This week we finally catch up with Star Wars with the final 10 episodes of Resistance Season 2.

After a somewhat rocky first half of the season, the show finds its stride and delivers many of its best episodes yet in its final run.

This week we head back to The Colossus to talk about the 2nd season of Star Wars Resistance. A show that didn't make much of an impact, but is still a very enjoyable addition to a Galaxy Far, Far Away.

This week we take a quick Detour between Star Wars TV shows  to talk about Rian Johnson's fabulous 2019 mystery caper, Knives Out.

A perfect film brimming with creativity, wit and wonderful characters. Johnson has once again proven himself to be one of the most exciting filmmakers working today.

This week we explore the epic and long-awaited ending to one of the greatest pieces of Star Wars storytelling ever made.

We're doing something very different from usual this week. Here Gabe and James will each be taking a shot at "fixing" The Rise of Skywalker. We've spent the last couple weeks coming up with story treatments that we hope fix a lot of the issues in the film, as well as make it fit better alongside the previous two films in the Sequel Trilogy.

They're probably both terrible, but it was a lot of fun!

This week we finally dive into the monumental conclusion to the Sequel Trilogy and the Skywalker Saga. A massive, ambitious and baffling film that's equal parts disappointing and thrilling.

In one of our longest episodes on a single film, we explore this film from every angle. Hashing out what didn't work, but also reveling in all the thing it did get right as well.

Its complicated.

This week we talk about the second half of The Mandalorian's first season. Four episodes that are just as good, if not better than the previous ones.

This week we go back to a Galaxy Far, Far Away with the first half of our two-parter on season 1 of The Mandalorian.

The first live-action TV show in the Star Wars universe, Jon Favreau's love letter to the Western genre was somehow able to unite the entire fandom in its praise.

This week we are introducing a new series with Franchise Detours. Wherein in between series we will talk about any film we please. Starting this week with Taika Waititi's beautiful 2019 film, Jojo Rabbit.
