For Genuine Chit-Chat’s 75th episode, Mike is joined by Scott of the 20th Century Geek podcast and Chris & Dave from the Comics In Motion & VHS Strikes Back podcasts for a collaborative special for the build up to The Rise Of Skywalker. An in-depth look at A New Hope can be found on both Comics In Motion & VHS Strikes Back’s feeds while our collective thoughts on the original & prequel trilogies will be on 20th Century Geek’s feed in the coming days.

In this chat in particular, the four of them discuss their thoughts on Episodes 7 & 8 (The Force Awakens & The Last Jedi), regarding plot details, characters, how they compare to the previous 6 movies in the Skywalker Saga, which of the two movies they each prefer, some of the best & worst parts of the new trilogy and many more things! There will be major spoilers for both The Force Awakens & The Last Jedi, so be sure to watch those if you haven’t already!

Next week part 2 will be released where the guys speculate on what they believe is to come in Episode IX including “Bendemption” (if Kylo Ren will return to the light), how Palpatine will be involved, what will happen to Leia, Rey and much more! As well as speculation they talk about what they hope to find in the movie, how they think it’ll compare to the previous movies both in and out of the sequel trilogy, lightsaber battles, crazy theories and enough laughs to shake the hair off a bantha!
