#TBT Episode 6- The Star Wars Sequel Trilogy

•

Sadly no new episode this week folks.... looks like we're going to have to repackage the some old stuff and change a few things slightly and pass it off as an entirely new thing. But no one would ever try and do that. No gigantic company that has a mouse for a mascot would even dare to spend billions of dollars on a beloved franchise, try and change a few characters names and genders and attempt to recapture the magic of days gone past and produce something that people really enjoyed until they started to give it some critical thought and realize that they've seen something like that before.


NAY! Nor would same gigantic corporate then take same beloved franchise that they gave what some people would call "a soft reboot" of old material and made a new thing, and then to follow it up actually make something that is new and interesting! That second attempt surely wouldn't turn out to be perhaps the best entry in beloved franchise that has been around for a while, but makes some angry people on the internet upset would they?


Nor would said gigantic corporation then actually make the foolish mistake of listening to angry people on the internet and then follow up a great idea with a bunch of terrible bad ideas, fire multiple film directors, bring back the first director and then scour Reddit for some weird fan theories, throw all of that in a blender and make a third installment in a trilogy. NO ONE WOULD BE CRAZY ENOUGH TO DO THAT RIGHT?


Anyways, sorry there's no new episode this week and we couldn't think of a good analogy so we just cut together our reviews of the Star Wars Sequel Trilogy. Hope you guys enjoy!

  • 279- Obsession

    01:45:58|
    This week on Almost Accurate: Marvel’s Wolverine isn’t doing so hot critically and with the fans, possibly a reflection on the general sentiment of Sony and PlayStation at the moment Hideo Kojima is thriving in his post breakup with Sony and is happy to trot out some more Hollywood actors in his new partnership with Xbox Resident Evil is scroing quite well on Rotten Tomatoes The boys are delving deep into the new Gen Z sensation Obsession. Honestly, it’s good that good movies are coming out. We love to not be serious when we’re doing this podcast, but at the end of the day we love actually watching and talking about movies that are good, and Obsession gives us hope for the new generation, and the movie industry as a whole. We’ve been through some fallow periods, and hopefully we can read a harvest of creativity and a bit of originality in the future. All of this and more on this week’s episode of Almost Accurate!
