The Long Take Review

May the Fourth Be With You 2023


Listen Later

We are movie lovers and Oscar prognosticators, but we are also dedicated Star Wars fans. In honor of Star Wars Day (May 4th) 2023, P.T., Greg, and I share our memories of Return of the Jedi as well as our experiences seeing the 1983 film on the big screen during its recent 40th anniversary re-release. We then transition to a discussion of the Star Wars franchise as a whole, especially from a film perspective. Listen for our takes on The Mandalorian Season 3, the recently announced Dave Filoni “event film,” storytelling continuity, and the joy that a Galaxy Far, Far, Away brings.

SPOILER WARNING: While we don’t openly discuss any major spoilers, the second half of this conversation operates under the assumption that listeners have seen all Star Wars films and series to date, especially The Mandalorian.
