It's now 2017 and the Cheerful Ghost Roundtable is here to ring in the new year! We always start things off talking about what we're playing which is a fun mash of the new Nintendo Classic, Ocarina of Time 3D & Let it Die. Moving quickly into the fresh news of the day being the reveal of the full title of "Star Wars Episode VIII: The Last Jedi." What does this new title mean, why is the title red and will Jar-Jar be finally revealed as a Sith? Finally we end things off with our discussion of the Nintendo Switch dropping our thoughts on the new system and if we will be picking it up.

This is a special episode in that Scrypt and I stayed on longer at the end to have a bonus discussion about a 2016 sc-fi film Arrival. This episode went way long because of that and I encourage you to watch Arrival before you listen to our discussion of it because it contains spoilers from the top of beginning.

Of all of the choices Google gave me, that one was the best. If you can imagine and i'm not trolling you on purpose. smile

It's totally fine. I just think it's funny, some of the scenes it decides to capture. ;)

Agreed.

I'm not a fan of "The Last Jedi," but I'm still looking forward to the movie.

Considering we're still discussing what "The Force Awakens" means, I don't think we have to take The Last Jedi literally (at least I hope it's not literal. I'd rather not have the main plot line spelled out clearly in the title)

I don't think they "Ferngullied" Star Wars either.
