This week we review and rate the adventure movie Star Wars: Episode IV - A New Hope. Music Provided By: Greg Gibbs / Most Guitars Are Made of Trees Gringo Star / All Y'All

Next year, to celebrate 50 years of lightsabers, Star Wars: A New Hope will be shown in IMAX, which is relavant to us considering that we have one of the few IMAX theatres in America right here in town

Raiders of the Lost Ark captivated audiences on the big screen 45 years ago, today the movie feels just as fresh, exciting, and mesmerizing. Teacher, treasure hunter, preserver of rare antiquities Indiana Jones goes on a quest for the Ark of the Covenant, battling Nazis and his nemesis Belloq. But Indy can't do it alone, and has support from Karen Allen as Marion and John Ryhs-Davies as Sallah and George Harris as Katanga. For fashion designer Dan Stroupe, the movie has special meaning. Indy Influences are present in his brand and collections, notably the elements of travel since every collection of Dan's is based on a place he has been. With each collection he designs, and each garment and accessory created, Dan strives to inspire wonder and adventure through fashion. -Dan Stroupe is the founder of Oak & Audubon, an accessories and made-to-order clothing brand and labor of love. As its chief designer, he brings decades of experience in luxury retail, custom clothing, and creative direction to his fashion label. Born in Charlotte, NC on Old Oak Lane, Stroupe has lived in New York City on Audubon Avenue for over a decade. While the brand's namesake is based on places he has called home, Oak & Audubon evokes the pleasures and joys of travel, something Stroupe has been fortunate to experience all his life, having travelled all over the world. Stroupe has a degree in Illustration, has worked for many years as a graphic designer and art director, all while working in the luxury clothing industry. He cut his teeth at Bloomingdales on 59th Street, eventually moving to world renowned shirtmakers Turnbull & Asser where he spent over a decade serving business tycoons, actors, politicians, and royalty. While at Turnbull & Asser he managed their bespoke services in the New York Townhouse and the By Appointment trunk shows for North America, as well as internationally. Currently, along with Oak & Audubon, Stroupe is now back in ready to wear full time, managing the Men's Loro Piana business at Bergdorf Goodman. And he's designing a new menswear collection for a new completely American Made label debuting next spring. https://oakandaudubon.comhttps://instagram.com/oakandaudubon-Raiders of the Lost Ark (1981)https://imdb.com/title/tt0082971/https://esquire.com/style/mens-fashion/a25848350/indiana-jones-style-fashion-outfits/ -Other movies discussed:Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom (1984)Star Wars: A New Hope (1977)

From adventure and sacrifice to redemption and hope, each week reminds us that God is present in every part of our story—inviting us into something greater. This week is our last week in the Cinema Sundays Series. Our Director of Men & Youth Ministries, Ryan Silvia, closes out the summer with the epic journey of a young moisture farmer turned Jedi named Luke Skywalker. In the movie Star Wars: A New Hope, Ryan discusses how in a universe of shadows, Christ is always the light that dispels the darkness. And as his followers, we are to identify the beauty and hope of Christ in everything we see and do.  Passage: Revelation 21:18-26 NOTE: To see the clip played during the service, click HERE.

In Episode 157, hosts Alyce and Laura are* worried about Olivia Coleman in the upcoming movie, Wicker. I mean… splinters… There are a lot of corrections. We're not sorry though, our Caravan of Corrections gives us content during slow news cycles Star Wars Visions: The Ninth Jedi series dropped all episodes on August 5. Have you watched? Tell us what you think! D23 is happening next weekend. There are a few panels we're hoping someone will livestream or livetwe-- uh, what is the Bluesky equivalent of livetweeting? A Welsh dub of Star Wars: A New Hope? FINALLY!  Never stop never stopping making fun of the fact that the Ahsoka show had the balls to go 4 years in between seasons   “Remember Furbies? I miss those little guys” -said no one ever. But Disney Parks won't  let that stop them from breeding these unholy Furby-Ewok hybrids. Bae (aka Ewan McGregor) and Anne Hathaway are out here promoting their new non-Jurassic-Park dinosaur movie, but the real news is Bae still wants to do more Obi-Wan.  The Mando movie won the week on Video on Demand, but that victory is equivalent to being the best shot in a platoon of stormtroopers. But this dude claiming to be the CEO of Disney says a win is a win. Starfighter keeps on Starfighting, this time in the MCU.  “I can't wait to watch Robot Chicken at the Lucas Museum,” said someone who only kinda browsed this article.

Star Wars opened on May 25th, 1977, in 32 American cinemas. The first cut had been a disaster. The director of photography and director were barely speaking. The ILM crew, working in a Van Nuys warehouse in temperatures of up to 130 degrees Fahrenheit, had burned through most of their budget on shots the director deemed unusable. The Tunisian shoot had led to cast injuries and a potential war with Libya. The director was hospitalised with hypertension during production. Its cast were convinced it would fail, as were 20th Century Fox executives. The odds were stacked against it.And yet... what followed was the biggest box office phenomenon in cinema history.But there's more to the story than how Star Wars succeeded. It asks what the film meant to 1977 America, to the New Hollywood generation it emerged from, and to the industry it permanently transformed.Star Wars wouldn't be Star Wars without Marcia Lucas, whose editorial instincts built the Death Star trench run almost from the ground up; John Dykstra and the young engineers at Industrial Light & Magic who invented motion-control camera technology in a Van Nuys warehouse, and Alan Ladd Jr., the one Fox executive who greenlit a film he openly admitted he didn't understand.It's a story worthy of a 350th episode.Massive thanks to Andy from Geek Salad for contributing.

Rogue One was the first anthology movie announced post the Disney takeover of Lucasfilm in 2012; the year after Star Wars Episode VII The Force Awakens had enticed and delighted audiences across the world. The rogue one, you might say...Rogue One, born of the simple question "how did the Death Star plans end up with Princess Leia?" is probably most famous for its CGI recreations of Grand Moff Tarkin and Princess Leia, and its enduring of lengthy re-shoots to change the narrative of the third act and insert additional scenes.Grand Moff Tarkin.... well that's another issue entirely. At least Carrie Fisher was alive to approve her younger likeness....As a spin-off of the existing Skywalker Saga, Rogue One remains separate to the existing story enough to be talked about independently, but connected enough to matter in the timeline between Episode III: Revenge of the Sith and Episode IV: A New Hope.It shows the true sacrifice of rebellion; the nameless soldiers who gave their lives for a greater cause are given names. It's a powerful reminder on the cost of war, because we never hear the names of these characters again.Like all rebellions, it's built on hope.Right now, we could all do with a little more of thatThis episode was first published on: 11th June 2020Mentioned in this episode:From the ArchiveThere's no new episode this week, so I thought you might be interested in revisiting this slightly older, but no less brilliant episode.

What kind of exotic tacos is Brandon eating and crying about? And how many new musical guitar accessories can Lukas show off in this episode?

WSTR Galactic Public Access — Episode 436: Rodians In this episode of WSTR Galactic Public Access, Todd Hoffman returns to the show to continue the Rishi's Species segment, this time focusing on the Rodians—the reptilian, swamp-dwelling species best known for Greedo, the iconic bounty hunter from Star Wars: A New Hope. Todd explores what makes Rodians so recognizable, from their bug-like eyes and suction-cup fingers to their rough, pebbly skin and reputation as cunning hunters. The conversation looks at how their species is portrayed across Star Wars lore, including appearances in the Cantina, the Clone Wars, Return of the Jedi, Rebels, and the Bad Batch, and asks whether Greedo has unfairly become the defining Rodian in fan memory. The episode also digs into the broader cultural and storytelling potential of Rodians, comparing them to Mandalorians, discussing their possible role in bounty hunting and crime dramas, and imagining what kind of Star Wars series could center a Rodian lead. Along the way, Todd touches on behind-the-scenes trivia, including the evolution of Greedo's name, production notes, and the voice work that helped shape the character. News of the Week Todd covers three Star Wars headlines: "May the Force Be With You" was ranked the best Star Wars quote of all time in a recent Parade article Hasbro revealed a Jaina and Jacen Solo Black Series two-pack Reports suggest Star Wars: Starfighter footage may have been shown at a Disney cinema event Cantina Chat The episode closes with a personal catch-up: Carla is traveling for wedding shower celebrations Heather has officially embraced her cat-lady era Todd shares family updates, Father's Day gifts, and recent gaming talk, including Red Dead Redemption, Fortnite, and anticipation for Grand Theft Auto VI Call to Action WSTR invites listeners to share their thoughts on Rodians, Greedo, and underrated Star Wars species via social media, voicemail, or email.

Our resident Gen Z'er, Alexis is celebrating May the 4th coming up by watching Star Wars: Episode IV- A New Hope... for her first time EVER. She hasn't seen any films in the franchise...until now!See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A long time ago, in movie theaters not far away, Star Wars: A New Hope revolutionized American entertainment. In honor of May the 4th, we explore how a scrappy space fantasy reinvented a tale as old as time — and gave Americans hope in a time of difficulty. We'll also trace the journey of two bickering droids from a galaxy far, far away to the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History. Guests: Ryan Lintelman, curator of entertainment at the Smithsonian National Museum of American HistoryEric Jentsch, curator at the Smithsonian National Museum of American HistoryDawn Wallace, objects conservator at the Smithsonian National Museum of American History

So unfortunately, this episode has no clips--however, if you'd like to engage in the full episode, visit https://youtu.be/nRP8201-qgk to view the episode in its entirety on the YouTube channel.Every man arrives at the moment where he has to answer the question: Am I really who I think I am?Luke Skywalker faces that moment 30,000 feet above the Death Star — guidance computer off, Obi-Wan's voice in his head, Vader on his tail. No proof. Just faith.Author, documentary filmmaker, and men's coach Eric Rogell joins Paul to break down Star Wars: A New Hope through the lens of origin stories, fear vs. courage, and what it actually takes for a lion raised by lambs to become who he's meant to be. Eric's story — raised by a single mom, kept safe from everything, angry about it for years — mirrors Luke's more than he realized. And probably yours too.In this episode: why stories are the software of the soul, the difference between a culture of fear and a culture of courage, why the villain is just the hero of the other side, and the moment Luke stopped being a farm boy and became who he was always meant to be.Find Eric's book Lions Raised as Lambs at lionsraisedaslambs.com.

This episode reaches back into the archives of your 50,000‑watt New York radio days in 1997, bringing forward a resonant conversation with LeVar Burton whern he had just released Aftermath, a speculative, cautionary tale about a near‑future America fractured by racial conflict. The discussion explores the novel's characters, its themes of redemption and hope, and Burton's reflections on the 20th anniversary of Roots—a role and cultural moment that continued to shape him two decades later. Tony Tellado was also joined by Peter Fletzer, then a writer for Star Wars Galaxy magazine and now the host of the Around the Galaxy podcast. Together, you revisit the excitement, controversy, and technical wizardry surrounding the 1997 Special Edition release of Star Wars: A New Hope. This episode blends literary sci‑fi, cultural history, and fandom in a way that feels both nostalgic and surprisingly current. SAVE 17% ON PLUS  

This week Craig, Phil, and Will watch quite possibly the most important movie of all time, Star Wars: A New Hope! Also on the pod, Will talks about Star Wars a lot. Like a lot. Probably too much.

A long time ago, in a galaxy that still feels oddly close to home, The Commentary Booth kicked off its 50th anniversary Star Wars rewatch exactly the way George Lucas intended, in release order. Jamie Apps and Corrina Mabey return to where it all began, revisiting Star Wars: Episode IV – A New Hope ahead of the film's upcoming 50th anniversary cinema run of the original cut.This episode is part love letter, part gentle rant, and part deep dive into how a scrappy 1977 space opera reshaped blockbuster cinema forever. Jamie and Corrina unpack the misfit cast who went on to define pop culture, the genius business gamble that turned merchandising into a goldmine, and why practical effects still hit harder than modern CGI. There's nostalgia, frustration (yes, the special editions come up), and genuine awe at how much of modern sci-fi traces back to this single film.Along the way, they debate whether A New Hope is really Luke's story at all, argue the spiritual versus scientific take on the Force, and reflect on the personal memories that make Star Wars more than just a franchise.Highlights Breakdown:

Movies that change cinema often come from outsiders – whether it's Orson Welles making Citizen Kane or George Lucas making Star Wars a.k.a. Episode IV: A New Hope. The excellent graphic novel Lucas Wars by artist Renaud Roche and writer Laurent Hopman just came out in English (the original French title is Les Guerres de Lucas.) I talk with Renaud and Laurent about why the making of Star Wars was such a long shot, and how the production changed the lives of everyone involved. Plus, we discuss the unsung heroes who helped make Star Wars happen -- like Lucas's ex wife Marcia and studio mogul Alan Ladd Jr.   Imaginary Worlds was just nominated for a Signal Award for Best Arts & Culture podcast!
