The bizarre, incoherent ‘Star Wars Holiday Special' was broadcast only once, on 17th November, 1978. Despite CBS signing up the stars of the original movie - Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill, the plot swapped epic battles for a bizarre variety show filled with cameos from Harvey Korman, Bea Arthur, and Jefferson Starship. The story revolves around Chewbacca's family as celebrate “Life Day” on their home planet, Kashyyyk. George Lucas' initial vision was for a sombre, character-driven tale. But instead, it evolved into a chaotic blend of guest star sketches, dodgy green screens, and musical numbers. Lucas reportedly hated it so much he wished to destroy every copy with a sledgehammer. Arion, Rebecca and Olly explain why Fisher ended up singing a new song to the tune of John Williams's Star Wars theme; consider how Disney attempted to scrub the memory of the Special from the Star Wars canon after acquiring Lucasfilm; and contemplate the wisdom of making Wookies - who speak an unintelligible language, with no subtitles - the stars of the show… Further Reading: • ‘The Star Wars Holiday Special: A Retrospective' (Empire, 2009): https://www.empireonline.com/movies/features/star-wars-holiday-special/ • ‘Star Wars Holiday Special: Inside the Confusing Christmas Special' (Thrillist, 2017): https://www.thrillist.com/entertainment/nation/star-wars-holiday-special • 'The Star Wars Holiday Special' (CBS, 1978): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KxtSX1lg8rE Love the show?

Adam Driver und Steven Soderbergh planen zwei Jahre lang einen Film über Ben Solo. Der Film wird vorangetrieben, kriegt bei Lucasfilm grünes Licht – und wird dann von der Spitze von Disney abgesägt. Diese News wirft seit Ende Oktober immer neuen Gesprächsstoff ab und wirft ein Licht auf den Zustand von Star Wars, Disney und des Film-Geschäftes. Parallel erreicht die Kylo-Ren Comic-Reihe "Legacy of Vader" mit Heft #10 einen vorläufigen Höhepunkt. Kylo Ren trifft auf Mustafar auf den verstorbenen Luke Skywalker! Das Vermächtnis von Ben Solo ist das Hauptthema in dieser (offiziel) 124ten Ausgabe von Bucketheads. Mit Kevin, Dascha und Lasse. Diese Folge ist gleichzeitig die Premiere unseres freien Gesprächsformates. Darin bringen wir ab sofort alle zwei Wochen ein Update und beantworten Fragen unserer Unterstützenden. Das ergänzt das sonstige Bucketheads-Programm. Die Fragen in dieser Folge kommen von Unterstützenden auf Patreon und Steady.

MIN 4: IT: BIENVENIDOS A DARRY. (HBO MAX) 4 estrellas Ambientada en los años sesenta, IT: Bienvenidos a Derry funciona como precuela directa de las películas de Andy Muschietti y amplía el universo del payaso Pennywise desde sus orígenes. La serie, producida por los hermanos Muschietti junto a Jason Fuchs, explora cómo el mal ancestral que habita en las alcantarillas de Derry comenzó a manifestarse décadas antes de los hechos narrados en IT (Capítulo Uno). Con un reparto encabezado por Jovan Adepo, Chris Chalk, Taylour Paige y James Remar, la producción mantiene el tono inquietante y melancólico de la saga cinematográfica, pero introduce una mirada más coral, centrada en los vecinos del pequeño pueblo de Maine y en cómo sus secretos, miedos y prejuicios van dando forma al monstruo que todos llevan dentro. Min 11: EL MISTERIO DE CEMETERY ROAD (APPLE TV) 4 estrellas Basada en la novela de Greg Iles, El misterio de Cemetery Road llega a Apple TV+ como un potente thriller sureño protagonizado por Emma Thompson, que ofrece una de sus interpretaciones más intensas y contenidas de los últimos años. La actriz británica encarna a Maggie McEwan, una periodista que regresa a su ciudad natal de Bienville, Misisipi, tras la muerte de su padre, y se ve arrastrada a una trama de corrupción, secretos familiares y heridas nunca cerradas. Lo que empieza como un regreso íntimo se transforma en una investigación que desentierra la podredumbre de una comunidad marcada por los silencios, las lealtades rotas y un crimen que amenaza con resquebrajar los cimientos del poder local. Min 17: STAR WARS VISION 3 (DISNEY) 3,5 estrellas Con su tercer volumen, Star Wars: Visions confirma que el universo galáctico creado por George Lucas puede reinventarse sin límites. Esta nueva antología producida por Lucasfilm vuelve a reunir a estudios de animación de todo el mundo —entre ellos varios españoles y latinoamericanos— para reinterpretar la Fuerza, los Jedi y el Lado Oscuro desde prismas culturales y estéticos radicalmente distintos. Cada episodio funciona como un pequeño cortometraje independiente, una cápsula de autor que combina la herencia mítica de la saga con nuevas sensibilidades visuales, musicales y filosóficas. En esta tercera entrega, la diversidad narrativa alcanza su punto más alto: desde el anime introspectivo hasta la animación experimental europea, pasando por la plasticidad del stop-motion o el dinamismo del cómic digital, todo se conjuga bajo un mismo lema creativo: expandir el mito sin traicionar su espíritu. Min 23: THE WITCHER 4 (NETFLIX) 2 estrellas Con su cuarta temporada, The Witcher afronta el reto de reinventarse sin perder identidad. Tras la marcha de Henry Cavill, el papel de Geralt de Rivia recae ahora en Liam Hemsworth, que asume el testigo con un tono más introspectivo y vulnerable, sin renunciar al magnetismo físico del brujo cazador de monstruos. La nueva entrega, desarrollada por Lauren Schmidt Hissrich para Netflix, adapta los tramos iniciales de La Torre de la Golondrina y La Dama del Lago, continuando la odisea de Ciri (Freya Allan) y Yennefer (Anya Chalotra) en un continente fracturado por la guerra y la magia. En esta etapa, la serie se aleja parcialmente de la épica fragmentada de los inicios para abrazar un tono más oscuro y político, donde el destino de Ciri se convierte en eje central de un conflicto que desborda lo humano y lo mítico. Min 29: BSO: SOLO ASESINATOS EN EL EDIFCIO 5 (4 estrellas) En su quinta temporada, Solo asesinatos en el edificio vuelve a demostrar que el humor, el misterio y la música pueden convivir en perfecta armonía. La banda sonora, firmada nuevamente por Siddhartha Khosla, consolida la identidad sonora más reconocible de la serie: una mezcla de jazz sofisticado, melodías de cámara y ligeros guiños al noir clásico que acompañan a Charles, Oliver y Mabel en sus nuevas pesquisas criminales dentro del edificio Arconia. Khosla, fiel a su estilo elegante y juguetón, construye un universo musical donde cada motivo temático refleja la dinámica del trío protagonista y el tono entre irónico y melancólico que define a la serie.

THE HUNT FOR BEN SOLO... The title might not be great, but the potential of this cancelled film is certainly thrilling. Recently, news broke that Adam Driver and Steven Soderbergh had been working on a script for a post-Episode IX Ben Solo film. Not only that but it seemed that the folks at Lucasfilm liked the concept, and a full script was completed with the intention of moving forward with the film, only for Disney CEO Bob Iger to kill the film since he couldn't understand how Ben Solo would be alive. Today we discuss this news and wonder about the possibilities continuing Ben's story has, especially after a disappointing end for his character in The Rise Of Skywalker, and potential connections to Daisy Ridley's upcoming New Jedi Order film. What could have been...?• • •TRIAD Of The FORCE is a STAR WARS+ podcast hosted by Gus, Nani, & Chase—Puerto Rican and queer creators sharing deep dives, and heartfelt conversations from a galaxy far, far away.

In an interview with Elle, promoting her upcoming appearance in Guillermo del Toro's Frankenstein, Goth shared only that she is still attached to the film and commented that “It's for the best that it's taken the time it has. They want to do it right.” This is in line with Kevin Feige's comments this summer that the film is still moving forward.In an interview with the AP this week, Adam Driver dropped some major information about the Ben Solo movie in Star Wars that never was. Driver explained that Lucasfilm was interested in continuing his character's story in a film that had a script written by Steven Soderbergh. Driver was supportive of the script and the creative team took it to Bob Iger and Alan Bergman at Disney who turned the project down as they “didn't see how Ben Solo was alive.” Fan favorites Amber Midthunder and Walton Goggins will star in a new action movie from the creator of the John Wick franchise. The film, called Painter, has a major executive producer credit - with Avatar and Titanic director James Cameron serving in that role.

The movie's plot will focus on Midthunder's character, trained as a child who must save her father after he is kidnapped.Lightning RoundKate McKinnon has joined the cast of “Percy Jackson and the Olympians” Season 3 and will play Aphrodite.Jim Carrey is in talks to star in a live action film adaptation of The Jetsons from Warner Bros.
