It’s time for another episode of The
Weekly Stuff Podcast with Jonathan Lack & Sean Chapman, a weekly audio
show that explores the worlds of film, television, and video games. You can

This week, we return to a galaxy
far, far away for our second critical conversation about the infamous Star Wars prequels, this time diving
deep with Episode II – Attack of the
Clones. Perhaps the most maligned and dismissed of the Star Wars films, Attack of
the Clones is, like The Phantom
Menace before it, a much better film than its reputation would assert, a ‘grown-up’
Star Wars movie full of complicated
ideas and nuanced character work. It also represents a major inflection point
in the history of digital cinema, and remains one of the most visually stunning
blockbusters ever created. Once again, this was a fun and engaging topic to
record, and we think you’ll enjoy it. We also talk a little more about some
recent games, including Dragon Ball
FighterZ, walk through some recent gaming news, and give thoughts on all
the movie trailers from Super Bowl Sunday, including our first look at Solo: A Star Wars Story.
Enjoy!
