    Twenty Years of Revenge.

    Celebrate 20 years of Star Wars: Episode III: Revenge of the Sith with Matt & John as they share what the film has meant to them, how it’s held up, and its impact on modern film history. Was this a gold standard set, or a letdown for fans? Are there heroes on both sides…or is there truly something more to this blockbuster of the early 2000s?

    Andor: We’ll Always Have Rix Road.

    The final two episodes of Star Wars Andor give Matt and John plenty to discuss as the arc resolves from Season 1. We see the fear, anger and hate boil over into a riotous uprising on Ferrix, with Andor caught in the middle as he returns to try to save Bix and mourn his mother. Did they hit the right pace? Did they break the story effectively across two episodes? And what in the name of weirdness is going on with Syril and Dedra?

    Issue 396: Andor: Season One - One Way Out
    Apr 15 2025
    The 10th episode of Star Wars Andor gives Matt and John plenty to discuss as the explosively emotional climax of the Narkina 5 prison break, the indictment of detached life, and the role of the hero is not just to save but serve as the symbol that those making difficult choices never can. Join them for a discussion of “One Way Out,” the Star Wars episode that birthed an unforgettable meme among amazing set pieces and performances.

    Andor: Season One - Nobody’s Listening!

    The 9th episode of Star Wars: Andor left everyone reeling, with enhanced interrogation (torture) displayed onscreen, the prison complex of Narkina 5 becoming an even more desperate place, and the people of Coruscant reacting to daily life in the Empire in very different ways. John and Matt discuss their reactions to the themes of this episode and ponder what must have been the fate of Narkina 5 when the Empire fell. They dissect and praise the work of the actors and actresses, and debate if the plot lines find the right balance overall.

    Andor: Season One - Narkina 5.

    Matt and John continue their S1 rewatch with the 8th episode of Star Wars: Andor. Andor, on the run from his past, was arrested for a crime he didn't commit and now we get to see the Imperial Justice System from the inside. In “Narkina 5,” questions about industrial prisons, humane treatment, and scales of justice are asked. But does the audience get satisfaction from the exercise, or frustration in a lack of resolution?

    This is a recap discussion so big, @TheJediMasters have enlisted the aid of their friend and fellow The Nerd Party host, Darren Moser to talk over the nuances of justice meted out in a Galaxy Far, Far Away.

    Andor: Season One - Announcement.

    As Andor Season 2 approaches, Matt and John discuss the themes and story turns in the seventh episode of Star Wars: Andor. A new arc starts with this episode, focused on the galactic ripple effects from the Aldhani heist, while Cassian returns home amid planning what to do with his score. What is the episode trying to say? Does it advance the series momentum? Does it suffer as a prequel to Rogue One by working too hard to tie things in to where it’s going? It’s sure to be another interesting episode as the Jedi Masters work to see eye to eye on “Announcement.”

    Andor: Season One - The Eye.

    As Andor Season 2 approaches, Matt and John continue their StarWars: Andor Season 1 rewatch to discuss their opinions of the sixth episode, “The Eye.” The conclusion of the second 3-episode arc, does it deliver on the promise of a great heist moment…or prove to be a dud of mismatched storylines?

    Issue 391: Andor: Season One - The Axe Forgets
    Mar 11 2025
    We’re closer to the new season of Andor, and so Matt and John continue their StarWars: Andor Season 1 rewatch to discuss their opinions of the fifth episode, “The Axe Forgets.” In the unenviable position as the middle episode of a three-episode arc, does it keep the momentum or lose its footing like a hike in the Aldhani mountains?

    This episode features an in-depth discussion of the fifth episode of Star Wars: Andor’s first season, as they continue to explore what the filmmakers were working to accomplish.
