Star Wars Countdown Part 9 - The Force Awakens

Hello everyone, and welcome to our brand new, limited series: Star Wars Countdown, where the two Scotts will be reviewing one of the live-action Star Wars movie each week leading up to the finale of the Skywalker Saga: Star Wars Episode IX - The Rise of Skywalker. What's the hook of this show you might ask? The two Scotts are joined each week by a very special guest, Jay Habib, who has never seen a Star Wars movie. Tune in each week to see his fresh perspectives, hot takes, and wild theories about what will come next in the Star Wars universe.

In part 9 of the countdown, the podcasting trio enters the home stretch in the form of the sequel trilogy, starting first with episode 7, The Force Awakens. Scott, Scott, and Jay go in-depth about all the new additions to the cast, including Rey, Kylo, Finn, Poe, BB-8, and beyond, before discussing whether the returning members of the cast are given their due, whether The Force Awakens' plot borrows too much from A New Hope, and whether Jay can predict what will happen in the finale of the Star Wars Countdown!
