Mousterpiece Cinema, Episode 228: “Star Wars: The Force Awakens”

Friends, the time has finally come. Anticipation has hit a fever pitch. Crowds are lining up around the block just to see the result of years of buildup. Yes, friends, you know what we’re talking about. It’s the battle to end all 2015 battles: is Gabe about to eat a heaping pile of crow, or did he hate the new Star Wars movie? That’s right, as we approach the end of 2015, it’s time for Josh and Gabe to face the biggest movie of the year, Star Wars: The Force Awakens. As you may know, Josh has been looking forward to this one for a while, but Gabe’s been obstinately against it. But now that the movie’s out, did the movie surprise them? Did it win them over? They’re joined by friend of the show Anthony Breznican of Entertainment Weekly to talk the big issues: are the new characters fun? Did the movie do well by our old friends Han Solo, Leia Organa, and…R2-D2? Spoilers abound here, so be warned, but if you’re ready and if the Force is with you, then check out the new show!
