Thirteen years after The Empire Strikes Back, the long-delayed finale arrived in 1996 — six episodes that brought the original trilogy to a close. Funding cuts had stalled production for more than a decade, but the conclusion was completed at last, with Anthony Daniels returning one final time as C-3PO, joined by Brock Peters as Darth Vader, John Lithgow's Yoda, and Ed Asner as Jabba the Hutt. Still carried by John Williams' score and the original sound effects, it's Return of the Jedi as you've never heard it. | #RRStarWarsLook for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

In 1983, the team behind NPR's record-breaking Star Wars returned for the darker, colder middle chapter — The Empire Strikes Back, told across ten episodes. Mark Hamill and Anthony Daniels were back as Luke and C-3PO, Billy Dee Williams reprised Lando Calrissian from the film, and a young John Lithgow voiced Yoda, all set to the original sound effects and John Williams' score. From the frozen wastes of Hoth to the clouds of Bespin, it's the Star Wars sequel as you've never heard it. | #RRStarWarsLook for this podcast on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, iHeart Radio, Amazon Music, Pandora, TuneIn Radio, and other podcast apps.

Merriam-Webster's Word of the Day for June 12, 2026 is: blandishment • BLAN-dish-munt • noun Blandishments are nice things that you say or do to convince someone to do something. Blandishment is usually used in the plural form. // Despite the many blandishments of the dressing room attendant, we were resolved not to overspend at the fashion boutique. See the entry > Examples: “… he sought to turn the attack around by saying his vast wealth—which has allowed him to richly fund his political endeavors—made him immune to the blandishments of plutocrats and corporate interests.” — Mark Z. Barabak, The Los Angeles Times, 23 Feb. 2026 Did you know? When Star Wars audiences first meet former smuggler Lando Calrissian—played iconically by Billy Dee Williams—in The Empire Strikes Back, he is full of blandishments, offering flattery (telling Leia “You truly belong here with us among the clouds”) and gifts to our heroes in the form of food and drink (“Will you join me for a little refreshment?”) in order to entice them into what we soon discover is a trap. Notably, before the whole sordid deal goes down (and before Lando's eventual redemption), Han Solo calls him “an old smoothie.” Lando's verbal smoothness can be linked to blandishment too: the word was formed from the verb blandish, meaning “to coax with flattery.” Blandish ultimately comes from the Latin adjective blandus, meaning “influencing others by flattery,” source too of our adjective bland, which typically describes things boring and flavorless but which can also mean “smooth and soothing in manner or quality”—a meaning that also applies to everyone's favorite Cloud City administrator.

In the sixty-fifth episode of Making Mt. Rushmore, host/moderator Steve Riddle welcomes Matt Ferrell and James Gruenberg to discuss which Star Wars Characters deserve a place on their respective lists. Is Darth Vader/Anakin Skywalker a no-brainer? What about Luke Skywalker? Does Han Solo grab a spot? Does Obi-Wan Kenobi and Emperor Palpatine deserve a place? After that, they discuss which Star Wars Movies/TV Shows will be part of that grouping. Can you argue that Return of the Jedi shouldn't get a spot? Will the Empire Strikes Back be included? Is Rogue One: A Star Wars Story in the conversation? What about Revenge of the Sith or the Bad Batch?
In this episode I chat with visual effects supervisor, second unit director and digital pre-visualisation pioneer David Dozoretz about a career that traces the entire arc of how modern filmmaking shifted from analogue to digital — and how, somewhere in the middle of that shift, pre-vis went from a curious side experiment to a fundamental part of how films get planned and shot. David talks about growing up in Phoenix, falling in love with cinema the day his sister snuck him into the projection booth at the Cine Capri during The Empire Strikes Back asteroid sequence, and how a chance encounter with a Lucasfilm coffee-table book in a university bookstore set him on the path to ILM. He arrived at ILM in 1991 as an intern, became known as "the computer nerd in the art department and the art nerd in the computer department," and ended up bridging the gap between the two as digital began to take over.We get into his first feature — the original Jurassic Park — his year-long apprenticeship in the legendary ILM art department alongside Doug Chiang, Ty Ellingson, Harley Jessup, Mark Moore and Stefan Dechant, and the time he had to split a $1,400 piece of 3D software into two $700 purchase orders to get round ILM's general-manager sign-off threshold. It's a small story but it tells you everything about the era — digital tools were arriving faster than the institutions running things knew what to do with them.A big part of the conversation focuses on the early years of digital pre-visualisation. David did the first major digital previs sequence in mainstream cinema — the train and helicopter sequence in Brian De Palma's Mission: Impossible, the work John Knoll asked him to do that's now credited as one of the reasons the sequence got greenlit. From there he went on to spend four years working with George Lucas on The Phantom Menace, building the entire pod race in previs (a 25-minute version that almost no one has ever seen got whittled down to the 9-and-a-half-minute final), establishing his now-famous three rules of previs (no textures, no motion blur, no shadows) and then immediately having to break all three of them to convey the sense of speed and floating in the pod race itself.There are some lovely George Lucas stories too, including the time George walked into the editing room and reacted to David's droid-factory post-vis with "honestly, I was a little worried about that one — looks like it's gonna work," and the moment when George trailed off mid-sentence trying to describe a desert landscape and David — a 21-year-old kid — finished the thought with "John Ford?", which David thinks is the moment Lucas decided he could trust him. Later in the conversation we move into David's own company, Persistence of Vision, and his work on Titan A.E., Behind Enemy Lines, JJ Abrams' Mission: Impossible III, the 2009 Star Trek reboot (including the previs realisation that Vulcan being orange meant the costumes — originally designed to evoke 70s NASA — had to be completely redesigned) and Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D, where David served as second unit director on the first digital stereoscopic film and the production was effectively beta-testing the cameras Jim Cameron was building for Avatar. We finish on Zafari, David's 52-episode children's animated series rendered almost entirely in Unreal Engine — one of the earliest large-scale uses of real-time rendering in mainstream animation, which saved 30% of the production budget — and on a wider conversation about AI, the future of filmmaking, the importance of human authenticity, and David's lovely closing thought: study the art and history of cinema, study the drawing, not just the pencil. The tools will keep changing. The language won't. Topics coveredGrowing up in Phoenix and the Cine Capri projection-booth moment during EmpireDiscovering The Art of Special Effects book and the road to an ILM internshipJoining the ILM art department in 1991 alongside Doug Chiang, Ty Ellingson, Harley Jessup and Mark MooreBridging the art and computer departments as digital arrived at ILMThe $1,400 / two-$700-purchase-orders workaround for buying 3D softwareWorking on the original Jurassic Park as his first featureDoing previs for the Star Wars Special Editions (the dewback shots, Mos Eisley fly-bys)John Knoll asking him to previsualise the train-and-helicopter sequence on Mission: ImpossibleHow that previs is credited as one of the reasons the sequence got greenlitJoining the new Skywalker Ranch art department under George LucasFour years on The Phantom Menace and the 25-minute version of the pod raceThe three rules of previs (no textures, no motion blur, no shadows) — and breaking all of them to make the pod race workGeorge Lucas reacting to the droid factory post-vis ("looks like it's gonna work")The Jake Lloyd head-turn morph that saved a reshootWhy pod racers go 500 mph in some shots and 2,000 mph in othersThe cinematographer who declared previs "shit" — and was overruled by the studioFounding Persistence of Vision and the move from Lucas to wider HollywoodTitan A.E. and the Don Bluth / Gary Goldman Phoenix animation studioBehind Enemy Lines and pre-vising aerial actionMission: Impossible III with JJ Abrams — the Shanghai building swing and the windmill helicopter sequenceThe Star Trek reboot orbital skydive — and how previs forced a costume redesign because Vulcan was orangeJourney to the Center of the Earth 3D as second unit director, using Jim Cameron's pre-Avatar camerasZafari, Unreal Engine, and saving 30% of an animated TV budget through real-time renderingThe shift from analogue to digital to 3D to real-time to AI — and what stays constantDennis Muren's wisdom on authenticity at the Jurassic Park wrap partyWhy a human premium will remain in an AI-augmented filmmaking worldGeorge Lucas, John Ford and the moment a 21-year-old earned a director's trustThe advice David gives to young filmmakers: study the drawing, not just the pencilSupport the Podcast This podcast is completely independent and made possible by listener support.

We loved the cinematography of Maul: Shadow Lord so much that it inspired us to go back to our roots and analyze the cinematography of the Star Wars Original Trilogy. We specifically focus on Luke Skywalker in three character-building scenes: the binary sunset from A New Hope, when he meets Yoda in Empire Strikes Back, and when he resists the Emperor in Return of the Jedi. We discuss lighting, costumes, framing, and so much more! We hope you enjoy this deep dive into one of cinema's most iconic characters.Watch our special EXTRA 200th episode for free on our Patreon (it's different from this audio episode): https://www.patreon.com/posts/its-our-200th-156470434Support us on Patreon for as little as $3/month: patreon.com/MostThingsKenobiInstagram: most_things_kenobiWebsite: mostthingskenobi.comYouTube: MostThingsKenobiThreads: most_things_kenobiTumblr: MostThingsKenobi

It's as if this is Maul's own personal version of The Empire Strikes Back! He loses almost everything in this episode as the Empire closes in and his team is dropping like flies, and his temporary allies abandon him. What's a former Sith Lord to do? Not only that, but his droid parts are faultering, and he feels the pain, limiting his fighting abilities, and the Inquisitors take advantage. This is not how he planned things.

The Sheep Detectives is a live-action talking animals cozy murder mystery comedy directed by Kyla Balda, whose previous movie credits are pretty much exclusively about animation. It’s based on a German-language novel, Three Bags Full, by Leonie Swann. As a PG-rated murder mystery, it’s maybe doing surprisingly well at the box office. And: Marty, Life Is Short is a Netflix celebrity documentary about the life and work of Martin Short. It’s directed by Lawrence Kasdan (who wrote The Empire Strikes Back and Raiders of the Lost Ark and wrote and directed Body Heat, The Big Chill, The Accidental Tourist, and more). It includes new interviews with Short, Eugene Levy, Steve Martin, John Mulaney, Catherine O’Hara, Steven Spielberg, and more.

"No, I am your father." This week on the pod, its a Be Kind Rewind! Dave & Cody revisit The Empire Strikes Back (1980) — the movie that turns 46 this year and might still be the greatest sequel ever made. We dig into what holds up (everything — the tone, Yoda, the carbonite scene, Harrison Ford ad-libbing the most iconic line in film history), what doesn't (Leia kissing Luke is a problem, and we need to talk about it), and the sincerity in this movie that almost nothing made today can replicate. Plus: Cody makes the boldest defense of "Last Jedi Luke" you'll ever hear, Dave argues that Lando Calrissian has been wrongly slandered for 46 years, and we explore the wild behind-the-scenes stories. We give a Pastor's Corner on "Do or do not, there is no try," and pick our winners and losers. Bonus: the Q'orianka Kilcher / James Cameron Avatar lawsuit. Will Masters of the Universe be a box office disaster? And a Terrence Malick rant nobody asked for.
I get to tackle both the novel and comic book version of the first official STAR WARS sequel: SPLINTER OF THE MIND'S EYE. Does this has pretty solid continuity despite being conjured up before EMPIRE STRIKES BACK? What details are different in the comic book version?

Hosts Josh and Jamie and special guest writer-director Alex Russell (LURKER, THE BEAR, BEEF) discuss 90s revisionist westerns co-starring a villainous Gene Hackman with a double feature of Clint Eastwood's iconic, Oscar-winning and deeply weary/melancholy funeral for the genre UNFORGIVEN (1992) + Sam Raimi's playfully manic cartoon of the same archetypes and iconography in THE QUICK AND THE DEAD (1995).

Mike and Chris close the book on Season Seven with "The Conspirators," a 1978 episode that takes Columbo somewhere the series rarely ventured: the murky, morally weighted world of real geopolitical conflict. Clive Revill — Tony-nominated stage actor, Matilda's trainer in the boxing kangaroo film of the same name, and the original voice of Emperor Palpatine in The Empire Strikes Back — plays Joe Devlin, an Irish poet and public charmer who moonlights as a gun-runner for the IRA. Devlin doesn't irritate Columbo the way most killers do — he disarms him. They exchange verse, play darts, share whiskey, and trade jokes about their respective cultures, two sides of the same immigrant coin. We weigh whether all that conviviality comes at the cost of tension. An episode this pleasant can sometimes forget to be dangerous.Directed by Leo Penn and written by Howard Berk, "The Conspirators" is not Season Seven's sharpest hour. As the last Columbo of the 1970s, the last on NBC, and the last new case the Lieutenant would face for nearly eleven years, it leaves a lot to be desired.

In the 294th episode of The Main Street Electrical Podcast, Jenn & Dave look back a year or so, to an episode done in April of 2025 - when we decided to rank all 12 theatrical Star Wars Films... and of course, we had to have on our Star Wars fanboy friend, The Derek Frank, to discuss. And he is back again! First up, not only is Jenn getting ready for her upcoming Disney travels, Dave has in his magic bands for his own trip and Derek gives the scoop on the Star Wars After Dark event in Disneyland. Then, the trio dives into the films - the prequel trilogy, the originals, the sequel trilogy, and the three extra movies - ranking the 12 to 1, least to most favorite, and the reasons why. Plus, why does Jenn hate Empire Strikes Back so much? Then, an update on Jenn's travels, Derek's new men's clothing company, and Dave telling you to all go see Project Hail Mary.
Rich Keefe & Ryan Davey discuss the cinematic classic, Star Wars: The Empire Strikes Back. Plus they tier every movie and TV show in the Star Wars Universe, as well as a few video games. Twitter, Instagram & YouTube: @DORKpodcast

The heroes of the rebellion have fled Hoth and found themselves in new environs unlike any we've seen in Star Wars before. Bespin's Cloud City is the first real metropolis in the series, and while Yavin was covered in trees, it was nothing like the damp swamps of Dagobah, home to creepy crawlies of all sorts. As our heroes meet their respective contacts, one has to wonder, which of these new worlds is home to the more trustworthy sort of person? Trick question. You can't trust either of these motherfuckers.
