Skywalking Through Neverland: Keeping the Star Wars Magic Alive

If behind-the-scenes stories are your jam, listen to this fantastic discussion with Jabba the Hutt sculptor, John Coppinger! When you first saw Jabba the Hutt in Return of the Jedi, did you have an instant reaction to his look? We can thank John Coppinger for being an intrinsic part of that response. He also puppeteered Jabba's eyes on set every chance he got. What amazing stories! John also came back to work on, and perform, many characters in The Phantom Menace. His resume includes the first three Harry Potter films, The Fifth Element, The Dark Crystal and more.

You can even meet John Coppinger and get his autograph at Boonta Eve - the pre-Celebration Bash in London on April 6. Many thanks to Spencer Jawitz and Frank Rich for this discussion!

Never Land on Alderaan!

Jason W. Christman, Star Wars artist, joins us to talk about the Celebration Art Show at Star Wars Celebration Europe. If you like The Empire Strikes Back, probe droids, and a snowy Hoth landscape then Jason has the print for you - "We Have a Visitor"!

Is it a concert, a convention, or a cantina? It's all three!! #Cantina is a HUGE event happening in conjunction with Star Wars Celebration Europe and the organizers tell us all about it. Martin Keeler, Jed Shepherd, and Mark Hamilton make us SUPER jealous of this amazing event happening April 9th in London. So many Star Wars celebrities, so many bands! Tickets available here.

Never Land on Alderaan!

Frazer Diamond, Star Wars Jawa, shares stories from the set! Frazer played the Jawa who freaked out C-3PO in the Sandcrawler, and is also the son of Original Trilogy stunt coordinator, the legendary Peter Diamond (Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Princess Bride, Star Wars). So he has double the stories to share! He will be signing at Boonta Eve in London on April 6th. Thanks to Spencer Jawitz and Frank Rich for helping to set up our conversation.

Disneyland update! Mickey's Toontown reopened with refreshed land, food and attractions. We took Bo-Katan and tell you all about it! Be sure to check out our instagram Reels for all the fun. Indiana Jones attraction also reopened after a months-long closure, and we…tried to ride… Listen for how that story went!

Never Land on Alderaan!

It is always exciting to speak with someone involved in the original Star Wars trilogy who can give us first-hand stories of what it was really like to work on these epic films. Alan Fying was a Stormtrooper, Snowtrooper, and a Hoth Soldier in The Empire Strikes Back, and an Imperial Officer in Return of the Jedi. He shares never-before-heard, knock-your-socks-off stories about the making of Star Wars. If you see him signing autographs at Boonta Eve on April 6th, think up a fun question - Alan will give you a fun answer!

Thanks to Spencer Jawitz and Frank Rich for helping to set up our conversation with Alan. Thank you to Simon Wilkie (C-3P0) for the birthday message.

Read an article about Alan from author Eric Onkenhout.

Never Land on Alderaan!

Join Sarah, Courtney, and Kelly as they hit the open road with Goofy, his son Max and all their wacky friends as they take you back to 1995 with A Goofy Movie.

Courtney and Kelly challenged Sarah to watch A Goofy Movie for the very first time. While Sarah has never seen A Goofy Movie, it's one of Courtney and Kelly's favorites. Join their discussion between a first-time watch and a nostalgic rewatch as we discuss the music, the plot, the easter eggs, and whether or not this movie holds up in 2023.

They also discussed the 2015 D23 Expo 20th Anniversary panel of A Goofy Movie that Kelly and Courtney attended and reveal that Courtney has choreographed the music of A Goofy Movie for their dance shows.

If you have questions for Courtney, Kelly or Sarah about Walt Disney World or Disneyland you can DM us on Intragram @neverlandclubhousepod and we may answer your question in a upcoming podcast!
