We are rebroadcasting episode 645 as our The Clone Wars re-watch continues. This episode pays tribute to Akira Kurosawa as the Jedi teach a village to defend themselves.
Each week on Podcast Stardust, we feature another episode of The Clone Wars. At the beginning of last week, we discussed “Cat and Mouse.” That would bring us to episode seventeen of season two, which is “Bounty Hunters.” However, we have previously discussed this episode on Podcast Stardust as part of our Hondo Ohnaka series. Therefore, we are going to re-air episode 645 as a bonus episode this week before turning to episode eighteen of season two, which is famously known as “The Zillo Beast.” Thanks for listening and your support.
In this fully armed and operational episode, we discuss:
- Anakin, Ahsoka, and Obi-Wan’s crash landing on Felucia,
- The bounty hunters appearing in this episode,
- How this episode pays tribute to The Seven Samurai and Akira Kurosawa,
- The voice of Embo,
- How the Jedi train the villagers to train themselves,
- Our favorite Hondo quotes from the episode, and
- Whether Hondo was acting with any honor in this episode.
Thanks for joining us for another episode. Please subscribe wherever you listen to podcasts and spread the word to all of your Star Wars friends. May the Force be with you!
