On the Next Major Spoilers Podcast: Star Wars: Legacy – War

This week on the Major Spoilers Podcast, it is time once again to travel to a galaxy far, far away…

Star Wars: Legacy – War

It’s an all-out war as the Sith emperor returns from the dead-stronger, more evil, more determined, and prepared to unleash a new secret weapon upon the galaxy! Roan Fel’s loyalist Imperials, the Galactic Alliance, and the Jedi are all on the defensive-reeling from the attacks by the unified Sith.

But Cade Skywalker has his own plans for this war–all this time spent running from his legacy has finally shown him that he can’t run . . . and he must stand alone against Darth Krayt! Collects the six-issue miniseries.

Major Spoilers Question Of The Day: Obi-Wan Never Told You Edition

Yesterday’s MS-QOTD referenced (but did not fully reveal) one of the spoilery moments from the new Avengers movie, causing one Faithful Spoilerite to remark on how callously commonplace it has become to find casual revelations of shocking moments that might adversely affect other people’s enjoyment.  Ironically for someone who has spent half a decade writing for a site called ‘Major Spoilers’, I routinely try to avoid big plot reveals, preferring to make indirect references in respect to those who don’t (or don’t want to) know.  Part of that stems from an incident in college where I was chastised by a schoolmate for joking about the spoiler at the end of Citizen Kane, a movie then half-a-century old!

The MS-QOTD (pronounced either “Romanadvoratrelundar” or “Fred”) is one of personal choice:  How long is long enough to wait before a spoiler is no longer a spoiler?

WTF: Star Wars Kinect

I don’t know what to say.  On the one hand, I was never in favor of the Kinect in the first place, because anything that requires me to get off my ass and do anything even remotely close to exercise scares me.  On the other hand… nope… sorry, I can’t think of anything positive say, especially after watching this atrocity that is Star Wars Kinect.
