This week on The Star Wars Show! hi I'm Anthony Carboni
And I'm Andi Gutierrez welcome to a Star Wars Show, the only show on the internet
crazy enough to live stream from celebration orlando for four days and
then just to say hey let's do an extra regular episode on top of that yeah for
fun because we're delirious and also we love you we do sorry Frank you still
have to edit this. In a rare turn of events Star Wars Celebration was super
light on news. Hahahaha The entire event kicked off with a celebration of the 40th
anniversary of Star Wars where the audience was treated to surprise
appearances from George Lucas, Harrison Ford, and John Williams backed by a full
orchestra all culminating in a stirring tribute to Carrie Fisher the next day we
were treated to our first look at The Last Jedi including new still images of
the cast in action learning more about Kelly Marie Tran's role as Rose in the
movie and oh yeah The Last Jedi trailer also revealed on Friday with the new
Forces of Destiny series of animated shorts where original cast members
reprised their roles in this inspiring new series on Saturday Dave Filoni
dropped the megaton bomb that Star Wars Rebels would be coming to an end after
season 4 but not before announcing that fan-favorite character Rook would be
introduced this season voiced by none other than Warwick Davis as well as
showing off that epic trailer for season 4 then EA pulled back the curtain on
Battlefront II revealing its single-player campaign the Inferno
Squadron and showing off that yes this time battlefront will be covering all
eras of Star Wars you see in the films including some upcoming last Jedi
content to coincide with the movie's release oh and did we mention we had
tons of Star Wars celebrities and guests on our stage this week like George Lucas
Harrison Ford Kathleen Kennedy Anthony Daniels Billy Dee Williams Felicity
Jones Forest Whitaker Rey Park John Boyega
Mark Hamill Dave Filoni Kelly Marie Tran and tons more and you can relive it
only on our channel. shifting gears for a moment you might
have heard that The Last Jedi director Ryan Johnson showed up and made a point
to visit with as many fans as possible that were waiting late at night for the
line he was there until 3:00 a.m. hanging out with fans because frankly he
is one. That's right and we here at starwars.com had the opportunity to sit
down with him before he even started shooting the last Jedi to talk about his
love for the saga and so much more in this never-before-seen interview enjoy
The captain says you are a friend I will not kill you.
my very first Star Wars memory is my dad putting me in the car to go see A New Hope.
I remember him putting me in the car and I asked where we're going and he
said we're going to see the most incredible thing you've ever seen which
considering I would have been three or four years old relative statement but
he was right. When my dad brought home the very first video camera he ever got it
wasn't a camcorder as a video camera that you plugged into a VCR to record
with and the first thing I did with it was hold it down at ground level and I
ran with the camera between the coffee table in the couch and I played it back
and I just watch it I'm like oh my god that looks exactly like the trench run
down the Death Star the impact I think came less from the movies and it came
more from talking with the friends about the movies and creating the movies and
the share the imagination space between you and your friends playing with the
toys and just the fact that the movies you made in your head when you were a
kid were framed in the world of Star Wars now I'm like oh why don't I have
any of my old Star Wars toys I bought back and remembered oh it's because I
actually like played with them and they've all fell apart so like I put
together the Millennium Falcon I got it all assembled I put the action figures
all in there and I picked it up and I looked at it and then I threw it across
the room to see how it would look like it's like looking at Star Wars taking a
part it's amazing especially A New Hope I think because it's like the Beatles
where it's so deeply ingrained in our culture it's very easy to take for
granted how extraordinarily weird it is and how genre twisting in a kind of
mind-blowing way that first movie was I got to go to archives
up at Skywalker Ranch and it's I mean it's your brain just gets
overloaded because literally every single thing your eye lands on is
something that you know intimately from knowing these movies so well even like
the the power generator from Hoth which I think in the movies you only really see
a done like a video image but you turn you turn your head and there's a model
of it that's this big the way being a writer-director affects how I approach
it it makes it in a way really comfortable because it's the same way
I've approached every other film for me it's it's just all about starting from
the first seed of okay what is this movie about to me does it really mean
and then building everything up from there and that's what gives me the
confidence to step onto a set full of people who are more talented than myself
and steer the ship is knowing that I really know this thing down to down to
its inception the fact that Star Wars is this thing where we all have this shared
cultural experience with it the fact that so many of us hold this world so
dear and so many of us have that deep emotional connection to it and that kids
do they do also you realize the power of a story that goes that deep into the
culture and the potential telling new stories in that world
everybody here is is doing everything right kind of amazing actually
everyone here is in it for the right reasons and is approaching this from the
right mindset and everyone who loves Star Wars should feel really really
confident about just the entire creative team that's coming forward to make this
next round of movies happen
You want to tell us how it ends?
um yeah sure it ends with (silence) Dagobah. Yeah it's going to be fun.
Celebration Matt attack. I've seen inside your mind!

of Star Wars Celebration we have brought on a special guest to help us make the
cannon...canon. Pablo can you confirm does this cannon is canon? What I am holding
is a Marason munitions SWS 1013 projectile launcher let's fire some
t-shirts? yes!

yeah
DICE, EA... I want to see this in Battlefront!
they are literally tearing down the stage around us so it's probably time to
pack up and go home and sleep yeah I could sleep for a week just throw me in
carbonite hey if you were in carbonite would it be Carbonieite? that is really
really bad you're jokes get worse what you're tired you know that is great
you've never heard that oh hey thanks for watching and may the Force be with you.
You know it's a good pun though is Bossk Baby. That is a good one.
Could an older, time traveling Salacious Crumb killed Anakin as a boy before he became Darth Vader?
Okay, now, now. I didn't spoil the plot of 8 now?

anything but that as eight now?
