STAR WARS: VISIONS SEASON 3 REVIEW
Star Wars: Visions returns with nine bold new animated shorts that push the galaxy far, far away into fresh artistic territory while continuing a few fan-favorite stories like The Duel, The Ninth Jedi, and The Village Bride, as well as 6 brand new visions. Each short brings a different style, mood, and interpretation of what Star Wars can be, continuing the anthology’s mission to let new creators redefine the edge of the galaxy. Melina, Drew, and T.C. gather in the One Of Us Rebel Base to chart their thoughts on the season and decide which entries soar and which ones missed their hyperjump.

Drew Shaw
As the son of a Coast Guard pilot, Drew has lived everywhere in the US that has a coast that needs guarding. All his childhood travels eventually landed him in Northern Virginia where he works at a brewery by day and watches movies with all the other free time life has to offer him. Drew’s fiance and cats are tired of him ranting and raving about whatever his latest movie obsession is so he is taking to the air waves to make it everybody else’s problem. On the off chance Drew isn’t watching a movie, he likes spending his time reading comics and literature, gaming, and playing around with all his various music making gadgets.
Melina Eames (Screener Squad)
Melina first discovered that she carried the nerd gene at the tender age of four following her exposure to a little film called A New Hope. In the twenty-some years that followed, Melina continued to grow into her geek identity through the discovery of Batman, Mst3k, Game of Thrones, Lord of the Rings, and The Mandalorian. But perhaps her most significant discovery came at the age of fourteen when a night of YouTube mining led her to the review site of Spill.com. Melina became a devoted follower whose fandom did not end with the site’s demise. By then, it had worked its dark magic and left her with a love and appreciation for film criticism that she has yet to shrug.
