On this episode, Dominic, Ben, and Chris react to the news that Gina Carano is no longer part of Star Wars.  They discuss the circumstances that led to her firing and why it was the right call from Disney/Lucasfilm (albeit, very late).  They also talk about what's next for the character Cara Dune, how The Mandalorian should handle either dropping the character or recasting the role, and how close we were to a Cara Dune spin-off.  Plus, should there ever be a Marvel/Star Wars crossover film, memories of The Phantom Menace 3D release, a plea for a 3D release of Revenge of the Sith, and the correct way to pronounce "against".  All this and much more!
