George Lucas’s Sequels & Bob Iger’s Book

In this episode we chat one on one in the escape pod all about the recent buzz from Bob Iger's new book. George Lucas's feelings on the sequel trilogy, how he was blindsided in a meeting with Kathy, J.J. Abrams and company about going forward with their ideas for what the sequels would look like having not been warned by Bob prior to the meeting. Bob writes about how he regrets not handling the situation better. We piece that together with his interview on Charlie Rose after EPISODE 7 came out and his feelings toward DISNEY there. And talk about what George's ideas for the sequel trilogies would've been, his treatments and the concept art from TFA that was based on his ideas with ties to the PREQUELS. Lucas's sequel trilogy really would have brought it round circle, we miss George and wish him all the best in his retirement, and all the best for JJ as he finishes The Rise of Skywalker in post production. ———————————————————————— Star Wars Escape Pod 🖥️ Website: https://swescapepodcast.wixsite.com/star-wars-escape-pod 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/SWEscapePodcast 🦋 B.Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/swescapepodcast.bsky.social 🌐 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/SWEscapePodcast 📲 Swell: https://www.swellcast.com/swescapepodcast 📧 Email us or send a voice message to: swescapepodcast@gmail.com 🗃️ Podcast Archives: https://shorturl.at/cktPQ ————————————————————————

VADER IMMORTAL: Episode 2

Our first co-host Reid joins us again in the Escape Pod! We talk about how interest started with Star Wars and then all about the second episode in the Vader Immortal VR trilogy. We review the game a bit and talk reaction, and story points along the way that some to us are still a mystery.

Was Technology Too Advanced In The Prequels? | Article Bash

We take the escape pod on a trip down to Nar Shadaa where we meet up our next co-host, Calvin, in a funky little cantina with jazzy tunes. We dive into an article on screenrant.com titled "Star Wars: 10 Times Prequel Technology Was Way Too Advanced", we have great discussion about each item on the list. We hope next time screenrant can come up with some better reasons to dislike technology in the prequels... ———————————————————————— Star Wars Escape Pod 🖥️ Website: https://swescapepodcast.wixsite.com/star-wars-escape-pod 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/SWEscapePodcast 🦋 B.Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/swescapepodcast.bsky.social 🌐 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/SWEscapePodcast 📲 Swell: https://www.swellcast.com/swescapepodcast 📧 Email us or send a voice message to: swescapepodcast@gmail.com 🗃️ Podcast Archives: https://shorturl.at/cktPQ ————————————————————————

Star Wars ”Canon” | Explained

On route to our first destination we fill the time with a quick catch up for those unfamiliar with the terms "canon" "expanded universe" or "legends" within the star wars community and how they're used to reference different types of story content. Brief coverage of the Disney acquisition of Lucasfilm in 2012 that has relevance to what makes canon today. Going forward these things might be useful to know for the full episodes and it could help new fans to the franchise and old fans who want a quick refresher. ———————————————————————— Star Wars Escape Pod 🖥️ Website: https://swescapepodcast.wixsite.com/star-wars-escape-pod 🐦 Twitter: https://twitter.com/SWEscapePodcast 🦋 B.Sky: https://bsky.app/profile/swescapepodcast.bsky.social 🌐 Linktree: https://linktr.ee/SWEscapePodcast 📲 Swell: https://www.swellcast.com/swescapepodcast 📧 Email us or send a voice message to: swescapepodcast@gmail.com 🗃️ Podcast Archives: https://shorturl.at/cktPQ ————————————————————————
