Welcome to episode 80 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Vanity Fair on The Rise of Skywalker. On this episode, The Scoundrels are breaking down everything we learned from Lev Grossman's article and Annie Leibovitz's pictures in Vanity Fair about The Rise of Skwyalker. Plus, there is some news about upcoming Star Wars projects as well.
Star Wars News Before the Vanity Fair discussion, the Scoundrels have two primary news stories to cover this week:
- After the release dates for the next three Star Wars movies were announced last week, Star Wars fans now know who is in charge of those films, and
- The Mandalorian and the Cassian Andor series aren't the only live action Star Wars shows coming to Disney+.
Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus have several opinions on what Bob Iger's announcements about upcoming movies and live action television shows on Disney+ mean.
Annie Leibovitz's The Rise of Skywalker photos in Vanity Fair The talk of the Star Wars world for the past week has been all about Annie Leibovitz's photographs and Lev Grossman's article about The Rise of Skywalker in Vanity Fair. Now, the Scoundrels dive in and discuss:
- The Knights of Ren,
- The involvement of Jordan in filming the movie,
- Keri Russell's character: Zorri Bliss,
- The introduction of Richard E. Grant's character,
- Billy Dee Williams returns to Star Wars,
- Kylo Ren and Rey's Force connection,
- Jannah and Finn riding on orbaks,
- How Carrie Fisher was integrated into The Rise of Skywalker,
- Luke Skywalker's role in The Rise of Skywalker, and
- So much more.
Silence Fools All the coverage of Annie Leibovitz's photographs from Vanity Fair, leaves little time at the end of the episode. Normally, and episode of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels ends with listener feedback. However, Scoundrel Nation was a little quiet in the past week. Therefore, Dennis and Jay ask Taxus about his impressions of The Mandalorian panel from Star Wars Celebration Chicago. Darth Taxus delivers big time.
The Scoundrels hope you enjoy episode 80: "Vanity Fair on The Rise of Skywalker" We hope you will consider subscribing to Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels wherever you get your podcasts.

Notes:

Welcome to episode 69 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: The Force Begins. On this episode, Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus look back to their initial impressions of the Force after the release of A New Hope. Before they get to the news, the Scoundrels discuss the potential for the Russos to direct a movie and Dennis reports on the John Williams Christmas concert at the Dallas Symphony. Star Wars in the News It was a busy week for Star Wars news. The Scoundrels discussing casting and production news for the live action Star Wars television series. Also, they discuss additional guest announcements for Star Wars Celebration Chicago. In addition, the news includes discussion of a new Darth Vader comic and a new Thrawn novel. Finally, the news concludes with a discussion of Star Wars Galaxy of Adventures.
The Force Begins An episode of Galaxy of Adventures features Luke receiving Anakin's lightsaber. However, the animation of that scene is far different than the scene presented in A New Hope. This got the Scoundrels thinking, "what were our early impressions of the Force 40 years ago?" In this week's "Hyperthetical," they look back on the presentation and introduction of the Force to movie audiences from A New Hope.
Silence Fools! As with every episode, episode 69 ends with another edition of "Silence Fools!" For listeners new to Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels, "Silence Fools!" is the feedback and listener participation segment of this show. On this week's show, they Scoundrels answer a listener email and discuss whether Obi-Wan should have done more to counter Palpatine's influence of Anakin.
Thanks for tuning into episode 69 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: The Force Begins. We hope you enjoyed this our discussion of the the introduction of the Force.

elcome to episode 68.2 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Secrets and Holograms. On this episode, Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus take a look at the discoveries Kaz makes while spying on Captain Doza. However, those discoveries are set against a backdrop of adventure with the captain's daughter: Torra Doza. Secrets and Holograms "Secrets and Holograms" begins with Torra Doza lamenting her boredom in her bedroom. After confronting her father about his dealings with the First Order, she decides to sneak out. Very quickly, she bumps (literally) into Kaz and BB-8. Although Kaz tags along for her trip to the market, he is really interested in spying on Torra's father.
On this episode, the Scoundrels discuss Kaz's continuing evolution as a spy. Plus, when presented with a straightforward question about whether he is a spy, Kaz answers with a poor excuse for a lie. Does he have a day of reckoning coming? In addition, the First Order is making a move on Colossus. What will the results be.

Welcome to episode 68 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: Kenobi Quesions. On this episode, Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus discuss the hero of the prequels: Obi-Wan Kenobi. There are a few other matters to get to first.
Star Wars in the News After a slow news week in episode 67, the Scoundrels have plenty up for discussion this week. They pour over the news of a live action Cassian Andor series. Then they discuss casting news for The Mandalorian. Also, they discuss announcements of authors appearing at Star Wars Celebration Chicago. Finally, they end the show with news about the Galaxy's Edge additions to Disney Parks.
Kenobi Questions Obi-Wan Kenobi was the original mentor to Luke Skywalker and the hero of the prequel trilogy. In addition, he was a general and key figure in the Clone Wars. On episode 68, Dennis, Jay, and Darth Taxus discuss this legendary Jedi Master. Kenobi had a fluid view of the truth and point-of-view. Do the Scoundrels agree with his reasoning? In addition, his padawan, Anakin Skywalker, isn't the only one with a love interest in his life. Could Obi-Wan have gone the same route? The Scoundrels discuss this and much more in this week's "hyperthetical."

They revisit the hype and promotion of the films leading up to their release. They'll reflect on some of the twists and surprises from the movies as well. It is a fun trip down memory lane, so join the Scoundrels for the fun.

Welcome to episode 65.3 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: The Triple Dark. On this Scoundrels Special Edition, Jay and Dennis continue the discussion of Resistance with a look at the second episode of the series.
The Triple Dark
"The Triple Dark" begins with Kaz continuing to make his own way on Colossus Station. Kaz is eager to begin his mission for a spy for the Resistance. His initial efforts at spying meet with less than desirable results. However, he overhears a communication about the Triple Dark, and when he learns it is a storm later, he begins to put things together. Can Kaz successfully aid the Aces in defending Colossus from a pirate raid?
During their review of "The Triple Dark," Dennis and Jay take a critical lens to the show. What is currently working for Resistance? Where does it falter. In particular, Dennis and Jay identify a couple of tropes they found annoying. Plus, is the tone more similar to Looney Tunes than Star Wars in places?
Despite the faults of "The Triple Dark," this episode does have some high points. Kaz is developing, even if slowly. Plus, there are some great looking ships in this episode. Download episode 65.3 and get the full take from the Scoundrels.

Welcome to episode 65.1 of Starships, Sabers, and Scoundrels: The Novel Bracket Part II. On this Scoundrels Special Edition, Dennis and Jay shake off the absence of Darth Taxus, who is neck deep with real life responsibilities, and begin the Scounrels' coverage of the latest Star Wars animated series from Lucasfilm.
"The Recruit"
Episode one of The Resistance begins with pilot for the Republic Kazuda "Kaz" Xiono and his wingmates pursued by a First Order TIE Fighter as they attempt a delivery of top secret intel to Poe Dameron of the Resistance. Before long, Kaz finds himself a new recruit in the fight against the dangerous First Order. Poe assigns him his first mission as a spy on Colossus Station on the ocean world of Castilon. Soon thereafter, Kaz is caught up in a community of racers on this haven for smugglers as he looks for First Order operatives.
Dennis and Jay dive into "The Recruit" and discuss Kaz and his new allies Yeager, Torra Doza, Tam Ryvora, and Neeku. Does Resistance hold up compared to The Clone Wars and Rebels? How does the action come across on the screen? Is this show truly aimed at 8 year olds, or is it appealing to all audiences? The Scoundrels discuss these questions as they work through the first episode of the series.

The Future of Star Wars in the News
Current Star Wars concerns the future of Star Wars on the big screen and the organizational structure at Lucasfilm.

The Emperor grows tired of the galaxy speaking with multiple voices and seeks the elimination of the Imperial Senate so that only his voice dictates the will of the Empire.

In addition, he senses the influence of the Jedi in Mon Cala's affairs. Naturally, he sends Darth Vader and his Inquisitorious to handle the situation.
Indeed, there is a Jedi involved. Dennis and Darth Taxus discuss whether this Jedi lives up to the Jedi ideal. Or, has this Jedi adopted methods the Jedi Council would frown on? What are the motives of this Jedi, and do the ends justify the means? Plus, what memories does returning to Mon Cala surface for Darth Vader?
