· 3 pulledI didn't plan it this way, but it's a good coincidence that my interview with Devindra Hardawar is coming out on the week that the first Star Wars movie in years is being crushed at the box office by two low budget horror movies.

Devindra is a senior editor at Engadget and a co-host of The Filmcast, a podcast about film I've been listening to for 15 years.
