By Star Wars

A Star Wars podcast that celebrates characters & stories in Canon and Legends, including films, TV shows, games, and more. We love Star Wars, but also have a good time poking fun at & criticizing some of the sillier aspects of our favorite galaxy far, far away. Whatever your favorite part of Star Wars is, we've got some thoughts on it. If you want to have a great time talking about Star Wars and maybe even learn something new, grab a seat at The Canon Cantina.

The Mandalorian Season One: Chapters 6 & 7

The Mandalorian Season One: Chapters 6 & 7

Season 1 of the Canon Cantina was focused on exploring the journey of Luke Skywalker through both Canon and Legends materials. We sought to explore the question "who IS Luke Skywalker?" by comparing the two different storylines in the time leading up to Episode IX. Now that the Skywalker Saga is complete, we have expanded the scope of the show beyond Luke Skywalker. Everything after our Force Awakens-style soft reboot can be found in Season 2. Cheers, and may the Force be with you!

___________________________________

Need a break from the exhausting Rise of Skywalker discourse online? Well we've got just the thing, right in time for the season finale! We recorded this the day before Rise of Skywalker came out, and we are super excited for Chapter 8 of The Mandalorian to come out tomorrow!

Technology & travel issues kept us from getting this up on Friday, but these are our initial thoughts of Episode IX recorded late on Thursday evening. We have each seen it at least once since recording this, so some thoughts have already changed, but we wanted you to hear our adrenaline-fueled reactions. One thing is for sure: we'll be talking about Rise of Skywalker for a long time.

Rise of Skywalker Final Trailer Reactions

Rise of Skywalker Final Trailer Reactions

Season 1 of the Canon Cantina was focused on exploring the journey of Luke Skywalker through both Canon and Legends materials. We sought to explore the question "who IS Luke Skywalker?" by comparing the two different storylines in the time leading up to Episode IX. Now that the Skywalker Saga is complete, we have expanded the scope of the show beyond Luke Skywalker. Everything after our Force Awakens-style soft reboot can be found in Season 2. Cheers, and may the Force be with you!

___________________________________

Apologies for the delay on this - Mike was at a conference when the trailer dropped, and the hotel Wifi fought the recording & editing process the entire time. 


Just taking one last look...

___________________________________

In this week's episode we explore another of Luke's adventures between Return of the Jedi & The Force Awakens. It's... a weird one. Hot takes fly from all angles as we talk about the news surrounding Kevin Feige and the future of Star Wars, go down a massive rabbit hole about how fandom works, and engage in some Rise of Skywalker speculation.

Join Star Wars fanatics, Mike and Jesse each episode as we breakdown   the character & development of Luke Skywalker  throughout both Legends  and the Disney canon. We’ll do our best to  connect the dots of Luke’s  adventures through Legends/the old Expanded  Universe to find out how he  differs from the current canon hero, and  debate which version would  make The Last Jedi better.

___________________________________

This is something we've wanted to revisit as soon as we heard Palpatine's laugh at the end of the Celebration Rise of Skywalker trailer. We analyze the plot of Dark Empire & the footage from the 2 trailers so far and look for possible connections or ways that Rise of Skywalker may make some Legends canon again. December 19 will probably prove that we were wrong about everything, but it was fun speculation & we have some good ideas for how parts of Dark Empire could appear in the film. Announcing #100DaysofSkywalker, a 100 day celebration & countdown to Episode IX! We're sharing an important moment of the Skywalker Saga from canon sources every day until Rise of Skywalker comes out on December 19. Find our posts @TheCanonCantina on Twitter, Facebook, and Instagram and be sure to share your 100 favorite Skywalker Saga moments! _________________

___________________________________

The news & trailers out of D23 were no less than EPIC! Mike & Jesse hit all of the news from Disney+ (The Mandalorian, Cassian, Clone Wars, Kenobi), Galaxy's Edge, and the Rise of Skywalker. We speculate, Jesse is all in on Ewan, Mike says something dumb about Kylo Ren, and we don't know how we can possibly wait until November for all of this new stuff to come out.

___________________________________

This week we go back to Legends and talk about the story that's the butt of a lot of jokes... The Crystal Star. Mike surprisingly has the most to say about this one, and the parts that you remember (Wyrwulfs lol) don't even begin to scratch the surface of the weirdness present in this story. Plus it ties in to the awesome Jedi Outcast?!?!? We hope you enjoy this wild ride as much as we did. After breaking the story down we spend some time talking games at the Dejarik Table. Jesse previews Republic and Separatist factions in Legion, and Mike gives his first impressions of Outer Rim. ____________________________

___________________________________

We continue our hot streak of Marvel Comics arcs and jump right into the thrilling "Hope Dies." We really enjoyed this arc about building the Rebel fleet that we see in Return of the Jedi. We had some technical & toddler issues while recording this one, so no extra topics this time. Our next episode tackles the dreaded Legends pariah... The Crystal Star!

Production note: this episode was recorded 6 or 7 weeks ago, and was bumped from our release schedule due to Celebration putting us in a time crunch. We've removed all of the parts of this episode that are no longer relevant now that Celebration is over. So it's a little short, but this is still a good intro to "The Callista Trilogy" that we'll be doing for the next few weeks! Cheers, and MTFBWY!

Remembering Peter Mayhew

Remembering Peter Mayhew

Season 1 of the Canon Cantina was focused on exploring the journey of Luke Skywalker through both Canon and Legends materials. We sought to explore the question "who IS Luke Skywalker?" by comparing the two different storylines in the time leading up to Episode IX. Now that the Skywalker Saga is complete, we have expanded the scope of the show beyond Luke Skywalker. Everything after our Force Awakens-style soft reboot can be found in Season 2. Cheers, and may the Force be with you!

Wait, I thought all the news happened at Celebration, not after.... This week we decided to spend an entire episode talking about all of the news that has come out since Celebration ended! We also spend some time mourning the loss of Peter Mayhew, and celebrating our favorite Chewbacca moments. Our next episode will be a return to Legends content with "Children of the Jedi," available later this week! ____________________________
