STAR WARS Is In Serious Trouble...

Star Wars: Starfighter & Ahsoka Season 2 had their debut at D23. Greg sits down with Kristian Harloff to talk about the current state of Star Wars after D23. With Starfighter, Ahsoka Season 2, the future of the movies, and a new era of Lucasfilm taking shape, can Star Wars become a major cultural event again? Did years of Disney+ shows hurt the brand? Does Star Wars need a bigger plan moving forward? And what would it actually take to get audiences excited again? We get into all of that, plus what Star Wars can learn from Marvel, the importance of moving beyond Episode IX, and whether the franchise can truly make a comeback.
