In part five of our series celebrating Revenge of the Sith, the war comes to the wookiees and Kashyyyk, Anakin says goodbye to Obi-Wan, and Obi-Wan confronts General Grievous.
Our series celebrating the 20th anniversary of Revenge of the Sith continues in this episode of Podcast Stardust. This segment of the movie bring us to nearly the half-way point of the film. Obi-Wan gets his assignment to track down and destroy General Grievous. But first, he and Anakin have a heartfelt conversation as they say their goodbyes. Also, this portion of Revenge of the Sith gives Star Wars fans their first canonical look at Kashyyyk, the wookiee home world. Plus, how could we forget the fight between General Grievous and Obi-Wan Kenobi? There is a lot to like in this segment of Revenge of the Sith, and we are ready to break it down in this episode of the podcast.
Alan Zaugg from Idiot’s Array joins us for this discussion.
