, and it's
• 15:37
  Speaker 1: mostly because, like the times that I have wanted to
• 15:39
  Speaker 1: look at it, I've been at work and then I
• 15:43
  Speaker 1: noticed that my speakers are home, like fuck, okay, you
• 15:46
  Speaker 1: just watch and I'm just like looking at things. I
• 15:50
  Speaker 1: of course think the show is going to be just
• 15:53
  Speaker 1: as gorgeous as season one. I think it's hitting all. Yeah.
• 16:00
  Speaker 2: The trailer hits a lot of high points, like I'm excited.
• 16:06
  Speaker 2: I'm guessing like the party mon month look is at
• 16:10
  Speaker 2: is like her daughter's wedding because we see that like
• 16:14
  Speaker 2: we see that first date happen at the end of
• 16:19
  Speaker 2: and our season one. So I like there's a lot
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: of beautiful footage, but there's also a lot of like
• 16:27
  Speaker 2: high action showcased. But what did you think about the
• 16:33
  Speaker 2: trailer being mostly like showcasing first season reactions instead of
• 16:40
  Speaker 2: like focusing on like a story, Like we get footage
• 16:44
  Speaker 2: and then we get well reviewed, Like.
• 16:47
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like a whole lot of quotes. Yeah. I I
• 16:53
  Speaker 1: almost thought, like my first initial thought when I I
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: was actually reading what the actual quotes were saying, because
• 17:01
  Speaker 1: usually when I see these things, I'm not reading anything.
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: I'm literally just watching the footage first and then I'll
• 17:06
  Speaker 1: watch it again to actually read these quotes. When I
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: actually read the quotes, I'm like, it's almost like they're
• 17:14
  Speaker 1: trying too hard to sell this.
• 17:18
  Speaker 2: That's what it kind of felt like.
• 17:20
  Speaker 1: And I think it's a little bit reactionary to the
• 17:23
  Speaker 1: fact that like the first like few episodes were like
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: there was no real buzz outside of the Star Wars circles.
• 17:36
  Speaker 2: Yeah, what I so, I watched Star Wars explained like
• 17:41
  Speaker 2: breakdown of the trailer and what he said about the trailer,
• 17:45
  Speaker 2: and I totally agree with is this feels like this
• 17:49
  Speaker 2: because what you don't hear when you don't listen to
• 17:53
  Speaker 2: this without audio is that there's another modern song attached
• 17:57
  Speaker 2: to this, but it's not like Star Wars y. It's
• 18:00
  Speaker 2: like it's, oh, gosh, I can't remember the song is
• 18:04
  Speaker 2: like the revolution has just begun or something is the
• 18:07
  Speaker 2: song that's playing, and then it's just all this footage.
• 18:12
  Speaker 2: It feels like they saw how the Skeleton Crew trailer went,
• 18:17
  Speaker 2: and we're like, oh, let's showcase action and like the
• 18:21
  Speaker 2: good reviews to try and lure in other people, because,
• 18:25
  Speaker 2: as we always say with these trailers, it really doesn't
• 18:29
  Speaker 2: matter to us about the trailer. I'm still gonna watch it,
• 18:33
  Speaker 2: Like as a Star Wars man, I'm still gonna watch
• 18:35
  Speaker 2: this show, whereas somebody else might need to see the
• 18:41
  Speaker 2: action and the reviews involved to go Okay, you know what,
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: let me give us a chance.
• 18:46
  Speaker 1: Yeah, all the game says it might be biased as
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: a Tony Gilory fan, but the fact that Star Wars
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: got a creative of his quality in the first place
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: still blows my mind.
• 19:00
  Speaker 2: Yeah, and then all boils down to the Rogue one
• 19:02
  Speaker 2: drama with reshoots and stuff. It I want to say
• 19:08
  Speaker 2: Tony Gilroy was like consulting on the script or something
• 19:14
  Speaker 2: and then was like, you know what, like I'll step
• 19:16
  Speaker 2: in and do this. That's what it feels like. But
• 19:21
  Speaker 2: I really can't believe he stuck around after that.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and it kind of, of course, I think disappoints
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: a lot of people knowing that, Like even this story
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: kind of got altered due to the fact that Disney
• 19:36
  Speaker 1: was like, Hey, we're gonna cut down on the amount
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: of TV that we're doing, so instead of five seasons,
• 19:43
  Speaker 1: we're gonna do two. So like, well, that disappoints, but
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: there was.
• 19:50
  Speaker 2: There was that aspect, but also Diego, Luna and Tony
• 19:54
  Speaker 2: had also said I don't want to be roped into
• 19:57
  Speaker 2: this for ten years, like so they had said that,
• 20:01
  Speaker 2: but it all you don't know if they're saying that
• 20:03
  Speaker 2: as just like a hey, like we got told this,
• 20:07
  Speaker 2: so we're just dealing with it and here's an excuse.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm I mostly mean that on like the
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: bias side of like, hey, like first world problems for me,
• 20:17
  Speaker 1: I want five more years of this, But yeah, uh
• 20:23
  Speaker 1: I and I could see what you were saying as
• 20:26
  Speaker 1: far as like equating it to the skeleton crew trailer
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: and all of that. I totally get it. I really
• 20:41
  Speaker 1: hope that people saw and or after the fact, because
• 20:48
  Speaker 1: that's the one thing that I wish that like Lucasfilms specifically,
• 20:54
  Speaker 1: and Marvel Entertainment specifically or Marvel Studios would speci typically
• 21:00
  Speaker 1: keep track of their own shows and be like, hey,
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: we care about this show after it's done airing as well,
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: here's the latest stats, and be like, hey, like there
• 21:17
  Speaker 1: was a lot of buzz after the season finale of
• 21:20
  Speaker 1: van Or and the show has actually had this many
• 21:24
  Speaker 1: amount of minutes streamed or hours streamed or whatever you
• 21:28
  Speaker 1: want to bullshit you want to throw out there to
• 21:31
  Speaker 1: actually show like, hey, word got around and now it's popular,
• 21:36
  Speaker 1: you know, Yeah.
• 21:38
  Speaker 2: Especially with the fact that they aired it on Hulu.
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: They aired it like they aired the opening episodes on Hulu,
• 21:44
  Speaker 2: Cable like et cetera.
• 21:46
  Speaker 1: On fex.
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I want to know how these shows do after
• 21:51
  Speaker 2: the fact. And that's definitely one thing I deeply miss
• 21:57
  Speaker 2: about cable. We don't get this kind of we don't
• 22:01
  Speaker 2: get cable stats with streaming in the slightest and it sucks.
• 22:09
  Speaker 1: What do you.
• 22:13
  Speaker 2: Keeping on the trailer before we move into like the
• 22:16
  Speaker 2: release schedule for Ander, because that also got announced with
• 22:22
  Speaker 2: the trailer. I think the visuals are great. Everything looks phenomenal.
• 22:30
  Speaker 2: I'm very excited to see how the arcs will play
• 22:34
  Speaker 2: out because there's again, there's no story line up with
• 22:41
  Speaker 2: this trailer. There's just footage from season like.
• 22:45
  Speaker 1: You can you can like look at it and say like,
• 22:51
  Speaker 1: oh this, what's this is what's going to happen as
• 22:55
  Speaker 1: far as story, But that's just overall what and Or
• 22:59
  Speaker 1: is about, you know, yeah, and let's face it, that's
• 23:03
  Speaker 1: what Star Wars is about. So they're not really going
• 23:10
  Speaker 1: too heavy on a singular story plot. They're just saying, hey,
• 23:15
  Speaker 1: you like Star Wars for these reasons, here are those reasons.
• 23:19
  Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, basically, So moving on to the release schedule.
• 23:28
  Speaker 2: I had planned out a very detailed schedule for the
• 23:32
  Speaker 2: next two and a half months after and Or releases.
• 23:36
  Speaker 2: We had to throw that out the window because straight
• 23:39
  Speaker 2: out of the window, we're real dizzy. Lucasfilm has chosen
• 23:45
  Speaker 2: to release and or It over four weeks, basically three
• 23:52
  Speaker 2: episodes a week.
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: So how do you feel about that? I don't know.
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: And on the game, I think I think you could
• 24:00
  Speaker 1: possibly help me out in the g in the geek
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Verse discord. I can't remember who said it, but they're like, oh,
• 24:13
  Speaker 1: so we're getting an and or movie every week. Yeah,
• 24:18
  Speaker 1: this is fun, don't get me wrong, But why so much?
• 24:26
  Speaker 1: Why so fast? It's going to be a little bit
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: of a struggle for us days get these episodes in
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: by the time of recording. By the way, just Disney,
• 24:42
  Speaker 1: I don't know if you're you know, very you know,
• 24:46
  Speaker 1: knowing of my schedule, it would be nice if you're
• 24:52
  Speaker 1: gonna do this, release it on the Tuesday prior, like
• 24:59
  Speaker 1: you were doing with a Soka, right, was it was
• 25:04
  Speaker 1: it Tuesdays or Wednesdays?
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: That April a tuesday?
• 25:08
  Speaker 1: Is it a Tuesday? Did you do tuesdays? Yeah? Oh okay,
• 25:13
  Speaker 1: hold up, hold up my reverse it. Do we know
• 25:22
  Speaker 1: time slots should be nine pm?
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: Still I would imagine.
• 25:27
  Speaker 1: Hell, yeah, okay, never mind, Disney, we are good, good
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: do go. I will mostly with it. If it releases
• 25:37
  Speaker 1: at nine pm, I will not go to bed until
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: the last episode is finished. I will probably watch all
• 25:44
  Speaker 1: three and I will be watching a movie every single
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: week that I can do. Now do we know the
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: run times?
• 25:54
  Speaker 2: We don't that so I would have imagine forty five minutes.
• 26:04
  Speaker 1: I was just gonna say last season had a little
• 26:07
  Speaker 1: bit of a flux of the actual Uh, let's.
• 26:15
  Speaker 2: See forty two minutes, thirty eight minutes, forty three, fifty
• 26:19
  Speaker 2: forty six, fifty four, fifty three, fifty seven, fifty forty six,
• 26:23
  Speaker 2: forty six, fifty seven. So yeah, about fifty minutes an episode.
• 26:29
  Speaker 1: Yeah, so if we look at it by let's just
• 26:33
  Speaker 1: say they somehow verbatim did the first three episodes of
• 26:37
  Speaker 1: the exact same So thirty eight plus forty two.
• 26:41
  Speaker 2: Well, you look at that. On the game says if
• 26:44
  Speaker 2: I remember correctly, a number of stories in season when
• 26:47
  Speaker 2: we're told in three episode arcs and people wan of
• 26:49
  Speaker 2: them in three episode chunks instead of weekly drops. I
• 26:52
  Speaker 2: don't remember this specifically all in the game, but that
• 26:56
  Speaker 2: was my argument too, especially because this season they have
• 27:00
  Speaker 2: specifically said, hey, we're covering four years, and each episode
• 27:06
  Speaker 2: or every three episodes is going to be a singular
• 27:10
  Speaker 2: arc covering that year. So we're gonna go four eight
• 27:13
  Speaker 2: by three A B y two aby zero or actually
• 27:18
  Speaker 2: I think it's three two one zero because we're picking
• 27:21
  Speaker 2: up right before Roque one, and they just didn't want
• 27:25
  Speaker 2: to deal with critiques because, like I remember Falcon and
• 27:28
  Speaker 2: Winter Soldier specifically, like when we were reviewing that here,
• 27:33
  Speaker 2: a lot of people were like, Okay, this is a
• 27:34
  Speaker 2: movie that they just decided to split into chunks, like
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: that was one of the biggest critiques for Falcon and
• 27:42
  Speaker 2: Winter Soldier, and they just don't want to deal with
• 27:44
  Speaker 2: it at this point. The other thing in the Star
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: Wars Explained video that I watched is that apparently the
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: deadline for the twenty twenty six Emmy consideration is May
• 27:56
  Speaker 2: thirty first, uh, which I just found out right before
• 28:03
  Speaker 2: watching Or before we started recording, because I watched that
• 28:06
  Speaker 2: right before. So that makes a lot of sense because
• 28:10
  Speaker 2: and Or was a great hit at the Emmys and
• 28:16
  Speaker 2: hit a lot of the award circuits, so makes a
• 28:20
  Speaker 2: lot makes sense.
• 28:21
  Speaker 1: I could see them trying to definitely hit that award
• 28:29
  Speaker 1: season very very very much. So did the math two
• 28:36
  Speaker 1: hours two hour blocks for every single movie, which is
• 28:44
  Speaker 1: technically kind of how theaters are trying to block their
• 28:49
  Speaker 1: movies out now two hours to two hours thirty minutes.
• 28:52
  Speaker 1: So I think that works perfectly. You are watching a
• 28:56
  Speaker 1: movie from nine pm to eleven PM, Like I could
• 29:01
  Speaker 1: be a little tired in the morning, but like, at
• 29:05
  Speaker 1: least it's not Hey, we're gonna drop the first episode
• 29:08
  Speaker 1: at ten pm, because then I would say, yeah, I'll
• 29:11
  Speaker 1: watch the first one and then watch the other two later,
• 29:15
  Speaker 1: whereas at nine I can do the whole thing.
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: Yeah, it would be beneficial if they could move that
• 29:22
  Speaker 2: premiere time to eight pm, just because as a parent
• 29:27
  Speaker 2: of what will be eleven month old at the time,
• 29:33
  Speaker 2: I need to go to bed.
• 29:35
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Yeah, now, I totally agree. The days of staying
• 29:42
  Speaker 1: up late like I did at the beginning of this podcast,
• 29:46
  Speaker 1: staying up until two am just to watch the episodes, Yeah,
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: never again, probably probably never again.
• 29:53
  Speaker 2: At least you sleep now.
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: Yeah, yes, I definitely need it.
• 30:00
  Speaker 2: No, because, like last night, Matt and I were going
• 30:04
  Speaker 2: to watch an episode of Reacher, the last episode that
• 30:08
  Speaker 2: came out last week because Amazon dropped three episodes and
• 30:11
  Speaker 2: then they I think they're going back to one episode
• 30:14
  Speaker 2: a week. But anyways, we were gonna watch the third
• 30:16
  Speaker 2: Reacher episode and we hit after bedtime, we did all
• 30:21
  Speaker 2: the chores and everything, and we were like, I'm gonna
• 30:23
  Speaker 2: go to bed and realize it's seven forty fives.
• 30:27
  Speaker 1: Like, yep, I remember those days. That's what children will
• 30:33
  Speaker 1: do to you.
• 30:35
  Speaker 2: And like the y'all, the reason we do this podcast
• 30:39
  Speaker 2: at seven is because I already had an early bedtime.
• 30:43
  Speaker 2: I told these people, because like you have Marvel Alliance DC,
• 30:47
  Speaker 2: They're all doing nine pm. And I was like, hell, no,
• 30:49
  Speaker 2: I'm going to bed at nine, like I was an
• 30:52
  Speaker 2: old lady before I had a baby. Like it's a
• 30:56
  Speaker 2: lot worse now.
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I I have only gotten to the point
• 31:02
  Speaker 1: of agreeing with Katie now, Like I I try to
• 31:07
  Speaker 1: edit this podcast so fast after we record, because by
• 31:12
  Speaker 1: the time nine thirty ten o'clock hits, I am slugging.
• 31:17
  Speaker 1: I am dragging my feet through this house. So yeah,
• 31:22
  Speaker 1: that reminds me, Well, do you have anything else in
• 31:27
  Speaker 1: regards to and or season two trailer?
• 31:30
  Speaker 2: I don't think so I am excited to see if
• 31:33
  Speaker 2: we get a fuller trailer. Also something that I sorry,
• 31:39
  Speaker 2: I do have one more thing, be too. Emo is
• 31:41
  Speaker 2: not in this trailer? Where is he?
• 31:44
  Speaker 1: Is he?
• 31:44
  Speaker 2: Okay?
• 31:46
  Speaker 1: I hope so?
• 31:47
  Speaker 2: I hope so too. We did get K TWOSLF, though.
• 31:51
  Speaker 1: For a brief second it was just like really really quick. Yeah,
• 31:56
  Speaker 1: but that was it. Now to the meat and potatoes
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: of this conversation of this podcast.
• 32:05
  Speaker 2: We're gonna go into our second ad break and we'll
• 32:09
  Speaker 2: be right back.
• 32:11
  Speaker 1: I am ready to see Katie just seething with anger
• 32:16
  Speaker 1: right now. And like I said, so real quick. Going
• 32:22
  Speaker 1: back to what All in the Game said at the
• 32:24
  Speaker 1: beginning of this podcast, uh saying, that's an interesting take
• 32:30
  Speaker 1: because I don't think Star Wars can function like the
• 32:34
  Speaker 1: MCU in terms of frequency and amounts of content. This
• 32:39
  Speaker 1: conversation is going to start the conversation about Maloney versus
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: Bigee for the head of Star Wars the head of Lucasfilm.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: The head of Lucasfilm, not the head of Star Wars.
• 32:53
  Speaker 2: We have to Okay, so the whole basis for this.
• 32:58
  Speaker 1: On the game.
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: We will get to this, I promise, but I want
• 33:00
  Speaker 2: to give people background.
• 33:02
  Speaker 1: Context is key, people.
• 33:04
  Speaker 2: Context is key. Some site called puck I don't know
• 33:11
  Speaker 2: who this site is, but apparently a lot of people
• 33:13
  Speaker 2: think this person is reputable because even Discussing Film picked
• 33:18
  Speaker 2: it up and was like, hey, big news. It was
• 33:21
  Speaker 2: like eleven thirty at night on Monday.
• 33:25
  Speaker 1: Like yeah, very very odd.
• 33:29
  Speaker 2: Basically that Kathleen Kennedy will be stepping down at the
• 33:33
  Speaker 2: end of twenty twenty five, which apparently her contract was
• 33:39
  Speaker 2: up last year. She decided to stay on for one
• 33:42
  Speaker 2: more year. Is all what this thing said. You can
• 33:47
  Speaker 2: go find it because it's out there in the wild.
• 33:50
  Speaker 2: A lot of people picked it up, including I believe
• 33:53
  Speaker 2: the Hollywood Reporter. Oh, there we go on the game
• 33:58
  Speaker 2: coming in hot Thank you very much much, because I
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: am not well versed, even though I used to be.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Okay it well, it says PUCK is run by Matthew
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: Belooney bell Owning, who used to work for Hollywood Reporter.
• 34:13
  Speaker 1: He's got a lot of contacts in the business. So
• 34:16
  Speaker 1: there you go. I think that's very interesting. Didn't know that, Yes, I.
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: Did not know, but uh so there's your sourcing on that.
• 34:25
  Speaker 2: But still very weird that it came out eleven thirty
• 34:29
  Speaker 2: at night. It feels like when one of my friends
• 34:34
  Speaker 2: dropped Armie Hammer as the Batman before Robert Pattinson was
• 34:40
  Speaker 2: announced h and everybody just lost their mind. It feels
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: like one of those drops. But anyways, so a lot
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: of people picked this up as word of law, and
• 34:55
  Speaker 2: then a lot of people started saying, nah, she's not
• 34:58
  Speaker 2: resigning U including of course, uh CNN actually picked it
• 35:04
  Speaker 2: up and said CNN. Sources at Lucasfilm said, Kathleen Kennedy
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: is not resigning, so grains of salts people, we have
• 35:13
  Speaker 2: no idea what's happening. I would assume if there is
• 35:18
  Speaker 2: a resigning in Kathleen Kennedy's future or a retiring, I
• 35:22
  Speaker 2: should say it will probably be at Star Wars celebration.
• 35:28
  Speaker 2: And I just want to remind people because a lot
• 35:31
  Speaker 2: of people have forgotten this. Kathleen Kennedy leads Lucas Film.
• 35:37
  Speaker 2: Lucasfilm includes Indiana Jones Willow and I think there's actually
• 35:43
  Speaker 2: one other Lucasfilm property that I don't know off the
• 35:46
  Speaker 2: top of my head, other than Star Wars. This is
• 35:49
  Speaker 2: not the leadership of the Star Wars franchise. This is Lucasfilm.
• 35:56
  Speaker 1: So when this news started to hit the circuit, of
• 36:01
  Speaker 1: course there is now so much speculation who is going
• 36:07
  Speaker 1: to take over for Kathleen Kennedy. There was, like you said,
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: people on both sides of fence of just being like, oh,
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: this is for sure, Oh it's only speculation, what's gonna happen?
• 36:20
  Speaker 1: And then all of a sudden there's people saying, well, well, first,
• 36:25
  Speaker 1: before we even started to see it, Travis says to
• 36:29
  Speaker 1: you specifically, I'll even read it right here. Lucasfilm sits
• 36:36
  Speaker 1: you down, he says, Katie, Lucasfilm sits you down. You
• 36:39
  Speaker 1: have to choose between Dave or Figee Running Star Wars.
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: What do you pick? And literally an hour later there's
• 36:50
  Speaker 1: the disgusting film link that says many insiders believe the
• 36:55
  Speaker 1: best candidate for the Lucasfilm president job is Kevin Feige. Now,
• 37:00
  Speaker 1: you did not have the chance to reply before giving
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: him that answer. So before I read the other thing
• 37:12
  Speaker 1: about Dave Filoni, the rather shocking reaction to people saying
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: what might happen to him if he's the head of it,
• 37:24
  Speaker 1: I want to know your answer right now, for everybody
• 37:28
  Speaker 1: to hear you sit down at a table with Lucasfilm
• 37:32
  Speaker 1: and they say, Katie, we need you to make this decision.
• 37:36
  Speaker 1: Who are you choosing and why?
• 37:39
  Speaker 2: So my choice in this matter would actually be Faggy,
• 37:47
  Speaker 2: which I know is going to like shock a lot
• 37:50
  Speaker 2: of people because I hate Faggy.
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: But I think I am clipping that and putting that
• 37:59
  Speaker 1: in our preview. I am putting that on Instagram. I'm
• 38:05
  Speaker 1: I'm for sure grabbing, I'm grabbing that clip and not
• 38:10
  Speaker 1: putting any context to it. I'm just gonna You're just
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: gonna hear Katie say I hate Figy and it is
• 38:17
  Speaker 1: just gonna have the picture of our thumbnail. It's gonna
• 38:20
  Speaker 1: be great.
• 38:25
  Speaker 2: I hate Figy, but I hate Folony more. And now, okay,
• 38:32
  Speaker 2: with some context, because context is key, bitches. I think
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: Folony is skilled at telling the story he wants to tell,
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: but I think the story that he wants to tell
• 38:50
  Speaker 2: is overwhelming. The benefit of having other creatives in Star
• 38:57
  Speaker 2: Wars where at the very least as much as I
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: have my opinion is that Figy takes creatives and says, no,
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: you're not gonna be creative, You're gonna fill a formula.
• 39:12
  Speaker 2: At least he is allowing for other stories to come
• 39:18
  Speaker 2: to the forefront.
• 39:25
  Speaker 1: So All in the Game makes a really quick comment.
• 39:27
  Speaker 1: He says, given that the Russos are being positioned for
• 39:30
  Speaker 1: more responsibilities since their return at Marvel Studios, Figy to
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: Lucasfilm isn't far fetched, given that he seems to be
• 39:37
  Speaker 1: running out of MCU creative steam.
• 39:41
  Speaker 2: And that's what a lot of people have kind of
• 39:44
  Speaker 2: come forward in that Fige wants to take other stories on.
• 39:49
  Speaker 2: He doesn't want to be just shoe worned into Marvel
• 39:54
  Speaker 2: for the rest of his life.
• 39:55
  Speaker 1: He's bored, and he's comfortable.
• 39:57
  Speaker 2: He's bored and perfectly when you have worked on stories
• 40:03
  Speaker 2: like this. MCU has been going since two thousand and eight,
• 40:06
  Speaker 2: and he's been working on X Mean and other Marvel
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: related stories.
• 40:14
  Speaker 1: Yeah. Uh yeah, I've told Abby this all the time. Like,
• 40:20
  Speaker 1: I get worried when I am in a job and
• 40:25
  Speaker 1: I start to feel too comfortable, because when you're comfortable,
• 40:31
  Speaker 1: you are just kinda like I said, you get a
• 40:35
  Speaker 1: little lazy, you let things pass, you're not so passionate
• 40:39
  Speaker 1: about things, and people start to notice. And I think,
• 40:44
  Speaker 1: more than anything, the last two years and the MCU
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: people have noticed. Yeah, granted, I will say this, there
• 40:58
  Speaker 1: are still great projects in these last two years that
• 41:01
  Speaker 1: I personally really really like in the MCU, Miss Marvel
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: being one of them, and she Hulk. There are really
• 41:11
  Speaker 1: great projects.
• 41:12
  Speaker 3: But the overall story, the overall feeling that people should
• 41:18
  Speaker 3: beginning from MCU projects are not how they used to be.
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: Yes, And like you you say, you start to get
• 41:29
  Speaker 2: worried when you get a little too comfortable. When I
• 41:33
  Speaker 2: as a software engineer when I look at the same
• 41:35
  Speaker 2: problem for three days in a row, I get tired
• 41:41
  Speaker 2: and I like I have Literally today I told my boss,
• 41:45
  Speaker 2: I'm like, I'm spinning in circles. I've been staring at
• 41:48
  Speaker 2: the same pieces of code for almost four months. I've
• 41:51
  Speaker 2: been working on the same problem since I got back
• 41:53
  Speaker 2: from maternity leave, and there keeps being like one percent
• 41:58
  Speaker 2: that we keep missing when this goes to the client
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: and it's like, okay, but this is like a different thing.
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: This is a different thing. I'm literally turning in circles,
• 42:08
  Speaker 2: and that can be something that happens, Like you don't
• 42:13
  Speaker 2: want to be turning in circles and repeating the same
• 42:15
  Speaker 2: story over and over again because you're not solving the problem.
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: In that case, you get tired and you start to
• 42:23
  Speaker 2: make mistakes. And I think that's potentially what's happened, and
• 42:28
  Speaker 2: that as on the game talked about at the beginning
• 42:31
  Speaker 2: about the frequency of content, I think they started to
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: make mistakes in this and they've realized, hey, we can't
• 42:38
  Speaker 2: turn out the same amount of content. But to say
• 42:43
  Speaker 2: Star Wars can't put out and animated show a year,
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: a live action show a year, in a movie a
• 42:51
  Speaker 2: year that's not unreasonable. That's not a huge amount of content.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and I'm not asking for Star Wars to jump
• 43:01
  Speaker 1: out of the gate on this decision on whoever it
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: may be. And they say, hey, we're committed to a
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: ten year plan. We're gonna do six movies a year,
• 43:10
  Speaker 1: we're gonna do two animated shows. Like no, know your audience,
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: know the content that you need, and work with that.
• 43:23
  Speaker 1: Know what does work. This is a whole new monster
• 43:30
  Speaker 1: for somebody like Figee because and I say whole new
• 43:38
  Speaker 1: monster it is and it isn't. Figee got pushed into
• 43:44
  Speaker 1: a position, and I say pushed. He earned the position.
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: I will say this through the success of the MCU
• 43:51
  Speaker 1: he got to I can't remember exactly what his purpose
• 43:55
  Speaker 1: is with an actual Marvel comics, but he does have
• 44:02
  Speaker 1: say on what happens in Marvel comics. He knows those
• 44:11
  Speaker 1: audiences as well. He knows how beneficial they are. Now
• 44:16
  Speaker 1: think about that kind of knowledge going into lucasfilm, specifically
• 44:21
  Speaker 1: Star Wars, and knowing about the book initiatives, right, that's
• 44:27
  Speaker 1: a whole another thing that he can tackle and say, hey,
• 44:34
  Speaker 1: you're doing this book initiative and you're adding comics to it.
• 44:38
  Speaker 1: Why is there no animated shows for this book initiative?
• 44:41
  Speaker 1: Why is there no TV shows for this book initiative? Like,
• 44:44
  Speaker 1: that's the kind of thing that we could see from
• 44:48
  Speaker 1: somebody like Fikey. Yeah, that's what makes me excited for
• 44:54
  Speaker 1: the possibility of fiky Now the second part of this,
• 44:59
  Speaker 1: which I thought was very very interesting and if anybody
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: out there can give me context of what this might
• 45:06
  Speaker 1: why this might be. There is a quote here on
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: the Discussing Film post that says one source says Disney's
• 45:13
  Speaker 1: top choice is actually Dave Filoni, but another disagrees, saying
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: he will be killed by all sides.
• 45:25
  Speaker 2: He doesn't have I don't actually know what that means.
• 45:30
  Speaker 2: I just feel like he doesn't have what it takes
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: to lead a studio. He has the capability to produce
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: things and lead a story group for what he wants.
• 45:47
  Speaker 1: I think that go ahead.
• 45:49
  Speaker 2: Running a studio is very different, and Filoni has worked
• 45:54
  Speaker 2: more on the creative side versus the production side. And like,
• 46:02
  Speaker 2: I mean, you look at Kathleen Kennedy. Kathleen Kennedy is
• 46:08
  Speaker 2: and Google is listening to me. Why am I not
• 46:10
  Speaker 2: surprised Kalyn Kennedy was born in nineteen fifty three, so
• 46:15
  Speaker 2: she is seventy one years old compared to Dave Felony,
• 46:20
  Speaker 2: and she's been running Star Wars since twenty fourteen. And
• 46:25
  Speaker 2: Dave Filoni was born in nineteen seventy four, so he's
• 46:28
  Speaker 2: fifty years old. He is four years younger than my mom. Yeah,
• 46:33
  Speaker 2: like and sure he has a lot of experience, and
• 46:37
  Speaker 2: he's chief creative officer of Lucas Hill, but that doesn't
• 46:40
  Speaker 2: give him the background in determining a budget like you.
• 46:45
  Speaker 1: Here is my take on it, BIGI knows how to
• 46:49
  Speaker 1: tell a story. Baloney knows how to tell a story.
• 46:55
  Speaker 1: Bige knows how to run a business. Baloney to this
• 47:00
  Speaker 1: point has not shown any evidence on how he knows
• 47:04
  Speaker 1: how to run a business. Yep. And that's what I'm
• 47:08
  Speaker 1: afraid of. I'm not going to be this asshole that says, hey,
• 47:15
  Speaker 1: stay in your lane, know your place, because I think
• 47:18
  Speaker 1: anybody has the opportunity to learn more. So if Faloney
• 47:25
  Speaker 1: is chosen for a position like this, it is sink
• 47:29
  Speaker 1: or swim for somebody like the Loony, which I don't
• 47:34
  Speaker 1: think Disney can afford to do with Lucasfilm. They need
• 47:42
  Speaker 1: to know, Hey, this decision is going to make money.
• 47:47
  Speaker 1: I don't think you make the risky move. I think
• 47:49
  Speaker 1: you make the smart move.
• 47:52
  Speaker 2: No, and especially when it boils down to I mean
• 47:58
  Speaker 2: Faloney has thought. He has six executive producer credits, with
• 48:06
  Speaker 2: all of them being Star Wars related. Most of his
• 48:10
  Speaker 2: experience is in the art department before Star Wars and Avatar.
• 48:16
  Speaker 2: Because Avatar he did a lot of directing as well,
• 48:20
  Speaker 2: but he doesn't have that experience, and All in the
• 48:23
  Speaker 2: Game says right here, there's a reason why creative like
• 48:25
  Speaker 2: James Gunn was paired up with Peter Saffron as co
• 48:28
  Speaker 2: heads of DC Studios.
• 48:29
  Speaker 1: Absolutely as a freaking it begs the question because I
• 48:37
  Speaker 1: know that you and Snell were also talking about this.
• 48:41
  Speaker 1: There's a name that has not been said by anybody
• 48:44
  Speaker 1: yet that we brought up in our gua chat Felony's
• 48:49
  Speaker 1: best bud and crime over at Star Wars and Lucasfilm,
• 48:55
  Speaker 1: that being I'm Jon Favreau. Yes, I was thinking of
• 49:01
  Speaker 1: the last thing. Yes, I don't.
• 49:04
  Speaker 2: He's not gonna bite. He wants the ability to work
• 49:09
  Speaker 2: on other things, and he like he's done so many
• 49:16
  Speaker 2: cool things in the movie industry. And I feel what
• 49:20
  Speaker 2: I felt like was when The Mandalorian ended, he was
• 49:24
  Speaker 2: going to be done with Star Wars. Now, obviously he
• 49:27
  Speaker 2: has kind of expanded into other realms of Star Wars
• 49:31
  Speaker 2: with Skeleton Crew and picking up consulting on Obi Wan
• 49:36
  Speaker 2: Kenobi and everything, But I feel like he wants the
• 49:41
  Speaker 2: ability to still go consult on a Spider Man movie
• 49:47
  Speaker 2: or like be in Deadpool and Wolverine. Like and I'm
• 49:51
  Speaker 2: not saying being the lead of Lucasfilm is not going
• 49:55
  Speaker 2: to allow him to do those things, but being the
• 49:58
  Speaker 2: head of Lucasfilm is a business responsibility. Like we've said,
• 50:02
  Speaker 2: like nobody wants to see Superman in Star Wars as
• 50:07
  Speaker 2: people say it, like nobody wants to see a businessman
• 50:10
  Speaker 2: take on a very public Hey my face is showing
• 50:14
  Speaker 2: role in this kind of idea, Like it just doesn't
• 50:20
  Speaker 2: present well to the business people. Like, So I don't
• 50:24
  Speaker 2: see Fabreau biting on this. I've seen a lot of
• 50:27
  Speaker 2: people like, but.
• 50:29
  Speaker 1: What if they decide to do a co head of
• 50:33
  Speaker 1: Lucasfilm Fabreau?
• 50:36
  Speaker 2: Boloney And we're about to jump into our third ad, y'all.
• 50:41
  Speaker 2: We promise we'll be right back. We promise. Favreau is
• 50:44
  Speaker 2: not the business side of things. Favreau would be a okay, this, he.
• 50:51
  Speaker 1: Would be the gun. He would be the James gun
• 50:54
  Speaker 1: in the scenario. He would be the creative side.
• 50:56
  Speaker 2: Yeah, he would be more of a creative side. Uh.
• 51:00
  Speaker 2: He does not want to be the business person in
• 51:02
  Speaker 2: the arrangement I could see. Okay, yes, he could be
• 51:07
  Speaker 2: like the soul head. He's not going to bite on
• 51:10
  Speaker 2: a soul head because he has that experience at both ends.
• 51:13
  Speaker 2: But he doesn't want to be a businessman. He wants
• 51:17
  Speaker 2: he wants to continue to explore the creative side. By
• 51:21
  Speaker 2: the way, if because what I was leading to with
• 51:24
  Speaker 2: his other projects you have not seen Chef Chef was great.
• 51:29
  Speaker 1: I think it's probably.
• 51:30
  Speaker 2: Favreau's best work. Besides, I actually really enjoy Iron Man
• 51:35
  Speaker 2: as well. But anyways, I don't think favora Bites at
• 51:43
  Speaker 2: all whatsoever.
• 51:44
  Speaker 1: Because I haven't I haven't really given my actual opinion
• 51:48
  Speaker 1: on the two.
• 51:49
  Speaker 2: No, you have not. I was the one who jumped
• 51:51
  Speaker 2: on the opinions.
• 51:54
  Speaker 1: I if I had to choose between one or the other.
• 52:01
  Speaker 1: If I was in the same scenario that Snell put
• 52:05
  Speaker 1: Katie on, trying to decide, hey, would you you have
• 52:10
  Speaker 1: to choose one of them. For Lucasfilm, I am choosing figs.
• 52:18
  Speaker 1: And it's the reason why I said he has the
• 52:25
  Speaker 1: business experience to understand these little moving parts that Lucasfilm has,
• 52:35
  Speaker 1: not just Star Wars, but Lucasfilm specifically because we are
• 52:39
  Speaker 1: a Star Wars podcast. There are those little moving pieces
• 52:47
  Speaker 1: that haven't gotten so much attension. Again, we talked about
• 52:51
  Speaker 1: the High Republican Initiative. It's gotten a lot of attention,
• 52:55
  Speaker 1: it's gotten a lot of attention for the last five years,
• 53:00
  Speaker 1: but there's still things that even we are wanting, Hey
• 53:04
  Speaker 1: where are the animated shows? Hey, where's where's a TV show?
• 53:08
  Speaker 2: Hey?
• 53:09
  Speaker 1: Are we gonna do something in high budget movie with
• 53:12
  Speaker 1: High Republic Like I have no idea if Lucasfilm is
• 53:20
  Speaker 1: even considering that type of thing for the small screen
• 53:24
  Speaker 1: or the big screen. When it comes to the High
• 53:28
  Speaker 1: Republic with Fikey, I would know, Hey, there's consideration, Like
• 53:34
  Speaker 1: there's hope, you know, for that kind of thing. And
• 53:39
  Speaker 1: I think that you made a good point in saying
• 53:43
  Speaker 1: that with the MCU there is a formula, but there
• 53:50
  Speaker 1: are still a lot of creatives that have been throughout
• 53:54
  Speaker 1: the MCU and they tell different stories. It's not just
• 54:01
  Speaker 1: the same story. It's different stories that have the opportunity
• 54:06
  Speaker 1: to connect to every single movie, which they do. Of course.
• 54:11
  Speaker 1: With Star Wars, we had a discussion many months ago,
• 54:17
  Speaker 1: maybe even years ago now where we said, there does
• 54:23
  Speaker 1: not need to be a Star Wars endgame. There doesn't
• 54:29
  Speaker 1: need to be that moment where every single person in
• 54:33
  Speaker 1: every single Star Wars film gets at the battlefront and
• 54:40
  Speaker 1: charges at the enemy. There doesn't need to be that
• 54:44
  Speaker 1: in Star.
• 54:44
  Speaker 2: Wars because the point of Star Wars is that it
• 54:49
  Speaker 2: is a galaxy far far away that has its own
• 54:52
  Speaker 2: time frame, whereas Avengers in the NCU is kind of
• 54:56
  Speaker 2: all in this one area in the timeline. Yes, so
• 55:01
  Speaker 2: you can have everybody join in, but for Star Wars,
• 55:07
  Speaker 2: you have eighty years in the Skywalker saga alone.
• 55:10
  Speaker 1: Well, and that's the thing. That's the thing. I just
• 55:13
  Speaker 1: came up with something that I think I'm gonna get
• 55:17
  Speaker 1: yelled at so much by people, But I now I'm
• 55:20
  Speaker 1: I have to say it. What if Kevin Fague were
• 55:24
  Speaker 1: to redo four, five, and six.
• 55:27
  Speaker 2: Oh gods, listen, listen, listen, listen for this reason.
• 55:37
  Speaker 1: Because just like you said, he tells pockets of stories
• 55:43
  Speaker 1: in a linear format. Because one movie goes after the other,
• 55:46
  Speaker 1: goes after the other. Whatever. Technically that's what they do
• 55:50
  Speaker 1: with the Skywalker Soviet. It's not what I love and
• 55:53
  Speaker 1: it's not what I want. But you could even say
• 56:01
  Speaker 1: to have an anchor point for these films, these theoretical
• 56:07
  Speaker 1: films for Fige. We have anchor points within the timeline
• 56:13
  Speaker 1: of Star Wars and the Skywalker Saga, the Higher Republic era,
• 56:20
  Speaker 1: the sequel trilogy and all that. So Figee could even say, hey,
• 56:27
  Speaker 1: here's another Star Wars initiative. We know the current timeline
• 56:32
  Speaker 1: of Star Wars, but there's other stories out there that
• 56:36
  Speaker 1: aren't surrounding the Skywalkers, and we want to follow those people.
• 56:40
  Speaker 1: And I saw somebody bring it up today on my timeline.
• 56:47
  Speaker 1: There is a good opportunity. And I'm not saying Felony
• 56:52
  Speaker 1: has it done it either, but there's a good opportunity
• 56:56
  Speaker 1: for Fige to be like, there's a lot of Legends
• 56:59
  Speaker 1: books out there that there's nothing being done with any
• 57:03
  Speaker 1: of those characters, and those characters are just hanging loose.
• 57:07
  Speaker 1: I think it would be kind of cool to use
• 57:09
  Speaker 1: some of these characters. Boom, we get a Bane trilogy,
• 57:13
  Speaker 1: we get all of this, we get that we get
• 57:15
  Speaker 1: corn Horn, we get the Jedi Academy, Skywalker's Jedi Academy.
• 57:22
  Speaker 1: You know, all of these different things, but they are
• 57:27
  Speaker 1: in the timeline technically, but not dealing with the characters
• 57:34
  Speaker 1: that we've already gone past. That's what I want from
• 57:40
  Speaker 1: somebody who jumps into the seat to Kathleen Kennedy seat,
• 57:45
  Speaker 1: to not be afraid to be like, hey, yeah, you
• 57:49
  Speaker 1: want to stay within this Skywalker sandbox. Cool, we can.
• 57:53
  Speaker 1: It's not going to have Luke Skywalker it though. We
• 57:57
  Speaker 1: will know the events of the Death Star and what
• 58:00
  Speaker 1: they all, what happened to the galaxy. You know, Palpatine
• 58:04
  Speaker 1: is dead, but boom, We're gonna tell this other story.
• 58:08
  Speaker 1: That's what I would want to see, and I would
• 58:12
  Speaker 1: expect that more from Figy than I would with Filoni,
• 58:19
  Speaker 1: because falone has gotten comfortable with his characters that he
• 58:28
  Speaker 1: has told so many stories with which I still appreciate.
• 58:33
  Speaker 1: By the way, I'm not saying this to say that
• 58:34
  Speaker 1: I hate Ahsoka and I hate all this other stuff. No,
• 58:37
  Speaker 1: I want more Soca, I want all of that. But
• 58:41
  Speaker 1: it's all within the same timeline. It's all deep within
• 58:45
  Speaker 1: the same sandbucks that we're kind of tired of seeing
• 58:48
  Speaker 1: all the time, and I just don't think Filoni will
• 58:52
  Speaker 1: ever veer away from that if he is number one
• 58:56
  Speaker 1: in charge. Yeah, yep, h.
• 59:00
  Speaker 2: Figi all in the game, says fig You would also
• 59:03
  Speaker 2: be excited by the challenge of revitalizing slash rebooting the
• 59:06
  Speaker 2: Indiana Jones franchise as well. Completely agree, Completely agree.
• 59:14
  Speaker 1: And this would also again give a lot of precedents
• 59:19
  Speaker 1: to cry again. Although I saw the first episode of Willow,
• 59:25
  Speaker 1: I really enjoyed it. It would give another opportunity for
• 59:29
  Speaker 1: Willow to come back, so I think, because again, Fige
• 59:37
  Speaker 1: is a business guy. He knows these types of fans.
• 59:45
  Speaker 1: He has spent the last twenty something odd years in
• 59:52
  Speaker 1: this industry, maybe even more thirty plus years in this industry.
• 59:58
  Speaker 1: He's learned a thing or two. Correct with baloney, I'm
• 1:00:02
  Speaker 1: not gonna say that he hasn't learned a thing or two.
• 1:00:06
  Speaker 1: But I think he likes a specific thing and he
• 1:00:10
  Speaker 1: chases that one specific thing. Yeah, he is not going
• 1:00:15
  Speaker 1: to deviate and.
• 1:00:17
  Speaker 2: I think and I think that's something that showcases in
• 1:00:23
  Speaker 2: his portfolio versus Figee. Figee has a lot of experience
• 1:00:34
  Speaker 2: doing things and like he because I mean he like
• 1:00:39
  Speaker 2: he's worked on You Got Mail, for instance, like Geez Louise. Yeah,
• 1:00:45
  Speaker 2: so there's a lot of potential with getting him involved.
• 1:00:54
  Speaker 2: They could do really good things for stars. I'm not
• 1:00:58
  Speaker 2: I hate FIGI for sure, but I think he could
• 1:01:01
  Speaker 2: do a lot of good for Star Wars if he's
• 1:01:05
  Speaker 2: the only option I've got.
• 1:01:07
  Speaker 1: So yeah, a lot of exciting things coming before celebration,
• 1:01:17
  Speaker 1: a lot of exciting things happening after we will see.
• 1:01:21
  Speaker 1: So here, here's the thing. Do you think Kathleen makes
• 1:01:28
  Speaker 1: the announcement herself in celebration or since all of this
• 1:01:33
  Speaker 1: news is hit, he sits on it until the end
• 1:01:36
  Speaker 1: of the year.
• 1:01:38
  Speaker 2: I would think you would announce it celebration, okay, because
• 1:01:45
  Speaker 2: I mean it's still two months at this point, so.
• 1:01:49
  Speaker 1: I I would be Okay, guys, we've I want to
• 1:01:54
  Speaker 1: set something straight right now. We have given Kathleen Kennedy
• 1:02:00
  Speaker 1: the criticism she deserves. I'm gonna go ahead and say it,
• 1:02:03
  Speaker 1: the criticism she deserves. We've also championed for Kathleen Kennedy
• 1:02:09
  Speaker 1: on this show.
• 1:02:10
  Speaker 2: She has produced an incredible amount of films and worked
• 1:02:14
  Speaker 2: on so many good projects. Like you want to say, oh,
• 1:02:18
  Speaker 2: she's never worked on a gosh daring thing. She worked
• 1:02:21
  Speaker 2: on Indiana Jones for crying out loud, she worked on
• 1:02:23
  Speaker 2: the original Indiana Jones films. Like, She's produced some very
• 1:02:29
  Speaker 2: good films. So you cannot just sit here and go, oh, well,
• 1:02:34
  Speaker 2: Disney just wanted to be like the Forces female. Now
• 1:02:38
  Speaker 2: she's worked incredibly hard to get where she is.
• 1:02:42
  Speaker 1: She was good for the job, but now we need
• 1:02:47
  Speaker 1: somebody better. That's just the way it has to be.
• 1:02:53
  Speaker 1: I say that because if I was Kathleen, I would
• 1:02:58
  Speaker 1: be the pettiest bitch. It's like, Oh, everybody's gonna talk
• 1:03:03
  Speaker 1: about who's gonna replace me. Well, you ain't gonna know
• 1:03:06
  Speaker 1: until the day I leave, sitting on it, and i'd
• 1:03:10
  Speaker 1: be sitting on it i the two week's notice comes out.
• 1:03:16
  Speaker 2: I don't think so, because I think if she really
• 1:03:20
  Speaker 2: is gonna retire at the end of the year, I
• 1:03:23
  Speaker 2: think they want some transfer time and they want to
• 1:03:26
  Speaker 2: be able to go, hey, you know, I've earned my retirement.
• 1:03:30
  Speaker 2: But you know who's coming in, Who's coming in, Who's
• 1:03:35
  Speaker 2: coming in, Figgy's coming in or whatever.
• 1:03:39
  Speaker 1: Like you think they make the announcement at celebration for who's.
• 1:03:44
  Speaker 2: Yes, Because if you pick Figy for instance, Figy's gonna
• 1:03:47
  Speaker 2: need hangover time too, so you have to have that
• 1:03:52
  Speaker 2: transition time.
• 1:03:54
  Speaker 1: See. I wasn't expecting that I could understand the announcement
• 1:03:58
  Speaker 1: of the retirement at Celebrate, but the actual announcement of like, hey,
• 1:04:02
  Speaker 1: look who's taking my place? I wouldn't be expecting that.
• 1:04:07
  Speaker 2: No, I I really think you don't, like, she's not
• 1:04:11
  Speaker 2: gonna announce she's retiring without having the replacement they're ready
• 1:04:17
  Speaker 2: to announce, because you want the replacement to be able
• 1:04:25
  Speaker 2: to talk about what's coming next. You want them to
• 1:04:28
  Speaker 2: be able to talk about Sean Levy's movie. You don't
• 1:04:30
  Speaker 2: want somebody who's like, oh, yeah, I'm retiring, but you
• 1:04:33
  Speaker 2: know what, here's what's coming next, Like I'm gonna be
• 1:04:37
  Speaker 2: sitting on my ass on the beach drinking of martini.
• 1:04:41
  Speaker 1: Well I mean, but also scary thought, but something that
• 1:04:46
  Speaker 1: could very well happen. So people would just be prepared.
• 1:04:52
  Speaker 1: There is a good possibility that everything that is in
• 1:04:56
  Speaker 1: production currently will not necessarily be in production and or
• 1:05:05
  Speaker 1: actually release with the new Lucas with a new head yep.
• 1:05:10
  Speaker 2: Correct. So the only thing guaranteed at this point is
• 1:05:16
  Speaker 2: Manto and Grogu.
• 1:05:19
  Speaker 1: Yes, I will say, if Figi is the guy, we
• 1:05:25
  Speaker 1: can almost one hundred percent say Sean Lovey's movie is
• 1:05:28
  Speaker 1: also coming out.
• 1:05:30
  Speaker 2: Yes, I would say Sean Lovey's movie. And I really
• 1:05:33
  Speaker 2: just don't know how you don't hit James Mangold with
• 1:05:38
  Speaker 2: the pasco like the man has nothing else committed to
• 1:05:43
  Speaker 2: at the moment. Let him make his damn movie, like
• 1:05:47
  Speaker 2: obviously nothing's guaranteed. And I'm saying it, but I really
• 1:05:50
  Speaker 2: don't know how you don't say, yeah, write your movie,
• 1:05:53
  Speaker 2: James Mangold, like.
• 1:05:58
  Speaker 1: I agree? I agree? Is there anything else that we
• 1:06:04
  Speaker 1: want to add on this conversation of Baloney or Viking?
• 1:06:09
  Speaker 2: I don't think so I need to go wash my mouth.
• 1:06:13

  Speaker 2: just gonna I think it'll.
• 1:08:05
  Speaker 1: Be Yeah, I think it'll be an overall thought process
• 1:08:08
  Speaker 1: type of thing, especially since when we made the pivot
• 1:08:14
  Speaker 1: to Resistance season one. Being on this episode, I was like, Okay,
• 1:08:19
  Speaker 1: I can binge season one in three days again, And
• 1:08:22
  Speaker 1: then today was like, I didn't watch any of season one?
• 1:08:25
  Speaker 1: What do I do? And then I watched Star Wars
• 1:08:28
  Speaker 1: Explains playlist of the entire season at two point zero
• 1:08:34
  Speaker 1: speed and only got through the first seven episodes, so.
• 1:08:39
  Speaker 2: You did better than me. Do we just need to
• 1:08:43
  Speaker 2: cut here and go, okay, that was our main topic.
• 1:08:46
  Speaker 2: We'll talk about resistance later.
• 1:08:49
  Speaker 1: I mean we could we we we could we have
• 1:08:52
  Speaker 1: an hour. This is the longest episode that we've had
• 1:08:55
  Speaker 1: in quite some time, actually, so we could totally do
• 1:08:59
  Speaker 1: resistance on another day.
• 1:09:01
  Speaker 2: Welcome to the episode, y'all.
• 1:09:03
  Speaker 1: We could pivot, We're I was gonna say we could pivot.

  Speaker 1: I feel like we're a little bit committed, but not really.
• 1:09:09
  Speaker 1: It's really up to you, dude.
• 1:09:11
  Speaker 2: I didn't watch a single episode. I looked at the calendar,
• 1:09:15
  Speaker 2: I looked at the brain up and I was like, what,
• 1:09:16
  Speaker 2: what was I supposed to do? Again? And we said
• 1:09:20
  Speaker 2: we were going to do Resistance what Sunday.

• 1:11:24
  Speaker 1: forty people. The moment we shifted to the Super Sentai,
• 1:11:28
  Speaker 1: those numbers jumped by twenty by thirty. We are now
• 1:11:33
  Speaker 1: looking at about sixty to sixty five downloads per week
• 1:11:37
  Speaker 1: for these new episodes. A new series. That's wonderful. It
