Ep 41Episode XLI - The Phantom Menace, Part 1
At the time is was released, it was a Star Wars movie much maligned by older fans who were expecting a more serious adventure. For many of the younger fans, however, it was an exciting and fun expedition into just how different Star Wars could be when Lucas took it in an entirely new direction. Is Jar Jar too jarring? Does the CGI hold up? Does the first of the prequels deserve to be in the bottom three of most people's Star Wars rankings? Let's talk about these questions and more in part 1 of our discussion on The Phantom Menace!BECOME A PATRON: https://www.patreon.com/massivebreakdownpodcastDESTINY 2 PODS:PVP: https://destiny-massive-breakdowns.captivate.fm/listenPVE: https://pve-podcast-versus-enemies.captivate.fm/listenCHAT SERVER: https://discord.gg/TheyfeQHOME PAGE: https://destinymassivebreakdowns.com

Ep 40Episode XL - Obi-Wan Kenobi, Episode 6
Now this is how you end a show! Kenobi wraps up on a high note, with one of the best duels we've seen in Star Wars, a foreshadowed redemption arc for one character, and a hopeful future for all. Lots of parallels here to other Star Wars media to discuss, in particular the sequels and some legends ideas, and we're not entirely opposed to seeing some more of these characters again.

Episode 5: Now this is where the fun begins!

Ep 38Episode XXXVIII - Obi-Wan Kenobi, Episode 4
This seems to have been the community's least favorite episode of Kenobi so far, but we found a ton to like for such a short episode. A little bit of the typical Star Wars cheesiness offsets one of the darker plots, with an incredible setting and some fun easter eggs, but once again some editing issues rear their ugly head.

Ep 37Episode XXXVII - Obi-Wan Kenobi, Episode 3
And this is the episode we've been waiting for! A fantastic ride from start to finish, we have difficulty finding things we don't like about it! Newly introduced characters who are cool, sweet callbacks to Clone Wars era friends, and some of the best villainous acting we've seen so far combine to make this our favorite episode let.

Ep 36Episode XXXVI - Obi-Wan Kenobi, Episode 2
After the high of week one's episode, how do we feel about episode 2? High highs, and low lows, it turns out! A child that continues to be unconvincingly hard to catch and a ridiculous parkour scene drag down a stellar opening half and fantastic last minute reveal. Let's discuss!BECOME A PATRON: https://www.patreon.com/massivebreakdownpodcastDESTINY 2 PODS:PVP: https://destiny-massive-breakdowns.captivate.fm/listenPVE: https://pve-podcast-versus-enemies.captivate.fm/listenCHAT SERVER: https://discord.gg/TheyfeQHOME PAGE: https://destinymassivebreakdowns.com

Ep 35Episode XXXV - Obi-Wan Kenobi, Episode 1
Spoilers for Episode 1 of Obi-Wan Kenobi abound! How did we feel about the new show? Is Obi-Wan living up to expectations? Are the new characters good additions to the universe? And what about the characters making their first appearance in live-action? Let's talk about Kenobi's inaugural episode on this week's Star Wars: Beneath Twin Suns!BECOME A PATRON: https://www.patreon.com/massivebreakdownpodcastDESTINY 2 PODS:PVP: https://destiny-massive-breakdowns.captivate.fm/listenPVE: https://pve-podcast-versus-enemies.captivate.fm/listenCHAT SERVER: https://discord.gg/TheyfeQHOME PAGE: https://destinymassivebreakdowns.com

Ep 34Episode XXXIV - The Rise of Skywalker, Part 2
Well, we've finally reached the conclusion of the sequel trilogy, and for the first time, the hosts really disagree on where they fall on a movie. Kutch found himself hating RoS even more upon the latest rewatch, whereas Merc has softened his opinion slightly. Why do they keep introducing named characters who serve no purpose? Why do they create needlessly complex situations that get solved by random chance? What exactly is in some of these deleted scenes that could have helped the movie gain some clarity? All these questions and more, in this week's episode!BECOME A PATRON: https://www.patreon.com/massivebreakdownpodcastDESTINY 2 PODS:PVP: https://destiny-massive-breakdowns.captivate.fm/listenPVE: https://pve-podcast-versus-enemies.captivate.fm/listenCHAT SERVER: https://discord.gg/TheyfeQHOME PAGE: https://destinymassivebreakdowns.com

Ep 33Episode XXXIII - The Rise of Skywalker, Part 1
Ever want to know what light speed skipping feels like? All you have to do is watch Rise of Skywalker and you can experience it for yourself as the movie blows through plot points and settings at lightspeed pace! JJ Abrams, in his second visit to the Star Wars universe, sets up a lot of great scenes but seems to feel the need to push style over substance in too many of them. Where did they get the materials to make so many Star Destroyers? How does light speed skipping even work? Why did Rey run away from Ren's TIE?

Ep 32Episode XXXII - The Last Jedi, Part 3
Turns out the final hour of The Last Jedi is actually quite good. Also, enjoy a 35 minute explanation of the science involved with the Holdo Maneuver (49:30 - 1:15:53) , by the end of which we've actually convinced ourselves it makes sense in universe.

Ep 31Episode XXXI - The Last Jedi, Part 2
It's finally time for the much anticipated Part 2 of The Last Jedi, and this is where things start to really take a turn for us. Why is Poe making so many bad decisions? Why is Holdo keeping secrets from everyone? Why is Canto Bight a thing and how do they just happen to land in a jail cell with a master hacker who seems to be waiting for them? What even are consistent timelines? All these questions and more, answered (or at least asked), in this weeks episode of Beneath Twin Suns!BECOME A PATRON: https://www.patreon.com/massivebreakdownpodcastDESTINY 2 PODS:PVP: https://destiny-massive-breakdowns.captivate.fm/listenPVE: https://pve-podcast-versus-enemies.captivate.fm/listenCHAT SERVER: https://discord.gg/TheyfeQHOME PAGE: https://destinymassivebreakdowns.com

Ep 30Episode XXX - The Last Jedi, Part 1
Yes, I know I got the episode number wrong in the beginning of the episode. Let's talk about the first third of one of the most controversial Star Wars movies of all time, The Last Jedi! We discuss the tactical mistakes that abound in the opening scene, debate whether or not the decisions made by the characters portray them as unlikable, remark on the beautiful worlds and locations invented by the movie, and disagree on whether Leia should have saved herself with the force.

Ep 29Episode XXIX - The Force Awakens, Part 2
Will Kutch ever talk about Star Killer base? Will Mercules finally find a Star Wars movie he doesn't enjoy? Why did they make such weird decisions with the CGI map? These questions and more, answered this week in the riveting finale of our review of the first sequel movie, Star Wars: The Force Awakens!

Ep 28Episode XXVIII - The Force Awakens, Part 1
Well, we're finally talking about the Sequel Trilogy, for better or for worse. Opinions differ on whether these movies deserve to be held up in the hallowed halls of Star Wars canon, but it is our duty to discuss them none the less. Our overall opinions on the sequels may differ, but we both were able to find some things we really loved and enjoyed about TFA, as well as some area where we feel they could have told a better story. Let's dive in to part one!

Ep 27Episode XXVII - Obi Wan Kenobi Teaser Trailer Breakdown and Show Predictions
The teaser trailer for Obi Wan Kenobi could not have dropped at a better time, saving us from going over to the Dark Side and discussing the sequels for at least one more week! Let's talk about everything that we saw in the short trailer, including the links to other media, what we know about the characters shown, and some new additions to the universe that haven't been seen before! We also take some time to talk about the long development of the Obi Wan show, and what direction we think the story may end up taking. Good to be back and talking about Star Wars again!

Ep 26Episode XXVI - Book of Boba Fett Season One Retrospective
Now that the first season of Book of Boba Fett has wrapped up, let's take a look back at the show as a whole! Overall, there were some great episodes and some not so great episodes, alongside some cool new characters and a handful of characters we really wished we'd gotten to see more of too. What did we love? What could have been done better? How do we grade the show out as a whole now that we've seen every episode and gone back to binge them too? Pull up some bantha fodder and a glass of blue milk, and let's talk about everything to do with Book of Boba Fett season one!

Ep 25Episode XXV - Book of Boba Fett Chapter 7: In the Name of Honor
Book of Boba Fett season 1 has come to an end, and what a conclusion it was! Rancors, droids, mods, and more are all on display in an enjoyable and chaotic climax to the controversial show. Some of our favorite characters come to an end, some are reunited, and the maybe the gang even gets to experience the true meaning of family, but does the season end on a high note or a bit of a letdown? Let's talk about chapter 7!

Ep 24Episode XXIV - Book of Boba Fett Chapter 6: From the Desert Comes a Stranger
Dank farrik what an episode! Book of Boba Fett is back with one of the strongest episodes of live action Star Wars TV we've ever seen! As usual some people are upset about the location of the mouth on an alien, but we're just stoked to see some of the best characters return in a major way. Let's talk about whether emulating the Jedi ideals of the Republic era is a good idea, whether or not our favorite Twi'lek will be seen in the future, and who shot the sheriff (and who also shot the deputy)!

Ep 23Episode XXIII - Book of Boba Fett Chapter 5: Return of the Mandalorian
The fifth episode of Book of Boba Fett is absolutely amazing Star Wars content, but is it really just the first episode of the third season of Mandalorian? Can shows named after a character spend time with other characters? Why does everyone hate filler episodes? Is the Armorer really a little known assistant to Gar Saxon? We discuss all these ideas and more, on this week's Beneath Twin Suns!

Ep 22Episode XXII - Book of Boba Fett Chapter 4: The Gathering Storm
The fourth episode of Book of Boba Fett is a real winner! One of the best flashbacks yet, followed up by some incredible scenes and story telling present-day Tatooine. A handful of familiar characters return, and we get our strongest "Godfather" feelings yet. Let's talk about "The Gathering Storm" and see if the show can't hit the ground running for the second half of the season!

Ep 21Episode XXI - Book of Boba Fett Chapter 3: The Streets of Mos Espa
The third episode of Book of Boba Fett is quite a mixed bag. There are criticisms about action scenes and story beats, but also some really great exposition and fun new characters added to the mix! Let's talk about our thoughts on Streets of Mos Espa and share some opinions on the community's reaction to it as well!

Ep 20Episode XX - Book of Boba Fett Chapter 2: The Tribes of Tatooine
