Star Wars 7x7: A Daily Bite-Sized Dose of Star Wars Joy

"We know Hera and Chopper survive at least until Rogue One. Who do you think will die in Rebels Season 4?" That's the question I posed in a couple of Star-Wars-dedicated podcast groups on Facebook earlier this week. The choices, of course, were Ezra, Kanan, Sabine, and Zeb. Their answers on today's podcast... Punch it!

The first nine episode titles and first six episode descriptions of Star Wars Rebels Season 4 have been released! Today, in the second half of our Rebels Season 4 preview, I'm comparing those descriptions to what we've been shown in the two trailers to see how they match up with what's been revealed to us. Punch it!

The first of a two-parter, taking a look at the upcoming final season of Star Wars Rebels, based upon the new (and also final) trailer for the first half of the season, debuting in October. Punch it!

Operation Cinder was part of Emperor Palpatine's infamous "Contingency" - his plan to have the Empire washed away from the face of the galaxy in the event of his own death. It already has ties to the Star Wars comics (Shattered Empire) and novels (the Aftermath trilogy). Now, it's tied into video games with Star Wars Battlefront II, as Admiral Garrick Versio is drawn into the operation. His daughter, Commander Iden Versio, may be as well, but Garrick has other orders for her first. Plus, what Domhnall Gleeson (The Force Awakens' General Armitage Hux) has to say about the script of The Last Jedi and the selection of J.J. Abrams for Episode IX. Punch it!

Inspired by BB-8 on the Run - which, when you consider it, you discover that Tuanal can't have been too far away from Rey's AT-AT home - and by the fact that every important abandoned child in Star Wars has had someone benevolent and nearby to help with their upbringing. So, the question is, who was that for Rey? I put out a poll, and the results may shock you. Plus, an overseas movie chain may have revealed the runtime of The Last Jedi. Punch it!

Rian Johnson and Mark Hamill have been two of the loudest proponents of keeping the runup to The Last Jedi as spoiler-free as possible. So of course they would be the two folks picked to be primarily interviewed for the traditional Empire Magazine (three years in a row is a tradition, right?) cover story on the coming Star Wars movie. But there are a couple of surprises in the article, to be sure - including at least one item which confirms a leak that had been kicking around the internet for a while. Plus, on a side note, I think I've realized who the Knights of Ren really are. Punch it!

A children's picture book? Color me surprised, too. But the artwork is absolutely stunning, and the story's got its fair share of twists and surprises. It's called "BB-8 on the Run," and I'm talking about it on the podcast today. I'll also spend a little time going all Conspiracy Theory on you, and talking about who could have been (benevolently) keeping an eye on Rey all these years... Punch it!

A coming of age story at the nexus of politics, tyranny, and rebellion, Leia: Princess of Alderaan manages to tie the Prequel Trilogy, Original Trilogy, Sequel Trilogy, and even a standalone movie into one utterly believable package, with a dynamic character taking her place in the center of it all. Punch it!

It's just one line in the novel Leia, Princess of Alderaan by Claudia Gray, but it was enough to launch a thousand internet articles. Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo, being played by Laura Dern in The Last Jedi, appears as a young woman in the Leia novel and says something that opens the door to wondering if she'll be the first openly LGBTQ character in a Star Wars movie. Punch it!
