Star Wars: The Force Awakens has finally arrived and the galaxy has exploded with excitement! Well over a decade has passed since we have been treated with a new Star Wars film, so of course we each have our own expectations for J.J. Abrams' new take on George Lucas' science-fiction opus. 

What did we love about the new film? Was there too much nostalgia? Do we like the new direction J.J. and company have taken, or were we expecting something else? May the force be with us as we discuss the film at length - including our thoughts on the new cast of characters Kylo Ren, Rey, Finn, and of course BB-8! It's all here in our special, dedicated episode to the most anticipated film of the year - Star Wars: The Force Awakens!

Our topic this week: When is it time to admit our favorite films don’t hold up, and we are just blinded by nostalgia? SO many of our favorite films are having pinnacle anniversaries, but are they really as good as we remember them? Or are we all just wearing rose-colored glasses? We discuss this, as well as some of our favorites that both do and do not stand the test of time.

Stay after the normal episode as discuss The Hunger Games: Mockingjay Part 2 and the series as a whole, now that it has wrapped up.
