Episode Synopsis

Your hosts -- Aaron Svoboda (@Aaron_Svoboda), Alfredo Narvaez (@NOLA_Fredo) and David Gladow (@davegladow) -- do their first deep dive on Star Wars Episode IX: The Rise of Skywalker. For this first discussion, they talk about how polarized opinions seem to be about the movie and why that might be. Why did the people who loved it love it so much, and why did others react SO negatively? Are there objective criticisms that have merit? What are the strengths and weaknesses of the movie? Could problems have been fixed? And is it okay to simply like the movie and neither love nor hate it?
