#2 - Star Wars - The Last Jedi: What Snoke could have learned from other historical imperial body guards

One of the biggest hits, from the biggest movie franchise on the planet, and yet the Last Jedi is also very divisive. This doesn’t deter NEON as the deep dive reveals parallels with another sci-fi franchise Warhammer 40,000 and of course real history. Napoleon gets a look as do Ancient Rome. Perhaps the best scene in the movie involves Snoke and his Praetorian Guard and NEON compares the action of this fictional body guard to the real Roman one, who comes out of the comparison better? Add to that some dark facts about the Nazis and you have a truly epic episode.Written & Presented by Jem Duducu Produced by Dan MorelleMusic: The Prodigy - Diesel PowerBe awesome, support us on PatreonSubscribe to the podcast in iTunes and follow us on Twitter.
