Summary

We've talked about the Super 8 Empire Strikes Back, we've talked about the Story of Empire on record, we've talked about the 70mm version, the mono version, and the 35mm version but this week we're talking about one the wildest versions of Empire ever - THE KENNER GIVE A SHOW VERSION. This is a toy slide show interpretation of ESB that takes some interesting choices on how to rearrange the story while showing off some incredible illustrations based on the film. And, to spice things up, we made a full 12-minute audio version based on the structure seen in the slides. It's an episode 3 months in the making and it'll change the way you think of Empire or at least the way you look at slide shows of Empire from 1980! So get a hose to empty out your dirty water, celebrate the love and listen today!
