About Duel of the Ranks: A Star Wars Show

Have you ever wondered what it takes to make a great Star Wars film or TV episode? Despite their greatness, why do these cinematic masterpieces boil up so many differing opinions? Is it simply generational? Which is the best one? If you are curious at all about any of these hot button issues, then you have come to the right place. Welcome to Duel of the Ranks (DotR), a show where we debate takes so hot that a planet with twin suns would melt!
