Hi, and welcome to the 2025 "The R2view Direct" where I talk about my plans for 2025.

First though, thanks for being here during this move to Bluesky. I hope I helped lighten your day a bit, and hopefully, I'll do so next year as well.

You need to watch more Doctor Who.

It's a Rise of Skywalker reference.

Holy shit, EVERYONE got medals in this one!

And that's The Star Wars. It's a fun story that I think could've been a cult classic film... but man, thank the Force George kept revising it to get the movie we ultimately DID get.

Tomorrow we'll start a different Star Wars series.

Well, I guess Darth Vader is dead.

Annikin looks like Matt Smith to me. I can't unsee that.

The space battle is going on. It's cool but not much to say yet.

Jedi and Sith, fighting together. They've created a Force Dyad!

...I fucking hate myself for that joke.

Damn, the Empire also turning against the Sith? What assholes!

Annikin has been bested by the thing that bests a lot of us on occasion: gas.

I have a headache, you get my shit jokes today.

The Star Wars issue 8.

Let's finish this one up.

The MAIN Ewok in the movie.

You GOTTA watch the movies, man...

Giant warriors defeating Imperials as opposed to teddy bears defeating Imperials.

Well, the pieces are all set for a final battle. Which... I will TRY to cover tonight, but I'm running behind so probably will tomorrow.

Damn, I wish I could see a version of Return of the Jedi where they teach Ewoks to fly ships.

Imagine Wicket blowing up the Death Star.

...I'm starting to think Darth Vader might be evil.
ther2view.bsky.social
...huh. Yeah, this does hit differently with Wookies instead of Ewoks.

Congratulations on the promotion, Annikin!

Looks like Annikin has a new pet.

The Star Wars issue 7.

That Chewie is going to haunt my nightmares.

What does that have to do with Owen?
ther2view.bsky.social
...Luke's Uncle who raised him, you uncultured swine.

Now see, that's an understandable response.
