Welcome to Tatooine Sons: A Star Wars Podcast! Samuel the Hutt an BB-N8 are on Spring Break hanging out at the beach! So, we decided this would be an AWESOME opportunity to look back at a few of our most interesting conversations from previous episodes! First, we share our thoughts on the crazy change of direction that we experienced with The Last Jedi. One of the most common criticisms of Episode VIII is that it seemed to diverge so much from everything we thought we knew after Episode VII: The Force Awakens. We discuss how this happened in the same way between the original Star Wars: A New Hope, and Episode V:  The Empire Srikes Back.(http://bit.ly/starwarsleftturn) What do you think?

It's been a little over a week since The Last Jedi was released! Join us as BB-N8 (Nathan Jesse), Samuel the Hutt (Sam Jesse), and The Bow Tie Jedi Guy (David Jesse) discuss the polarized opinions about the movie.First, we're taking a deeper look at this new version of Luke Skywalker (Mark Hamill). The Jedi Master was nothing like we were expecting. Was it good? Bad? And what does that mean for the future of the Star Wars saga?Next, we're debating whether the whole "Reylo" idea is finally dead. There's no doubt that Rey (Daisy Ridley) and Kylo Ren (Adam Driver) had an intense connection through the Force. But does this mean that a romantic storyline is coming in Episode IX? And finally, we're starting our countdown to Solo! Is Disney holding back a trailer because they're nervous about what this movie has become? Was Ron Howard able to salvage the train wreck that Lord and Miller left behind?Follow us on Twitter: https://twitter.com/TatooineSonsLike us on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/TatooineSons/Subscr
