Albert from the Cantina Cast joins us as we look back at Season 1 of The Acolyte including what went right, what went wrong and where the fallout leaves Star Wars going forward. Topics include:
- Cortosis, lightsaber bleeding and Darth Plagueis...oh my!
- The portrayal of the Jedi and the Sith
- Movie/season dump vs. episodic release
- Why it was canceled and was it doomed before it even aired?
- Questions left unanswered and will we see these characters in some form elsewhere?
- Can Lucasfilm make a successful Star Wars show/movie outside of the Skywalker era?
- What else does this mean for Star Wars projects going forward?
In our Question of the Week, we share your thoughts on what exactly 'peeping Plagueis' was up to in the cave on Bal'demnic. In news, Daisy Ridley will have the New Jedi Order script in her hands soon. We answer all of your Maul Bag questions and more!
