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.

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
