It’s time to join those ‘Three Cards’ that trump all others: Alan, Mark, and Ryder for another episode of Idiot’s Array!  The Road Gang is back and they’re riffling their cards for a playback of SDCC – starting off by sharing their Railbirds POV of The Force Awakens panel. Then it’s time, for a Round Of Play as these three discuss the original trilogy and any possible continuity conflicts based on JJ Abrams statement of canon from TFA panel. After which, they draw their Scare Card, as each of them take a shotgun approach on sharing their feelings of Harrison Ford gracing the fans with his appearance at SDCC, followed by another shuffle in the deck as they discuss their favorite moments for the Star Wars Reel; behind the scenes. Finally, they Tap-Out with an analytical theorization of the new sequel trilogy and its plausible tie-in to the prequels. This is an Unlimited Array – and it’s not to be missed

… “He’s a card player, gambler, scoundrel. You’d like him.” – Han Solo

Hello, what do we have here? Please, we’d be honored if you’d join us for a game of Sabacc. First time, you say? Ah … beginner’s luck. Or perhaps, Lando will be kind enough to spare some of that so called … ‘Lady Luck’ he calls charm, with all of us.

In today’s deck, our dealers: Alan, Ryder, and Mark up their antes before anyone can bluff by calling out a canonical hand and laying it all out on the table; NO-HOLDS-BARRED. Anything goes, from the Expanded Universe, to the now/new Legends, and everything in between. After all, House Rules and these guys call the shots. In closing, they follow up with a winning hand by paying homage to STAR WARS month and the 38th anniversary of the original movie that started it all, STAR WARS: A New Hope.
