Luke Skywalker is captured by an Imperial Commander, some A-Wing pilots reflect on their past before the Battle of Endor, Ackbar offers some thoughts mid-battle, and a stormtrooper struggles with her conscience in this collection of stories from From a Certain Point of View: Return of the Jedi.
We are continuing to celebrate the 40th anniversary of Return of the Jedi with our discussion of another batch of stories from From a Certain Point of View: Return of the Jedi. This time, the stories feature individuals involved on the ground on Endor and in the space above during the Battle of Endor. Ever wonder about the Imperial Commander that handed Luke Skywalker over to Darth Vader? If so, his story is presented in this collection. A couple of A-Wing pilots reflect on their past before meeting their fate in the Battle of Endor. Plus, Ackbar contemplates who the Rebellion is fighting for as the battle begins.
In this fully armed and operational episode of Podcast Stardust, we discuss:
- The resentment towards the Jedi harbored by the Imperial Commander that captured Luke Skywalker on Endor,
- Ackbar contemplating his command and what the Rebellion fights for during the Battle of Endor,
- What changed with Green Leader that brought him to the Rebellion and the climactic battle with the Empire,
- The loss of innocence and struggle of conscience of one stormtrooper on Endor, and
- The history and fate of Red Three at the Battle of Endor.
