Caitlin and Charlotte discuss Leigh Brackett, the first writer of the sequel to 1977’s Star Wars. Known as “The Queen of Space Opera,” Leigh Brackett worked with George Lucas to write a Star Wars sequel before it was called The Empire Strikes Back. Sadly, Brackett tragically died of cancer before completing the project and Lawrence Kasden was brought on — but several of her ideas and concepts made it to the screen. Caitlin and Charlotte discuss Brackett’s life, her involvement with Star Wars, her 2nd draft, what they liked about it and what they didn’t, and so much more.

In part 3 of our series covering the anthology “Our Blessed Rebel Queen”, we look at Andrew Kemp-Wilcox’s essay, “Harvesting the Celebrity Interface: Carrie Fisher, Virtual Performance, and Software Stars”. The essay covers the topics of digital performance, online persona, the concept of the “software celebrity”, and consumerism. We continue analyzing our relationship to Princess Leia and Carrie Fisher: How we have been consumers of her image and persona and how we have projected ourselves onto her. We talk through these topics and our own ever-changing relationship with constructed images and celebrity.

Charlotte and Caitlin continue to examine the character through the archetype of “the hermit.” How does is Obi-Wan a guide to characters such as Anakin and Luke and even Ezra? In what ways is he a work in progress? How does Obi-Wan embody that figure? In which ways does he defer? We discuss how Obi-Wan is introspective and whether or not he is even allowed to be so.

Happy summer series! In our first episode of our three-part analysis of Obi-Wan Kenobi, we first begin by aligning Obi-Wan with the tarot card, The King of Swords.

Then, we explore the development of the character and trace the origins from the early 70s to now, with anecdotes about Alec Guinness and Carlos Castaneda. Then, we discuss what moments we see as the defining character moments. All this and more. Knowing Kenobi series artwork by Kara DJ, author and artist behind "Into a Larger World" fanzine.

Part 2 really gets into the characters. We ask questions like: are these characters well developed? Why do we respond so much to these core characters? In part 3, we evaluate where this fits in in our updated Machete Order, which puts The Phantom Menace in the front.
