Timonthy Zahn recently shared some thoughts on Grand Admiral Thrawn that inspired a discussion about the Thrawn’s past, present, and future in this week’s news.
After the deluge of Star Wars news from Star Wars Celebration, the news cycle has settled down and become very quiet. However, there are a few stories that are worth mentioning. Timothy Zahn recently shared some thoughts on Grand Admiral Thrawn that sparks a conversation about the character in this episode. Also, Carrie Fisher is getting her star on the Hollywood Walk of Fame. Finally, Rachel Weisz’s discussion of her daughter’s obsession with Star Wars brings up memories of introducing Star Wars to our children.
In this fully armed and operational episode, we discuss:
- Timothy Zahn’s thoughts on what makes Thrawn work as a character,
- The possibility of future Thrawn stories set between Rebels and Ahsoka,
- Carrie Fisher’s posthumous reception of a star on the Walk of Fame,
- Rachel Weisz on telling her daughter “Star Wars is broken,” and
- Our anticipation for Star Wars Jedi: Survivor.
