EP34: Revenge of the Sith – Playing the Long Game

This week we kick off season 4 on May the 4th with Star Wars, Revenge of the Sith starring Hayden Christensen, Ewan McGregor, Ian McDiarmid, Natalie Portman, and Sam Jackson. We discuss the love Star Wars fans have for these moves (us included), how Palpatine is always 50 steps ahead, the complicity of the Jedi in their own destruction, Mace Windu’s revenge plan, the potential of a Darth Vader series, the dangers of secret relationships, and a deep dive into the off-film history of Star Wars mythology.
