Trying something a little different this week, with the first half of the LEGO Star Wars mini-series: Rebuild the Galaxy! We were both somewhat surprised by how honestly good this show ended up being, so let's jump in!

We wrap up Season 2 of our Chronological Clone Wars watch through with the finale of the Boba Fett arc, with a fun take on a Lassi episode to start and then we're joined once again by everyone's favorite pirate Hondo to close it out. Let's jump in!

Let's chat about or time at Space Con San Antonio, and break down the first episode of the Season 2 finale arc, with an introduction to a new version of Boba Fett that we haven't gotten to spend much time with yet. Let's jump in!

We have finally arrived at one of the strongest arcs in all of the Clone Wars early seasons, with a new introduction to Mandalore and its culture that will have long lasting impacts on new Star Wars canon. Unlike the previous episode, almost every character or setting introduced here matters, and we have a blast learning about them all. Let's jump in!

We return with a true standalone episode which we were surprised to learn came directly from a George Lucas pitch. Not our favorite, but a fun little reference to Stray Dogs, a 1949 Kurosawa film about a police officer who loses his revolver. Let's jump in!

We continue our watch-through with a very typical Clone Wars episode with some fun lightsaber fights and exciting battles, followed by half of an episode which discusses the moral quandary with using Clones, with the other half being a continuation of the less than exciting chase for Grievous. We end up wishing that the focus had been entirely on the Clones, and the question of whether they are allowed to have free-will, but it does lay some interesting groundwork for later seasons of Clone Wars and The Bad Batch. Let's jump in!

We finally end our five episode "Second Battle of Geonosis" arc with a two-part horror story line, which we find to be one of the most unique stories told in all of Clone Wars. Somehow managing to delightfully toe the line between scary and fun, it leaves both of us wishing we had more horror themes in Star Wars content. Let's jump in!

We continue on, a week delayed, with the middle part of our 5-part Geonosis arc. Standing strong on their own, Landing at Point Rain channels the best parts of Band of Brothers or Saving Private Ryan without becoming too adult, and Weapons Factory takes a hard look at the master-padawan relationship between Ahsoka and Anakin, in a way that is strongly reminiscent of some scenes we have seen recently in Ahsoka's own show. Let's jump in!

A surprisingly decent episode that feels like the first real attempt at fleshing out Anakin and Padme's relationship in the Clone Wars, and also serves as a bridge to the Geonosis arc. We were surprised to learn that this episode was actually referencing a Hitchcock movie, Notorious, from 1946, which helps to explain why the story ends so strongly. Let's jump in!

The chronological watch through provides us with a big bonus early in the second season, with a Seven Samurai tribute episode immediately followed by a Godzilla/King Kong arc with the Zillo Beast episodes. These episodes are some of our early favorites, and we have a blast revisiting them. Let's jump in!

After an extended break for Bad Batch and The Acolyte we finally return to our chronological watch through of the Clone Wars series. Season 2 starts off with a bang with the introduction of one of our favorite characters, Cad Bane, and the arc is an overall big step up from Season 1's limited production capabilities. Let's jump in!

Disney's annual D23 celebration has wrapped up, and we have a handful of "first looks" at the next four upcoming Star Wars projects. Skeleton Crew and Lego's Rebuild the Galaxy got full trailers, and we got to see sneak peeks of Andor S2 and the Mandalorian movie too! Unfortunately no new projects were announced, but let's jump in and talk about what we learned!

On the heels of the conclusion of The Acolyte and just before Disney's slate of D23 news, we thought we'd take a minute to get everyone up to speed on where all of the upcoming Star Wars TV and film projects are at. We discuss everything we know so far about Skeleton Crew and chat about what we know we have to look forward to over the next couple years. Once D23 happens, we'll revisit this info to see what has changed, and we'll cover all the new info too! Let's jump in!

Now that all eight episodes have been released, we want to take some time to go over what The Acolyte did well, what we enjoyed, and what we thought could have been improved. Let's jump in!

We've finally reached the Season 1 finale, and somehow they managed to pull it off, wrapping up the story and doing it with not a single wasted minute! Episode 8 is a fantastic conclusion to the first season, and they left just enough interesting storylines left open to make us hungry for a second. Let's jump in!

Maybe one of our longest individual episodes yet, "Choice" has a ton to talk about and really sparks a lot of good conversation around the best way to consume the flashbacks in service to the story. It also successfully pulls off what is very difficult to do in Star Wars, which is painting characters in shades of grey. Let's jump in!

We're back with episode 6 which is, in our opinion, one of the best "middle of an arc" episodes we've gotten in a Star Wars show to this point. Well written, with good character development, the only flaw is that it seemingly asks more questions than it gives answers, which we find to be a very risky proposition this late in the season. Let's jump in!

And what a stunning follow-up this episode ended up being! Maybe one of the most jaw-dropping fight scenes we have ever seen in live action Star Wars, and an incredible performance from [spoiler] in their newly revealed role. After this episode, we cannot wait to see where the story goes next! Let's jump in!

A return to form for The Acolyte, our only criticism of Episode 4 is that we wish there was a little bit more of it. However, the closing minutes of the episode are some of the best Star Wars we've gotten yet, and we're excited to talk about where it leads! Let's jump in!

For the first time, we feel like The Acolyte stumbles a bit. Not because of any canon-breaking issues, which in reality are non-issues blown massively out of proportion, but because of an odd tonal shift with an incomplete feeling episode that doesn't add enough to the current mysteries to be worth the full diversion from the core story line. Let's jump in!
