The Avengers: Doomsday trailer has fans convinced there are two Doctor Dooms in this movie, and that one of them might not be Robert Downey Jr. at all. Frank and Squeaks break down the eye color, the two suits, and the Cillian Murphy voice theory, then look at what happens to Marvel when Kevin Feige's contract runs out in 2027. From there it turns into a full state of the franchises. The Feige succession list runs from Brad Winderbaum to Louis D'Esposito to one genuine wild card pick, before Star Wars gets put on the table: the Ahsoka trailer, Thrawn's return, Starfighter, and whether the Rey movie ever actually happens. Then Pirates of the Caribbean, where Disney is reportedly writing two competing scripts, and Frank pitches the real seventeenth century pirate queen whose story would beat both of them. Plus a Dungeon Crawler Carl check-in and a Question of the Week about how you would prove someone is an alien. 0:00 Intro and BlizzCon Countdown 1:34 Question of the Week: How Do You Test for an Alien 3:16 The Two Doctor Dooms Theory 11:05 Who Replaces Kevin Feige in 2027 22:36 Star Wars Without the Skywalker Name 29:33 Ahsoka, Thrawn, and the Sequel Era Gaps 34:15 Pirates of the Caribbean and Its Two Competing Scripts 46:22 Dungeon Crawler Carl Check-In Key takeaways: The two Doom theory rests on three small trailer details: the eyes reading green in one shot and closer to blue in another, two distinct suits, and a voice some fans think sounds more like Cillian Murphy than RDJ. There is precedent too, since dueling Dooms from different universes is the current main story in Marvel Rivals. Frank's argument for a recast is about longevity. RDJ's betrayal only works once as a surprise, so if Doom is meant to carry the MCU past Secret Wars, you need an actor you can keep around. The Feige succession shortlist: Brad Winderbaum brings television experience and would likely greenlight Midnight Sons immediately, Louis D'Esposito is the operations veteran who would need a creative partner like the Russos, and Frank's wild card is Iman Vellani, who is now writing comics for Marvel and Image. Both hosts want Star Wars to break from the Skywalker name completely, with Dave Filoni doing for the sequels what The Clone Wars did for the prequels. Frank also makes the case that Ahsoka, not Rey, is the real heir to the Anakin lineage. Disney has two Pirates scripts in play, one led by Margot Robbie as Red and one featuring younger versions of the original cast. Squeaks calls the Red version predictable, and Frank counters with Zheng Yi Sao, a real pirate commander the Chinese government eventually had to negotiate with instead of fight. Frank: "I'd actually respect Marvel for keeping a secret for once." Frank: "I've been hurt too many times by Kevin Feige." Squeaks: "It's time to go away from the Skywalker in total." Frank: "The true descendant to Anakin is not Rey. It's not even Luke. Frankly, it is Ahsoka." Squeaks: "That's the same thing we see everywhere. Find something new."

We put the all-new Ahsoka season two teaser trailer under the microscope as we breakdown the whole thing, shot-by-shot, following it's debut at D23. Hayden Christensen spoke about his desire to work with Natalie Portman in a Clone Wars-based live-action show.

WSTR Galactic Public Access: Queen Jamilla, Star Wars News, and Convention Rants This episode starts with a deep look at Queen Jamilla, a brief but meaningful Naboo leader in Attack of the Clones, and uses her to explore Naboo politics, democracy, and how Star Wars makes even tiny characters feel important. Todd also covers a few Star Wars news items, then wraps with personal updates on Fortnite, Fan Expo Chicago, and the challenges of crowded convention venues. Key topics Todd explains who Queen Jamilla is A Naboo monarch with less than two minutes of screen time, but enough presence to spark a long character discussion. He walks through her role as Queen Amidala's successor and her place in the prequel-era timeline. Why Queen Jamilla matters despite limited screen time Todd argues that even minor political figures help Star Wars feel like a lived-in galaxy. He connects Jamilla's short appearance to the larger sense of Naboo continuity and political realism. Naboo politics and democratic idealism Jamilla's line about keeping faith in the Republic becomes the core theme of the segment. Todd contrasts her trust in institutions with Amidala's more experienced, harder-earned political perspective. Jamilla's relationship to Padmé Amidala Todd reads Jamilla as someone seeking advice and guidance from a respected predecessor. Their interaction is framed as mutual trust, with Padmé representing experience and Jamilla representing idealism. The threat of war in the background The discussion touches on the growing separatist crisis and the early signs of the Clone Wars. Todd views Jamilla as somewhat sheltered from the galaxy's larger collapse, which shapes her optimism. Naboo's social structure and leadership Todd questions the age and selection of Naboo's queens, noting the youth of both Padmé and Jamilla. He suggests Naboo could have benefited from more integration, especially between humans and Gungans. Why Star Wars includes brief political characters Todd says these characters show that life continues outside the main heroes. He connects this to how the franchise builds scale, realism, and background texture. News of the week: Star Wars: Starfighter Todd covers reporting that the new film was inspired by The Outsiders. He highlights the gritty, loyalty-driven tone and the pairing of a rugged older lead with a younger companion. News of the week: canceled Mandalorian versus Jedi game He reacts to the leaked gameplay and fan disappointment over another canceled Star Wars title. Todd compares it to other scrapped projects and laments how often promising games never release. News of the week: Ewan McGregor wants back in Todd discusses McGregor pitching ideas for more Obi-Wan content while on the set of Ahsoka. He suggests flashback storytelling could be a smart way to bring Obi-Wan into future projects. Cantina Chat: Fortnite and Fan Expo Chicago Todd talks about collecting 118 sprites in Fortnite and enjoying the new season called Override. He also shares a strong opinion that the Rosemont Convention Center is overcrowded and not as good as C2E2.

This week we take a fascinating detour into the world of Star Wars fan filmmaking by looking at a project that recreates a deleted lightsaber duel between Anakin Skywalker and Count Dooku from Revenge of the Sith, reimagined entirely in the visual style of The Clone Wars. Although the completed animation lasts barely thirty seconds, we quickly discover that the real achievement lies in the filmmaker's six-minute breakdown of the creative process. Rather than producing a straightforward "how-to", the creator reveals the artistic thinking behind every major decision, turning what could have been a simple fan recreation into a thoughtful exploration of adaptation, animation and cinematic language.Our discussion begins with the creator's production workflow, examining the challenges of rebuilding facial models, refining lighting, solving animation problems and developing convincing lightsaber effects. We discuss how the film succeeds because it focuses less on software techniques than on creative problem-solving, showing how artistic decisions emerge through experimentation rather than following a fixed recipe. The making-of becomes every bit as engaging as the finished animation itself.From there, the conversation moves beyond technical craft to consider the film as an act of interpretation rather than imitation. Instead of copying Nick Gillard's original choreography shot-for-shot, the animator recognises that live-action movement must be translated into the visual grammar of The Clone Wars. We explore how anticipation, exaggerated silhouettes, camera language and carefully staged movement preserve the emotional intent of the original while allowing it to function naturally within animation. This leads into a broader discussion about adaptation, visual storytelling and what distinguishes thoughtful fan filmmaking from straightforward recreation.We also examine how the animation reflects George Lucas's long-established idea of "visual rhyming", drawing subtle connections between Anakin's duel with Dooku and Luke Skywalker's confrontation with Darth Vader in Return of the Jedi. The conversation considers how character movement, camera placement and composition reinforce Palpatine's manipulation of events while deepening the narrative through recurring visual motifs that span the Star Wars saga.Perhaps the most unexpected part of the discussion comes when we compare the film with practice-based research. We suggest that the completed animation functions as the creative artefact, while the accompanying making-of operates much like an academic exegesis, revealing the questions, methods and countless creative decisions that remain invisible within the finished work itself. This becomes one of the episode's central themes, prompting a wider conversation about how creative knowledge is communicated and why understanding process often changes our appreciation of the final outcome.The episode concludes by returning to broader questions about animation and performance. We discuss why motion captured from live actors cannot simply be transferred directly into stylised animation, how movement must be reshaped to feel believable, and why the creative journey documented throughout the film ultimately proves more rewarding than the destination. In the end, we agree that this is not simply a Star Wars fan project, but an insightful study of adaptation, visual storytelling and the craft of animation itself.Episode timestamps00:00 Introduction.01:00 Damien introduces this month's film and explains why the creator's production process interested him more than the finished animation.03:00 Phil explores the making-of, discussing workflow, lighting, modelling and creative problem-solving, before reflecting on why process-driven filmmaking can be so compelling.08:30 Tracy examines the project as an exercise in adaptation, exploring how live-action choreography is translated into the visual language of The Clone Wars rather than simply copied.16:50 A discussion of George Lucas's visual storytelling, cinematic "rhyming", character performance and the craftsmanship behind the animation.22:25 The conversation turns to practice-based research, comparing the making-of to an exegesis that reveals the creative thinking hidden beneath the finished film.28:00 Phil argues that the making-of is the real finished work, prompting a discussion about creative intention and the value of explaining artistic decisions.31:10 We broaden the conversation to animation, motion capture, theatrical performance and why animated movement must differ from live action.37:30 Final reflections on creativity, adaptation and why the journey behind the artwork ultimately becomes the most memorable part of the film.Credits -Co-hosts: Phil Rice, Damien Valentine, Tracy HarwoodProducer: Damien ValentineEditor: Phil RiceMusic: Phil Rice & Suno AI

LeeAnn goes on an epic rant about how much she hates Pong Krell, Lauren talks about laws regarding military uniforms and why it's significant that Krell pitted the Clones against each other, and we both constantly wish someone would just call Kenobi already LOL!

SUMMARYJacob and Evan discuss three very different Clone Wars episodes, beginning with the Republic's political failure on Pantora before shifting to the survival-focused Ahsoka arc in Episodes 21 and 22. While neither host finds much to enjoy in the Senate episode, they explore how it reinforces the Republic's growing corruption and inability to act.The conversation then focuses on Ahsoka's capture by the Trandoshans, examining how surviving without Anakin or the Jedi becomes a defining step in her development. They discuss her leadership, the long-standing conflict between Trandoshans and Wookiees, Chewbacca's appearance, Anakin's tendency to blame himself, and whether this experience prepared Ahsoka for everything that would come later in her journey.KEYWORDSClone Wars Season 3 Episodes 21-22Clone Wars Episode 4 Sphere of InfluenceAhsoka TanoTrandoshansChewbaccaWookieesPantoraAhsoka leadershipJedi trialsAnakin SkywalkerClone Wars discussionStar Wars podcastCHAPTERS00:00 - Introduction and overview of Episodes 4, 21 & 2203:44 - Why the Senate episodes don't resonate07:30 - Why couldn't the Jedi intervene on Pantora?10:50 - Transition to Ahsoka's survival arc13:08 - Trandoshan hunters and the premise of the arc14:47 - The Wookiee vs. Trandoshan rivalry explained16:19 - Should Jedi abandon their morals to survive?18:43 - Anakin's guilt and fear of failing Ahsoka21:53 - Creature details, trophies and hidden environmental storytelling27:15 - Fake sponsor: Evan's private hunting island28:24 - Does this arc make Ahsoka a true leader?32:36 - How this prepares Ahsoka for life without the Jedi34:49 - Would Anakin rescuing Ahsoka have made her weaker?38:07 - Is Ahsoka more like Anakin or Obi-Wan?43:19 - Is Ahsoka already ready for the Jedi Trials?

SUMMARYJacob and Evan revisit The Clone Wars Season 3 Citadel arc (Episodes 18–20), exploring why this prison break remains one of the series' most memorable storylines. They discuss the high stakes of rescuing Even Piell, Echo's apparent death, and the growing philosophical divide between the Jedi and military leaders like Tarkin.The conversation dives into whether Tarkin's criticism of the Jedi holds any truth, how much of Darth Vader can already be seen in Anakin, and the Republic's gradual transformation toward the Empire. They also compare The Clone Wars to Rebels, debate where the Citadel arc ranks among the show's best, and reflect on the incredible highs—and occasional lows—of the series as a whole.KEYWORDSClone Wars Citadel ArcClone Wars Season 3 Episodes 18-20The CitadelTarkinAnakin SkywalkerDarth Vader foreshadowingEven PiellEcho Clone TrooperJedi GeneralsRepublic vs EmpireClone Wars discussionStar Wars podcastCHAPTERS00:00 - Introduction and Citadel arc overview01:00 - Story recap of Episodes 18–2002:27 - Why the Citadel is one of the strongest Clone Wars arcs05:22 - Echo's apparent death and emotional impact06:49 - Fake sponsor: Tarkin Tactical Leadership Academy07:52 - Was Tarkin actually right about the Jedi?14:14 - Were the Jedi doomed when they became generals?17:30 - How much Darth Vader is already visible in Anakin24:31 - Republic vs. Empire: Are they really that different?28:05 - Anakin and Tarkin's evolving relationship33:31 - Ahsoka's importance to the mission35:10 - Was the mission worth the cost?43:10 - Citadel training foreshadowing and Domino Squad connections48:05 - Ranking the Citadel arc among Clone Wars storylines55:00 - Clone Wars vs. Rebels and the series' greatest strengths

Howdy, spacers. Thanks for tuning in to another episode of the podcast. We are moving right along, fleshing out more of Maul's plans for escaping Janix.The Empire has arrived. Everyone is in danger. Jedi, police, civilians—everyone will suffer at their hands. We've also seen the introduction of a new character:Inquisitor Marrok.While not a new character, we are learning more about him. First introduced in Ahsoka, we now get to hear Marrok's voice for the first time. My early criticism of Maul was that his design was great, if a little obvious in its inspiration. That, and we really didn't know anything about him until three years after the prequel trilogy wrapped with Revenge of the Sith.Thanks to The Clone Wars, we now know Maul was a huge problem—not just for the Jedi, but for the CIS and the soon-to-be Emperor, too. I am not sure who decided to dig Maul out of the trash and develop his character further. Filoni? I do not think so. Lucas? Not sure. Kennedy? Perhaps.If she thought there was a way to sell more Maul action figures, she would make it work. Regardless of where the idea came from, one could imagine how much better Attack of the Clones and Revenge of the Sith would have been if there had been a third party like Maul that all sides would have had to deal with.Yes, the story arc in The Clone Wars is great. I need to sit down and watch the series again—not just for this podcast, but because so much of everything that has been released since is tied back to it: Rebels, The Mandalorian, Ahsoka, etc.I have ranted long enough. Why I could not bring this up when Big Jake was here, I do not know.Thank you for listening.—LucaVisit the blog: https://starwarsrewatchpodcast.wordpress.comJoin us on Discord.Follow us on X: https://x.com/SWRewatchPodSubscribe on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@Star_WarsRe-WatchPodcastSubscribe on Apple Podcasts: https://podcasts.apple.com/Subscribe on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/#StarWars #DarthMaul #MaulShadowLord #StarWarsPodcast #StarWarsRewatch#InquisitorMarrok #Marrok #Ahsoka #CloneWars#TheCloneWars #StarWarsLore#StarWarsTheory #StarWarsExplained#StarWarsCanon #Sith#GalacticEmpire #DaveFiloni#GeorgeLucas #Lucasfilm #DisneyPlus#Rebels #TheMandalorian#RevengeOfTheSith #AttackOfTheClones#PhantomMenace #Palpatine #SamWitwer#GeekCulture #SciFiPodcast #YouTubePodcast

1999. 1999. Episode I: The Phantom Menace, it was a tale well well WELL documented in fandom circles LOL LOL LOL hahahahahahahahahahah obviously, then IT HAPPENED -- a REALLY cool sick looking villain was shockingly CUT IN HALF and fell down a trash space shoot. Many were taken aback, NOT only cause WE collectively watch THE PHANTOM MENACE, but what a WASTE of a villain and the potential this DARTH MAUL brought the the Sabacc table. And then came 2008, the DAWN of the CLONE WARS animated series, a show THAT as it went along was slowly but surely "mending" the Perquel films, most notably the space between Episode II & Episode III, but WE did NOT see THIS one coming (HA neither did Dave Filoni to be PERFECTLY honest), a mandate to bring DARTH MAUL back to life, hence fourth CLONE WARS would be dubbed (at least here at Fandom Awakens Radio HQ) the MAUL apology TOUR LOL LOL LOL hahahahahahahahah Darth Maul officially returned in Star Wars: The Clone Wars at the end of Season 4, in the episode titled "Brothers" (Season 4, Episode 21). In this episode, it was revealed he survived his bisection by Obi-Wan Kenobi in The Phantom Menace and has been living in exile on the junk world of Lotho Minor. His arc continued directly into the Season 4 finale, "Revenge" (Season 4, Episode 22), where his brother, Savage Opress, helps restore his sanity and cybernetic legs so they can hunt down Kenobi. Granted EVERYTIME Maul was brought up in the CLONE WARS, everything felt like a STOP on the MAUL apology TOUR, as the show clearly continued to add layer upon layer to the PT mythology, THAT was clearly to BIG too EXPANSIVE for three films THAT of course brings us to THIS. After the Clone Wars, Maul plots to rebuild his criminal syndicate on a planet untouched by the Empire. Maul -Shadow Lord STOP on the MAUL apology TOUR On the premier episode of JUST MAUL!!!

SUMMARYJacob and Evan tackle one of the most debated stories in all of Star Wars: the Mortis arc from The Clone Wars Season 3. They explore whether Mortis is a real place or a Force vision, discuss the mysterious Father, Son, and Daughter, and examine what the arc says about balance, destiny, and the nature of the Force itself.The conversation dives into Anakin's vision of becoming Darth Vader, whether destiny is fixed or flexible, and why the arc raises fascinating philosophical questions while leaving surprisingly few lasting consequences for the overall Clone Wars story. They also discuss George Lucas' explanation of balance in the Force, the connection to the World Between Worlds, and why this remains one of Star Wars' most divisive storylines.KEYWORDSMortis arc explainedClone Wars Season 3 Episodes 15-17Mortis godsThe Father Son and DaughterAnakin SkywalkerDarth Vader visionBalance in the ForceWorld Between WorldsGeorge Lucas Force balanceStar Wars philosophyClone Wars discussionStar Wars loreCHAPTERS00:00 - Introduction and Mortis arc overview02:22 - Summary of the Mortis storyline05:02 - Fake sponsor: Holocron Plus06:29 - What is Mortis?

What happens when the people who raised you decide you're guilty before you get a chance to prove otherwise? Matthew and Erin spend this episode of Star Wars Generations on one of “The Clone Wars”' most consequential stretches, season five's “Sabotage” through “The Wrong Jedi,” where Ahsoka Tano is framed for bombing the Jedi Temple, expelled from the Order, and left to clear her own name while the people who trained her hesitate to have her back.They get into why the Jedi's rigid rulebook makes the whole system brittle, and how Barriss Offee's betrayal lands differently than Pong Krell's ever did. Ventress and Ahsoka's unlikely alliance gets airtime too, along with a devastating Padawan braid scene and a theory about how much Palpatine actually orchestrated. So why didn't Ahsoka come back in time to help Anakin before it was too late?Full show notes and resourcesPaul Hoppe's book: Friday Night Is My Monday Morning.

Dune Part Three just dropped its IMAX trailer, Naruto is finally getting a big-budget live-action movie, and Freddy Krueger is coming back in a full Nightmare on Elm Street reboot. Frank and Squeaks break down a stacked week of trailers, teasers, and franchise news to figure out which of these actually have a shot. Along the way they react to the Shrek 5 trailer and its new animation style, size up the Crystal Lake teaser and its Pamela Voorhees focus, get hyped for the canon 1994 Ghostbusters animated series with Dan Aykroyd and Jack Quaid attached, and debate whether DC's Mr. Terrific series proves James Gunn is playing the long game after Supergirl. Plus a spoiler-friendly Dungeon Crawler Carl book club check-in and this week's recommendations, from Death Stranding 2 to the Predator Badlands comic mini-series. And the question of the week: if the X-Men ran the government, who gets the White House? Timestamps and Topics 0:00 Intro and Question of the Week: Which X-Men Should Run the Government? 5:18 Dune Part Three IMAX Trailer Reaction 12:36 Shrek 5 Trailer and the New Animation Style 16:16 Crystal Lake Teaser: The Friday the 13th Prequel Series 19:35 Naruto Live-Action Movie News and Casting 24:46 Nightmare on Elm Street Reboot at Paramount 28:49 Ghostbusters Animated Series Coming to Netflix 32:06 DC News: Mr. Terrific Series, Supergirl Thoughts, and Lobo's Future 41:49 Dungeon Crawler Carl Book Club Corner 50:04 Network Updates and Recommendations of the Week Key Takeaways The Dune Part Three trailer suggests the movie is expanding small moments from the book, like the worm heist, into major action set pieces, and it may be the biggest departure from the source material yet. Naruto's live-action movie has real momentum: director Destin Daniel Cretton is attached, creator Masashi Kishimoto has given his blessing, and a global casting search is underway for Team 7. The Nightmare on Elm Street reboot lands at Paramount with the Wes Craven estate involved and the team behind Barbarian and Weapons attached, and the premise holds up better in a modern setting than most 80s slashers. The new Ghostbusters animated series is set in 1994 New York, is canon, and has Dan Aykroyd producing, with Jack Quaid in the voice cast. DC greenlighting a Mr. Terrific series after Supergirl's soft box office signals James Gunn is prioritizing long-term world building over chasing safe bets. The Crystal Lake teaser centers Pamela Voorhees, played by Linda Cardellini, raising the question of whether a Friday the 13th story can work with Jason mostly offscreen. Quotes "You go to sleep, Freddy's in your mind. Nightmare on Elm Street is one of those stories that actually could work today just fine." "If I were a Naruto fan, these are all the stars lining up that I'd want to line up." "I think this is going to be the Clone Wars of Ghostbusters." "If you were to cut every part of Lobo out of this movie, you would not feel his absence in the slightest. That being said, Jason Momoa as Lobo nailed it." "Everything that's ever mentioned or anything that's put into his bag, you can assume will be used." Call to Action Enjoyed the episode?

In this discussion, CoopaDil & KRizz peer into the decline of the Jedi Order before the events of Order 66, analyzing whether they were already in decline or trapped in a changing galaxy. Also discussed are the political, structural, and philosophical shifts that led to their fall, offering new perspectives on the prequel era.Key Topics: Jedi influence versus independence - political pressure and systemic change - the role of Order 66 in the Jedi's fall - the impact of the Clone Wars on Jedi identity - Palpatine's manipulation and observation of the Jedi - structural pressures leading to decline.Takeaways: The Jedi were at their peak in influence but not independence sent; political and systemic pressure is gradually eroded Jedi authority; Order 66 was the culmination of a slow decline, not the start; the Clone Wars shifted Jedi roles from peacekeepers to soldiers; Palpatine's strategic observation was key to their downfall!Subscribe, rate and leave us a 5-star written review on Apple Podcasts, Deepcast.fm, Spotify or GoodPods.

SUMMARYIn this episode, Jacob and Evan break down The Clone Wars Season 3 episodes 12–14, following Asajj Ventress' betrayal by Count Dooku, her return to the Nightsisters, and the creation of Savage Opress. They discuss how the arc expands Ventress' character, explores her tragic backstory, and lays the foundation for Darth Maul's eventual return.The discussion centers heavily on the Sith Rule of Two, questioning whether the endless cycle of betrayal between master and apprentice is fundamentally flawed. Along the way, they dive into Count Dooku's incredible combat abilities, the Nightsisters' influence, Savage Opress' transformation into a living weapon, Clone Commandos, Delta Squad, and why this arc remains one of the most important turning points in The Clone Wars.KEYWORDSClone Wars Season 3 Episodes 12-14Asajj VentressSavage OpressCount DookuDarth MaulNightsistersRule of TwoClone Wars Monster arcDelta SquadStar Wars lore discussionSith philosophyClone Wars podcastChapters:00:00 - Introduction and episode format01:39 - Recap of the Ventress, Nightsisters and Savage Opress arc05:07 - Fake sponsor: "God Mattresses"06:28 - The Sith Rule of Two and endless betrayal15:29 - Dooku betrays Ventress and her backstory27:35 - Ventress' assassination attempt against Count Dooku35:02 - Dooku recruits a new apprentice from Dathomir36:21 - Savage Opress' trials and transformation39:45 - Clone Commandos, Delta Squad and Savage's first mission56:14 - Savage turns against both Dooku and Ventress01:01:23 - Darth Maul reveal and first reactions01:08:44 - High points, low points and final thoughts on the arc
Before he became the paranoid revolutionary from Rogue One, Saw Gerrera was a scrappy fighter who thought sheer force could win a war. Matthew, Alex, and Erin head back to "The Clone Wars" Season 5 for the Onderon arc, the four episodes that introduce Saw and his sister Steela Gerrera as they lead a rebellion against a separatist-backed puppet king, with Jedi advisors Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Ahsoka training them in guerrilla warfare.The hosts dig into what makes Saw and Steela such effective foils for each other, her patience against his instinct to just go fight, and trace how her death reshapes him into the extremist audiences meet years later. There's a droideka lesson that doubles as a thesis statement and a Hondo Ohnaka cameo with real consequences. What does it cost to keep fighting after you lose the one person holding you together?Full show notes and resources**************************************************************************This episode is a production of Star Wars Generations, an Ethical Panda podcast and part of the TruStory FM Entertainment Podcast Network.

WSTR Galactic Public Access — Episode 436: Rodians In this episode of WSTR Galactic Public Access, Todd Hoffman returns to the show to continue the Rishi's Species segment, this time focusing on the Rodians—the reptilian, swamp-dwelling species best known for Greedo, the iconic bounty hunter from Star Wars: A New Hope. Todd explores what makes Rodians so recognizable, from their bug-like eyes and suction-cup fingers to their rough, pebbly skin and reputation as cunning hunters. The conversation looks at how their species is portrayed across Star Wars lore, including appearances in the Cantina, the Clone Wars, Return of the Jedi, Rebels, and the Bad Batch, and asks whether Greedo has unfairly become the defining Rodian in fan memory. The episode also digs into the broader cultural and storytelling potential of Rodians, comparing them to Mandalorians, discussing their possible role in bounty hunting and crime dramas, and imagining what kind of Star Wars series could center a Rodian lead. Along the way, Todd touches on behind-the-scenes trivia, including the evolution of Greedo's name, production notes, and the voice work that helped shape the character. News of the Week Todd covers three Star Wars headlines: "May the Force Be With You" was ranked the best Star Wars quote of all time in a recent Parade article Hasbro revealed a Jaina and Jacen Solo Black Series two-pack Reports suggest Star Wars: Starfighter footage may have been shown at a Disney cinema event Cantina Chat The episode closes with a personal catch-up: Carla is traveling for wedding shower celebrations Heather has officially embraced her cat-lady era Todd shares family updates, Father's Day gifts, and recent gaming talk, including Red Dead Redemption, Fortnite, and anticipation for Grand Theft Auto VI Call to Action WSTR invites listeners to share their thoughts on Rodians, Greedo, and underrated Star Wars species via social media, voicemail, or email. The show also teases next week's topic: the 40th anniversary of Labyrinth.
