Tatooine Sons is a weekly conversation between a dad and his two sons about the biggest pop culture films and TV franchises. We believe that pop culture is the mythology of this generation; that there is a story written on our souls and that these “myths” speak to that story. That’s why we talk about Star Wars, Marvel, DC, Lord of the Ring and more.<br /><br />

This week we’re continuing our look into "The Acolyte" by focusing on the actual story behind the controversial series and what it means for the future of Star Wars. <br /><br />In our last episode, we shared our overall thoughts on Season 1, but now it’s time to break down the plot.

We also explore whether "The Acolyte" stayed true to Star Wars’ roots as a feature film franchise or if it fell short in translating the saga to the small screen. Tune in to hear our take on how the story was presented and why it may have missed the mark with audiences.<br /><br />Subscribe now on Substack for weekly updates, in-depth exploration, and a vibrant community of fellow pop culture enthusiasts.
