Don’t be coy with us, Star Wars.
In Episode 96, hosts Alyce and Laura sometimes need* to be beaten over the head with the point you’re trying to make. Lookin’ at you, Jon Favreau.
- Surprise! Star Wars Celebration announced the panel schedule with no warning. Check out the list!
- We have a To-Do list for the good people at Reed Pop. Item #1: Stop hosting Celebration at venues that have tiny arenas. Item #2: Keep making the badge artwork top tier.
- Is the Ahsoka series coming out sooner than we thought?
- We as a society need to make it a priority to invent time turners. Or find a way that we can attend multiple Celebration panels at one time. Add that to the above to-do list!
- Updates on the pending Star Wars films that are… uh, scratch that - were in the works (via Variety)
- Dave Filoni did an interview with The Wrap (we liked Gizmodo’s coverage of it) about the forthcoming climactic crossover event. What big, world-changing surprise do you think will show up in the The Mando-verse climax? (lol climax)
- Speaking of Mando-mania, look at all this super fun Mando merch!
- SO MUCH ACOLYTE NEWS YAY
- Our first glimpse at Phase 3 of The High Republic is here! Check out this excerpt from Claudia Gray’s short story, After the Fall (via ew.com)
- For the low, low price of half a million USD, you too can own this hover drone bike thingy
- THRAWN JUMP SCARE
- There’s a whole lotta Recapping On Tapping to do in this episode! Beware of SPOILERS for both The Bad Batch episodes 2x12 and 2x13 AND The Mandalorian Chapters 18 and 19.
- Speaking of The Bad Batch, check out this image of Crosshair - does he or does he not look like he has wings? Choose carefully, because the answer will determine whether or not you are a Fancy Art Person.
- Then we tie up Recap on Tap with The Mandalorian, Chapters 18 (which we LOVED) and Chapter 19 (which we did not understand).
