It's the end of an era. And so many lives.This week, we trace the ways that Andor knits itself together into the wider tapestry of Star Wars, specifically by tying itself to Rogue One. We question whether the Rebels' sacrifices are cheapened by Luke Skywalker's heroism in Episode IV, define heroism through two key characters—Bix and Nemik—and investigate the reasons why Rebel High Command…is like that.We also name our favorite aspects of Andor, and crown it the ultimate Star Wars show.New to Growing Up Skywalker? Come join us for non-toxic Star Wars recaps from a veteran and a new fan. New episodes every Tuesday.Want more Growing Up Skywalker?

Howdy, spacefarers — and thank you for tuning in to another episode of the Re-Watch Podcast! Today's show is extra special because I'm joined by my friend Joe, an avid comic book reader, collector, and all-around pop culture expert.I first noticed Joe's impressive Marvel collection at the office — featuring Spider-Man, Doctor Strange, and Doctor Doom. He's also a seasoned convention-goer with autographs from the legendary actors behind Darth Vader, Boba Fett, and R2-D2.There's plenty of crossover in our fandoms, and today, I introduced Joe to Andor — what many fans consider the best Star Wars series Disney has produced. While Andor Season 2 has just debuted, we kicked things off with the very first episode of Season 1.Like me, Joe ranks Rogue One as one of the finest Star Wars films ever made. I've long argued that while Solo was the Star Wars movie no one asked for, Andor is the show we didn't know we desperately needed. Season 1 shattered expectations — and we're all eager to see how Season 2 measures up.Tune in as Joe shares his Star Wars knowledge, comic book adventures, and convention stories — and I make the case for why Andor deserves his full attention.

Daniel and Erwin review the latest installment in the Jurassic Franchise, "Jurassic World Rebirth" directed by Gareth Edwards. Did they love it, did they hate it, or are they Somewhere Between? Listen to find out!

I mai dykket vårt Seriefrelst-panel ned i de første seks episodene av den etterlengtede andresesongen av Star Wars-serien Andor (Disney+). Nå returnerer vi og fullfører diskusjonen om sesong 2 av Andor, og de avsluttende episodene. Vi har tidligere også diskutert oss gjennom sesong 1 av Andor (i episode #525 og #534), og den gang var vi begeistret for serieskaper Tony Gilroys realistiske og håndfaste tilnærming til det velkjente Star Wars-universet. I sesong 2 viderefører Gilroy det mørke og karakterdrevne fokuset i Andor, og avslutter serien med bravur i de seks siste episodene. Episoden inneholder spoilere for avgjørende øyeblikk i sesong 2 av Andor, og vi oppsummerer historielinjene til en rekke av seriens rollefigurer – samtidig som vi prater om hvordan Gilroy & Co lykkes med å veve hele narrativet sammen og peke direkte inn i plottet fra Rogue One. Ved mikrofonene sitter Karsten Meinich, Eric Vogel og Martin Sivertsen. God lytting! (Og god sommer!)

We always claim to talk about "other nerd related media", but lately haven't done much of that. Now, with our barrage of ANDOR interviews in the rear-view mirror, we finally take some time to talk about another franchise: Jurassic Park!This dino-franchise resurrects as much as the titular dinosaurs, and this summer brings us the latest installment: Jurassic World Rebirth. Today, Chase and Gus take the time to review the latest dinosaur-film and see if having the Star Wars talents of Gareth Edwards (director of Rogue One) and Rupert Friend (the Grand Inquisitor in Obi-Wan Kenobi) can make this film soar higher than a Pterodactylus or crash harder than the last couple of Jurassic World films. In our volatile social and political climate, does this film nail the anti-capitalist/corporate messaging or does it shy away from it?Join us as we have as much fun as a T-Rex swimming while we discuss all these transgenic dinosaurs!• • •Triad of the Force is a channel which was featured on the Podcast Stage at Star Wars Celebration 2022 and 2023, featuring Nani and Gus, lifelong Puerto Rican friends who after years of discussing the media they love, came together and created their show.

Now that we have the added context of having seen and reviewed Andor, we're rereleasing our original 2022 review of Rogue One: A Star Wars Story!

The rare prolific voice actor whose face is also extremely recognizable, Alan Tudyk is one of those guys who's a household name if your household is awesome. He's been in everything from ROGUE ONE and FIREFLY to A KNIGHT'S TALE and TUCKER AND DALE VS EVIL. But he's really gotten his chance to shine in the series RESIDENT ALIEN (now in its fourth season!) in which he stars as Harry, an alien who takes on a human form. Alan and Jordan bond over robots, bygone comedy eras, and of course, the nearly-inimitable Gene Wilder as Dr. Frankenstein in the Mel Brooks classic YOUNG FRANKENSTEIN.Then Jordan has one quick thing about the new John Cena/Idris Elba action flick HEADS OF STATE.***With Jordan Crucchiola and Alan Tudyk Feeling Seen is hosted by Jordan Crucchiola and is a production Maximum Fun.Need more Feeling Seen?

Send us a textThe rebellion's darkest hour becomes Star Wars' finest achievement in Andor Season 2's concluding episodes. We dive deep into how Tony Gilroy crafted a masterclass in tension, political intrigue, and character development that forever changes our understanding of the Star Wars universe.The Gorman massacre stands as perhaps the most haunting sequence ever created in Star Wars - a perfectly constructed trap that shows the Empire's ruthless calculus and leaves us questioning how we'd respond in similar circumstances. This leads to fascinating discussions about Syril Karn's moral journey: is his horror at witnessing genocide enough to redeem his previous actions, or does his confrontation with Dedra only further complicate his character?Mon Mothma emerges as the unexpected MVP of these episodes, delivering a Senate speech that rivals anything in the franchise for political tension. The procedural details - senators yielding their time, parliamentary maneuvers - create an authenticity rarely seen in science fiction. This groundwork makes her eventual leadership of the Rebellion all the more earned and meaningful.The Force makes its first significant appearance through the mysterious healer who identifies Cassian as a "messenger" - a subtle but powerful reminder that even in this grounded take on Star Wars, cosmic forces still guide the galaxy's fate. Meanwhile, Luthen's capture and Kleya's difficult decision to ensure he doesn't fall into Imperial hands delivers emotional devastation without feeling manipulative.Perhaps most satisfying is how perfectly these episodes connect to Rogue One, answering questions we didn't even know we had. From Cassian's pre-existing knowledge of Galen Erso to his partnership with the newly-reprogrammed K-2SO, every element enriches our understanding of his journey toward Scarif. The show demonstrates how prequels should function - not just filling gaps, but transforming our perspective on what comes after.Why does this series resonate so deeply? Because it never forgets that resistance requires sacrifice, that freedom fighters aren't always heroic, and that hope often comes at terrible cost. Andor depicts the messy, complicated birth of a rebellion with unflinching honesty - proving that Star Wars can deliver sophisticated adult storytelling without sacrificing what made us fall in love with this galaxy far, far away.Twitter handles:Project Geekology: https://twitter.com/pgeekologyAnthony's Twitter: https://twitter.com/odysseyswowDakota's Twitter: https://twitter.com/geekritique_dakInstagram:https://instagram.com/projectgeekology?igshid=1v0sits7ipq9yYouTube:https://www.youtube.com/@projectgeekologyGeekritique (Dakota):https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCBwciIqOoHwIx_uXtYTSEbASupport the show

This month's episode of Matinee Heroes is a special presentation years in the making. We're not honoring heroes this time—we're saluting the cinematic chaos agents, the scene-stealing thorns in every protagonist's side. That's right: it's the long-awaited William Atherton Asshole Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony. Co-host Craig Price is joined by Elizabeth Rapp and Derek McCaw for a red-carpet roast of honor as they induct the inaugural trio of actors: William Atherton – the original smarmy authority from Ghostbusters and Die Hard Ben Mendelsohn – the slick bureaucrat from Rogue One and Ready Player One Clancy Brown – towering menace from Highlander and Shawshank Redemption             Stream the full ceremony to celebrate the legends who made movie heroes suffer—and audiences cheer.

Min 5: JURASSIC WORLD: RENACER La saga de los dinosaurios más famosa del cine vuelve a la gran pantalla con Jurassic World: Renacer, un nuevo comienzo que intenta recuperar la esencia de la historia original que cautivó al mundo en los años 90. En esta ocasión, la trama se sitúa en un futuro en el que los dinosaurios conviven con los seres humanos, pero una nueva amenaza científica pone en peligro el frágil equilibrio alcanzado. Dirigida por Gareth Edwards, conocido por películas como Rogue One o Godzilla, esta entrega apuesta por un tono más serio y reflexivo, alejándose de la acción desbordante de las últimas entregas para centrarse en la supervivencia, el suspense y los dilemas morales. El reparto está encabezado por Scarlett Johansson y Jonathan Bailey, en una historia que combina aventura y emoción con una advertencia sobre los riesgos de jugar con la naturaleza. NOTA EDC: 2'5 estrellas Min 21: UNA CENA... Y LO QUE SURJA La comedia francesa "Una cena… y lo que surja", que acaba de llegar a los cines españoles este fin de semana, recupera con un aire elegante y desenfadado el espíritu de la película española Sentimental, de Cesc Gay. Dirigida por Laurent Lafitte, esta nueva versión nos sumerge en una velada aparentemente inofensiva entre dos parejas que, a medida que avanza la noche, se convierte en un juego de confesiones, tensiones y deseos reprimidos que pondrán a prueba la solidez de sus relaciones. NOTA EDC: 3 estrellas Min 26: DIAMANTI "Diamanti" es una refinada dramedia dirigida por Ferzan Ozpetek que rinde homenaje al universo femenino y al cine que palpita tras bambalinas. La película comienza en la actualidad con un grupo de actrices, algunas habituales en la filmografía del director, convocadas para leer un guión. Esa lectura conduce al espectador directamente a la Roma de los años setenta, donde la trama principal se desarrolla en un taller de costura cinematográfica regentado por las hermanas Alberta (Luisa Ranieri) y Gabriella (Jasmine Trinca). Junto a ellas, un elenco coral de mujeres —modistas, bordadoras, aprendices— trabaja con pasión en la confección de vestuarios para una producción de época. Entre máquinas de coser, retazos de tela y maniquíes, se entrelazan historias de rivalidad, lealtad, pérdidas personales y anhelos reprimidos que reflejan, con delicadeza y fuerza, la complejidad de sus vidas. NOTA EDC: 3,5 estrellas Min 31: MIRAMOS AL FUTURO: "SUPERMAN" 2025 Y "LOS CUATRO FANTÁSTICOS: PRIMEROS PASOS" Aunque "Estamos de Cine" se toma un respiro veraniego, este mes hay dos grandes apuestas en pantalla grande que no queremos dejar de ponderar: el nuevo Superman de James Gunn y Los Cuatro Fantásticos: Primeros Pasos. El cineasta James Gunn presenta a un Superman revitalizado, más luminoso y generoso, alejado del tono sombrío de entregas anteriores y pensado como la pieza central del reinicio del Universo DC. Con David Corenswet en el papel de un Clark Kent joven y bondadoso, la película se inspira en cómics como All-Star Superman para recuperar la simbólica “gentileza†que define al personaje. Por otra parte, Los Cuatro Fantásticos: Primeros Pasos llega como la gran expectativa de Marvel para este julio. Se estrena en España el 25 de julio, está dirigida por Matt Shakman y apuesta por una ambientación retrofuturista de los 60 y por un tono que mezcla aventura cósmica con drama familiar. Min 38: LA PELÍCULA DE TU VIDA, CON RAQUEL HERNÁNDEZ Y después de conocer el placer culpable de Alberto Luchini, con la elección de "Grease" como la película de su vida, llega el turno de la cómplice necesaria de nuestro Filtro semanal. Una de las sorpresas mejor guardadas de la temporada tiene que ver con la película de la vida de nuestra Raquel Hernández. ¿Apostará por su género predilecto o nos sorprenderá por la vía de la ciencia ficción? Min 40: ESPECIAL BSO: ZIMMER VUELA EN "F1: THE MOVIE" La música de “F1: La película†, compuesta por Hans Zimmer junto a Steve Mazzaro, busca capturar la dualidad del deporte: la tensión humana y la imponente maquinaria que lo impulsa. Zimmer define su aproximación como un híbrido entre orquesta y electrónica, en el que la orquesta representa al piloto y los sonidos electrónicos evocan el rugido y la precisión del monoplaza. Un regalo musical que queremos paladear con Ángel Luque para poner el colofón a una temporada para el recuerdo y los 20.000 oyentes semanales que nos otorga el EGM. Gracias por vuestra fidelidad y nos reencontramos en la nueva temporada.

Welcome to the final episode of series 84, everyone! In this series, we are covering two amazing games in one! Galactic, a Star Wars inspired, Belonging Outside Belonging, GMless TTRPG about relationships, rebellion and war among the stars by Riley Rethal.

In this Junk Filter sequel to our discussion of season 1 of Tony Gilroy's Star Wars: Andor streaming series, the writers Roxana Hadadi and Corey Atad return to assess the second and final season, which compresses the four years leading up to the start of Rogue One into four sets of three-episode arcs.On this episode we discuss the program's political content and Gilroy's refusal to play Culture War games during the promotion of the series. We cover the controversial first arc of the series which parallels the plans of the Empire with the Final Solution of the Nazi era, as they flood the galaxy with propaganda to demonize a planet they plan to colonize, and how a fascist regime uses sexual violence and unwitting dupes who think they're serving a greater good through their collaboration. And we talk about the upsetting eighth episode of season 2 which depicts a massacre on the “French Planet” of Ghorman, clearly modelled on Nazi-occupied France in World War II, which of course has parallels both to Gaza and the Trump Era.Plus: the fates of the show's ‘Power Couple' Dedra and Syril, the barnburning Saw Gerrara monologue, and Tony Gilroy's illuminating interview with Ross Douthat, who is determined in their discussion to tag Andor (and Michael Clayton) as ‘left wing art' and fails miserably.Over 30% of all Junk Filter episodes are only available to patrons of the podcast.

Our long await, much anticipated Rogue One: A Star Wars Story discussion episode!! One of collectively our favorite Star Wars Universe movies! You can get that idea pretty clear from this episode too! Hope you enjoy! We also dropped a little outtakes clip in the beginning!

Free cross-over episode with the Bang-Bang Podcast. In this finale to our Andor series, Van and Lyle are joined by returning guest Paul Adlerstein and—making his first appearance on the pod—Matt Duss, former foreign policy advisor to Senator Bernie Sanders and current executive vice president at the Center for International Policy.The conversation spans the closing arc of Andor Season 2 and Rogue One, treating them as one long meditation on revolutionary grief, sacrifice, and strategy. We reflect on Kleya Marki's backstory, Deedra Meero's karmic consignment to the labor camps, and the quiet closure of Bix Caleen's journey from warrior to survivor, cradling new life in a liberated field.We also discuss Cassian's confrontation with the rebel leadership and his scathing defense of Luthen Rael. Namely, his accusation that those who sit in safety have committed only a fraction of the sacrifice they demand of others. As well as Bail Organa's (wink wink, nod nod) “May the Force be with you, captain,” sealing the fate of Cassian's transition from hunted thief to selfless insurgent.In our Rogue One discussion, we note the apocalyptic awe of Krennic's “Oh, it's beautiful” as he watches Jedha obliterated, a moment that recalls the real-world language of U.S. reporters and officials after Hiroshima.Check out the Bang-Bang Podcast and subscribe: https://www.bangbangpod.com/

【聊了什么The What】 在一个充满官僚主义的银河帝国中，革命究竟意味着什么？当理想主义者遭遇现实的残酷，"正义"与"邪恶"的界限是否真的那么清晰？从Luthen的革命理念到Dedra的极权思维，剧集以令人不安的方式探讨了权力、反抗与人性的本质。 革命的本质是什么？它需要什么样的代价和牺牲？从卢森的马基雅维利式的组织者形象，到帝国完美官僚的非人性，再到太空法国的群众运动，《安多》探讨了反抗与压迫、个人与集体、理想与现实之间的复杂关系。 Andor Season 2 is a unique work in the Star Wars universe that features no lightsabers, Force powers, or chosen ones, instead focusing on marginalized characters and the imperial bureaucracy. The series tells the story of how the Empire was overthrown, showcasing the desperation of ordinary people, cracks within the Empire, and the real cost of rebellion. As "a prequel to a prequel" of the original Star Wars trilogy, Andor Season 2 ends by seamlessly transitioning into the film Rogue One, revealing these characters' ultimate fates. The show explores several thought-provoking themes: Is the nature of revolution romantic idealism or bloody reality? How does the Empire's propaganda machine justify colonization and genocide through stereotypes and inciting hatred? How do characters like Luther and Dedra represent different facets of revolution and oppression? Perhaps most importantly, in an age of rampant social media where everyone claims to possess "the truth," how can we discern the reality of history? 【时间轴 The When】 00:00:00 作为精神股东，终于看上了安多 00:01:40 安多作为星战宇宙中的奇特存在，没有光剑和原力，聚焦底层人物 00:06:52 太空法国：探讨帝国如何通过宣传和刻板印象为毁灭Gorman星球正名 00:11:15 Gorman事件：以及社交媒体时代的"真相"困境 00:26:01 Luthen，以及革命者如何成为他所憎恨的对象的映照 00:36:18 帝国官僚Dedra 00:47:32 安多：一个被写不进正史的英雄 00:52:37 必须得给安多留个孩子吗？？ 00:00:00 Introduction to Andor Season 2, explaining its unique place in the Star Wars universe 00:01:40 Star Wars with no lightsabers or Force 00:06:52 "Space France" - how the director transforms a historical footnote into the emotional core of the series 00:18:51 Reflecting on parallels between the Gorman massacre and real-world events, and the dilemma of "truth" in the social media era 00:26:01 Luthen: how a revolutionary becomes a reflection of what he hates 00:36:18 Dedra character analysis: Empire turns people into tools 00:47:32 Andor: a hero who won't make it into official history 00:52:37 Discussion of the series ending: does Andor need a kid? 【疲惫红书 CyberRed】 除了播客以外，疲惫娇娃的几个女的在小红书上开了官方账号，我们会不定期发布【疲惫在读】、【疲惫在看】、【疲惫旅行】、【疲惫Vlog】等等更加轻盈、好玩、实验性质的内容。如果你想知道除了播客以外我们在关注什么，快来小红书评论区和我们互动。 Apart from the podcast, we have set up an official account on Xiaohongshu.

In episode 17 of (Pop) Cultural Marxism, Ajay and Isi once again find themselves in the regrettable position of praising the Walt Disney Company. After chatting about recent cultural highlights (Clair Obscur: Expedition 33, a 40th anniversary screening of Kurosawa's Ran, and a Criterion retrospective on Johnnie To), they consider the popular and critical success of Andor's second season, and ask what it means to describe a pop cultural text as “politically timely.” Their conversation turns to extratextual ecosystems (press junkets, interviews), Gilroy's deep engagement with cinematic depictions of fascism and rebellion (Army of Shadows, The Conformist), architecture and costume design, season 2 high points (the Ghorman Massacre, Mon Mothma's Senate speech), the politics of revolutionary alliances, and imperial bureaucracy. Finally, they consider how the show makes the transition—narratively, visually, musically—into the lore-dense timeline of Rogue One and A New Hope, and ponder its uncharacteristically fascistic final scene.

Andor Season 2 cements its legacy as the most critically acclaimed Star Wars series to date, delivering a gripping and emotionally charged conclusion to Cassian Andor's journey. In this episode, Giant Mess podcast host Neal Lynch breaks down why the show's mature storytelling, exceptional performances, and sharp writing set a new standard for the franchise.Neal dives into how Season 2 ambitiously spans four years across twelve episodes, seamlessly bridging the gap between Season 1 and Rogue One. He also explores the show's improved pacing, deep character arcs—especially for Cassian, Mon Mothma, Bix, and Dedra—and the way it tackles themes of love, loss, sacrifice, and resistance with genuine gravitas.TV Show Reactions from Giant Mess Podcast - https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLNNWtgwQsK8-iLVzE7p4cPf_K1KziiiSY Highlights include:The season's tight, purposeful structure and standout episodesHow the series avoids nostalgia traps, focusing instead on the real cost of rebellionThe seamless, essential connection to Rogue One and what it means for the larger sagaWhy critics and fans alike call this the best Star Wars since The Empire Strikes BackThis is an in-depth, spoiler-filled discussion of the show's triumphs, minor missteps, and lasting impact.

Send us a textAndor discussion starts at 21:49 minutesThe rebellion that will ultimately bring down the Empire doesn't begin with lightsabers or space battles – it starts with ordinary people pushed beyond their breaking point. Andor Season 2's first six episodes masterfully explore this transformation through multiple storylines that reveal the true cost of resistance.Following Cassian, Bix, and their companions as they hide on an agricultural world, we witness how the trauma of Imperial oppression shapes their decisions and drives them deeper into rebellion. Meanwhile, Mon Mothma navigates the treacherous waters of Imperial politics on Coruscant while trying to protect both her family and the secret resistance she funds. When these disparate storylines converge at a wedding sequence scored to hauntingly beautiful music, the result is some of the most sophisticated storytelling ever seen in Star Wars.The series doesn't shy away from showing the Empire's true nature. From propaganda campaigns that villainize entire planets to casual discussions about ecological destruction for resource extraction, we see how Imperial authoritarianism operates at every level. Orson Krennic's return adds crucial context to the machinations behind the Death Star project, while the addition of the planet Gorman – with its distinct culture and ecosystem built around unique spiders – demonstrates how thoroughly the creators have considered this world.What makes Andor exceptional is how it grounds these galaxy-spanning conflicts in deeply human stories. Bix's struggle with PTSD after Imperial torture, Saw Gerrera's dangerous Rhydonium addiction, and Cyril's misplaced faith in Imperial ideals all reveal different facets of life under tyranny. By examining the psychological cost of both oppression and resistance, Andor achieves a depth rarely seen in science fiction television.As the groundwork is laid for the unified Rebellion we'll eventually see in Rogue One, these episodes remind us that revolutions aren't built on spectacular moments, but on countless small acts of courage by people who simply refuse to accept injustice any longer.

Both were incredible conversations discussing the world of ANDOR. Alan's interview starts at 31:45 and Margit's interview starts at 6:40. We talked: Constructing the vocals and layering a world like Ghorman with Margit. Building the tension of Mon's speech through sound design. The differences between working on Andor and Rogue One — and what Alan would have changed (and what he wouldn't!). How Alan came to join team Rogue One and accept the role of K-2SO.  … and so much more. Thank you so much to Lucasfilm for the opportunity!

It's a mixed bag of summer movies with a special guest stopping by on the latest episode of Breakfast All Day. We begin with a review of "Materialists," Celine Song's follow-up to her Oscar-nominated 2023 drama "Past Lives." Dakota Johnson plays a New York City matchmaker who must choose between Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal. It's the eternal conundrum. In theaters. Then our good friend William Bibbiani drops in to help out with a review of "How to Train Your Dragon." If you've seen the beloved animated original, you've seen this live-action remake. Mason Thames, Nico Parker and Gerard Butler co-star. In theaters now. And we wrap up with a re-watch of "Rogue One," the 2016 "Star Wars" movie about the mission to steal the Death Star plans. Now that the phenomenal prequel series "Andor" has finished, we wanted to see how this film plays with fresh perspective. Have you seen "Rogue One" lately? Let us know your thoughts. No news this week, but we hope to catch up with you next Friday. Have a great weekend, and if you're going to a No Kings protest on Saturday, stay safe!
