Burning Bridges with Mike Spreigl Episode 2: The Original Trilogy

My old friend John and I discuss and break down the pros and cons of the Original Star Wars Trilogy. We revisit our fond memories of the trilogy from when we were kids to the realities of things now that we are older.

Join us as we discuss the why A New Hope is John's favorite verses why Empire stands stronger in my heart. We discuss how Lucas's attempt to "Fix" the Original Trilogy was done with the heart in the right place but failed in execution. I defend Lando's honor as John calls him a "Space Pimp". We both agree that Return of the Jedi is an amazing action film burdened by bad storytelling. And we spend what probably is the longest anyone has discussed the Ewok made for TV movies in recent years.
