Summary

This edition of #skytalkersmachete is all about 1977's Star Wars: Episode IV A New Hope. We spend some time responding to a listener email, then move into part 1, which is all about the film's story. 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. All this Star Wars discussion and more on this episode of Skytalkers: This Galactic Life! Follow us @skytalkerspod and individually @crerrity and @caitlinplesher on Twitter for constant Star Wars discussion! Visit us on skytalkers.com. Learn more about your ad choices.

1:10.5	because it's like one of the greatest films ever made.
