We knew it would happen eventually: it's time to talk about the blue elephant in the room. It's our first episode on a Star Wars movie, it's RETURN OF THE JEDI!
It's ROTJ's 40th anniversary and we've got it all: vaudeville C-3P0, previous script drafts, revising those drafts to shut down fan theories, our favourite little freaks, retcons, original endings, hedonism, bikinis, special editions, Jabba naptime, recasting, Ewoks, and David Lynch. Plus, we can't pass up the opportunity to do some small John Williiams soundtrack analysis, and we take the opportunity to break down what we love about Williams' Star Wars work on the whole.
And if you ever wondered what originally filled the Star Wars story vaccuum in the decades after ROTJ, Nick is here with an Expanded Universe edition of Grab-oid Onto These Facts!
Look forward to our 40th anniversary episode for THE PHANTOM MENACE dropping in 2039.
