The Resistance Broadcast: Episode 1!

The Resistance BroadcastComing to you from the far reaches beyond the outer rim, Star Wars 7 News proudly presents the first episode The Resistance Broadcast. In the coming weeks and months we will be bringing you in depth discussion of all things Star Wars. We’ll dive deep into film news and spoilers, TV, Comics, toys, and anything else Lucasfilm can dream up. With our esteemed host Darth Lexor Kai and a rotating list of knowledgeable contributors, we’ll debate popular theories from the Cantina, talk about recent breaking Star Wars news, and maybe even break some news ourselves.

 

 

The first episode has a great lineup of content and contributors. Darth Lexor Kai discusses the announcements of D23 with Catina Comic Guy Kyle and yours truly, Rebo. But stay tuned for the second half where Cantina staff members Pomojema and BlueStreaking talk about last week’s big leaked image of Luke Skywalker and then break some news with a Resistance Broadcast exclusive as they discuss information SW7News has obtained on the appearance of an as yet unseen character from The Force Awakens! (from 29:10 min.)

In the meantime, with the help of our friend Eli Hyder (Instagram, YouTube), a professional artist/creator from CA, dying to work within the Star Wars Universe, who has worked on films, short films, graphic novels amongst other exciting projects, here’s a rough sketch of Max von Sydow’s character from The Force Awakens. He is definitely not a cyborg. 🙂

      he sounds like one of those who overcome severe stuttering by kind of “singing” when they talk. Its weird but some can trick the brain that way.

      i could be totally wrong though and he just has a goofy way of talking 🙂

        Pretty sure it’s me. I was sort of shocked by the way my intonation goes up at the end of each sentence. Never noticed that about myself. Something to work on.

          The comment was by no means intended to be mean-spirited…in fact I feel really bad for for mentioning it. Just something I found to be humorous, albeit a bit distracting. I feel like a jerk now.

    How spoiler heavy will these episodes be? I don’t want plot spoilers as much as possible, discussing characters looks, ships, speculation is cool but not heavy spoiler discussion.

    Should I stay away?

    Where did they say Rogue One takes place 5 years before A New Hope? That would place it exactly around the time frame of SW Rebels. From what I’ve heard so far, it was just stated that it takes place before ANH without a specific timeframe. In fact, if they are stealing the Death Star plans that would suggest it takes place weeks, if not days, before ANH.

      It should end about one hyperspace jump before A New Hope.

    Part of them mystique of Star Wars was that I was allowed to imagine what other worlds and events existed in the same universe as Luke Skywalker and friends. Now it is being drawn out for me… I don’t give a flying fuck about all of this non-sense. Just give me episode 7 and the rest will follow. Starting to get worried about the future of Star Wars. Complacency will set it – it always does. Disney, heed the warning of the episode IV novelization: But as often happens when wealth and power pass beyond the admirable and attain the awesome, there appear those evil ones with greed to match.

    Seeing that photo above, I still don`t understand why they chose a police biker look, for the rebel trooper uniform. The empire/first order get such cool looking armored uniform designs, but the rebels got a police biker uniform. There`s a chance to make up for this in TFA hopefully. The resistance would surely have enough resources now, enough to design some cool looking uniforms for their fighters to wear. Maybe even lightly armored.

    • August 20, 2015 at 11:08 pm
      Permalink

      I agree, in some ways. I used to think these uniforms were the worst, but over time my feelings have changed as I now think they give off such a classic 70s Star Wars vibe. The helmet is bulky and ugly, sure. But that shape has come to remind me of the first scene in the films and universe I love. Plus, come on, they are Rebel nerds!! If they looked cooler than the empire, no one would fear the Empire.

      I think he’s Owen Lars. There was never any definitive confirmation that he was one of the charred bodies. Perhaps he had gone to look for Luke, and the bodies were Beru and, I dunno, a neighbour who had come to visit. Perhaps Owen was then captured and ended up in an imperial prison somewhere, it’s not a huge storytelling leap.

      He fits the profile age wise – MVS is 85 – so if the character is the same age he’d have been about 50 during ROTJ, about 45 during ANH, 26 during ROTS and about 23/24 during AOTC – all of that fit’s with the character of Owen Lars and with the rumour that he’s a PT character.

      If you want to surprise people with this reveal then it makes sense that you go for a character, that because he’s assumed dead, most people won’t really consider.

      Nah, that has been up on the Disney Wiki for awhile now (a month or more). I tried to see if it was mentioned anywhere and stuck it in a fresh thread to get the info out.

        Okay guys. Drat. Well, interesting it has been up on the Disney Wiki for so long…

        Is that a Wiki everyone can edit? Is it moderated by Disney staff?

        Interesting that it is a mix of the alleged codename (“Vicar”) and the apparent real name (Montross).

    Here is a idea why don’t you post the Max Von Sydow image after the podcast instead of giving it to a artist.

    If that does not work post it on another site such as 4chan/Reddit/MillenniumFalcon.com

    Great podcast. Lots of good content. I hate to make someone feel self-conscious, because we all have our own unique peculiarities, whether it’s in how we speak or whatever, but to be completely forthright – I found that intonation to be very very distracting. Like, I couldn’t focus on the podcast after awhile and just kept hearing that cadence and intonation. If that’s how you speak, that’s how you speak. I’m sure people are familiar with Diane Rehm, one of the biggest radio interviewers around. Her voice is very idiosyncratic and people often find it impossible to listen to. I felt the same way when I first listened to her, but eventually got over it and found that uniqueness interesting. I dunno. Maybe I’d get used to this too. Just wanted to comment on it because it really stood out to me.
