Wind, rain and sickness won’t keep us from you. Disney buys Lucasfilm, Marvel works on new Avengers stuff, and Microsoft looks at phone hardware. We review Wreck it Ralph and Walking Dead Ep 4, plus our early impressions of AC3 and indie-platforming darling, Pid. Finally, we find out who you’d recast for Luke, Leia, and Han in Star Wars Episode 7.
What does the future hold with Disney’s acquisition of Lucasfilm? Search your feelings as we scratch the surface of what this might mean for the Star Wars franchise.
The cat is out of the bag, and we couldn’t be more excited to let you all know that we’ll be joined on this week’s podcast by Clone Wars star Ashley Eckstein, who plays the incredible Ahsoka Tanno!
Ash and Scott return from Star Wars Celebration VI to bring you tales of fun from a galaxy far, far away. We do spoiler-free talk about the season finale’s of Newsroom and True Blood. And, in the spirit of SWCVI, we ask: What is your Bounty Hunter name? Hijinks ensue as the gang prepares for PAX Prime. We’re going to need a bigger bacta tank.
Alternate working title, “Inside the Ackbar Studio,” Tim Rose and Mike Quinn talk about their experiences as puppet masters, working with Jim Henson and The Muppets, Star Wars, and how Rose was fired off ROTJ by Harrison Ford… sort of.
An audio adventure including the talent of James Arnold Taylor, Dee Bradley Baker , Ashley Eckstein , Tom Kane (Yoda), and Matt Lanter .
My love of Star Wars: The Clone Wars is not a well guarded secret. As a series, the Clone Wars continues to get better and better with each passing season and magically manages to deliver the same action and storytelling nuance that made the Star Wars of old the legend that it is today. I was lucky enough to attend the Clone Wars season five premiere and subsequent press conference at Star Wars Celebration VI, and even got a few bags of force infused popcorn to munch on while we watched! It really did taste better than regular popcorn.
The gang gets into karaoke in the QOTW. We talk SWCVI, PAX Prime, tech business, Avengers 2, and Capcom’s Remember me. We review ME3’s Firefight DLC, Nexus 7, Orcs Must Die 2, Risen 2, Darksiders 2, and Bourne Legacy. Special thanks this week to Mark Dago for the Star Wars inspired track Knightfall, available at markdago.bandcamp.com
Orlando FL is the theme park capital of the United States and we’re just starting to get a ton of incredible conventions in our humble city as well. Due perhaps to the success of Disney’s Hollywood studios, Orlando is lucky enough to once again be the home of the biggest Star Wars convention in the entire galaxy, Star Wars Celebration VI. Here are some of the panel highlights for the big con taking place between August 23 – August 26th 2012. It should also be noted that we’ll be doing our best to provide coverage of the event, and are really keeping our fingers crossed that there will be a lot of Twi’Leks with nice lekkus.
Hey there gang. Just writing a quick note to thank you for making July one of our best months ever at NerdAppropriate.com. Despite being scattered unto the winds we managed to produce four podcasts (thanks Scott), conducted a bum load of interviews, ran an incredibly fun community game night, and Matt, Hilary, and myself even managed to provide a wee bit of Comic-Con coverage out in San Diego. So how the heck do we top July? August! *Explosion Noise*
Us kids of the Star Wars generation are old enough now to have kids of our own, and what better way to spend a day with them than to get some cool Star Wars swag and read the stories to…
Due to the sheer size of Comic-Con, some of the best cosplay on the planet can be seen within its hallowed walls. We figured we’d plop a little gallery here up on the site that highlights some of the coolest cosplay we got a chance to see this year.
