Summary

Join Children of the Watch for continued discussion of one of the most beloved films of all time: The Empire Strikes Back. After concluding our Acolyte coverage, we've decided to revisit the Star Wars Original Trilogy, breaking down the stories, characters, themes, and more. This week, we're doing our second lore connections episode to bridge the gap between movies! We'll be talking about all the major events that happen in canon Star Wars comics, books, etc. off-screen between The Empire Strikes Back and Return of the Jedi. We're talking War of the Bounty Hunters, Qi'ra and Crimson Dawn, and more.

Plus, we will also spend some time talking about news and developments concerning Skeleton Crew and The Mandalorian & Grogu, plus what the Star Wars landscape looks like in the near future.

Next month, we move on to Return of the Jedi!
