It’s time to take a closer look at The Last Jedi, its storytelling, and its impacts on fandom. Fangirls Going Rogue Facebook page admin and all-around smart guy Adjua Adama joins Tricia Barr, Teresa Delgado, and Sarah Woloski to discuss comparisons to Roman and African history as well as the theme of failure.

First though, we take a look at the news:

Ron Howard teases Solo: A Star Wars Story
Star Wars at the Golden Globes
Dave Filoni teases Star Wars Rebels scoring session
The Last Jedi box office numbers (via Box Office Mojo)
Star Wars Virtual Half-Marathon from RunDisney

Our character discussion dives into Vice Admiral Amilyn Holdo. How does she compare to what we see in Leia: Princess of Alderaan? Was Poe justified in taking a stand? Why did the farewell scene with Leia punch us in the gut?
