With Matt deciding to celebrate his birthday in Florida, we kind of had to throw a curve-ball. But have no worries Percolated Media listeners, as the boys are nothing if not prepared. We’ll ALWAYS be here to release a new podcast on Fridays. It’s just that this week and next, we’ll have to go with a series that was actually recorded a couple months ago for situations such as this.
After Return of the Jedi, people assumed that George Lucas was done with Star Wars. But it took barely a year for people to know, that he wasn’t even close to being done. As sixteen years before he finished and released The Phantom Menace (a movie we’re getting to soon), Lucas bonded with ABC and long before Disney Plus series such as Ashoka and The Mandalorian, Lucas did his own in World Series by diving into the far east moon of Endor and exploring Ewok adventures that supposedly took place BEFORE the rebels asked for their help in fighting the Empire.
Listen in as the boys review the first of those adventures, Caravan of Courage. They talk about how Lucas came to this idea, why it was made in literally his backyard, and what attention to detail he paid while making this network movie. Hint, it wasn’t much.
Tune in next week as we finish this mini retro with a review of Ewoks: The Battle For Endor. And then they’ll return to schedule and get right back into the Superman series!
