To kick off Caravan Of Garbage in 2026 we've decided to celebrate the release of Star Wars' 49th anniversary. We're talking the original movie as it was first shown in May of 1977 with none of the Special Edition tweaks or even the addition of the title A New Hope which was added four years later. We're looking at the miracle of the movie that started it all, George Lucas' vision brought to life with the music of John Williams, special effects by ILM and the relatively unknown trio of Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher and Mark Hamill.

Step into one of Stephen King's darkest worlds as I review The Long Walk (2025), a bleak, brutal, and unsettling dystopian thriller that dares you to keep watching.Based on King's early Richard Bachman novel, The Long Walk imagines a near-future America where teenage boys volunteer for a televised endurance contest with one simple rule: keep walking… or die. What unfolds isn't flashy horror, but something far more disturbing: psychological erosion, government control, and a society willing to cheer it all on.In this spoiler-light review, I break down:• Why The Long Walk is such a brutal viewing experience• How faithful the film is to King's original novel• The surprisingly effective, low-key menace of Mark Hamill in a chilling antagonist role• Why this movie worked incredibly well for me… and absolutely did not work for my wife• Seven reasons this film may deeply resonate with you• And why, for some viewers, this will just be too much!This is not an easy watch, but it is a powerful one. A disturbing warning about authoritarianism, conformity, and what happens when people stop pushing back and just keep going with the flow.
Once upon a time, Walt Disney Imagineeering conceived an entire land based on the IP of Lucasfilm Ltd., including the most ambitious Star Wars attraction they ever conceived.

BREAKING NEWS: Kathleen Kennedy's control of Lucasfilm and Star Wars has come to an end. We review some telling highlights from Kathy's exit interview and discuss her Star Wars legacy. With Dave Filoni taking charge of Lucasfilm, does this mean George Lucas will return to the fold? We share our thoughts. Disney revealed a facelift is coming to Star Wars: Galaxy's Edge at Disneyland as Original Trilogy characters and situations will be incorporated into the theme park this April. We review all the information about the changes and offer our opinions. Star Wars: Starfighter will feature lightsaber duels and none other than Tom Cruise stopped by the set to jump behind the camera to shoot a sequence. We look at a fresh interview with director Shawn Levy and speculate which characters will be involved in the duel and why. Mark Hamill recently discussed The Force Awakens and the lack of a reunion between Han, Luke and Leia. Find out why such a get together never materialized. Plus, we got interview highlights from Mia Goth, Oscar Isaac and more!
From Kylo to Vader and from Rey to Luke, Galaxy's Edge at the Disneyland Resort in Anaheim, CA will undergo its most significant evolution since opening in May 2019 by unlocking the land's carefully controlled timeline, and dismantling the sequel-era boundaries that limited Batuu and its inhabitants to a narrow period of Star Wars history. Let's break it all down with special guest, Theme Park, Music and Travel writer and editor, Brooke McDonald!Follow and message us on Instagram to get 15% off your first purchase at rsvlts.com!Follow TTM on social media: thankthemakerpod.comDonate to "WHAT CHOICE? - Star Wars Fans For Abortion Access" at gofundme.Follow the hosts on social media:Adam RussellNick GhanbarianWilliam Ryan KeyMike ForesterJason ChiodoAhsoka, Anakin Skywalker, Ahsoka Tano, Rosario Dawson, Hayden Christensen, Obi-Wan Kenobi, Andor, The Book of Boba Fett, The Bad Batch, The High Republic, #makesolo2happen, The Mandalorian, Star Wars Visions, Anime, Star Wars Anime, Disney Gallery, Galactic Starcruiser, Halcyon, Chandrila Star Line, Galaxy's Edge, Rogue Squadron, Disney+ Day, Hondo Supply, Armor Party, Kathleen Kennedy, Star Wars Celebration, Star Wars Black Series, Temuera Morrison, Black Krrsantan, Tosche Station, Danny Trejo, Fennec Shand, Ming-Na Wen, Mark Hamill, Luke Skywalker, Cad Bane, Princess Leia, Vivien Lyra Blair, Carrie Fisher, Tales of the Jedi, Cassian Andor, Bix Caleen, Brasso, Luthen Rael, Mon Mothma, Vel Sartha, Cinta Kaz, Dedra Meero, Syril Karn, Orson Krennic, Ryan Gosling, Mia Goth

Ben and Rob chart the final moments of ‘Life Of Chuck', Mike Flanagan's Stephen King adaptation that has quickly become one of the most talked about life affirming films of the year. Starring Tom Hiddleston, Mark Hamill, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Karen Gillan, Matthew Lillard, Jacob Tremblay and Mia Sara, Life Of Chuck tells the story of an ordinary man whose existence unfolds backwards through collapsing worlds, childhood dance lessons and the small moments that define a human life.Why has Life Of Chuck become such a powerful Stephen King adaptation for modern audiences; how did Mike Flanagan turn a strange, non linear short story into a deeply emotional and life affirming film; and why are so many viewers calling this one of the most moving movies of the year? How do Tom Hiddleston, Mark Hamill and Chiwetel Ejiofor anchor a story built on memory, grief and joy; what do the attic and the cupola really represent; and how do the recurring objects across timelines quietly rewrite what the film is saying? And finally, what does Life Of Chuck really mean about connection, mortality and the fear of forgetting what made life beautiful? CONSUUUME to find out all this and much, much more!PLUS!

It seems Mark Hamill isn't as opposed to Luke Skywalker ai or as negative as it used to be when other creators are doing it, even going as far as saying the technology is now fascinating while being wary of where it will go...This is a better response than he's made in the past. I think if a payment structure can be worked out to get all these actors who's likeness is used, then the ethical future of Ai is on the right turn.

¡Último rugido del rancor para este año 2025! Tras varios meses de preparación, por fin os podemos traer el especial de la película más emblemática de la trilogía original. Este año Star Wars El Imperio Contraataca cumple 45 años ¡y lo celebramos con este programa de más de 6 horas de duración! Bloque 1: Entrevista a Madelyn Most. Abrimos este especial con una entrevista fosera a una invitada de auténtico lujo: Madelyn Most. Ayudante de cámara en los rodajes de Una Nueva Esperanza y El Imperio Contraataca, Madelyn participó en la grabación de varias escenas míticas de la saga. Una de las más reconocibles es el duelo de Luke Skywalker y Darth Vader en Bespin. Madelyn nos contará todas las dificultades que tuvo para que sortear y lo que tuvo que luchar para ganarse el puesto como asistente de cámara. También nos contará varias anécdotas muy divertidas del rodaje de Star Wars y El Imperio Contraataca y como se vivía el ambiente con actores como Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, Carrie Fisher y compañía así como las diferencias de trabajar con los directores George Lucas e Irvin Kershner. Un deleite para cualquier fan de la saga Star Wars y del cine en general. Hemos invertido mucho tiempo y dedicación a este programa, pero El Imperio Contraataca no merecía menos ya que se trata de una película que marcó a toda una generación y que, cuarenta y cinco años después, sigue resistiendo el paso del tiempo. Queremos dar un agradecimiento muy especial a Madelyn Most por el tiempo que nos dedicó y por haberse prestado a realizar la entrevista en español para nuestros oyentes.

Mark Hamill said it was dumb that Luke Skywalker died from an overdose of the Force, and doesn't seem real happy about his role in Disney Star Wars. Then we talk about how Disney didn't exactly celebrate the Sequel Trilogy for the 10th anniversary of The Force Awakens.

This episode, we are heading into the trenches with one of the most unique, gritty, and personal war movies ever made: The Big Red One.You might know this as the "Luke Skywalker goes to war" movie, because Mark Hamill is in it, fresh off the X-Wing. You might know it as the Lee Marvin tough-guy flick. But what this movie really is - it's a memoir written in blood and 35-millimeter film by a director who was actually there.

Dirigida por Derek Cianfrance (Blue Valentine, Cruce de caminos), Roofman: un ladrón en el tejado se inspira en hechos reales para reconstruir la insólita historia de Jeffrey Manchester, un delincuente meticuloso y casi invisible que logró robar decenas de restaurantes accediendo por los tejados y ocultándose en falsos techos. Protagonizada por Channing Tatum, junto a Kirsten Dunst y Ben Mendelsohn, la película transita con soltura entre el thriller y la comedia negra, evitando la idealización del criminal para centrarse en su ingenio, su soledad y la fascinación mediática que despierta su figura. Cianfrance imprime un tono ligero y melancólico a la vez, convirtiendo el relato de robos en un retrato de la América invisible, donde el talento y la obsesión se confunden con la necesidad de desaparecer. Min 15: FRONTERA (2,5 estrellas) Frontera, dirigida por Judith Colell (Elisa K, Nosotras), es un poderoso thriller histórico que recupera un episodio apenas contado de la Segunda Guerra Mundial desde la perspectiva española: en 1943, cuando miles de judíos huían de la represión nazi por los Pirineos, un funcionario de aduanas con pasado republicano interpretado por Miki Esparbé, junto a María Rodríguez Soto y Asier Etxeandía, se enfrenta a la orden de bloquear su paso y decide, contra todo pronóstico y bajo constante riesgo, ayudarles a cruzar la frontera hacia una esperanza de libertad, desafiando al régimen franquista y poniendo en juego la seguridad de su familia y su pueblo. Min 22: REY DE REYES (2,5 estrellas) Dirigida por el cineasta surcoreano Jang Seong-ho, Rey de Reyes es una ambiciosa película de animación coproducida entre Corea del Sur y Estados Unidos que reinterpreta la vida de Jesucristo a partir de La vida de Nuestro Señor, el cuento que Charles Dickens escribió para su hijo, combinando respeto por el texto original con una puesta en escena épica y accesible al público familiar. Con las voces protagonistas de Oscar Isaac como Jesús, junto a Kenneth Branagh, Uma Thurman y Mark Hamill, la película articula un relato clásico apoyado en un cuidado apartado visual que mezcla sensibilidad oriental y espectacularidad occidental, poniendo el acento en valores universales como la compasión, el sacrificio y la redención. Min 27: BALEARIC (2 estrellas) Dirigida por Ion de Sosa (Sueñan los androides, Mamántula), Balearic es una arriesgada fábula cinematográfica que mezcla drama, suspense y crítica social dentro de una narración que transcurre en la víspera de San Juan, cuando un grupo de adolescentes —interpretados por Lara Gallo, Elías Hwidar, Ada Tormo y Paula Gala— decide colarse en la piscina de una lujosa villa y acaba atrapado por tres feroces perros que desatan un espiral de tensión. Min 29: LA VIDA FUERA (2,5 estrellas) Dirigida por Mario Martone (Leopardi, Il giovane favoloso), La vida fuera (Fuori) es un drama biográfico que reconstruye con delicadeza y pasión la vida de la escritora Goliarda Sapienza, interpretada por Valeria Golino, acompañada por Matilda De Angelis, Elodie y Corrado Fortuna, en un relato que transcurre en la Roma de 1980 y se centra en la detención de Sapienza tras un acto impulsivo, su paso por prisión y el profundo vínculo que forja con jóvenes reclusas que cambiarán su visión sobre la vida y la escritura, empujándola a recuperar la alegría de vivir y el impulso creativo que la definió como una de las voces literarias más originales de Italia. Min 32: FRAGMENTOS (2,5 estrellas) Fragmentos es un drama psicológico rodado íntegramente en Lanzarote que explora las grietas emocionales de una familia contemporánea a través de la mirada introspectiva de Emma Suárez, en el papel de una madre cuya vida aparentemente estable se resquebraja tras un accidente que la obliga a enfrentarse a sus recuerdos, duelos no resueltos y relaciones tensas con su entorno. Min 34: REESTRENO DE LOS GOONIES. 40 aniversario Con motivo de su 40º aniversario, Los Goonies —la entrañable aventura juvenil dirigida por Richard Donner y producida por Steven Spielberg, protagonizada por Sean Astin, Josh Brolin, Martha Plimpton y un inolvidable reparto de jóvenes intérpretes— regresa a las salas en un reestreno que celebra la vigencia de una película que se ha convertido en objeto de culto generacional. MIn 40: LA PELI DE TU VIDA, CON PEDRO CENJOR Y hoy en la peli de tu vida, cedemos el altavoz de Estamos de Cine a otro directo de la tierra. Este experimentado, toledano, miembro de la Asociación de productores Audiovisuales de CLM, con los que estuvimos hace una semana en Madrid para apoyar las posibles candidatos de nuestra comunidad de cara a los próximos Goya. Es Pedro Cenjor, que ha debutado en el largo este mismo año con La Boda...con Elena Furiase, Daniel Chamorro o Antonio Dechent. En plena Gran Vía, en la oficina de Promoción Turística de CLM, nos desvelaba por qué "Los Inúticos", de Federico Fellini, del año 1953, es el título que marcó su amor por el cine. Min 41: BSO ESPECIAL CENTENARIO DE JACK LEMMON La sección BSO de esta semana se convierte en un viaje muy especial para celebrar el centenario de Jack Lemmon, uno de los actores imprescindibles de la historia del cine. A través de un recorrido musical por su filmografía, repasamos algunas de las bandas sonoras más emblemáticas asociadas a sus películas, deteniéndonos en títulos tan representativos como Mr. Roberts, Días de vino y rosas, Irma la dulce, La extraña pareja o El apartamento. Un homenaje sonoro que permite redescubrir no solo la versatilidad interpretativa de Lemmon, sino también cómo la música acompañó y definió el tono de una carrera que supo moverse con brillantez entre la comedia, el drama y la sátira, y que sigue resonando con fuerza cien años después.

In this solo episode of Challenge Accepted, Frank finally sits down with the iconic animated film Batman Mask of the Phantasm after years of calling it a major Batman blind spot. He shares his deep love for Batman The Animated Series, breaks down Bruce Timm's distinctive art style, and explores why Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill's performances still define Batman and Joker for entire generations. After watching the movie for the first time, Frank gives his immediate reaction, digging into Gotham's timeless look, the horror-inspired presentation of the Phantasm, and the emotional core of Bruce Wayne's struggle between vengeance and happiness. He connects the film to noir storytelling, classic Batman comics, and the larger DC animated universe, then closes with a fun run of trivia and behind the scenes facts that expand the appreciation for this fan favorite. Timestamps and Topics 00:00 Intro, Challenge Accepted format, and Frank's Batman blind spots 02:30 Bruce Timm's animation philosophy and the look of Batman The Animated Series 04:30 Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill casting stories and why their performances are iconic 06:30 Why the animated series villains work so well and why Phantasm is so intriguing 07:30 First time reaction right after watching Mask of the Phantasm 09:00 Gotham's design, red skies, and Shirley Walker's orchestral score 11:30 Phantasm as a horror figure, camera angles, and visual storytelling 18:30 Bruce Wayne at his parents' grave, the split between Bruce and Batman, and the film's central theme 25:00 Joker's reveal, color palette, and his connection to Gotham's decay 31:00 Phantasm as Batman's dark mirror and what happens when you lose yourself in the mask 34:45 Trivia, comic influences, and fun behind the scenes details Key Takeaways Batman Mask of the Phantasm fills a huge Batman blind spot for Frank and instantly earns a place alongside the best stories from Batman The Animated Series. Bruce Timm's simple musculature, straight line and curved line design, and heavy use of shading create a timeless, stylized Gotham that still holds up today. Kevin Conroy and Mark Hamill's performances as Batman and Joker remain definitive, from Batman's grounded intensity to Joker's legendary, unsettling laugh. The film uses horror language for Phantasm, with low angles, unstoppable pacing, and ghostlike presence that make the character feel more like a slasher villain. Gotham's red skies, bold silhouettes, and Shirley Walker's orchestral score combine into a powerful atmosphere that instantly recalls 90s DC animation. The emotional core of the story is Bruce asking his parents' permission to be happy, showing how tied his mission is to their memory and how fragile that balance is. Phantasm works as a dark mirror of Batman, showing what happens when someone loses the "Bruce Wayne" part of themselves and falls fully into vengeance. Joker could technically be removed from the plot, yet his presence elevates the movie by contrasting with Gotham's world and quietly proving how smart and observant he really is. The film leans heavily into classic noir structure, complete with twists, flashbacks, and a tragic love story that feels very early 90s yet still emotionally sharp. Behind the scenes, the movie draws from comics like Batman Year One and Year Two, and includes fun sound and design Easter eggs that reward longtime fans. Quotes "That laugh is iconic. That is my childhood." "You forget how good this show is, and the movie by extension, until you see it again." "Phantasm is Batman. Phantasm is Batman." "If he didn't have that alley moment, we would have a villain, not a hero." "It's okay to love Batman. He is a great superhero, and we're so lucky they keep finding new ways to tell his story."

Greg Alba, Aaron Alexander & John Humphrey dig into the haunting adaptation of Stephen King's novel (written under Richard Bachman) directed by Francis Lawrence (The Hunger Games: Catching Fire, I Am Legend). Starring Cooper Hoffman (Ray Garraty), David Jonsson (Peter McVries), Mark Hamill (The Major), Judy Greer (Ginnie), and a cast that includes Garrett Wareing, Roman Griffin Davis, Charlie Plummer and Ben Wang. The plot: fifty teenage boys are forced into an annual televised walking contest — maintain three mph non-stop or you die. The winner gets a huge cash prize and one wish. We break down everything: the gruelling pacing, the power of camaraderie, Ray vs Peter dynamic, the Major's ruthless regime, moral collapse, hidden references to King's book, the commentary on surveillance, desperation, and how far one can walk when the stakes are life or death. We also dive into standout moments — the first execution when someone slows down, the chilling “Three warnings then shot” sequence, emotional breakdown scenes in the march, the final confrontation and what the ending really means.

Zo was previously in a galaxy far, far away, where he witnessed fantastic events. He was then transported to another part of that same galaxy to witness those same events play out in almost the same way, but in an even weirder and goofy manor. He's now returned to the original part of that same galaxy which had somehow got even worse, weirder, goofier, and somehow sadder. It seemed like something that held enormous promise, but turned out to be a fantastic disappointment. That's the problem with holidays. They're supposed to be a time to celebrate, but they sometimes turns out so bad that it can drive a man to drink. In this part of the galaxy the star wars continue through the holidays and the denizens are determine to make the holidays special in these dark times. Join Zo as he celebrates Life Day on this Star Wars Holiday Special.

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?

Everyone longs for the glory days—that moment in life or career when everything clicked and it felt like you couldn't miss. On this episode, we're talking about actors and filmmakers who decided, decades later, to try and capture that magic again. From Tom Cruise revving back up as Maverick, to Michael Keaton slipping on the wig and makeup for Beetlejuice once more, to icons like Harrison Ford, Jamie Lee Curtis, and Mark Hamill stepping back into their legendary roles—we're digging into what it means when stars revisit past hits. We also look at directors like Tim Burton, Ridley Scott, and Roland Emmerich returning to the worlds that made them famous, and comic book legends Frank Miller, Chris Claremont, and Jim Starlin revisiting their signature creations and stories. Oh, and we've got a confession about this version of Sidebar that fits right in with this theme. Plus, we ask: – What really drives these creative run-backs—fan service, nostalgia, or the quest for relevance? – Do these returns add to a legacy, or water it down? – And is there any "nostalgia porn" we'd actually welcome?

Mark Hamill gets that you probably know more about Star Wars than he does and he's ok with that. In fact, he's so ok with where he's at in his career, he's really not worried about what comes next. Mark talks with Marc about his early days on soap operas, the faith he had in Star Wars being a big hit while they were making it, the casting troubles he came up against in Hollywood that made him seek work on Broadway, and the voiceover acting that changed his career. They also talk about his connection to Late Night with David Letterman and his recent work in two Stephen King adaptations, The Life of Chuck and The Long Walk. Hosted on Acast.
