In this episode, which first dropped over a month ago to our Powerful Friendz on Patreon, we discuss the impact and importance of shocking reveals throughout Star Wars. Is the franchise chasing its own tail? A victim of its own success? Does Lucasfilm think it's a staple ingredient in making Star Wars what it is? How about fans, yourself included? When you look at the history of reveals in Star Wars, how have they impacted your enjoyment? Do they take you out of the movie, or plunge you deeper into it?In this record-setting episode of Luminous Beings, we go all across the saga discussing different reveals and how they've shaped the Star Wars phenomenon. We also muse about what the future looks like for stories using the reveal.If you enjoyed this episode, and all of the content we publish, then consider supporting us on Patreon from as little as $1 per month!

In this episode of the podcast, we're happy to have Tim from The Nerd Room with us for this week's episode where we discuss our collections, the potential of The Mandalorian season 2 trailer coming soon, and the evolution of the cinematic experience. Because of the pandemic, and the rise of streaming services, the stars have aligned in a way that might spell the end of the movie going experience as we know it. Are we ready for this? Do we want this? It's coming regardless of whether or not we want it, and you can use this episode as a prelude to change.We also announce our panel at the upcoming ForceFest weekend from August 29-30. This event will raise funds for the Children's Make-A-Wish Foundation, and you can find that link here: https://secure2.wish.org/site/TR;jsessionid=00000000.app20003a?px=5465345&fr_id=3402&pg=personal&NONCE_TOKEN=E304E2A8AE5A0DD5C9883055DC630EC6#.XzF62ShKjDf

In this episode of Luminous Beings, which releases weeks early to our Patreon supporters, we discuss the big scary spoiler culture. Why do some people crave knowing what's yet to come in Star Wars, while others treat spoilers like a plague? We discuss what's attractive about a spoiler, when it's appropriate to discuss them, not being a jerk about them, and when the mothership doesn't even want to cooperate.Enjoy the podcast, and your weekend!If you're interested in more of our exclusive, early-release and ad-free audio content, check us out on Patreon at http://www.patreon.com/tumblingsaberCheerz!
