Star Wars Connection + Daughter Podcasts

@Darth_Awakened @bela.mesecina Complicated but not impossible. They did have unusual spike of business in the dead season. That overlapped with Dubrovnik shoot.

They must have paid a lot to get permission, it is National Park. As @"Darth _Awakend" said, people usually stay on boats, or they stay in hotels(more like private accommodation) but usually just for one night. I never had a chance to go there but it looks like you can't do much things there,except walk or swim, sleep...

Looking at pictures of Kornati, it's somewhat similar to Ahch-To, but there are some major differences as well...

In fact, I think Kornati would be a perfect stand-in for Rakata Prime. So what if it's like, Ahch-To = Tython, Kornati = Rakata Prime?

Assuming that they filmed there, of course. But honestly, if I had to find an earthly place that looks like Rakata Prime, Kornati would come really close.

I bet that what's considered a lot to an average Croatian mover and shaker that issues permits is trifle for LF.

Hmmm, very interesting. I agree. Some islands look like Ahch-To, some more like Rakata Prime. And it's cannon again so it's possible

New episode, haven't listened to it yet.

They never come out and say it but they ship Reylo At one point they call Kylo"magical". There's three female hosts on this episode. They're very knowledgeable about the EU . Letter Never Sent is also discussed. Kylo is obviously Sergei. One host said they expect Kylo to fall in love with Rey by the end of episode viii.

This is the newest one, about Rey's parentage. A lot of info on why Rey is not a Skywalker. We already knew it, but it's good to have it in one place, and some heated debate on Rey Kenobi. Fun stuff.

@BenRey

We are everywhere. *cackles*


Speaking of Letter Never Sent, I haven't seen it yet but it's probably a good idea to check it out.

That's not the newest episode. For some reason there's a delay on the episodes being uploaded to Youtube. They always post to Mixcloud immediately after recording. This is the newest episode:

SWC6: Rey vs Kylo Ren: A Heroine's Journey - SW Episode VIII Spoilers

In this episode, we discuss Rey’s heroine journey in The Force Awakens. Using Joseph Campbell’s Monomyth as a story template, we consider how Rey’s journey mirrors Luke Skywalker’s, as well as how it differs.

We explore how Kylo Ren impacts Rey’s story and how she influences his. We also speculate on how their arcs will continue in Star Wars Episode VIII and the rest of the Sequel Trilogy and what these characters might come to mean to each other.

OMG, they're talking about Rey's sexual awakening

This is the new podcast. Yeah "sexual awakening" and "romance" are mentioned.

Very nice new podcast, guys. It focuses on the Kylo/Rey art works. I very much agree with what they say about the selection process. The production team wouldn't pick something that is diametrically opposed to the direction of the story regardless of how visually stunning it may be, e.g. Rey falling for Snoke (they joked about this at the start ). I don't necessarily see this as part of the marketing strategy, but who knows. Interesting discussion on art in general, references, TFA themes, analysis of key ''Reylo'' scenes, etc. as well. Really good insights on Kylo's complex character.

''One of the images is a new cover for the recent Force Awakens comic and 3 are selections for SW Celebration''
''We've entitled this podcast ''Rey and Kylo: longing, awakening, tumultuous love and the power of the light''
''He is letting some of this light in and it is starting to illuminate him as well''
''a temptation to Rey'', ''Byronic hero'', ''stunning'', ''the fallen angel in the FA'' (Kylo)
''I won't be seduced'' = foreshadowing

Honestly, this is the best podcast out there, the only one that discusses everything of importance in depth. Those are our people.

Wow I always enjoy these podcasts...always full of insightful and intelligent discussion...

I am behind on this podcast but I enjoyed the one about ach-to. I can't wait to listen to all of them.

This is about Kylo's redemption. Not so much about the end result or moral implications, more about the signs and foreshadowing that mean that Kylo will eventually embrace the light.

If anyone is in a hurry or doesn't want to listen to the whole thing, this part has an interesting discussion about Rey as a missing piece of the map and Starkiller Base as a metaphor for Kylo, or the Sun and Son.

Here is a three part special about Rey and Kylo related art work selected for the Star Wars Celebration Europe Art show....

Call To The Light


Rey's Vision


Takodana Abduction

Ugh, I am so behind because of RL, but these are fab! I am assembling furniture that I got in the mail and I have this running in the background, lol. Will come back later with some thoughts.

This is what I call good sith!


They're talking about Ben and Rey as Adam and Eve, considering that sw has religious themes all over the trilogies

Love the SWC Trio ladies and all of their brilliant analytical Reylo theories. Each installment just leaves me all smiles

Our platform is messing up YouTube embedded vids. Here are the two most recent episodes:

Rey and Kylo Ren as Adam and Eve: Return to Jedi Eden (Part I - NSFW)
The "Kylo Ren is a delicious and juicy apple tempting Rey's Adam" discussion in this one is not to be missed. XD

Finn's Hero Journey: From Stormtrooper to Big Deal
Great discussion about Finn. Really liked the angle of whether or not Finn is FS/Jedi material vs new leader in the Resistance.

Really awesome, fun analysis.
