This week on the Over/Under Movies Podcast, we’re jumping to lightspeed and diving headfirst into a galaxy far, far away. That’s right—we’re talking about the legendary Star Wars original trilogy: A New Hope, The Empire Strikes Back, and Return of the Jedi. These films helped redefine science fiction, revolutionize visual effects, and shape modern blockbuster filmmaking—but are they still as untouchable as fans claim?
We break down the cultural impact of George Lucas’s groundbreaking space opera, the strengths (and flaws) of each installment, and how the trilogy holds up today. Is Empire still the gold standard? Does Jedi deserve more love? And how much does nostalgia factor into the legacy?
We also dig into critic vs. audience reception, performances from Mark Hamill, Harrison Ford, and Carrie Fisher, and whether the original trilogy lives up to its mythic status or is just a product of its time.
Whether you're a lifelong Star Wars fan or a skeptical newcomer, this episode is for you. Hit play, and may the Force be with you.
