A Star Wars movie is back in theaters for the first time since 2019! In this episode of Hyperspace Theories, Tricia Barr and B.J. Priester kick off our analysis of The Mandalorian and Grogu with a discussion of the major storytelling decisions underlying the film, which is directed by Jon Favreau and co-written by Favreau, Dave Filoni, and Noah Kloor (The Book of Boba Fett). As the sixth movie of the Disney era and the first Star Wars film built upon source material from outside the preceding movies – specifically the three seasons of the Disney+ streaming series The Mandalorian as well as adjacent series The Book of Boba Fett and Ahsoka – the creation of The Mandalorian and Grogu faced a number of challenges not previously faced by theatrical Star Wars, including an imperative to produce the movie on a considerably smaller budget than the Sequel Trilogy releases while reviving fan and customer enthusiasm for Star Wars on the big screen and the ancillary merchandise revenue that has long accompanied Star Wars films. This context in the state of the franchise explains a number of key decisions about the story built for The Mandalorian and Grogu, including the desire to acknowledge the full range of previous Star Wars stories and fans, from the Original Trilogy and Expanded Universe to the Prequels, The Clone Wars, and Disney-era films, animation, and publishing. We also examine the themes found at the heart of the story, and the non-Star Wars cinematic influences on Favreau's movie. We then revisit a frequent aspect of the Hyperspace Theories podcast: examining how Star Wars' longstanding association with the monomyth story structure shapes the tale being told in The Mandalorian and Grogu. Unsurprisingly, as a standalone film rather than a segment within a trilogy, The Mandalorian and Grogu readily aligns with the cinematic story structure expressed by Christopher Vogler, a distillation and updating of the classical monomyth found in the work of Joseph Campbell. This plot structure also guides the character arcs for The Mandalorian and Grogu, which features the two titular characters as well as significant character development for a third: Rotta the Hutt, who faces his own father-son thematic turmoil as well as pivotal choices about his path in life and the future he seeks for himself in the galaxy far far away.

Noooooooo!!! Actually ,yes., We're re-examining the Star Wars prequels with their racist portrayals, wooden dialogue, and still kinda badass lightsaber fights. If you hate these movies Holden is your guy. If you think they're both ambitious and prescient, then Jake is your guy. If you're caught in the middle and just want your friends to hug it out and stop fighting about Jar Jar then you'll agree with Mike. It's a fun time racing through this pod about pod racing. Some would certainly say more fun than the movies themselves. Want even more Nerd of Mouth?

In this final episode, we'll cover the 4th, final, and potentially worst book in the Amber prequel series, which ended unceremoniously in 2005, following the tragic death of the publisher Byron Preiss.

We cover the remainder of To Rule in Amber.

This hour-long episode covers the first half of the 3rd book in the prequel trilogy: To Rule In Amber. Oberon gathers up some carpenters, hires an architect, and starts building Amber. King Author of Chaos easily waltzes an army through Shadow. And there's a big reveal of the true identity of Lord Zon.

We'll cover the remainder of Chaos & Amber in this episode. Oberon agrees to a betrothal so he can get a party thrown for him. They kill the sub-boss, Aber turns on Dworkin, and we finally make it to the Primal Pattern. The plot is entirely lame while also running counter to the Amber creation myth as we know it.

A simple idea this month - what Doctor Who stories deserve a prequel? If you've got 20m to spare, we'd love you to tune in. What would your picks be? Why not write in and let us know? Contact us: Bluesky: @thedwshow.net X / Twitter: @theDWshow Email: hello@theDWshow.net Substack: thedwshow.substack.com Facebook: facebook.com/theDWshow

We'll cover the bulk of Chaos & Amber in this episode, which amounts to very little action, and a ton of waiting around. Oberon and Aber talk about things, Dworkin is still missing in the Courts of Chaos, and Oberon is saved from a succubus. The origin story of Amber is made more convoluted, and the writing generally fails dramatically to live up to franchise.

In this episode we'll breeze through the first half of the 2nd prequel book, Chaos and Amber. It's slow-going, adolescent writing, doing little to excite either a general reader or an Amber fan. Betancourt seems somewhat lost himself, as whole scenarios are repeated from Dawn of Amber, and little of interest moves the action forward.

We'll wrap up Dawn of Amber in this extended episode.

Veysel ist zurück und hat jede Menge exklusive Infos im Gepäck: Karriereende? Welche Features sind auf seinem neuen Album? Könnte es einen Kinofilm zu "4 Blocks" geben? Und werden er und Kida Khodr Ramadan Teil des Prequels "4 Blocks Zero" sein? Im Gespräch mit Simon blickt der gebürtige Essener auf die Höhen und Tiefen seiner Vergangenheit und appelliert: Mit Kriminalität zu prahlen, ist nicht cool! Fängt man an, das kriminelle Spiel zu leben, macht man etwas falsch - dies gelte auch für die Realness-Debatte im Rap für Veysel. Wer entscheidet, was real und was fake ist? Das und vieles mehr im Interview!

Star Wars begleitet uns schon seit unserer Kindheit - heute sprechen wir im großen Special über die Prequels, Sequels und Serien dazwischen.

We move through to the end of chapter 9, with a lot of superficial exposition and nonsense, as Dawn of Amber tries too hard to be an Amber book, without any of the cleverness, and without anything much happening. Dworkin shows Oberon his electric chair gadget he made that can detect Pattern DNA.

Oberon gets to know his siblings in a place called Juniper, and we barely care. Finally Oberon realizes what we've known all along: that he's the son of Dworkin. I'll talk about the shallow references to Nine Princes, and the lack of any interesting mythology behind the choices being made. Not much happens in these chapters as we get mired down in more exposition and little action.

In this quick Geek Freaks Headlines update, we break down reports that Apple has acquired the rights to Severance from Fifth Season, seemingly to keep the show's future stable as costs balloon. We talk about the reported price tag for Season 2, what that could mean for potential future seasons, and why this move feels similar to how Apple handled Silo. We also touch on the chatter around prequels and spinoffs and why a “how this whole severance procedure started” story could actually rule.00:00 Apple reportedly buys the rights and why this matters00:15 The “too expensive” problem and the Season 2 cost talk00:30 What the reporting suggests about multiple seasons, prequels, and spinoffs00:43 The Silo comparison and the production-location chatter (New York vs Canada)00:55 Fifth Season's other projects and final thoughtsThe big headline is Apple reportedly acquiring the rights from Fifth Season, which could remove a major roadblock tied to rising production costs.Season 2's reported budget number is a reminder that prestige TV is now competing with blockbuster-level spending.Even with rights secured, more seasons are not automatically guaranteed, but the reporting points to bigger long-term ambitions.The Silo comparison suggests Apple is comfortable investing more heavily when it fully controls the property.If spinoffs happen, a prequel focused on the origin of the “switching” concept feels like the most naturally compelling direction.“Season two apparently cost $20 million per episode.”“They can handle the show better and expand it into the future.”“I'd really like a prequel that kind of explores who came up with the idea of this switching personality thing.”If you enjoyed the update, make sure you're subscribed to Geek Freaks Headlines.

In this episode, I cover the overview of the plot of the Dawn of Amber trilogy, and unpack the prologue of the first book.

We return to the All Roads Lead to Amber podcast with a series of episodes that cover the controversial John Betancourt prequels to the Amber series, written in the 2000's following Roger Zelazny's death. I'll kick off the series with a discussion of how the project came to be, despite the explicit wishes of the author that no one else write in the Amber universe. I'll reference my in depth interview with Jane Lindskold, who lived with Roger in his final year, after Roger left his wife Judy.

Preston & Child, the New York Times bestselling author duo known as Douglas Preston and Lincoln Child individually, are at the top of their game. Their writing has been praised as “consistently exciting and never predictable” (Associated Press) and “[there's] nothing else like them” (Washington Post).  PENDERGAST: The Beginning joins Pendergast as a brazen rookie under the supervision of Special Agent Chambers. While investigating a gruesome crime in the Mississippi bayou, they uncover a string of grisly, ritualistic killings that defy any known serial killer profile. With Pendergast's brilliance and unorthodox methods, they solve the case and find the killer… and that is when the true horror begins.

Chris returns to Patreon to talk about a topic near and dear to his heart: the hype surrounding the prequels and sequels. What did the Star Wars landscapes look like for each going in? Which set of movies had the biggest anticipation? Biggest hype?

We're at the start of a new year so we've decided to go back to the beginning as we look at the opening scenes of each movie in the Skywalker Saga! Each of these opening sequences serves a purpose for the film and we discuss how they set the tone for the movies they introduce us to. We start at the beginning with the Prequels; diving into Jedi business, an assassination attempt, and a massive space battle! Keep your concentration here and now where it belongs. Hosted on Acast.

Before Dandelion. Before Ciri. Before Blaviken and Brokilon and baths with Yennefer. Before Geralt found himself following destiny and doing all the impressive things for which he's known, he was a fresh-faced teen stumbling through life, making poor decisions and hanging with people of questionable reputation. (Guess which version we find ourselves relating to!) “Crossroads of Ravens” is the new Witcher novel by author Andrzej Sapkowski that focuses on Geralt's first year on the path. In this first of two episodes discussing the book, we uncap a bottle of Early Times Bottled-in-Bond Bourbon before engaging in a fairly spoiler-free conversation on important literary topics like Geralt getting his first leather jacket, possibly getting his v-card punched and whether the second time's the charm when it comes to fighting strigas. Or would that be the first…? Prequels are confusing, guys!

We sit down with author Adam Christopher to talk about his new novel, Master of Evil.

The Brothers Krynn return to share their fan fiction, The Kenobi Timeline. Inspired by the Legends novel, Secrets of the Jedi, the story follows the what-if scenario of Obi-Wan and Obi-Wan's lover, Siri secretly having a child. From there events unfold unexpectedly, especially with lesser-known companions of Anakin and Obi-Wan who are the focus of the narrative. Each of these characters has a fully fleshed-out backstory with motivations that weave into but never contradict the events of the Prequels. As you listen along, you can refer to the character glossary provided by the Brothers Krynn: Tahlon Kenobi: son of Obi-Wan Kenobi and Siri Tachi (Kenobi), Wields a double-sided Blue lightsaber, his style is Form IV (Ataru variant) Talanis Salazzar: Mandalorian warrior woman, 5 years older than Tahlon. Number one Mandalorian bounty-hunter after Jango Fett Darael Feran: Trandoshan Jedi Master, Wields double-sided Green lightsaber, his style is Form III (Soresu variant), Melirah Stardust's master before leaving the order to join the Jedi, who chose to leave to work with Dooku in the CIS Melirah Stardust: A young Jedi, same age as Anakini with Red hair, born on Tattooine to a Moisture Farmer, she is hot-headed, yet dreams of being a healer. She was Darael Feran's padawan. She is the most gifted seer of her generation. Her style is Form VI (Jar'Kai) (Form IV Ataru Variant) Her right-handed lightsaber is yellow, her left-handed one is blue Mi'kraan Darklighter: A young Jedi, born on the same day, same hour as Melirah, though the two are not related, they share a bond with each other. She is tall and blonde haired, statuesque, the more beautiful of the two. A gentle soul who specializes in diplomacy and teaching younglings. She dislikes violence in all its forms, and has requested to resign her military position, but has been refused. A favourite of Yoda. Her style is Form VI (Jar'Kai) (Form III Soresu variant) Her right-hand lightsaber is Green, her left-hand is Yellow Fergus Feld: One year older than Anakin, a personality like Sturm Brightblade (Dragonlance), is fanatically loyal to the order, and a good friend of Tahlon. He does not trust Anakin and thinks he will turn to the darkside, and in extension dislikes Obi-Wan, a favourite of Yoda, who was abused by his master, Yaduu. His lightsaber style is Form V, and Form VII (Shien/Djem-So and Juyo) his lightsaber colour is blue Grrwyan: A wookie Jedi Tahlon grew up with. He dislikes Tahlon. His style is Form V (Shien/Djem-So) His lightsaber colour is Blue Ivec'leba: A twi'lek initiate Tahlon grew up with, she was sold into slavery, and liberated by Millennia Far'lin. She dies in Tahlon's arms when he is an initiate Jedi Master Chirus: A half-Blind Solustan jedi, who exposed his previous padawan's affair with another jedi, which led her to commit suicide, which traumatized. He later becomes Tahlon's master, and is three years older than Dooku. He dies on Geonosis. His apprentice was a young woman by the name of Yasmina Shen. Her former lover fled with her child to the outer rim, and founded a Jedi cult which her widow and son will end up fighting in the clone wars on the side of the Republic, as Chirus made peace with him three years before he died. Chirus' style is Form VI (Niiman) His colour is Green. Millennia Farland: The daughter of a deceased freedom fighter of Ryloth, Millennia picked up his torch and his movement to liberate all the Twi'leks from the Hutts and the Exchange, she has since become the Senator of Renkloth. (We set the planet in the neighbouring star system next to Ryloth.) She is a firebrand, who is friends of Tahlon, hates the Hutts and consistently pushes for Republican interference in twi'lek affairs, and has become disillusioned with the Senate. She is also given a military commission for the Grand Army of the Republic. Alpha Squad: Tahlon's personal Commando unit.

How funny is R2 lighting those guys on fire after whizzing oil all over them? And, yeah, that Vader shout at the end of the movie is still one of the most unintentionally hilarious moments in all of Star Wars! PLUS: Palpatine blurs out his Zoom background when making secret calls from the toilet!
