Happy Star Wars Day! To celebrate, hosts Eddie and Intern Manager Amy are diving deep into the emotionally charged and pivotal conclusion of the prequel trilogy: "Star Wars: Revenge of the Sith," which fittingly turns 20 this month!
Join the duo as they explore how this often-dark chapter dramatically shaped the Star Wars saga and arguably ushered in a new generation of fans. As longtime enthusiasts, Eddie and Amy will reflect on how their perspectives on the film have evolved since its initial release two decades ago, contrasting their first impressions with more recent viewings informed by their own life experiences.
They'll also delve into the profound impact of Dave Filoni's animated storytelling – from The Clone Wars through its many follow-ups – and how the expanded lore and character development he's introduced have enriched their understanding and appreciation of "Revenge of the Sith" and the fall of Anakin Skywalker.
From the tragic arc of the Chosen One to the birth of the Rebellion, join Eddie and Amy for a thoughtful and nostalgic Star Wars Day discussion that bridges the gap between initial reactions and the deeper understanding forged by years of fandom and Filoni's masterful contributions. May the 4th be with you!
