SWCP Episode 33: Does The Sequel Trilogy Make More Sense As Novels?

News
- Rosario Dawson is playing Ahsoka Tano in season 2 of The Mandalorian

Canon Spotlight
- "The Rise Of Skywalker" novelization by Rea Carson

Main Topic: Does the sequel trilogy work better as a set of films, a set of novels, or not at all? (Spoiler Warning)
- Chelsea Lamb - Brian! Huge fan of you and your show. I've heard you say that the novel for The Last Jedi was better than the film. Is the novel for Rise of Skywalker the same way? Would love to hear your thoughts on the trilogy as a whole as novels instead of films.

Mailbag Questions

1.) Sydney Hart - Hello Brian. I just found your podcast and love it. I was wondering: Who exactly was Yoda talking about in Empire strikes Back when he said 'No there is another?' I tend to think it was Leia, but is there something in canon I'm missing? Keep up the great work.

2.) Collin Sutton - Hey brian. A friend told me about your show and i love it. I know there are a lot of people who claim lucasfilm didn't have a full plan coming into this trilogy. But J.J. Abrams has stated he wanted Palpatine all the way back when he filmed the force awakens. What are you thoughts on the debate? Cheers!

3.) Ron Wheeler - hey there brian. long time listener, first time writing in. i love your podcast. i cant wait to see where it goes in the future. was wondering if you could give an update on what comics are currently running, what comics are releasing this year, and what novels we know are coming out this year. hard to keep up with all of this sometimes haha. keep doing what youre doing. a lot of us depend on it.
