    Douglas Vincent; the third member of the Douglas Vincent DID System returns to continue his discussion with Mike, where they nerd out about Star Wars!

    This week, in part 2, Doug gives his thoughts on the Sequel Trilogy, noting his favourite film of the three and then following this, they talk about Canon and Legends comics & books, including Aphra and the many crossover events in the 2020 main Star Wars run. Towards the end, Doug talks about lessons within Skeleton Crew (no spoilers) and addresses people’s thoughts about characters some believe have DID traits.

    If you missed part 1, Doug & Mike started by speaking about Douglas’ first experience with Star Wars and recalling memories of his childhood, including watching half a recording of Empire Strikes Back on VHS! The conversation then lead into the modern era, as Doug explained his experiences with the Prequel Trilogy, plus the duo discussed “The Dark Years” of Star Wars (when barely anything was being released), followed by the steady release of books and comics following the Heir To The Empire trilogy.

The trio discuss the many failings of the Jedi, Ahsoka’s relationships with both Anakin and Barriss Offee, Tarkin’s involvement, the animation improvements and the weight that the finale episode carries, plus Mike spinkles in a few bits of canon trivia throughout!
