132. This is the Way Podcast June 2023 News Update

This is the Way we handle podcasts in the summer...sometimes.

The middle of the year last year was cooled off by the chilly reception some people gave Obi-Wan Kenobi (the series, not the character). This spring, The Mandalorian (again, series, not characters) didn't exactly heat things up...unless you were Moff Gideon I guess. That's why the Disney Gallery behind-the-scenes look at season three of The Mandalorian felt lukewarm at best. Well, there was no Luke, like there was for season two or even The Book of Boba Fett.

Ahsoka and Skeleton Crew might be the only hopes after last month's awful news on The Acolyte. There's some gaming news that might only be marketing, but we'll have to give a new developer time to develop an eleven year old MMORPG and give the benefit of the doubt to a game that might be "eclipsing" another that has been in development for a ridiculously long time. As usual there is some news for collector and we're choosing to believe that "Commander Appo" is not the same as "Sergeant Appo" from The Clone Wars, because it certainly seems like a retcon if he's actually the same guy on Daiyu that Obi-Wan sees pandhandling. Somehow, that would make the series even worse in this podcast's opinion.

Did we mention Galactic Starcruiser? No? Neither is Disney really, except to say, hey...we've got plans for that ol' hunk o' concrete.

"June" never know what This is the Way Podcast will be up to next...well, July, I suppose.
