Star Wars character
POPULARITY
In this week's episode of Born to Watch, Whitey and Damo tackle one of the most polarising blockbusters in cinematic history—Star Wars: The Last Jedi. You've heard it before: The Last Jedi either reignited the saga with bold creativity or sent it careening off a cliff into a galaxy far, far away from anything recognisable. For Whitey and Damo, it's the latter, and they aren't afraid to say it. If you're tuning in for a spirited debate, prepare for a critical breakdown of what went wrong in the eighth chapter of this iconic franchise in they're The Last Jedi Review.A Bold Direction, But At What Cost?There's no denying that director Rian Johnson set out to craft something new. From the opening moments, it's clear that The Last Jedi wants to subvert expectations. But sometimes, as Whitey and Damo point out, subversion isn't enough. It's one thing to challenge the audience and twist the familiar beats of a beloved saga, but The Last Jedi feels like it's actively rebelling against its own DNA.Despite its criticisms, The Force Awakens almost worked because it carefully balanced nostalgia with new storylines. It honoured the past while paving the way for new heroes; if honouring is completely copying the original movie, then it did an exceptional job. Johnson, however, appears to toss all of that aside in The Last Jedi. Characters you thought would be key players are sidelined. Moments that seem set up for major payoffs are ignored or reinterpreted in ways that feel detached from the series' core.Whitey and Damo's frustration comes down to one fundamental gripe: legacy. The Last Jedi isn't just telling a new story—it feels like it's actively undoing everything that came before it. The legacy characters—Luke, Leia, and even Han, by extension—are treated in ways that left fans scratching their heads. “Why bother bringing them back at all if you're just going to dismantle their arcs?” asks Whitey, echoing a sentiment that has been brewing since the film's release.The Luke Skywalker DilemmaOne of the biggest sore spots for fans (and for Whitey and Damo) is the treatment of Luke Skywalker. Mark Hamill famously voiced his concerns over Johnson's interpretation of Luke, and many fans, including our podcast duo, couldn't agree more. Gone is the hopeful, idealistic Jedi we last saw in Return of the Jedi, replaced by a brooding hermit who has cut himself off from the Force.Character evolution is important, and no one expects Luke to remain static. But The Last Jedi doesn't show us how Luke got to this point—it simply drops us into a version of him that feels unfamiliar and alien. Whitey and Damo argue that there's a difference between developing a character and fundamentally altering them. The Luke in The Last Jedi is so far removed from the original trilogy's hero that it's hard to connect with him on an emotional level.Wasted PotentialAnother major issue that Whitey and Damo have with The Last Jedi is its handling of certain story arcs set up in The Force Awakens. Love or hate J.J. Abrams' mystery box approach established several intriguing threads: Who are Rey's parents? What's the deal with Supreme Leader Snoke? Will Finn's stormtrooper past play a bigger role? Instead of building on these mysteries, Johnson seems to sweep them aside entirely.Without diving too deeply into spoiler territory, let's say that the answers (or lack thereof) are underwhelming at best. Rey's parentage? A twist that feels less like a revelation and more like a dismissal of everything The Force Awakens set up. Snoke? Well, let's just say his story ends abruptly, leaving many wondering why he was even introduced in the first place. Finn? Regrettably reduced to a side plot that feels more like filler than a meaningful continuation of his arc.Whitey and Damo can't help but feel that The Last Jedi wastes its potential. It introduces interesting ideas—new Force powers, morally grey dilemmas—but fails to develop them satisfactorily. Instead, we're left with a film that feels disjointed, unsure of whether it wants to be a part of the larger Star Wars saga or stand apart as something entirely different.The Bright Spots - The VisualsIt's not all doom and gloom, though. Even Whitey and Damo admit that The Last Jedi excels in some areas. Visually, the film is stunning. Johnson and his cinematographer, Steve Yedlin, deliver breathtaking set pieces from the salt plains of Crait to the lush greenery of Ahch-To. The film's colour palette is rich and vibrant, and the space battles are as thrilling as ever.A Divided FanbasePerhaps the most lasting impact of The Last Jedi is the rift it created within the Star Wars community. Fans are still arguing about it to this day, and while some appreciate Johnson's bold approach, others—like Whitey and Damo—see it as a betrayal of what made Star Wars special in the first place.The guys make an interesting point: The Last Jedi isn't a bad movie in a vacuum. It's well-directed, well-acted, and technically impressive. But as a chapter in the Star Wars saga, it falls short. It disconnects from the past in ways that feel disrespectful rather than innovative. And that's where the disappointment lies.Final ThoughtsIn the end, Star Wars: The Last Jedi is a film that tries to do something different. For some, that boldness was refreshing. For Whitey and Damo, it was a misstep—a film that lost sight of what makes Star Wars timeless. As always, they bring their trademark humour and honesty to the discussion, making for an entertaining listen whether you agree with them or not.So, if you're a fan of heated debates and unapologetic opinions, don't miss this week's episode of Born to Watch. Whether you loved or loathed The Last Jedi, one thing's for sure: Whitey and Damo aren't afraid to tell it like it is.Please follow the Podcast and join our community at https://linktr.ee/borntowatchpodcasthttps://www.borntowatch.com.au/#BornToWatch #TheLastJedi #StarWarsDebate #WhiteyAndDamoUnfiltered #LegacyMatters #SubversionGoneWrong #LetThePastDie #BornToCritique #PodcastLife #SciFiFrustration
Star Wars Generations continues their deep dive into The Force Awakens, exploring the movie's characters, plot twists, and hidden Easter eggs. Hosts Matthew Fox, Erin McGowan, and Alex Korman continue their passionate discussion about the film that reignited the Star Wars franchise for a new generation.The hosts kick off by examining the complex character of Finn, the stormtrooper-turned-hero. They ponder: How does Finn's background shape his interactions with Rey and his journey throughout the film? The conversation then shifts to Rey, the mysterious scavenger with untapped Force potential. The hosts debate: Why was Rey chosen to seek out Luke Skywalker, and what does this mean for her character arc?A highlight of the episode is the hosts' analysis of Supreme Leader Snoke. They ask: Who is this enigmatic villain, and what role will he play in the trilogy? The discussion also touches on the often-overlooked Captain Phasma, with the hosts lamenting her limited screen time despite her intriguing design.Other topics covered include:BB-8's charm and how he compares to other iconic Star Wars droidsThe movie's use of humor and memorable one-linersEaster eggs and cameos, including Daniel Craig's secret appearanceThe impact of the film's cliffhanger endingHow The Force Awakens sets up plot threads for future moviesThe hosts wrap up by reflecting on the movie's balance of nostalgia and new elements, and how it succeeded in reinvigorating the Star Wars franchise.

In Star Wars The Last Jedi, Snoke poses a new threat to the galaxy. He is the successor (or is he?) to Palpatine/Sidious. That means he must be even more powerful than everyone we've come to know in Star Wars. In a recent interview with Andy Serkis who plays Supreme Leader Snoke, he had this to say about Snoke's powers in comparison to Darth Vader and Emperor Palpatine's. I was surprised to hear it, but it makes sense with the new era. Do you think Snoke is more powerful than Darth Vader and Palpatine? Will Kylo Ren be stronger than Rey in Episode 8? Where does Luke Skywalker land in all of this? Is he going to surpass Palpatine at this point, or will be still be playing catchup? Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices

In Star Wars The Last Jedi Trailer we saw a shot of Kylo Ren's new lightsaber in the throne room of Supreme Leader Snoke. The lightsaber has caused many to wonder and question as to why it looks so different than in Star Wars The Force Awakens. The answer is quite simple and it's from the extended edition of episode 7 where Rey vs Kylo Ren in a fight. I hope we see more of Kylo constructing his saber in The Last Jedi, along with him fighting Luke Skywalker. I wonder if we'll finally see Darth Vader's kyber crystal pendant from Luke's necklace to be used in a hilt...only time will tell... Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
In Star Wars The Last Jedi we've gotten lots of worry about Luke Skywalker being weak, and, well....lame... Well, we now have a quote by the director Rian Johnson in an interview that describes briefly what Luke will be like in this film in terms of his mental clarity...however...does this mean he's just being careful with his words? Will we see a full power Luke Skywalker against Kylo Ren and the Knights of Ren? What about Snoke? Is he not as powerful as the new possible ruler of the galaxy? I really want to see Luke swing his green lightsaber around with speed, killing the enemy with the same violence Darth Vader did in Rogue One a Star Wars Story. What do you think? Are you looking forward to seeing Luke's new power(s) in Star Was The Last Jedi? Or are you more into seeing Kylo's new abilities and his trials commanded by The Supreme Leader Snoke?

Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular was a nighttime show at Walt Disney World's Hollywood Studios that debuted in 2016. Based on the Star Wars franchise, the spectacular featured fireworks, projection mapping, fire, lasers, fog effects, searchlights, and more. The Hollywood Studios Chinese theater is the background for the projections along with some surrounding buildings. As the show evolved and the Star Wars franchise grew, the show was quietly updated with scenes from Rogue One, the Last Jedi, Solo, and The Rise of Skywalker. The show begins with a brief narrated prologue of the 1977 premiere of Star Wars at Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood, California. The main show is divided into segments dedicated to battles, heroes, creatures, romance, and villains. The dramatic opening shot from A New Hope begins the sequence showing various battle scenes from Takodana, Hoth, Jakku, the Death Star, and Starkiller Base. The next segment, dedicated to the series' heroes, features Rey, Luke Skywalker, Han Solo, and the Millennium Falcon escape scenes. Three brief segments follow; a cantina segment dedicated to the creatures and aliens, a segment devoted to the Force with Yoda and Obi-Wan Kenobi, and a romance segment with Han Solo, Leia Organa, Anakin Skywalker, and Padmé Amidala. A darker sequence follows, recreating the fiery lightsaber battle between Anakin and Kenobi on Mustafar. The scene segues into a segment dedicated to the series's villains, including Darth Vader, Darth Maul, Palpatine, Supreme Leader Snoke, and Kylo Ren. The trench run attacks on the Death Star and Starkiller Base, Paying off as the finale sequence. The show concludes with a montage of all nine original Star Wars film poster art collaged across the Chinese Theater. This version of Star Wars: A Galactic Spectacular is from 2017.
