Strap in, because this week we're tackling Ewoks: The Battle for Endor. This surprisingly grim sequel to Caravan of Courage kicks off by traumatizing kids in the first five minutes and somehow gets weirder from there. Blaster fights, space witches, and more—this movie has it all and absolutely none of it makes sense. Join us as we ask: is this the Empire Strikes Back of Ewok movies… or just what happens when Lucasfilm says, “Sure, why not?”Follow Us:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@GoldSquadronGays⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on Instagram⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@GoldSquadronGays⁠⁠ on BlueSky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@GoldSquadronGays⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on TikTok⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@GoldSquadronGays⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ on YouTubeContact Us: Goldsquadrongays@gmail.comTheme Music from Uppbeat: https://uppbeat.io/t/danijel-zambo/stardustLicense code: GNBFGWAK0CXN3KG2

We welcome Heather Antos back to the show to help us take our first foray into Star Wars -- a long, long time ago in a galaxy far, far away -- with the logical starting point: Ewoks: The Battle for Endor! We share nostalgia for watching movies this on TV with (what we would now consider) vintage commercials and talk about how this movie exists at a pivot point in film technology. Joe has lots of questions, like: Do kids still have adventure? Are Ewoks the predecessors to Minions? What's worse: sharing a bedroom or becoming an orphan? Minions? MINIONS??? Heather shares in-universe answers about our Star Wars questions, but also imparts important lessons about its lore. We ask: is this a happy ending?

For May's movie theme, FORCED, we're discussing every Star Wars film in chronological order including the made for TV movies and we wrap up the “Made for TV Trilogy” with the 1985 follow up to “Caravan of Courage” called “EWOKS: THE BATTLE FOR ENDOR”. Cindel and Wicket are back and that annoying Mace kid? Dead. In fact, the whole family except Cindel is dead and most of the Ewok village is abducted by Orc looking dudes. I'm sure it was all Mace's fault somehow but this movie is definitely better than its predecessor. Quality is assured because we got ourselves a space hermit played by none other than Wilford Motherfucking Brimley. He may be gruff but he's got a good heart and will eat all of your porridge. He's also got a little buddy named “Teek” who runs real fast and is a total scamp. When the sorceress bird lady kidnaps Cindel, then Wilford, Teen and Wicket got to go to the orc castle to rescue her and the rest of the Ewoks. More training for when the Empire comes. Cindel has a new daddy now and let's hope he has access to proper refrigeration for his insulin.

Our very first Patreon-exclusive episode demands an exceptional film, and "Ewoks: The Battle of Endor" (1985) certainly delivers. A direct sequel to 1984's "Caravan of Courage," "The Battle for Endor" is the more uneven film, yet the one that achieves greater emotional extremes--from camp to whimsy to sincere grief. Featuring space orcs, a sweet castle, and Wilford Brimley, you couldn't in good conscience ask for much more from a 1980's TV film. "The Battle for Endor" proves that Star Wars, for all its crass commercialism, has some real heart if you know where to find it.

The moon of Endor gets attacked by a vicious band of thuggish Sanyassan marauders, whose ancestors also crashlanded on Endor some time ago, and a powerful shape-shifting sorceress named Charal under the leadership of King Terak.  They attack the Ewok village, taking the crashed Towani ship's power source after killing Cindel's family, then take away all of the Ewoks except Wicket back to their dungeons as prisoners. While roving the forest, Cindel and Wicket encounter a mysterious creature named Teek who leads them to the home of a grumpy hermit named Noa Briqualon, who we come to find has also crashlanded there. Noa wards them off, but his icy exterior melts to friendship, leading to Teek and Noa helping them on their quest to free the imprisoned Ewoks from the marauders' castle. King Terak is confident that the powerful crystal that is an energy cell used by the Towani family star cruiser has magical powers. The power, Terak feels, will get them off of Endor and that Cindel must be some sorceress who can tap into those powers.

While everyone was losing their mind over lightsaber duals, a hundred Imperial Star Destroyers, and Dark Rey, an important clue in the D23 Sizzle Reel for The Rise of Skywalker might have slipped past most fans. We’re going to try to figure out that red ribbon Rey is holding, and why it’s showing up all around the new canon. Plus, we’ll talk about some Hot Takes and more. Now that we’ve had a few days to review the D23 Sizzle Reel for The Rise of Skywalker, there’s a sequence within it that might indicate something very important. And even more, it’s connected to an experience at Galaxy’s Edge, and two novels recently released. Get ready, Reylos. We’re about to dig into this.HOT TAKES!JJ Abrams is talking about Rian Johnson and The Last Jedi. Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni keep hiding more and more easter eggs in The Mandalorian. And could the cave sequence in The Last Jedi hint at Mortis? It’s time for Hot Takes!J.J. Abrams Says ‘Star Wars: The Last Jedi’ Didn’t Ruin His Plans for ‘The Rise of Skywalker’https://www.slashfilm.com/star-wars-the-rise-of-skywalker-ending-wasnt-ruined-by-the-last-jedi/There has been a ton of speculation regarding how J.J. Abrams will deal with the story developments from Star Wars: The Last Jedi. And for everyone who thought that Abrams had to fix or undo what Rian Johnson did with his Star Wars sequel in order to make the Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker ending work, think again. In a red carpet interview from The D23 Expo last weekend, J.J. Abrams said, despite what some fans think, The Last Jedi didn’t change anything about the trajectory of the story that the director envisioned when he started working on Star Wars: The Force Awakens. Abrams told The Associated Press (via ET Canada): “The story that we’re telling, the story that we started to conceive when we did ‘The Force Awakens,’ was allowed to continue. Episode VIII didn’t really derail anything that we were thinking about."The Mandalorian Is Bringing a Deep Cut Star Wars Creature Back to Live-Actionhttps://io9.gizmodo.com/the-mandalorian-is-bringing-a-deep-cut-star-wars-creatu-1837713272The more we hear about The Mandalorian, the more it feels like executive producers Jon Favreau and Dave Filoni made it their own personal Star Wars playground. Even seeing only a few brief minutes, we already know the show solves the mystery of Willow Hood’s ice cream maker, brings back IG bounty hunter droids in a big way, references the Star Wars Holiday Special, and god knows what else. The latest revelation is that the show will reintroduce another deep cut Star Wars alien. In an interview with MTV News, Favreau confirmed that The Mandalorian will have blurrgs. What are blurrgs? They’re two-legged, big-headed creatures that people ride or use for labor. Kind of like a super ugly horse of the Star Wars universe. Blurrgs first appeared in Ewoks: The Battle of Endor, which is not canon, but Filoni made them canon when he introduced them in The Clone Wars animated series. They’ve also appeared on Star Wars Rebels and in a few video games.The Last Jedi's  'Clone Wars' Easter Egg May Hint at Rey's Arc in 'Star Wars 9'https://www.inverse.com/article/58907-star-wars-9-spoilers-last-jedi-clone-wars-easter-egg-mortisWhile everyone has been understandably preoccupied with Rey’s vision in the The Last Jedi — what with the “Dark Rey” comparisons, visions of the future, and what it all means — another fan noticed an Easter egg that hasn’t been discussed enough: the hand gestures Rey makes in the vision look eerily similar to those seen on Mortis in the Clone Wars animated series. Redditor u/In_eyes_of_munin posted an image comparing the two and the similarities are really creepy.

Our very first Patreon-exclusive episode demands an exceptional film, and "Ewoks: The Battle of Endor" (1985) certainly delivers. A direct sequel to 1984's "Caravan of Courage," "The Battle for Endor" is the more uneven film, yet the one that achieves greater emotional extremes--from camp to whimsy to sincere grief. Featuring space orcs, a sweet castle, and Wilford Brimley, you couldn't in good conscience ask for much more from a 1980's TV film. "The Battle for Endor" proves that Star Wars, for all its crass commercialism, has some real heart if you know where to find it. https://www.patreon.com/posts/episode-24-ewoks-27490872

Products of the Mind: A Conversation About the Intersection of Business + Creativity

Products of the Mind Episode 10: Star Wars Trademarks Welcome to Episode 10 of Products of the Mind. On this episode, I get into some of the highlights and lowlights from the ever-expanding galaxy of Star Wars trademarks. I remember eagerly waiting in line with my parents to see Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. It was May 1980, and I was a few months shy of 4 years old. Little did I know that 35 years ago, the world would be eagerly awaiting yet another Star Wars epic. The Star Wars movie saga began on May 25, 1977, and the Star Wars trademark saga began shortly thereafter. Let's hop on our landspeeders and take a tour of some Star Wars trademark highlights (and lowlights.) A Long Time Ago... The first trademark application including the words "STAR WARS" was filed with the United States Patent and Trademark Office on July 27, 1977. The application listed two types of goods: comic magazines and toy action figures. The first Star Wars comic book came out in July 1977, so that was no problem. However, the action figures themselves weren't actually available at that point. In fact, despite the demand, the figures ended up not being ready by Christmas of that year, so, instead, kids were given an empty cardboard box that acted as a gift certificate. The toys were supposed to be delivered by June 1978. This is all very hard to imagine in today's instant on-demand world. By the way, that empty box is now very valuable. As of this writing, one of them is for sale on eBay for $7,995. Interestingly, the first record of a Star Wars-related trademark filing was an application by Lucasfilm to register THE FORCE for t-shirts. That one was filed on July 14, 1977. Shortly after those initial applications, the STAR WARS trademarks started rolling in...posters (had that), t-shirts (that too, of course), action playsets (ditto), and chewing gum (I think I missed out on the gum)...watches, paint sets, lunch boxes, socks and pajamas (trust me, I was looking pretty cool), board games and puzzles... And, of course, "Entertainment Services-Namely, the Production and Distribution of Motion Pictures." The Galaxy Expands Of course Lucasfilm and its associated companies sought trademark protection for all the most well-known characters: Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, Princess Leia, Yoda, and so on. But over time, they cast a wider net. Eventually they obtained trademark registrations (many of which have expired) for obscure characters such as Prune Face, Tooth Face, and Sy Snootles & the Bebo Band (the band playing at Jabba's palace in Return of the Jedi, of course). They registered not just Wicket the Ewok (that registration was for shampoo; after all, who wouldn't want a glossy coat of Ewok fur?), and the same character under his full name, Wicket W. Warrick, but also Willy the Ewok. Yes, even the characters from the not very good 1985 TV movie Ewoks: The Battle for Endor made the cut. And speaking of not very good, I'll just leave this screen shot from the USPTO here for you to enjoy: Star Wars Snacks Sadly, there's no trademark registration on file for Rootleaf Stew, which is what Yoda was cooking when he first met Luke in The Empire Strikes Back. An actual recipe for the stew was created by Chef Craig Claiborne for a 1983 NPR radio drama. It looks pretty good. And also, why isn't NPR doing any cool sci-fi radio dramas nowadays? Enough with actual news coverage and public affairs programming; I want my tax dollars going towards more Star Wars stuff. Lucasfilm used to have a registration for A NEW FORCE AT BREAKFAST, the tagline for the 1980's C-3PO'S breakfast cereal. Not much of a breakfast eater? That's OK, maybe you'll enjoy some wine from SKYWALKER VINEYARDS. Non-Traditional Trademarks Lucasfilm has protected not just the names, but also the shapes of some of its iconic characters, including R2-D2 and C-3PO. They've also protected some of the distinctive sounds associated with Star Wars, such as the sound of a lightsaber being activated, which is described as "a crescendo beginning with a snapping sound followed by a hiss sound" (click here to listen) and Darth Vader's labored breathing, described as "the sound of rhythmic mechanical human breathing created by breathing through a scuba tank regulator" (click here to listen.) The Saga Continues Earlier this year, Lucasfilm began filing trademark applications for STAR WARS THE FORCE AWAKENS. But of course, that won't be the end of the Star Wars saga, not by a long shot. STAR WARS ROGUE ONE (which takes place between Episodes III and IV) will be released in December 2016, followed by Episode VII, Episode VIII, and more to come. You can be sure that Lucasfilm will continue to keep things busy at both the box office and the trademark office. And I'll keep you posted when any Star Wars trademark news appears on my radar. Until then, fly casual, and MAY THE 4th BE WITH YOU. Thanks for Checking Out Products of the Mind!
