Assembly of Geeks: Star Wars Discussion with Dan Zehr

The latest episode of Assembly of Geeks is live.

Dan Zehr (Professor Geek) of Coffee With Kenobi joins the supergeek assembly for an in-depth Star Warsy discussion.  In fact, it’s such a comprehensive and passionate discussion, that GANNIN has trouble getting them to come to Control Central to get news reports.

From the moment Professor Geek arrives at the Fantastic Fortress, the Star Wars talk begins and runs all the way to the assembly meeting.  There, the supergeeks vote on the likability of the Ewoks.

Some of the Force-powered questions and topics include:

  • Were the Special Editions necessary and should George Lucas be allowed to make any changes he wants (since it’s his story)?
  • What do we think about the post-prequel trilogy changes to the original trilogy (changing Boba Fett’s voice, Hayden Christensen’s Anakin spirit, etc)?
  • How good (or bad) are the prequels?  What did we expect from them and what did we get?
  • What to make of Padme losing “the will to live?”
  • Do we want the original cast in Episode VII?

And much more!

This is a must-attend assembly meeting for any Star Wars fan.
