My Jedi Memoir: A Double Life is a @booklife Editors Pick ⚡️. "Jedi fans will feast, but Kahn’s life, work, and hard-won insights are fascinating enough that readers will likely hope for a followup that spends more time in a galaxy closer to home.".

In The Goonies, Mikey mentions that he once broke his arm falling into an excavation at the Cuesta Verde housing development - the same development where the Freelings lived in Poltergeist.
