We get back into the Halloween spirit with a discussion of LEGO Star Wars Terrifying Tales. Can Poe Dameron and BB-8 survive Darth Vader’s castle?
LEGO is back with its own brand of Star Wars humor. This time the special is a celebration of Halloween. When Poe Dameron and BB-8 make a forced landing on Mustafar, they find Darth Vader’s castle under the management of Grabala the Hutt as he prepares to convert the fortress into a themed hotel. Evil is afoot though, and Poe, BB-8 and their new friend Dean must survive the traps of the castle as Vader’s old assistant, Vaneé, tells spooky stories. Join us as we explore the fun and spookiness of LEGO Star Wars Terrifying Tales.
On this fully armed and operational episode, we discuss:
- Darth Vader giving Emperor Palpatine a tour of the castle,
- Poe Dameron’s arrival on Mustafar,
- The child point of view character, Dean,
- The Lost Boys inspired story featuring Christian Slater’s voice work,
- “The Dueling Monstrosities” fight between Darth Maul and General Grievous,
- Luke’s alternative, what if?, story after making wishes on the “Wookiee’s Paw,” and
- The escape from Vader’s castle.
