!["Solo: A Star Wars Story" REVIEW and In-Depth DISCUSSION!! [Spoilers!]](/img/1.gif)
No Star Wars book has made me feel like I’m reading a movie like Light of the Jedi did. I love that book!
yeah LotJ to me is a perfect screen play. The best novel imo is The Rising Storm
Did you get to Rising Storm yet? I can't wait for them to get to it, I just finished today and oh my gosh
I think it definitely could’ve been a movie for sure. Maybe one day they adapt it into the a movie. Probably not but it would be cool to see
Excited to hear your thoughts on Rising Storm in the future, but hopefully you guys will also cover some of the in between books like Into the Dark and The High Republic comics
The disaster has to be one of my favorite moments in star wars ever. The descriptions of the force and how the jedi are communicating and dealing with it in their own way was amazing
High Republic is a sick series so far! Hope y'all enjoy them.
There are some things that were discussed in this episode that solidifies that Erick and Aaron are just cool and nice people and role model Star Wars fans.
Love you guys!
Please never stop doing these!! Makes my day whenever y'all do one!! Loved it :)

36:25 that's kinda interesting saying Kota was the possible inspiration for Kanan and, ironically, Sam Witwer blinded them both
I think Badonkagonks once a month with a shorter 30-minute segment biweekly for book discussions would work.
Mini-gonk every two weeks; 30 minute book review, and Badonkagonk every four weeks.
In regards to the Obi-Wan discussion around the midpoint of the show, I just finished the book, Padawan, recently and figured I'd give some context. He is a teenager during this story and is in a point of his life where he is kind of questioning where he fits in and if he even has a future in the Jedi Order. He goes on a mission and ends up having to stay with this group of people mostly around his age for several days. Two of these people are in a relationship and it gets Obi-wan thinking of what his life would be like if he wasn't a Jedi and stayed on this planet and had a relationship with someone there. He specifically uses the word 'anyone' rather than just talking about the females. He also admits to not really having those feelings much before so is obviously confused/not sure about it. It's a 2-3 sentence section in the first half of the book and then another 2-3 sentence section a couple chapters later when he is more comfortable with the people there.
Regardless of that though, I don't see what the problem is. Obi-wan has never been stated to be straight. And, if he was non-straight, is there something wrong with that?
I want more of this podcast so badly
Regarding your discussion on Obi-Wan's age, I thought this excerpt from the book "Kenobi" helped explain it as well. This is from a conversation on Tattoine.
“Broon was a great holovid actor when I was a kid. My mother loved him. Anyway, he came to Mos Espa for some race story he was acting in, and he caught the bug. Fell in love with the desert. The guy was raised in total privilege, and he sets eyes on the Jundland Wastes and becomes obsessed. So Broon buys a dump out here-no offense-and tells people he’s doing research on his own production, a desert epic. And off he goes. Showed up in Bestine six months later-looking twenty years older. The suns and the wind ripped him up something awful. It looked like someone’d taken a plastorch to his face. His own agent didn’t recognize him, and his studio wanted nothing to do with him.” She pointed to the eopie, munching away, its head under the tarp now covering the trough. “Take it from Rooh. Keep your hood on, or you’ll dry out like a sack of gorrmillet.”
i still catch myself playing the jedi knight 2 and 3 games (jedi outcast and jedi academy) fairly often, definitely my most revisited games in the last, say, 10 years or so
It would be interesting to see both of you trying out the tabletop game Star Wars: Legion. While the game mechanics are nice, I find that people enjoy the game more when they're geeking out about playing with their favorite Star Wars characters. Could be a fun special episode if you bought a discounted two player starter set online (or both of them for the four main factions) and showed everyone your adventure as you're learning the game.
Burryaga the best
Hope you guys cover "Thrawn" one day. It's absoloutly amazing.
I enjoyed your review and discussion. I totally missed the San Tekka thing.
Just bought KOTOR on my seriesX and I’m gonna buy more old SW games on it. Can’t wait!!!!
Eric, if you ever decide to try SWTOR, I highly recommend either the Imperial Agent storyline or Sith Warrior storyline (you can play light side or grey side on both if you want!). Those two storylines are the best IMO with Imperial Agent a league above all others.
Imperial Agent is the best when you play after all earlier class. Personaly I think Jedi Knight is the best class for beggining because its the most Star wars like
Also, there is supposed to be a canon novel coming out in March called Jedi: Battle Scars which follows Cal Kestis and I think is setting up or related to the next Jedi Fallen Order video game.
I love seeing you guys cover the High Republic, it has become my favorite era of Star Wars honestly, i would love to see you guys cover all the books and comics but i can see it be a bit too much so i will say if you commit to reading the story of this era read all the Adult and YA novels (do not skip the YA's please!)
Anyway thank you to bring this content and awesome discussions about Star Wars :)
Even some of the "middle grade" like A Test of Courage.
The main marvel series is very good, and if u want some visualizzation of the era and the characters is perfect.
@@xTehOwn Oh for sure, i would always recommend reading everything in the era, as i did, but i'm not sure they'll do it for the podcast so i at least hope they read the YA's and not just Rising Storm and Fallen Star next.
@@pommyddddd yeah Into The Dark is a must for sure before read TRS
@@xTehOwn yeah and i would say the same for Out of the Shadows before Fallen Star and Midnight Horizon after (which is my favorite btw)
@@pommyddddd Yeah Out Of The Shadows is good (Reath and Vernestra, 2 of my favs jedi), but I still have to read both Fallen Star and Midnignt Horizon, i am waiting to read first the script version of the audiobook about Lourna Dee and some comics before the big final of phase 1.
They announced a new book called Battle Scars. It takes place between Jedi Fallen Order and Jedi Survivor. Definitely gotta do a book review before the game comes our!
For those who want visuals, all three adult High Republic novels also have children's book adaptations told from the perspective of Burryaga which are full of illustrations of scenes of the novels, making them almost like mini art books for each novel. The one for Light of the Jedi is called The Great Jedi Rescue. The one for The Rising Storm is called Showdown at the Fair. And the one for The Fallen Star is called The Battle for Starlight. They're fun little books and it's so great to actually get to see these scenes. Aside from those, the various High Republic comic series aren't adaptations of the novels, but reading them will really help you to visualize this era and many of its characters. The High Republic is already one of my favorite Star Wars stories of all time, so I'm excited to see other people getting into it! I just finished reading Light of the Jedi for my fourth time lol. (The Rising Storm might be my favorite Star Wars novel of all time!)
Unpopular Opinion: My favorite Star Wars games are The Force Unleashed II & Battlefront 2015. I also really love Podracer, Lego The Skywalker Saga, and Galaxies.
Obi-Wan was the first game I played for Xbox. Before that, all I had was N64. You can imagine how much my mind was blown.
I like how literally nothing Aaron said about the ages of Obi Wan, McGregor, and Guinness' ages made sense
Love hearing more people get into THR! It's been my favorite thing in Star Wars lately. The way the authors are weaving threads between their individual stories makes it even more rewarding the more you read. 😀
There's a lot to keep up with but I strongly recommend checking out at least the marvel comics by Cavan Scott alongside the adult novels for a much richer experience
For me:
5: Battlefront 2 (ps2)
4: Jedi Knight, Jedi Academy
3: Jedi:Fallen Order
2: Kotor
1: Kotor 2 (with the Restored Content Mod)
The second adult Novel is even better in my opinion. I hope you guys do all the stuff including comics in order it adds soooo much more!
On another note, I never thought of it but the zantecka guy is probably who Luke talked to about finding the Sith Planet and learned about the Sith Wayfinder. Which makes more sense of it all in my head.
We need more gonk!!!
No timestamps?
im gonna start tryhing to catch these live so i can chat. Ive been reading these books on release and have had no one to talk to them about!. They are just so damn good. havent had one i didnt like
Hell ya!
19:02 Shame it'll never come out
The force sensitive clone plot for Battlefront 3 actually still exists! It's in a DS game called Elite Squadron and it's actually really solid.
My favorite game was star wars galactic battle ground for the pc loved it
I'm loving the high republic
I highly suggest to read at least Into The Dark and the first arc of the marvel THR comic series before reading The Rising Storm, that introduce some new type (and important) villains and chars.
I agree. Of all the extras betwean Light of the Jedi and The Rising Storm, Into the Dark is the most important to the story.
If possible, I would love to see Aaron play through KOTOR 1 and 2. The games are so amazing and nostalgic, it would be cool to see somebody from Blind Wave do a walkthrough or stream of it.
id highly recommend the certain point of view books
this BlindWaves first YT premiere?
Maybe
So far the past 2 Star Wars podcast were too
There was a 2D SW that I vaguely remember from my child hood. It had something to do with being a Republic LAAT Gunship and your basically just fly forwards, shoot at Septatist bases, and you could even land troops on said bases and they’d attack it from the inside and then you’d take them to the next one. It was fun as hell and I wish I could remember it. I also hope it’s not some childhood fantasy because I remember playing it at my Dad’s house as a kid and it had its own unique controller with the few buttons and one analog stick. Maybe someone else will know what I’m referring to😂🤞
my favorite star wars game is easily Fallen Order. I absolutely love that game.
I already started Rising Storm but looking forward to Rebel Rising soon!
Thank God for audible
Jedi outcast was so fun as a kid though
You can play Star Wars Episode 3 game on Xbox with back compatibility
Rogue Squadron 2, Jedi: Fallen Order, Episode I: Racer, Knights of the Old Republic, and Force Unleashed are definitely in my top 5 for Star Wars games.
Took me too long to realize they were saying KOTOR and not Co-Tour
I think my top 5 Star Wars games would be
5. Rogue Squadron III
4. Republic Commando
3. Battlefront (Classic)
2. Battlefront II (New)
1. Empire at War
And I'm so excited to see you guys getting into High Republic. It has quickly become one of my favorite Star Wars eras.
I adore Fallen Order, Republic Commando, and the old Battlefront 2, but one of my favorite SW games is probably an unprecedented choice, but I swear it doesn’t get NEARLY the love it deserves. But I was such a big fan of Empire At War (Zann Consortium expansion included) growing up. I played that game near religiously as a kid lol.
Also, that Ewan/Alec segment was glorious lol. Well done Aaron.
Anybody remember Battle for Naboo. Whilst I love fallen order, KOTOR, force unleased, Republic Commando (all the classics) that one was the one I played most as a kid.
Top 5 SW games:
Jedi Outcast
Kotor 2
X-Wing Alliance
Jedi Knight
Kotor
Honorable mentions go to Galactic Battlegrounds (the hours I put into that), Republic Commando, Jedi Power Battles, the old Battlefronts.
I didn't dig Force Unleashed's at all, especially the second one is just atrocious. However even that can't hold a candle to the worst Star Wars game ever, Xbox's OBI-WAN
42:55 well, very few now, but still some, but don't ask Star Trek fans about how many video games there were recently ;) (or Stargate fans, or Babylon 5 fans :)). Star Wars is stil has at least something :).
And about best Star Wars games, I am old as f...ehm, so mine best of are Dark Forces and Dark Forces 2 (which also had a great audio dramatization that I can't recommend enough), followed by Tie Fighter (well, the whole X-Wing series - X-WING, Tie Fighter, X-Wing vs. Tie Fighter and of course X-Wing Alliance), then Knights of the Old Republic 2 (but I agree that first Kotor had the best Star Wars like revelation in its story :)) and I would add to the top games I played also Star Wars: Empire at War.
I also read my books without the cover
would love to see all 4 of you playing swtor together......also why is there no mention of empire at war?
