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.

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.

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.

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.

Welcome to episode 230, Star Wars fans! There's very little news kicking about the galaxy this week so we thought it would be a good idea to give you our initial thoughts on the recently released Star Wars Outlaws game from Ubisoft and Massive Ebtertainment. As Mark hasn't picked this up yet, Garry is flying solo with his review after about 10 hours of play time. He'll give you his full review in a few weeks after completing it all.
So, grab your cute loveable sidekick, your blaster and brew as we dive into arguably the most important Star Wars game of recent years.

It's a chunky episode this week as we dive deep into the rationale behind the cancellation of The Acolyte and the weirdness of fandom that comes with Star Wars. We also chat on the Skeleton Crew trailer, a very rare Boba Fett toy that went for crazy money at auction plus a very scary if not cool bit of SW merch to hang on your wall. It's all here and more in episode 229 of SoR.
Takeaways:
The podcast discusses the cancellation of 'The Acolyte' season two, highlighting viewer engagement issues. Jude Law's character in 'Skeleton Crew' is theorized to be tied to Jorus C'baoth. The hosts express mixed feelings about the portrayal of Jedi in the Star Wars universe. 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.The news stories from around the galaxy that we discussed on this episode...

Welcome to episode 220, Star Wars fans! We're back after a couple of busy weeks but alas, there are no big announcements of late, but there are plenty of interesting tidbits to get stuck into. The highlight being George Lucas not feeling the current state of Star Wars movies and Ahmed Best wanting to make a badass "Jedi John Wick" film which, if done right, could be awesome. All this and more on this week's episode, enjoy!
