Still not quite sure what this is, trash can possibly?

Review - R2in22 Episode 2

Once again we join Adam, Andy, and Jen as they bring us all things Star Wars in episode 2 of R2in22.

Episode 2 features:

• Identities News
• Hayden Christensen and the Star Wars Curse
• Video Game News, including a review of Star Wars Kinect
• Book News
• Top Ten: Best Expanded Universe Rumors

Though down a man this episode (no Mike), the gang still does a satisfactory job in presenting many different opinions and knowledge on all the topics.

For instance, their agreed upon opinion of Hayden Christensen, bad actor who always plays a whinny character, is spot on.

During the book review there is an Old Republic book that they can't think of the name for, well it's Deceived by Paul Kemp, and it was the novel that involved that epic fight between the Sith and Jedi in the first trailer to BioWare's Star Wars: The Old Republic video game.

Once again the Top Ten was humorous, and can't wait to see what the next one will bring.

The only thing missing from the episode, well besides Mike, was the lack of action figure news; but other than this, everything else you could want was present.

R2in22 episode 2 earns itself a 4 out of 5 Death Stars.

Review - R2In22: Episode 1

Premiering last week was R2In22; a 22 minute podcast hosted by Andy, Mike, Adam, and Jen.

R2In22 includes current Star Wars headlines, game reviews / previews, The Clone Wars cartoon recaps, comic book coverage, and probably more than you'll ever want to know about Star Wars action figures.

This Week's Topics Included:

• The Clone Wars Episode 19 'Massacre' Recap
• Discussion of the 2012 Action Figure Line-up
• Dawn of the Jedi Comic Book Review
• The Old Republic Video Game Review
• Top 10: Sith My Kids Say

This podcast runs smoothly from topic to topic, with an adequate amount of time spent on each subject; all four hosts are very knowledgeable in the Star Wars Galaxy; and it has a little something for everyone; be it if you're gamer, comic book enthusiast, or collector.

Although just to pick on Adam for a minute, during the discussion about the 2012 action figure line-up, Adam brought up that Mara Jade was the winner of the Fan's Choice Figure and that this would be the first time she'd be available other than in the old comic book pack, however he failed to remember this...

Now other than this little Mara misinformation, everything else was spot on and very detailed.

We give the first episode of R2In22 5 out of 5 Death Stars and look forward to the next podcast.

R2-D2 WTF??

This pic came up on Sci-Fi Wire over the weekend of 9/12/09 and I came to agree with them that this is a must see pic. Sci-Fi Wire found the pic over on Geekologie

No one is exactly sure where it originated from, but many assume somewhere out of Japan.

Oh and please feel free to insert your jokes in the comment section on this one. -GJ
