Episode 190: Force Friday – The Last Jedi Trailer 1 Breakdown, KOTOR Remake, and Carrie Fisher Tribute! (April 14, 2017)

Welcome back Cast Members, to another Force Friday episode here at CLOUD CITY CAST!

Star Wars Celebration Orlando is finally here and we have so much to talk about! George Lucas and Harrison Ford surprised fans by appearing onstage for the opening panel, marking the first time that Harrison has made an appearance at any Celebration. Billie Lourd paid tribute to her mother in an incredibly emotional speech complete with video montage of Carrie throughout the years. We typically tell you to take fan theories with a grain of salt, but this time we might need to borrow the salt to help us choke down some crow. A popular fan theory was practically confirmed by Clone Wars/Rebels Producer/Director Dave Filoni and Star Wars historian Pablo Hidalgo. In twisted Heath Ledger Joker fashion, they also gave us some fun insight in how Boba Fett “got these scars”. And to cap off the animated section, we’ll find out Ahsoka’s fate in this next season of Rebels, with a sneak peak this Saturday at the Star Wars Rebels panel. Billy Dee Williams confirmed that he WILL NOT be in Episode 8, much to fans display, and Disney confirmed that General Leia will not appear in Episode 9, despite claims made by Carrie’s brother, Todd Fisher. Forces of Destiny toy line makes to right the wrongs done to the heroines of the Star Wars franchise, especially after recent social media dust ups pointing out the absence of female character toys. Mark Hamill had his own tribute panel where he broke down his relationship with Carrie and how she impacted him both on and off the screen throughout the years. And finally, It looks like Knights of the Old Republic is getting a facelift as reports have surfaced that developers in Austin, Texas are currently in development of a remake/revival of the hugely successful game series.

Episode 187: Final Frontier Friday/Star Trek Saturday  – Animation Station Cash In On The Final Day for Switch Week! (April 7, 2017)

Welcome back Cast Members, to our Final Frontier Friday episode here at CLOUD CITY CAST!

This isn’t an April Fool’s joke, although that would be an amazing idea for the future, but we lost a bet to Animation Station Podcast back during the Academy Awards season saying that Moana would beat out Zootopia for  Best Animated Film. Obviously, we did not win and so now we find ourselves in the delightfully obscure position as we will be dedicating our 3 shows this week to the diametric opposite to our regularly scheduled programming.

In our final day of the bet, we had Josh and Gavin on to talk about Star Trek. They picked out a couple episodes for us to watch to see what our thoughts we be, and we chatted about the upcoming Discovery television series starring Sonequa Martin-Green from The Walking Dead!

Episode 186: How To Train Your Wednesday – Captain Underpants, Shrek 15, and Boss Baby Bosses Box Office! (April 5, 2017)

Welcome back Cast Members, to our How To Train Your Wednesday episode here at CLOUD CITY CAST!

This isn’t an April Fool’s joke, although that would be an amazing idea for the future, but we lost a bet to Animation Station Podcast back during the Academy Awards season saying that Moana would beat out Zootopia for  Best Animated Film. Obviously, we did not win and so now we find ourselves in the delightfully obscure position as we will be dedicating our 3 shows this week to the diametric opposite to our regularly scheduled programming.

Today we’re talking all things Dreamworks, starting with Larrikins being scrapped in favor of Captain Underpants starring Ed Helms and Kevin Hart.

Boss Baby has almost made back it’s entire budget in just it’s opening weekend at 114m.

There’s a slew of upcoming animation from Dreamworks coming our way, from Croods 2, How To Train Your Dragon 3, Puss in Boots 2, and Madagascar 4.

The Shrek 5 script is finished and should go into production later this year for a theatrical release in 2019.

Episode 185: Man of Steel Monday – Joss Whedon Switches Teams, New Justice League Trailer, and DC Starts Stacking the Deck! (April 3, 2017)

Welcome back Cast Members, to our Man of Steel Monday episode here at CLOUD CITY CAST!

This isn’t an April Fool’s joke, although that would be an amazing idea for the future, but we lost a bet to Animation Station Podcast back during the Academy Awards season saying that Moana would beat out Zootopia for  Best Animated Film. Obviously, we did not win and so now we find ourselves in the delightfully obscure position as we will be dedicating our 3 shows this week to the diametric opposite to our regularly scheduled programming. First up this week we’ll be talking about everything going on in the DC Universe. Kicking it off with Joss Whedon switching sides to direct a Batgirl solo movie for the DCEU, which will feature the New 52 version of Batgirl, Barbara Gordon, having donned the cape and cowl again after recovering from her spinal injury seen in The Killing Joke. Wonder Woman may not have much of a future as screenwriter Geoff Johns said during a recent panel at WonderCon that he “can’t confirm” that a sequel is in the works. Speaking of WonderCon, Wonder Woman director Patty Jenkins and screenwriter Geoff Johns both confirmed that the three things missing from the DCEU are exactly what makes CW’s The Flash so endearing: heart, humor, and heroics. The new Justice League trailer has dropped and although the previously mentioned heart, humor and heroics may be present, one thing that is still apparently constantly missing is the sun. The Flash film has now run through two directors and seems to be in dire need of someone to kick the film into high gear. With Warner Brothers pushing back Aquaman from early October to late December of 2018, could this be the film they want to launch in production this year, and if so, who will direct? Also in the works are Gotham City Sirens (David Ayer to direct), Suicide Squad 2 (with possibly Mel Gibson slated to direct), Dark Universe (originally slated to be directed by Guillermo Del Toro, who has since left to be replaced by Doug Liman), Green Lantern Corps (not slated for release until 2020), and a slew of solo films from Deadshot, Black Adam, Lobo, and Nightwing. Aaron Sorkin is best known for his rapid fire dialogue and incredibly intense character arcs on such shows as The West Wing and movies like The Social Network and Steve Jobs. Reportedly he’s now turning his head to superhero films as he’s had meeting with both DC and Marvel.
