The Bad Batch is out and we haven't watched it yet. The three of us didn't realize it was on. Is the excitement for Star Wars dwindling? Is it on it's way back? Can The Acolyte, Skeleton Crew, Favreau's movie and the new Rey movie get the hype back? Where does Star Wars land with you right now?
Speaking of big Sci-Fi fantasy Dune 2 comes out March 1 and Kristian has seen it! Is the hype real and why is it so special? Heading back to Star Wars, Acadamey Award nominee Angela Basett is rumored tohave taken a meeting with Lucasfilm, will she appear in a glaxy far far away and former Star Wars director Garreth Edwards seems to be the next director to helm The Jurassic Park series. Good choice? This and more on today's Big Thing with Kristian, Mike and Steph.
