Major Shakeup at Lucasfilm and SoR's Future Plans

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Sat, 15 Feb 2025 09:00:00 +0100

Hey, Star Wars fans, this is episode 241.

It's a slightly different episode this week and one of two halves. First, we have an in-depth chat about the recent changes at Lucasfilm and the announcement of Darek Hoffman as the new VP of Development. It's a change that we feel is needed so we give you our thoughts on what this means for right now and for the future of Star Wars movies and TV.

Secondly, we're announcing a change to the format of Spark of Rebellion. You may have noticed of late, as we certainly have, that news and general buzz around Star Wars has waned over the last 6 months to a year. Aside from the usual build-up to Disney+ releases, it's an announcement which goes nowhere - rinse and repeat. So... after next week, we're moving to a seasonal format instead of weekly episodic.

Episode 242 will be our last weekly release and after that, we will return in May to talk about the (hopefully) interesting announcements from Star Wars Celebration and then for our first season to review Andor Season 2 plus some cool interviews which we're sure you'll love. Moving to this format allows us to maintain enthusiasm about Star Wars and plan some very cool content.

With all that being said, enjoy episode 241 and let us know your thoughts on this new change at Lucasfilm.

The Acolyte Actually Performed..... OK?

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Thu, 06 Feb 2025 09:00:00 +0100

Welcome to episode 240. Our headline story is about The Acolyte, which, as we know, was supposed to be a fresh insight into the Sith but got unceremoniously axed. Now, Disney is trying to spin it as a success because it racked up some viewing minutes. Sure, let's ignore the fact that the show was generally panned. Classic Disney.

We also touch on the ongoing saga of upcoming Star Wars movies, where writers come and go faster than Jedi at a lightsaber duel, The High Republic wraps up, lots of new Star Wars merch... Plus, there's a shiny new Death Star LEGO set on the horizon priced for the truly devoted. So, grab your popcorn—oh wait, you can't afford it after that LEGO purchase—and settle in for some sarcastic insights and absurdity from around the galaxy.

Why Skeleton Crew is the Fresh Take Star Wars Needed

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Sat, 18 Jan 2025 09:00:00 +0100

Hello there! We're back after our end of 2024 hiatus, we hope you all had a great Christmas and New Year and that you're raring to go, with us, to dive into some great new Star Wars this year.

In this week's episode, it's all about Skeleton Crew, highlighting its unique approach to storytelling and character development. We discuss how the show successfully avoids the typical reliance on established Star Wars characters, instead focusing on a fresh narrative centred around a group of kids on a mysterious planet.

We reflect on the blend of familiar themes reminiscent of classic films like The Goonies and Stand By Me while praising the performances of the child actors, particularly Wim and Fearne, who experience significant character growth throughout the series.

Also, we wax on the creative choices made in design and storytelling, emphasizing how the series manages to feel distinctly Star Wars without adhering to the usual tropes.

With an overall rating of eight out of ten, we certainly thought it was a solid series. Enough to get a season 2 in the future? Who knows. For now, sit back, grab some blue milk and join us for our review of Skeleton Crew.

Rey Skywalker: The Future of Star Wars?

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Thu, 21 Nov 2024 09:00:00 +0100

Welcome, SoR listener to episode 238 and our final episode of this year!

We're taking the remainder of the year off and will be back on January 15th for our full review of Skeleton Crew. The reason for the short hiatus? Basically, Star Wars news has been extremely slow for the last few months. Of the stories we are talking about recently, it's just the same stuff or it's fan nonsense. The last thing we want to do is come back every week and not sound like our enthusiastic selves about something we love. So you get a rest for a little while!

For this episode we've got Star Wars movie calendar updates, Black Friday toy and collectibles, new Darth Vader themed clothing from Columbia and some fun tidbits from the rumour mill. Enjoy!

Here we go again... a new Star Wars trilogy in the works!

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Fri, 08 Nov 2024 09:00:00 +0100

Hello there, Star Wars fans and welcome to episode 237.

Our headline story this week feels like a twisted, nightmarish trip down memory lane that we've gone down many times before. Once again, Lucasfilm has a new trilogy of Star Wars films in the works with X-Men alum Simon Kinberg at the helm. With so many writers and directors coming on then leaving over the years you can forgive the cynical tone here.

Elsewhere in the galaxy, Skeleton Crew dropped it's latest trailer with a unique vibe, an update on every SW game in development and finally, Star Wars gets its first transgender Stormtrooper - Sister.

Good News and Bad News for Upcoming Star Wars Movies

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Fri, 25 Oct 2024 09:00:00 +0100

Hello there! Garry is flying solo this week to bring you up to speed on what's happening around the galaxy including...

The recent turmoil surrounding the upcoming Star Wars film, "New Jedi Order," which has lost its screenwriter, Stephen Knight, leading to further delays in production. Daisy Ridley's optimistic comments about the project now seem overshadowed by this setback, raising questions about the film's future.

On a more positive note, James Mangold's "Dawn of the Jedi" appears to be on track, with indications that filming could begin next year, exploring the origins of the Jedi in a captivating new storyline.

Additionally, intriguing hints from the upcoming "Skeleton Crew" series suggest connections to deeper Star Wars lore, particularly regarding the Sith's forerunners.

Live Action Clone Wars, Good Idea?

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Fri, 11 Oct 2024 09:00:00 +0100

Hell there, Star Wars fans! Welcome to episode 234.

We kick off with the future of the Obi-Wan Kenobi series, sparked by Ewan McGregor's recent remarks about potential storylines for a second season. The hosts reflect on the original series' reception, noting that while many fans appreciated McGregor’s return, others felt the series fell short of expectations. This dichotomy sets the stage for an exploration of how future content can better resonate with the audience while remaining faithful to the established lore. We also touch on the intricacies of storytelling, emphasising that any new series should not simply rehash past narratives but should instead build upon them, enriching the characters' journeys and deepening the emotional stakes.

Other news throughout the galaxy:

We pay tribute to the late Robert Watts, acknowledging his contributions to the original trilogy and the importance of recognising his behind-the-scenes talent that shaped the Star Wars legacy.
An upcoming documentary on John Williams has us excited, discussing how his musical genius has elevated the storytelling of Star Wars and other iconic films.
A couple of amazing props are going up for auction next week in London including a screen-matched Sandtrooper helmet from the icon "Move along" scene as well as Yoda's cane. Oof, if only we had a recent lottery win!
Fans have got their knickers in a twist as actor Will Poulter would throw his hat in for the live casting of Cal Kestis. Yep, fandom, lol.

Lastly, we tackle the tantalising idea of adapting the Clone Wars into a live-action format, a prospect that excites some fans while raising concerns for others. Could an adaptation live up to the beloved animated series while focusing on the darker, more brutal aspects of war that defined the Clone Wars? There's the potential for exploring character relationships, particularly the dynamics between Anakin, Obi-Wan, and Padmé, as well as the emotional fallout from the choices they make.

From Announcements to Delays: The Star Wars Saga Under Disney's Rule

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Thu, 03 Oct 2024 09:00:00 +0100

Hello there, Star Wars fans and welcome to episode 233.

The latest episode delves into the tumultuous history of Star Wars announcements since Disney's acquisition of Lucasfilm, highlighting how the frequent changes in release schedules have affected fans' expectations and enthusiasm. With a series of delayed releases and project cancellations, fans are left questioning the direction of the franchise and the reasoning behind these decisions, including production challenges and creative differences. The discussion also compares how other franchises, like Marvel, successfully manage their release timelines, contrasting it with Star Wars' current struggles.

As speculation arises about what fans can expect moving forward, the episode engages with listener reactions, capturing the mixed sentiments surrounding the shifting landscape of Star Wars media. Ultimately, this conversation aims to explore the future release strategies for Star Wars while addressing the impact of these developments on the devoted fanbase.

Through a lively and candid discussion, this episode tackles the complex realities of Star Wars' release strategies post-2012 acquisition by Disney. Garry and Mark provide a thorough retrospective on the numerous projects that have been announced, altered, or canceled, painting a picture of a franchise in turmoil. The conversation leads into a critical examination of how these shifts have impacted the trust and enthusiasm of the fan base, noting that many fans now approach announcements with trepidation, fearing further cancellations or lackluster products.

We highlight the need for a more coherent strategy moving forward. They speculate on the potential for revitalising the franchise through fresh storytelling and clearer communication with fans. Additionally, we address the reactions from the Star Wars community, acknowledging a spectrum of feelings from apathy to fervent criticism. The episode emphasises the importance of understanding fan sentiment and adapting to it, suggesting that moving forward, Lucasfilm should prioritise consistency in its messaging and commitment to delivering quality content.

This thoughtful discourse not only reflects on the past but also serves as a hopeful guide for the future of the Star Wars saga, encouraging fans to remain engaged and optimistic despite the rollercoaster ride of announcements and releases.

They emphasize the need for standalone stories without the pressure of connecting to existing lore.
A major point of discussion is the negative impact of toxic fandom on creators.
The hosts believe it's important to enjoy Star Wars content without overthinking connections to past narratives.

How Much has "The Acolyte" Cost Disney So Far?

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Sat, 29 Jul 2023 14:30:00 +0100

This week, we're joined by the wonderful Kevin Mullen who, in his own words...

I was 7 when I first saw Star Wars (when it wasn’t even Episode IV) and it changed my life. I’m a full geek and proud (because now it is acceptable to be a geek). Married to Claire who hates all things sci-fi, two cats, proudly northern but you’d never really guess I’m from Liverpool. Loves animated Star Wars, knitting and dismembering people (one of those three facts is a lie). I hate entitled Star Wars gatekeepers and bigots.

Ahsoka Merch at SDCC and John Boyega Back as Finn?

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Sat, 22 Jul 2023 09:00:00 +0100

With San Diego Comic-Con 2023 kicking off this week, we knew the Star Wars news would start to drop and this year, as we expected based on a certain Disney Plus show dropping next month, the Ahsoka merch is already doing the rounds. From LEGO to snazzy shirts there's a decent line-up. Make sure you tune in next week for our coverage of any big SW announcements that may drop over the weekend.

Also from around the galaxy: John Boyega confirms he's up for a possible return, a mind-meltingly impressive LEGO droid factory, an update on the almost forgotten Lando series and Temuera Morrison would love to bring Captain Rex to live action.

Is Dave Filoni Adapting Heir to the Empire?

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith - Nerd Podcasts Network — Sat, 20 May 2023 09:00:00 +0100

As if we weren't huge fans of Dave Filoni already! If the rumours are true about the title of his upcoming movie, we could be in for potentially one of the best Star Wars movies for years.

Elsewhere in the galaxy, is Mark Hamill set to return as Luke in the upcoming New Jedi Order movie, Kath wants to "eventise" Star Wars movies, Giancarlo Esposito shows fans a deleted ending to his character, Kath talks about projects still in the works, a couple of sweet figures from Hot Toys and Joel Edgerton, you know, Owen Lars, well it turns out he's rather appreciative of George Lucas casting him in Star Wars.

This week we have a very special guest!

David Jenkins - I've loved star wars my whole life. My dad was always into sci fi and watched all the OGs in the cinema back in the day. When he had three boys (I'm the youngest) we all watched all the movies together. Over the years I've watched all the SW content I can get my hands of and have been especially fond of the many excellent (although not so much recently) star wars video games. Outside of SW I'm generally into lots of sci fi and gaming still, but work in tech, I used to work with Gaz which is how I found out about SoR.

Andor Episodes 1-3 Review, a Refreshing Change to Your Dad's Star Wars

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith — Sat, 24 Sep 2022 09:00:00 +0100

"Andor" premiered this week and to say that it's a "different" style of Star Wars show would be, well... oversimplifying it...

This week saw the premiere of "Andor" on Disney+.

The highly anticipated prequel-to-a-prequel-after-the-prequel-era sees Diego Luna reprise his role as the titular rebel while bringing back Genevieve O'Reilly as Mon Mothma and introducing Stellan Skarsgård as a new, major character within The Rebel Alliance.

But, is "Andor" any good? Is it just like every other Star Wars series we have seen to date or does it try to break the mould?

Today, we dig into the first three episodes and find out.

Why Star Wars Will Never Be Finished with The Skywalker Saga

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith — Sat, 02 Apr 2022 09:00:00 +0100

Despite Disney's statement that it was "done with the Skywalker Saga", new content continues to appear and the Skywalker stable is arguably more popular than ever. Will Star Wars ever be truly finished with its OG, main family?

Things we spoke about today:

The news stories from around the galaxy that we discussed on this episode...

Shadow of the Sith on Amazon - The new book I talked about on this episode, well worth a look.
Sequel Pitch on Twitter - Highly recommended! A podcast that pitches sequels to movies without them and where Gaz and Mark will be guesting to pitch a Rise of Skywalker sequel in May 2022!

Ewan McGregor back as Obi-Wan! All the movies being re-released on blu ray, Rian Johnson not using any "legacy" characters and some sweet books out in Nov.

Garry Aylott & Mark Asquith, Rebel Base Media — Sat, 17 Aug 2019 12:00:00 +0100

Already own the Star Wars movies on multiple formats? Well get ready to double (or triple)-dip as all the moves (including Rogue One and Solo) will be getting a re-release later this year with new cover art.

Rian Johnson has been chatting some more regarding his trilogy of movies and has noted that they will not feature any "legacy" characters, insinuating that none of the characters from the Skywalker Saga will make an appearance, hmmm.

Big news - Ewan McGregor could be back as Obi-Wan as sources say he's in talks to star and/or even direct a new Obi-Wan TV show planned for the soon to be launched Disney+ streaming service. Fingers crossed for this one!

There's also a couple of awesome books on the horizon, due out in November that would make great Crimbo pressies for the Star Wars fan you struggle to buy for.
