We have been chronologically reviewing every Star Wars film and have finally hit the gold mine: Star Wars Episode V: The Empire Strikes Back. Gary, Justus, and Evan talk about why this is the best Star Wars film ever created and debate whether it is wrong that Yoda and Obi-Wan continue to lie to Luke. Is Luke the last hope for the Jedi? Is Han more than a pretty boy? Is Leia the smartest/strongest person in the gang? MORE DARTH VADER!? We give you behind the scenes information about the ice monster on the planet Hoth, Mark Hamill’s terrible accident between the first two films, and revisit C3PO’s silver leg. Make sure to stick around until the end for another COMIC OF THE WEEK and much more! --- This episode is sponsored by · Anchor: The easiest way to make a podcast. https://anchor.fm/app

Is Leia a Jedi? Is Harry really the chosen one? Reddit has the theories, we have the beer!
In the mid-90s, Lucasfilm decided to fill in the Star Wars gap between episodes 5 and 6 with Shadows of the Empire. There was a game, a book, a soundtrack, a junior novelization… pretty much everything except a movie. There was even a comic book! And we read it! All 6 issues! What’s gonna happen? Is Luke gonna die?! (no) Is Boba Fett gonna die?! (no) Is Han gonna get delivered to Jabba?! (yeah) Is Leia going to be the victim of sexual assault?! (omg, what the hell did we just read).
In this emergency episode of the Force Material podcast, we're breaking down the enigma that is the Last Jedi trailer!Join us as we attempt to answer all the questions the trailer raises, including but not limited to:Is Rian Johnson the master of misdirection, or is the real misdirection that there is no misdirection?Should Luke train Rey?Is Kylo Ren a great pilot or not, and what would be truer to his character?Will Kylo kill another one of his parents?Why doesn't Kylo wear his mask anymore?Can Kylo be redeemed?Was Darth Vader ever really redeemed? Is Poe Dameron the son Leia never had?Is Leia an underrated Force user?Are Porgs the most adorable creature in the history of the franchise?Does the Jedi Order that established itself on Ahch-To bear any resemblance to the Jedi Order that established itself on Coruscant?Will Phasma finally live up to the hype?Is Kylo pulling Rey to the dark, is Rey pulling Kylo to the light, or are they teaming up to fight an even bigger bad?Is Rian Johnson trying to send us a meta-message?Where are Holdo, Rose and DJ?And will any of this footage actually end up in the film, anyway?

A long time ago in a continuity far, far away… Dark Horse Comics made a TON of Star Wars comics, more than 500 of 'em. And they kicked the whole thing off with Dark Empire, a story where Luke turns to the Dark Side. Apparently, this thing was so important that all the Star Wars novels from the 90's kept referencing it, so we decided to read it and see what all the fuss was about. Join us as we ask the questions: Is Leia a trucker? Is the Emperor a vampire? Is Boba Fett good at anything? Marvel owns the rights to all these comics now, what with Disney owning everything in the world these days, so if you’d like to read them just head on over to Marvel Unlimited.
