We continued our “special edition” discussion on this week’s WhoDatJedi podcast, looking at “The Empire Strikes Back” specifically.
On this, the 85th episode of the WhoDatJedi podcast, your hosts — Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) — continue their deeper dive into the Star Wars special editions by talking about the 1997 re-release of “The Empire Strikes Back.” They provide their thoughts on all of the specific changes in the movie, but they also talk a little about gatekeeping and how fans’ attachment to their own experiences can be limiting to others. The other big topic of the week is the Galactic Starcruiser hotel at Disney, its absurd pricing, and whether the whole idea seems flawed.
