Average Joe is joined by returning special guest Anonymous this week to journey once again to a galaxy far, far away to share their experiences with the original Star Wars trilogy and George Lucas' quest to make this cultural phenomenon.

Before getting lost in space, the guys speak about Patrick Stewart's future with the X-Men movies and his legacy as Professor Xavier.

Average Joe and Anonymous barely touch the tip of the Hoth-based iceberg when speaking about these memorable films, so let us know what you think about them! Full SPOILER warning for Episodes IV-VI of Star Wars.

"Star Wars: Main Title", "The Imperial March" and "Binary Sunset" are pieces of music used in this episode and they are the property of John Williams and Lucasfilm Ltd.

Asian Jon is going on vacation but not before this week's feature length episode! The guys talk about the first bit of casting for the new "Lion King" movie, give their opinions on the super fun "LEGO Batman Movie", and spin a web around the Sam Raimi Spider-Man trilogy.

Find out about Asian Jon's complicated history with Tobey Maguire and Average Joe's attachment to these movies.

LEGO Batman Movie SPOILERS happen between 16:54 and 26:17 (so skip around these to avoid spoilers for the movie).

Spider-Man music used in this episode is the property of Danny Elfman and Sony Pictures.

Holy new episode, Batman! This week, the Bat-Jar's own dynamic duo talk about Ben Affleck stepping down as director of the new Batman movie before spending the majority of their time shining a spotlight on the various characters who have served as Robin in Batman stories (there are more than Asian Jon thinks there are). SPOILERS for several Batman stories from various decades as we discuss these characters.

Audio in this episode is the property of Warner Brothers Animation and DC Comics. Clips used are from "Young Justice", "Batman: Under The Red Hood", "Batman: The Dark Knight Returns: Part I", and "Batman Vs. Robin". To view the videos referenced in the video, click on the links below.

Take a trip with Average Joe and Asian Jon as they first journey to a galaxy far, far away to discuss the untitled Han Solo movie beginning production. Will Darth Vader be in it?

Then get lost with the guys in Netflix/The CW's "Riverdale", which doesn't quite look like what they remember from the comics.

Finally, hop into a snake infested bi-plane as they journey around the world to discuss the 'Indiana Jones" franchise, where as usual, there are strong winds and even stronger opinions.

FULL SPOILERS for the Riverdale pilot episode and the Indiana Jones films.

Audio from the "Riverdale" promo in this episode is the property of The CW. The "Indiana Jones" is the property of John Williams and Lucasfilm Ltd.
