With the release of The Mandalorian and Grogu in our rear windows, we're shifting focus to next year's Ryan Gosling-led Star Wars: Starfighter. We break down all the news and latest rumors, including stuff we've been told by those in-the-know. Plus, we review interview highlights from director Shawn Levy and Amy Adams. Will Starfighter be a lead-in for the next Star Wars trilogy? We discuss the possibility. But we're not done with the Mando movie - We review the Theater Ears app's Jon Favreau director commentary track and discuss the experience. Plus, listener feedback on the expectations placed on the film and the shifting tastes of filmgoers. And directly from the NBA Finals, Victor Wembanyama from the Spurs is a huge Star Wars fan and we look at the evidence.
Alex (Lance Guest) dreams of big opportunities and a better life away from the trailer park he is currently living in. He's denied a loan to attend the university of his choice, and this bums him out – big time! He then spends his night dominating the high score and beating a Starfighter arcade game. His girlfriend, Maggie (Catherine Mary Stewart), is VERY impressed! Nice moves, Alex! Little did everyone know that this arcade machine was actually a recruiting tool to find the best starfighters for real Gunstar spaceships. The inventor of Starfighter, Centauri (Robert Preston), rolls up in a future-mobile and a robot/Beta to sweep Alex away to the cosmos. Alex teams up with a good-humored pilot, Grig (Dan O'Herlihy), and together they will save Rylos or die trying. RTS checks out all the amenities that the Star League has to offer. Their craft services are solid! Jeremy is not about “victory or death.” He takes the first space bus outta this joint. La-Mar unleashes the Death Blossom from the start! Pew Pew! Are you the chosen one? Do you need to get into a star fight? Probably! The galaxy needs you!

For years, Star Wars fans have asked Lucasfilm for one thing: QUALITY OVER QUANTITY. Now, with Ahsoka Season 2 and Starfighter both moving through production and post-production, the franchise finds itself in an unusual place. Things feel... quiet. But is that a bad thing? Tonight we'll discuss what Lucasfilm's creative teams could be working on behind the scenes as they map out the next era of Star Wars. With major projects in development and the franchise approaching its 50th anniversary in 2027, is this lull giving writers and creators the time they need to build something special? Or will fans fall into the same trap we've seen before, demanding fewer projects one moment and asking "Where is everything?" the next? Join us live as we discuss: • The current state of Star Wars development • Ahsoka Season 2 and what comes next • Starfighter and the future of theatrical Star Wars • Why Lucasfilm may be keeping quiet right now • The challenge of balancing quality and quantity • What fans really want from the future of Star Wars Grab your favorite beverage and join the discussion in the chat.

James and Paul are back in the cockpit for a full spoiler-heavy chat about The Mandalorian and Grogu movie.After seeing it twice, once as mates and once with the kids, we break down what worked, what dragged, and whether the film really did feel like Mando Season 4 stitched into a movie. We talk Grogu snacks, Rotta the Hutt, Sigourney Weaver's Leia energy, surprise Star Wars cameos, the lack of an opening crawl, the return of familiar aliens, and that brilliant live-action dejarik arena scene.We also get into the online reactions, the “too many aliens / not enough aliens” Star Wars fan paradox, whether Hutts should speak Basic, and what this film might mean for the future of Mando, Grogu, Ahsoka and Starfighter.Expect spoilers, pub ratings, baffled questions about Imperial shooting accuracy, and one very important phrase: big pipe.In this episode:Our first and second viewing reactionsWas this really just a long TV episode?Should Star Wars movies always have an opening crawl?Rotta the Hutt and the Hutt family dramaSigourney Weaver, Zeb, Embo and the cameosThe dejarik monster fight sceneGrogu becoming more independentWhat comes next for Mando and Grogu?Drop your thoughts in the comments.

Er flog den „Witwenmacher" – und überlebte. Frank Heinevetter war einer der letzten Piloten, der F-104 und Tornado flog. In dieser Folge der Privatpiloten-Lounge bin ich zu Besuch bei Frank Heinevetter – einem ehemaligen Kampfpiloten der Luftwaffe, der als einer der letzten noch lebenden Piloten sowohl die legendäre F-104 Lockheed Starfighter als auch den Panavia Tornado aktiv geflogen hat. Frank erzählt aus erster Hand über seine Zeit beim Jagdbombergeschwader, die Herausforderungen des Starfighters, den gefürchteten „Witwenmacher", und warum das Flugzeug trotz seines schlechten Rufes für ihn bis heute eine heimliche Liebe geblieben ist. In dieser Folge erfährst du: ✈️ Warum der Starfighter so viele Abstürze hatte – und wer wirklich schuld daran war ✈️ Technische Details zur F-104: Mach 2,2, Werkstattflüge, Überschallprüfungen ✈️ Der Moment, als Frank beim Luftkampf seinen ersten Kameraden verlor ✈️ Was General Steinhoff änderte, um die Unfallserie zu stoppen ✈️ Warum Frank den Starfighter als „Porsche" und den Tornado als „Mercedes" bezeichnet ✈️ Das Terrain Following Radar (TFR) des Tornado – und seine Tücken bei Nacht und Schlechtwetter ✈️ Warum Deutschland heute die F-35 kauft und der Eurofighter als Atomwaffenträger ausscheidet Frank ist seit 1968 bei der Luftwaffe, flog rund 10 Jahre die F-104G und anschließend 10 Jahre den Tornado PA-200. Seinen letzten Dienstflug absolvierte er am 2. Oktober 1992.
Zo visits some old friends at a trailer park. It seems like a normal place with kids running amok, teenagers fooling around and senior citizens looking for someone to fix their TV's so that they can watch their soap operas. Alex is just the guy the guy that they need: a recent high school graduate who is this neighborhood's handyman. Zo noticed that Alex is also fantastic at the Starfighter videogame. Zo had tried the game himself and isn't really good at it, but Alex is a genuine prodigy. Unfortunately, there's not much that anyone can do with the skills of "Best Videogame Player" in the mid 1980's. It's not like you can play this Starfighter game to train to pilot an actual spaceship right? . . . Right?

Waarom wordt Amelia Earhart maar niet gevonden? Elke vijf jaar is het weer raak (en altijd weer loos alarm) als een stuk geblutst aluminium aangetroffen wordt op een onbewoond eiland. Maar zolang er nog spannende boeken verkocht worden, en er nog heftig-speculatieve docu's op TV zijn, komt het laatste hoofdruk van dit meeslepende Amerikaanse levensverhaal maar niet in zicht…laat staan voorzien van een happy end. En dan: waarom stortten maar liefst tweehonderd van negenhonderdenzestien (!) Duitse Starfighters neer? Onnozele piloten? Fout vertaalde POH's? Technici, weggekocht door BMW en VW? Goof & Goot speculeren - zoals gewoonlijk - weer flink op los, maar toch ontegenzeglijk soms met enige kennis van zaken. En waarom leidde de Ede-Wageningse Rudy de topterrorist Mohamed Atta eigenlijk op? Om WTC's bllind binnen te vliegen? Terwijl er al vermoedens waren? Goof weet intussen dat er administratief niks ontbrak aan 's mans opleiding. Enne…wat get-there-itis? De ernstigste ziekte van de luchtvaart? Ooit van gehoord, of zelfs zelf ervaren? Dan tot slot: gaan er nu eindelijk elektrische drones pendelen tussen Schiphol en het Amsterdamse Museumplein? Luistert nu allen braaf, dan bent u weer op de hoogte!

"Happy May the Fourth!"It's that time for another special episode of This is the Way Podcast, but it's a little less special than years past.I tried, "fam" I really tried. I was perhaps a little too hopeful that one of three people I asked would say yes to an interview, but next year, I'll try my sister. Brother, mother, and sister-in-law all said "no thanks" to an interview. Is that because they don't love Star Wars enough to do it? Yes. Oh, they still like Star Wars, but not enough to help a "brother" (son) out.This year it's not Andor or Ahsoka, but The Mandalorian and Grogu that's the topic du jour. Next year it will be Starfighter, of course, but for now, let's enjoy our little green guy and battle buddy in beskar. Once again, I've got 365 days to plan (a little better) for May the Fourth...the 2027 edition.If you'd like to comment, please send email to the address mentioned during the podcast, but comments on YouTube, on Facebook, Instagram, X, or Spotify are also fine. May the Fourth be with you in 2026!

In this week's episode, I answer questions I receive whenever I mention that STARFIELD is my favorite game of the 2020s. This coupon code will get you 50% off the audiobook of Half-Orc Paladin, Book #3 in the Half-Elven Thief series, (as excellently narrated by Leanne Woodward) at my Payhip store: HECTOR50 The coupon code is valid through April 20th, 2026. TRANSCRIPT 00:00:00 Introduction and Writing Updates Hello, everyone. Welcome to Episode 298 of The Pulp Writer Show. My name is Jonathan Moeller. Today is April 10th, 2026. Today I'm doing an FAQ about my experiences with Starfield, which is my favorite game of the 2020s. Before that, we will have Coupon of the Week and a progress update on my current writing, publishing, and audiobook projects. So let's start off with Coupon of the Week. This week's Coupon Code will get you 50% off the audiobook of Half-Orc Paladin, Book #3 in the Half-Elven Thief series (as excellently narrated by Leanne Woodward), at my Payhip store. That coupon code will be HECTOR50. And as always, the coupon code and the link to my Payhip store will be available in the show notes for this episode. And this coupon code will be valid through April 20th, 2026. So if you need a new audiobook for this spring, we have got you covered. Now for an update on my current writing, publishing, and audiobook projects. As of this recording, I am done with the first pass of editing through Blade of Wraiths and then starting on the second. It's taken a bit longer than I've wanted because I've had a lot of Real Life Stuff to do, but if all goes well, I'm hoping to have the book out in the second half of April, so hopefully not too much longer now. I'm also 19,000 words into Dragon-Mage, which will be the sixth book in the Rivah Half-Elven Thief series. Hopefully that will be out in May, if all goes well. No, that might slip to June, but I'm really hoping to get that one out in May. In audiobook news, Hollis McCarthy has started work on Cloak of Illusion, so hopefully if all goes well, we'll have that out to you in May sometime. In fact, I'm hoping that will come out concurrently with Dragon-Mage, because it's always nice when I can stack an ebook and an older audiobook in the series like that together. So that is where we're at with my current writing, publishing, and audiobook projects. 00:01:46 Main Topic: Starfield Now onto our main topic. This is ostensibly a podcast about writing and the business of writing, but I like video games, so we're going to talk about a video game this week. The reason for that is whenever I post about Starfield or share a screenshot from it, I frequently get a number of questions. I think it's because Starfield was an oddly divisive game when it came out. People have strong opinions about it and then have strong opinions about other people's strong opinions and I do not have these strong opinions myself. While I enjoy the game a great deal, if you don't like it, that's fine. There are lots and lots and lots of legitimate reasons to criticize Microsoft, which is the ultimate owner of Starfield. It's possible for two things to be simultaneously true that Microsoft has done a lot of sketchy things, and that Starfield is a good game that I enjoyed. I suspect it's a bit like enjoying a football game while at the same time knowing that the NFL is an unscrupulous cartel that could benefit from some thorough reforms. Despite that, I have to admit that I don't think it's super healthy to make gaming opinions, whether video games or sports games, a core part of your identity. A game in the end is just a fancy toy for amusement and idle moments. If God descended tomorrow and told me that Starfield would vanish from the face of the earth, I'd be rather disappointed, but my dinner would still taste just as good and my house would be just as warm. That said, I did enjoy the game quite a bit. Everybody needs a hobby and even I can't work every hour of every day. I wrote like a hundred novels in the last 10 years. Everyone has their own stresses in life, of course, but we seem to live in particularly stressful time these days, so a harmless hobby is a nice break from real life. The game's newest expansion came out a couple days ago on April 7th. And so with that in mind, I thought I would answer the most common questions I get whenever I post or talk about Starfield. Question: Did Starfield influence your Silent Order Science fiction series at all? No. But I'm always pleased when I get this question because it's easily answered. The final book of Silent Order came out on September the 4th, 2023, and Starfield came out on September 6th, 2023. I tried Starfield like the day after it came out, but I didn't actually start playing it in earnest until April of 2024, like I didn't actually finish the starter dungeon until April of 2024. So no, Starfield was not an influence on Silent Order. It would be fair to say that Silent Order was more influenced by James Bond, some H.P. Lovecraft, and Wing Commander: Privateer, which is actually our next question. Question: What initially drew your interest to Starfield? Part of the game reminded me a lot of Wing Commander: Privateer from the '90s, which was one of my favorite games back in the day. If you're not familiar with it, Wing Commander: Privateer was what's now called a "space trading sim" set in the Wing Commander universe. In all the previous Wing Commander games, you played as a Starfighter pilot fighting in the humans' war against the cat-like Kilrathi invaders. Your missions were assigned to you along with the specific ship you would fly for that mission. But in Privateer, you played a freelance captain with a rundown freighter. You can carry cargo, go bounty hunting, do mercenary work, trading, and just wander around the map following infinite procedurally generated missions from the Mission Board, the Merchants' Guild, and the Mercenaries' Guild. Eventually, you would have enough cash to upgrade your rundown ship to something better and configure it however you liked. There's a main plot, but you can totally ignore it and do whatever you want. I loved Privateer and I finished both it and the expansion. And of course, spent a lot of time doing the infinite procedurally generated quests. Starfield does the same thing, but with 30 years' worth of advancement of game design and technology improvements. In grand Bethesda game tradition, you don't even have to do any of the main plot lines. You can just wander around doing procedurally generated quests. It's like Privateer, but better and with ground-based quests as well. You can get out of your ship and walk around in a way you couldn't in Privateer. In Starfield, you can land at some random science outpost or industrial outpost and the inhabitants will have a quest for you. I've heard Starfield described as a "cozy game", since quite a few people enjoy just building their outposts and their ships and then decorating them like the science fiction version of Animal Crossing or Stardew Valley. In another sense, I suppose Starfield could be described as "cozy adventure". Granted, that might be a strange thing to say about missions where you machine gun space pirates, blow up their base, and then loot all their stuff, but Starfield is an excellent game for just puttering around. It's fun after a long day to play for an hour, take out some space pirates, upgrade your ship a little, maybe tinker with your outpost. And I do like, I have to admit, the main plot line and the various faction quests. Question: So the procedural generation stuff doesn't bother you? No. Procedural generation has been part of gaming forever and long before the civilizational blight that is modern LLM systems. Certainly there are points where the procedural generation of Starfield could be improved and it has been improved with patches, but I enjoy the randomness of it. Question: If you think Starfield is good, why did it have such mixed reviews? It did have some rough points at launch, like the lack of surface vehicles, the lack of city maps, and some weird choices for inventory management (among some other issues, though those were later patched or upgraded). I honestly think the game is better than the mixed reviews would indicate, and I also think the mixed reviews were a combination of different converging social factors, specifically, people's expectations of what they imagined the game would be versus what it actually was, its Xbox and PC exclusivity, and the unfortunate addiction to outrage culture in social media. As I mentioned before, I think it's obvious that we live in stressful times and for a variety of reasons that are beyond the scope of this episode, I think people are overall angrier and eager to lash out when a target presents itself, especially online. Additionally, I suspect a big part of the mixed reviews is that Microsoft has built up a lot of ill will since the launch of Windows 11 and Copilot, and Starfield is a convenient outlet for that. Like Outlook and Teams are widely hated software tools, probably some of the most hated software tools in the world, but your job forces you to use them and you can't do anything about it. It's more effective to criticize a consumer-facing business like video games than it is Outlook and Teams, since those tend to be sold in blocks of thousands of licenses to large institutional customers that don't particularly care what their employees think about Outlook or Teams. In fact, fun fact, while I was writing this episode, Outlook was causing problems on Artemis II, NASA's first manned mission to the moon in over 50 years. So there is yet another historical milestone for Outlook. Question: You've said repeatedly that you don't like multiverse stuff, yet Starfield's main plot revolves heavily around the multiverse. That's true. I don't really like multiverse stuff in fiction because it's hard to execute well without making the story pointless. If there are a billion parallel universes and somebody dies in one of them, so what? Just hop over one universe and find a new version of the dead guy. Multiverse and parallel universe plot lines are a bit like homemade lasagna or homemade spaghetti carbonara. It needs to be done by someone who really, really knows what they're doing, otherwise the end result is sad and unpleasant, indigestible, or outright disgusting. That said, multiverse as a game mechanic is actually the clever idea. Like we all know that if you really like a game, you're going to play it more than once. How many times have you replayed Skyrim? How many uncounted quintillions of times has the original Super Mario Brothers been replayed? Starfield rather cleverly builds that replaying into the game. You can start over in a new universe and play the game again, but this time your character has in- game foreknowledge of everything that's going to happen and that can affect the gameplay in fun ways. Question: Did you really lose 40 pounds while playing Starfield? Yes. Of course, the main factor was some lifestyle changes in terms of exercise and diet, but I did lose 40 pounds since starting to seriously play Starfield in April of 2024. The game was an excellent distraction instead of late night snacking, so I suppose I sublimated the snacking urge into blowing up space pirates. Question: Aren't you worried Starfield will influence or slow down your writing? Well, writers and other creatives draw inspiration from all sorts of places, but no, I'm not worried about that because Starfield draws so heavily on multiverse tropes and as I've mentioned a few times before, I don't really like multiverse stuff in fiction. In terms of productivity, I published a million new words in 2024 and again in 2025. Though in full disclosure, I will be surprised if I hit a million words in 2026 due to the amount of Real Life Stuff I will have to do this year, but admittedly that is Real Life Stuff unconnected to gaming or recreation and it's only April, so who can say how the rest of the year will play out? Question: Did playing Starfield so much take time away from reading? Probably not. In 2025, I read 69 books and by the end of March in 2026, I have read 15. Lots of people read more than I do, but 69 books in a year is still significantly higher than the American national average. In all honesty, I both read less and play fewer video games now than I did like 20, 25 years ago when I had way fewer responsibilities. Question: The expansion pack Shattered Space got mixed reviews, but you really enjoyed it. Why? I thought the concept was intriguing. "Religious leader builds machine to contact his conception of God and accidentally blows up half his capital city and creates a space time rift" is an interesting concept for both a game and for fiction. I also liked how the expansion pack went in depth into the crazy space cultists' home planet, which was a fun environment to play. Shattered Space is definitely Starfield on hard mode though. The game recommends it for Level 35 characters, but I think 50 might be better, if I'm honest. Question: If Starfield was a commercial failure, why do you play it? Well, "commercial success" and "I enjoyed this" don't necessarily overlap on the Venn Diagram, do they? Just because something is popular doesn't mean it is good and just because something is unpopular doesn't mean it is bad. That said, I don't think it's objectively correct to say Starfield is a commercial failure, regardless of one's opinion of the game. Microsoft is a ruthless corporate empire that has absolutely no qualms about cutting things that are liabilities, especially as more and more of its resources go into Copilot and LLM slop (though there are some indications that its AI focus is starting to loosen as reality begins to impose itself on the grand delusion of the AI powered future). Considering that in the two and a half years since Starfield came out, it's received a lot of patches, a lot of new free content, and two paid expansions, it's clear that the Lidless Eye of Microsoft has not turned towards Starfield in fiery wrath, especially since Microsoft laid off lots of people and shut down a bunch of its game studios during that time. People tend to focus on Steam rankings, but that's only a segment (if a very large segment) of the market. Various Starfield devs in interviews have said that the game is in the top 10 for played hours on Xbox Game Pass. Xbox Game Pass is really important to Microsoft, probably more important than the physical Xbox itself. So I don't think it's objectively true that Starfield is a commercial failure, though it definitely wasn't as successful as Skyrim or Fallout 4. Question: Baldur's Gate 3 (BG3) came out at about the same time as Starfield. Did you like Starfield better than Baldur's Gate 3? Yes. Question: What? Why? Everyone knows Baldur's Gate 3 is the better game. Baldur's Gate 3 is an excellent game. Well written, well designed, excellent voice acting, the works. That said, I also think Starfield is an excellent game and I just enjoyed it more. It's a matter of taste, I think, which is not quantifiable. BG3 is a big Larian/BioWare-style narrative RPG, which is kind of its own genre in the same way that a Bethesda RPG is also its own genre. I mentioned above that I enjoy the puttering around aspect of Starfield a great deal and BG3 doesn't offer as much space for that kind of puttering, some but not nearly as much. I have enjoyed that style of narrative RPG in the past. Dragon Age: Origins and Knights of the Old Republic were both excellent games I played back to back in 2009 or maybe 2008, back when I had more time for that kind of thing and I think they qualify as direct predecessors to Baldur's Gate 3. But these days, I like the freedom of puttering more, even if a game like BG3 offers an excellent interactive narrative. Additionally, I admit I got frustrated a lot with BG3 in a way I didn't with Starfield. In BG3, I kept frequently running into Total Party Kill situations, which is exasperating after you've sunk 20 or 30 minutes into a complicated combat encounter. So I think it's objectively and quantifiably true to say that Baldur's Gate 3 is significantly more popular than Starfield, but on the subjective level, I just enjoy Starfield more. Question: Do you like the soundtrack of Starfield? Oh yeah. It's some of my favorite writing music. For fun, go search on YouTube and watch the London Symphony Orchestra's concert of the Starfield soundtrack. The composer Inon Zur gets to conduct some of it. I'd say my favorite tracks are Into the Starfield, New Atlantis, The Safety of the Citizens, Freestar, The New Old Frontier (I think that plays in the Trackers' Alliance headquarters), Cydonia, Sublevels, Neon, and In Silent Orbit. The battle of music when you fight the Star Born is pretty great as well. I think it's called "Stars and Sacrifice", but I'm not 100% sure. I also quite liked the soundtrack for Baldur's Gate 3 as well, to return to an earlier question. Andrew Wincott totally deserved the BAFTA for "Raphael's Final Act." Question: If a Switch 2 port comes along of Starfield, will you buy it? I would wait for reviews, but honestly, I would be amazed if there was a Switch 2 port of Starfield. The Switch 2 is more powerful than its predecessor, but there's no denying that Starfield is a chunky, chunky game. Then again, I wouldn't have thought it was possible to get Cyberpunk 2077, Witcher 3, or Fallout 4 on the Switch, and apparently those are good ports, so I guess we'll see. Question: Favorite Quest in Starfield? The Mantis, Groundpounder, and the entire thing with the Terrormorphs. Also the whole freaky quest with the Crucible and the clones, that was some great '70s-style science fiction stuff. I enjoy any of the quests with Walter Stroud because he's a fun character, and also voiced by the actor who played Quark in Deep Space Nine in the '90s, back when I was playing Privateer. (Full circle moment!) Also fighting The Hunter for the last time is pretty great since he's such a smug Nietzschean jerk. One of the greatest moments in the game is how The Hunter is just chilling in a Spaceport bar and willing to have amiable conversations with you at the start of the game since he's killed alternate versions of you thousands of times before and isn't expecting trouble, so no reason not to have a civil chat over a drink. I also played through the new Trackers' Alliance plotline. If you get the premium edition of Starfield and its bonus 1,000 Creation Credits, I highly recommend you use them on the Trackers' Alliance expansion. It is a lot of fun. Question: Favorite ship in the game? The Razor Leaf and the Ecliptic Claymore. Also, this is a new addition, but I really like the Orchid you pick up from the fake Mantis Quest in the Trackers' Alliance Quest line. I think my favorite overall ship is the Shieldbreaker that you can buy on New Atlantis, but if you're going to buy a ship instead of stealing it, I think Walter's company Stroud-Ecklund (see above) has the best ships. Honestly, one of my favorite activities in Starfield is stealing ships from space pirates. It's always so much fun. Question: Favorite gun? The Magstorm hands down. Peace through superior firepower. The Magstorm is what I used for the final battle with The Hunter and then again for the final mission of Shattered Space. For stealth, the Hard Target with a suppressor and a scope. I've taken out entire pirate bases with the Hard Target and stealth mode. The one Starborn lady who sells stuff to you in New Universes has a really excellent stealth optimized version of the Hard Target in her inventory. I also really like the Urban Eagle pistol you get early in the Vanguard plotline, since it's usually the best gun in the game I found at that point. Conclusion I hope that explains why I enjoy Starfield and answers some of the questions people always seem to have whenever I mention it. I doubt anyone involved with Starfield will ever listen to this, but I would like to thank everyone who has worked on the game in any capacity: devs, artists, writers, composers, Q&A people, everyone. Thank you for all your hard work, which has given me a lot of enjoyment and mental escape during some very stressful times. So that's it for this week.

We're taking a look at four starting with 1984's The Last Starfighter, on the surface a blatent Star Wars knock off (which it is) but a cut above all the other Star Wars crossovers.

Tonight on Sarlacc Digest, we're diving into a new report claiming that Disney insiders are excited about the upcoming Star Wars film Star Wars: Starfighter, but remain skeptical about The Mandalorian & Grogu. But here's the real question: should Star Wars fans trust Disney insiders? With a decade of mixed results under Disney's leadership, from the divisive sequel trilogy including Star Wars: The Last Jedi and Star Wars: The Rise of Skywalker, to critically praised projects like Andor and the massive success of The Mandalorian, the track record is anything but predictable. If the Mandalorian movie looks fantastic and is coming from the creative team that reignited Star Wars excitement on Disney+, why are insiders skeptical? And why has the marketing been so quiet so far? Tonight we break down the report, discuss whether anonymous insiders actually understand what Star Wars fans want, and look at the bigger picture of where the galaxy far, far away might be headed.

Welcome back to The Kristian Harloff Show — your go-to source for the biggest breaking stories in movie news, DC, Marvel, Star Wars, and box office updates. Today's episode dives deep into major shakeups, franchise futures, and early review reactions that could shape the industry in 2026 and beyond. DC Studios In Turmoil? Could James Gunn Exit After WBD/Paramount Deal? Speculation is heating up that James Gunn could potentially leave DC Studios amid ongoing discussions surrounding a possible Warner Bros. Discovery and Paramount Global deal. What would this mean for the DCU slate, including Superman, The Brave and the Bold, and the long-term roadmap Gunn and Peter Safran have been building? Kristian breaks down the rumors, industry implications, and whether this is smoke or real fire. Star Wars: Starfighter – Ryan Gosling Explains Why He Joined Star Wars Ryan Gosling officially stepping into the galaxy far, far away? The Starfighter star reveals why he joined the iconic Star Wars franchise. Is this a one-off standalone, or something bigger for Lucasfilm's evolving slate? Kristian discusses what Gosling's involvement signals for the future of Star Wars films and how it fits into Disney's theatrical strategy. Pirates of the Caribbean – Is Johnny Depp Really Coming Back? A Pirates producer says Johnny Depp will return as Captain Jack Sparrow — if he has his way. But how realistic is that? With Disney navigating franchise reboots and legacy sequels, Kristian analyzes whether a Depp comeback is likely, what it would mean for the box office, and how Pirates could evolve moving forward. Hoppers Early Reviews – Pixar Back On Top? Early reviews for Pixar's Hoppers are overwhelmingly positive. Are we looking at another major win for Pixar Animation Studios? Kristian reviews the first reactions and discusses whether this could be Pixar's next critical and commercial breakout hit.

Space is a dangerous place. Even recently we learned that the entire Artemis program has been rebooted, adding more rockets and risks! In other worlds and other galaxies, “space” is full of human life, music, adventure, romance, and fantastical new worlds. Just in time for Firebreak, book 1 of the Firebird Interlude Trilogy, we're joined by longtime science fiction novelist Kathy Tyers to explore how the best space operas sing through this teeming expanse. Episode sponsors Firebreak by Kathy Tyers Realm Makers 2026 Conference & Expo The Hole-Man by Dan Dietz The Lorehaven Authorship Mission update New at Lorehaven: Andromache review, weekly reviews Subscribe free to get updates and join the Lorehaven Guild You'll get notified of monthly events, like last week's livestream. Backstory: Kathy (Tyers) Gillin Kathy Tyers sold her first novel, Firebird, to Bantam Spectra in 1986. Since its initial 1987 publication, it has been rereleased by Bethany House Publishers, Marcher Lord Press, and Enclave Publishing, and was followed by further Firebird-universe novels Fusion Fire and Crown of Fire. Kathy finished the Firebird series in 2011 and 2012 with Wind and Shadow and the messiah tale Daystar. Enclave Publishing has also re-released her early novels One Mind's Eye, Shivering World (Christy Award winner, 2019), and Crystal Witness. Now she's returning to the Firebird whorl for a new series of novels. The Firebird Interlude trilogy begins March 10 with the release of Firebreak. Kathy is also known for her Star Wars Expanded Universe novels—The Truce at Bakura and New Jedi Order: Balance Point. She lives in Montana with her husband William T. Gillin. KathyTyers.com on Facebook 1. What are the origin stories of space opera? 1818: Mary Shelley's first sci-fi-ish/horror novel Frankenstein 1830: British author Percy Greg's poetical Across the Zodiac Late 19th century: the prolific Jules Verne, across Earth and space Late 19th/early 20th century: H. G. Wells brings the humanism Early 20th century: Edgar Rice Burroughs shares pulp adventure Other written tales and film serials helped create early space opera This tradition focused not just on big ideas, but big human stories Without these tales, we might not have stories like Star Wars And that's one way that today's guest learned she liked sci-fi 2. Why do today's fans love space opera? Kathy Tyers has written harder science fiction, like Shivering World. Spaceships are cool, but many fans like human drama even more. For example, the Firebird Series is set in a far future galactic Whorl. Readers resonate with Lady Firebird and her husband Brennan. This, by the way, marks a rare example of married-couple heroes. Similarly, Star Wars has spaceships, but focuses on human heroes. Christians also see cool ideas and tech as means to human ends. Without our humanity, we become “minds of metal and wheels.” Even the best Star Trek episodes well understood this reality. 3. What might be the future of space opera? More about the Firebird Interlude series—titles, dates, speculation. Coming this June, Kathy Tyers gives a keynote at Realm Makers. Meanwhile, we may expect to March onward into big space opera. Project Hail Mary, based on Andy Weir's novel, gets early plaudits. Next up, actor Ryan Gosling and director Shawn Levy's Starfighter movie (set in the Star Wars universe) is receiving a new hope from fans. People do want futuristic, human-centric science-accented drama. And yet Christians see this not as simply “hope in the human spirit” but hope of redemption, for grace-filled humans and a future age. Com station Top question for listeners What space opera stories help you sing in joyful gratitude? Next on Fantastical Truth Kaizoku ou ni ore wa naru! Today around the world, millions of fans who love Japan's hit manga/anime series, One Piece, are rejoicing. First, because after 1,170+ chapters and nearly 30 years since 1997, creator Eiichiro Oda's pirates-with-powers story is sailing toward its final arcs. Second, because the popular anime is following soon after, breaking hiatus to resume in April. And third, because on March 10, Netflix is christening the One Piece live-action series Season 2, after 2023's Season 1 flagrantly and happily broke the “anime to live-action curse.” Why do fans (like Stephen himself) love these comical, earnest adventures of Captain Monkey D. Luffy and the Straw Hat Pirates?

A jaw-dropping Star Wars rumor is making waves across the fandom. Reports claim that Star Wars: Starfighter will feature a lightsaber duel partially shot and directed by Tom Cruise, and on today's episode of The Kristian Harloff Show, we break down how this could actually happen, why Cruise may be involved behind the camera, and whether this bold creative choice makes sense for Lucasfilm's future. We also cover a packed slate of movie and streaming news. Disney has officially found the two leads for its live-action Tangled, sparking debate over casting choices and remake fatigue. DC fans get a major update as rumors swirl around Sebastian Stan's potential role in The Batman – Part II, and what it could mean for Matt Reeves' expanding Gotham universe. On the streaming side, Disney+ is reportedly rolling out a vertical video feed, raising questions about how platforms are adapting to short-form viewing habits. Meanwhile, Netflix users experienced minor outages that may be connected to the ongoing "Conformity Gate" situation. We also react to the explosive new trailer for The Wrecking Crew starring Jason Momoa and Dave Bautista.
