Caitlin and Charlotte are excited to discuss all the bonus features on the Blu-Ray release of Star Wars: The Last Jedi. To begin, they give a review of how these bonus features stack up against previous Star Wars films. In part one, they discuss the feature-length documentary “The Director and the Jedi,” and the respect they have for Rian Johnson, as well as the controversy surrounding Mark Hamill. In part two, they discuss the deleted scenes. In part three, they talk about extrapolated quotes from Rian Johnson’s audio commentary of the film. Finally, Charlotte gives a brief review of the Music-Only version of the film.

Charlotte and Caitlin’s series where they discuss the latest episode of Star Wars: Rebels returns with a discussion on “In the Name of the Rebellion,” a two-part episode. Caitlin is pretty impressive with her 20-second recap, and both Caitlin and Charlotte give their 2 highs and 1 low of the episode. Then, they discuss story: where are we in the Rebellion? What themes prevailed and why was this episode such a success? What do we make of choosing certain episodes to be one hour? Next, they discuss characters: Ezra, Ezra + Sabine, Saw, and Kanan. This and so much more on the latest episode of Fulcrum Files!

Charlotte and Caitlin fangirl over the newest full-length trailer for Star Wars: The Last Jedi by giving their near-immediate reactions and commentary in a one-shot format. They discuss fandom pandemonium, whether That Scene is a flashback, Kylo’s choices, Rey’s decisions, and Finn’s epic fight. The try to answer: what’s up with Luke? Are these scenes really just mashed together? What is Lucasfilm preparing us for? All this and more on this episode of Skytalkers.
