Speaker 1 (00:03):
Hello and welcome to the we Recommend podcast, a
movie podcast where every week,we recommend a movie for you to
watch and then come back hereand listen to us discuss.
I'm Jesse, I'm Jason, I'mDakota.
Hokey, religions and ancientweapons are no match for a good
blaster at your side, kid,because this week we recommend
Star Wars, a New Hope.
Yeah, our first Star Wars,baby's first Star Wars.

(00:35):
So like this, is Y'all likethis movie?
Yes, it's pretty good, rightDecent.

Speaker 3 (00:42):
Don't even play it.

Speaker 1 (00:43):
I don't want to try this right now.
We already did this bit in thelast episode that hasn't been
released yet.

Speaker 3 (00:49):
I don't care.

Speaker 1 (00:50):
Prepare.
I want to immediately startwith our rankings.
Jason, just the Skywalker saga,which is the nine films,
prequels, sequels and originals.
How would you rank them?
Number one, Okay, what's numberone?
I rank them all one.

(01:11):
I'll start for example, phantomMenace number one.

Speaker 2 (01:17):
My favorite.

Speaker 1 (01:18):
Number one.
With a bullet, empire StrikesBack Obvi, then A New Hope, then
Last Jedi, then I New Hope,then Last Jedi, then I guess
I'll probably go.
Return of the Jedi, forceAwakens, probably Clone Wars,
then probably what's the onethat Revenge of the Sith, then

(01:44):
Phantom Menace, then probablyRise of Skywalker, because it's
just a deplorable movie and thisis like very well, our lists
are like the same, but you coulddefinitely see the difference
of like preference here in mineversus yours.
Yeah, well, the first two areperfect movies and the next one
the rest of them.
There's well, there's parts Ilike, obviously, of Last Jedi

(02:06):
and Return of the Jedi, and thenportions of it where I'm like
they missed the mark here, andthen everything after those two
I'm like I don't know.
I'll watch Clone Wars becauseit's funny, and the rest of them
.
I don't like sand it's roughand coarse.
The rest of them are just likeboring and just I don't enjoy.
You do have to watch them.
Specific rise of Skywalker isjust everything wrong with me

(02:31):
today.

Speaker 3 (02:32):
I didn't put notes, but I had because I didn't want
to go crazy.
But I have quick tangents formine.
My ranking Empire Strikes Back.
I mean, it's just EmpireStrikes Back.

Speaker 1 (02:42):
I'm so sorry.
My second one is Revenge of theSith hell yeah, dude, like
fucking, put you in a coffin andbury you alive.
Because of how good it is, Iknow, because of how boring and
dumb it is have you watchedAttack of the Clones.
Alright, let's just keep going.
This is a happy podcast.
My third one is A New Hope.
Okay, my fourth and fifth one,depending I don't know I have an

(03:03):
arrow swapping.

Speaker 3 (03:03):
I was like my fourth one.
I was like which one do Ireally watch more?
I was like I do want to watch.
I like Phantom Menace, not forreasons of being a good movie,
but for reasons of just the Jedistuff is more amped up in it.
Yeah, that's my reason forliking it, which is, I think,
our differences in movies isbecause you watch Star Wars for
movie stuff, not for just allthe nerdy extra shit.

Speaker 1 (03:27):
No, I just think those movies are bad man.

Speaker 3 (03:29):
They are bad movies Even for Star Wars.

Speaker 1 (03:32):
They don't even make Star Wars good anymore.

Speaker 2 (03:34):
Didn't they change the entire dogma with the
Phantom Menace?
Because the Force in this oneand the New Hope is something
you can learn, but in PhantomMenace you've got the
midichlorians in your blood yeah, they kind of went back and
kind of fixed that force babiesyeah.

Speaker 3 (03:49):
Mannequins of force babies yeah, that was bad but
it's just saying like this iswhat allows us.
But you could say anyone has it.
That's the thing.
They've kind of come back andsaid anyone has midichlorians.
It's just not enough.
Yeah, that the whole thingwhich is one of my notes is I
hate that part was I prefer the.
I'm tired of bloodline stuff.

(04:09):
We've been doing it for thislong, even with grogu and stuff
for nine movies.
Even it's spilling out andeverything's like.
Can we just get away from this?
Bring someone new in whodoesn't have to be tied to
anything.
I'm done with it.
I'm ready for a new person.
I want it to be so, which iswhat I loved about, even though
I don't, and that's exactly whatthey did in Star Wars triple x

(04:31):
and from 2012 oh hell yeah,great cinematic.

Speaker 1 (04:35):
I actually thought it was more of a documentary.

Speaker 3 (04:39):
I have no idea.

Speaker 2 (04:41):
I went into the history of Star Wars based
pornographies.

Speaker 1 (04:47):
The only research that does.

Speaker 2 (04:50):
I haven't seen any of them, but in 1977, after this
movie came out, there was StarBabe, and then 85 was Space Nuts
, and then in 2012 was Star WarsTriple X, which I think is a
full feature.

Speaker 3 (05:03):
You said Triple X and I was thinking like the Vin
Diesel movie Vin Diesel.

Speaker 1 (05:06):
Oh man, hell yeah.
I was like what is this?
Am I missing something?
But I'm in them.

Speaker 3 (05:10):
Speaking of parodies, when Survivor was messing up
the other day because of theweather, I typed in Survivor on
my Apple TV and one of the firstoptions of Survivor yes, yes.

Speaker 2 (05:23):
That's wild, that's wild.

Speaker 1 (05:26):
Is it 15 episodes long?

Speaker 3 (05:27):
I don't know what it is.
Anyways, I have four forPhantom Menace, five for Return
of the Jedi, six Clone Warsseven, force Awakens eight, rise
of Skywalker nine.

Speaker 1 (05:39):
Last Jedi.
Okay, what do you got, jason?

Speaker 3 (05:42):
Yep, he's like, I can't remember all these.
I can't remember all these.

Speaker 1 (05:44):
I can't remember all these.
It's all right, I had to lookup Rise of Skywalker.

Speaker 3 (05:46):
How about this?

Speaker 1 (05:47):
Rank the original sequel and prequel Just the
threes.
Just the threes.
Yeah, which ones do you preferto watch?

Speaker 2 (05:54):
Well, I guess it's going to be Empire, then New
Hope, then Return, return.

Speaker 1 (06:01):
Okay.

Speaker 3 (06:08):
Sounds good.
Return the return okay, soundsgood.

Speaker 1 (06:11):
I have so many things just like little notes, but we
got moving, so um, yeah, uh starwars right?

Speaker 2 (06:15):
yeah, dude, some lasers and space wizards so my
grandmother gave me the freemovie box set for christmas.
She didn't know shit about me.
She was the worst at giftgiving.
The previous year she gave meGuitar Plays the Eagles, where
it was an Eagles album but onlyguitar.
But then this one Christmas shegave me the box set.

(06:37):
I just fell in love with it.

Speaker 1 (06:40):
I actually have never owned any Star Wars until the
sequels came out and I juststarted buying those because you
know it's always been a box setand they're huge and I was kind
of hoping they'd eventually getrid of the updated versions of
the movies.
So there's not CGI in it.

Speaker 3 (06:54):
That was my other note currently, so the original
version.
I heard about this.
Yes, full, they've restored itlike proper color correction and
they're going to really reallysit theaters.
Can we also just release it out?
Because, as you know, watchingthis I was like this CGI is so
unnecessary it ruined a lot ofscenes for me, like the Jabba

(07:16):
the Hutt stuff come on therewasn't CGI.

Speaker 1 (07:19):
Oh yeah, I will say for 1977 the CGI looked pretty
good.
Yes, it was pretty good CGI in1977 that.
Jabba stuff.
Jabba looked great for 77, youknow, I don't even remember him
being in there, it wasn't, it'sjust some guy.

Speaker 3 (07:33):
I think they filmed the scene and they never made it
in the original right well, no,it was in the original it was.

Speaker 1 (07:39):
I feel like this is the first time I've ever seen it
.

Speaker 3 (07:41):
I really never remember that scene.

Speaker 2 (07:43):
Get your shit together, jesse Maybe.

Speaker 1 (07:45):
I don't know, I don't think.

Speaker 3 (07:46):
Jabba's scene was in there.
He added it because he hadrecorded talking to him and he
added it in later for futurebuild up.

Speaker 1 (07:55):
I just remember watching the scene, though with
the guy where it was just theguy They've had.
So many different versions.
I just watched these so much asa kid I feel like I remember it
.
I don't remember it.

Speaker 3 (08:04):
I remember having the original VHS of each individual
one.
If I still had them, I wouldlove it, because I did find,
when I was moving, a triple packof VHSs Like they were gold.
I don't know when they releasedthose.
I've been meaning to like Justsee if there's any edits in that
one and see how good it is,mm-hmm.

Speaker 1 (08:23):
So I want to who's like y'all's favorite character
in this movie?
Like you got, obviously you gotChewie R2, C-3PO, leia, luke,
han.

Speaker 3 (08:37):
He cusses like a sailor.

Speaker 1 (08:39):
So like who's y'all's like favorite Star Wars
character, especially from theseoriginals For the originals.

Speaker 3 (08:43):
So just solely on A New Hope, I would say I really
like Alec Guinness.

Speaker 1 (08:50):
Oh, just as like your favorite character.

Speaker 3 (08:51):
Yeah, just like his character, Because I don't know
what it is.
I do like Han, but it's thesame.
He's scoundrel, it's the samething.
But something about AlecGuinness just feels like he has
a different purpose, like amysterious thing to him.
I like it a little bit more.
Lucas just got his set path.
For him he's the destinedperson and I think it's just

(09:12):
Alec feels like he's his owndifferent thing going on.

Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, because he's like what the fuck is this movie
I'm doing here?
What is this mumbo jumbo?
Because he wasn't super intobeing in this movie at all and
he still doesn't.
He didn't like it even after.
The movie made him much money,which I have a note here.
It made him lots of money, butAlec Guinness hated Star Wars.

Speaker 3 (09:33):
I mean look what it did to their like that's all you
get asked.
Like Star Wars created thehardcore nerd annoying people
culture.

Speaker 2 (09:41):
He had to deal with the rest of it.

Speaker 3 (09:43):
You don't understand.
They're like I hate star wars,and I see why because it created
those fanboys who, like I meanit's it created a whole genre
and world of its own and it's itcreated.

Speaker 2 (09:56):
It created a subculture of porkins.

Speaker 1 (09:59):
Yes, so something guinness said so apparently he
was super professional on setand like during production and
all that.
But he, when he he was sendingletters to a friend of his
called Ann Kaufman, criticizing,criticizing the film and
everything about it.
Blow is an excerpt.
My dear Ann, I've been offereda new movie, science fiction,
which gives me pause.

(10:19):
But it is to be directed byLucas who did American Graffiti,
which makes me feel I shouldBig part fairytale rubbish but
could be interesting.
And then later he wrote newrubbish.
Dialogue reaches me every dayand none of it makes my
character clear or even bearable.
I just think of the lovelybread and that keeps me going.

(10:40):
I must off to the studios nowto work with a dwarf who has to
wash in a bidet and yourcountryman mark hamill.
And uh, harrison ford, a rangy,languid young man who is
probably intelligent and musing.
God, they make me feel so 90.
Yeah, it's pretty wild.
And uh, there's another onelike famous story, uh, told in

(11:04):
in Guinness's memoirs.
In 1979, a sweet-faced boy of12 told me he had seen Star Wars
a hundred times.
Looking into the boy's eyes Idetected madness beginning to
form and I said I would love youto do something for me and the
guy said anything, sir?
Do you think you could promiseme?

Speaker 3 (11:23):
to never see Star Wars again.

Speaker 1 (11:26):
He burst into tears.
His mother said what a dreadfulthing to say to a child and
drag the poor kid away.
Maybe she was right, but I justhope the lad now in his 30s is
not living in a fantasy world ofsecondhand childish banalities
no, he's just sitting in hisroom throwing knives at a
picture of him so should uh us30 somethings keep talking about
Star Wars?
That we've been watching sincewe were kids.

Speaker 2 (11:48):
It's only permeated every area of society.

Speaker 1 (11:53):
It really created fandom, which was cool for a
while, and now fandom is notcool anymore.

Speaker 3 (11:58):
No, because.

Speaker 1 (12:01):
Because you can't.
Just I don't know.
People were cuckoo crazy.

Speaker 3 (12:05):
They're were cuckoo crazy.
They're still cuckoo crazy,like I.
Still I'm on that side.
It's so weird because when Isit here and talk about what I
don't like, about like when Idon't like the little stuff in
the sequels, when I say I don'tlike the last jedi, and I have
someone else talking about it,it's funny because it's like now
there's different types offanboys.
There's the fanboys who don'tlike the Last Jedi because

(12:27):
they're crazy right wingers andthey're like I didn't like it
because of this and I'm like no,no no, I don't want to be
rubbed in with you.
I just don't like it because Ihave certain complaints with it,
no, no, with the fandom is whenI try and have, like my,
certain complaints, likeMandalorian.
First two seasons I was likethis is what we should be having
had the theme with the sequelscool, and then now it's like

(12:53):
we're all wearing everything out.

Speaker 1 (12:54):
Yes, everything from everything is gonna be in
everything.
It's like you know.

Speaker 3 (12:57):
Porkins, we're definitely getting in the
prequel but you know what?

Speaker 1 (13:01):
We have a damn fine movie here called Star Wars.
Why do they got to sound likedonkeys?
Dude, it's like he's myfavorite, man we used to have
imagination.

Speaker 2 (13:14):
The sad people in the Javas are my favorite.
Yeah, love those guys.

Speaker 1 (13:18):
This movie, just we did it.
Damn it fucking looks good itdoes.

Speaker 3 (13:23):
That's literally five of my notes is this movie and
how it looks.

Speaker 1 (13:26):
It's like every time I turn it on.
You know, and you know I getexcited when the scrolls happen.
It's scrolling through thewords and stuff.
You know those things.

Speaker 3 (13:36):
That I never read as a child.

Speaker 1 (13:38):
And then like man, as soon as you see that giant ship
, it's just like I'm a kid again.

Speaker 3 (13:44):
It's amazing alright, hold on a second.
My first note okay sorry that'sme closing my book.
I said that opening text crawlso good brings back kid memories
.

Speaker 1 (13:56):
It's exactly what I said when people used to read
you know it's funny that Returnof the Jedi is my least favorite
of the originals, because thatwas the one I watched as a kid a
lot.
Yes, my mom would always get alibrary.
I didn't get no stupid books.
What do you think?
I'm a nerd, but I'd always likeExplain why you can't talk yeah
exactly, you're absolutelycorrect.
But I'd always get like a movieand I got the third movie all

(14:21):
the time, to the point wheremom's like stop Watch anything
else.

Speaker 3 (14:26):
So think about that, how often you watch that, but
not to be that person who.
It's weird how there's thatline of the person who looks and
lives in that Star Wars world,like that kid who Alec Guinness
met, versus someone whoappreciates the movie and can
separate it and just enjoy it.
I wonder what just tips youover in your worldview to change
that.

Speaker 1 (14:46):
Because, Well, I mean , that's how I am.
I just like I do love all themovies.
I watch them all.
I probably won't really watchRise of Skywalker.
That's just like the bane ofall creativity.

Speaker 3 (14:56):
You know, even though I have Last Jedi as my last one
, I have seen that one more thanI have seen Rise of Skywalker.
I have seen that one more thanI have seen Rise of Skywalker.
I have only seen Rise ofSkywalker one time in theater.

Speaker 1 (15:05):
You should try to rewatch it.
It makes you hate just movies.

Speaker 3 (15:08):
Well, so the problem with that is that you know how
like I watch stuff and like Ican remember it for a while.
Well, there's been a lot ofclips that have just popped up
from the like Rise of Skywalker,and I'm like I.

(15:29):
It's like say whatever you wantabout the last jedi, but at
least there was vision bysomebody I wish, instead of just
like there's some good scenes.
I went on the internet and Isaw what people hated.
Let me try it there's.
There's a lot there.
I think if ryan johnson got to,at least if he got to continue
and do this the next one rises,not rise skywalker, fucking rip
dude.
It would have been something Ieven though I had my complaints
for Rise of Skywalker or LastJedi I feel like if he got to
continue doing a vision, that'swhat they should have done you.

Speaker 1 (15:53):
You get a few complaints about Last Jedi.
I have a lot.
You have all the prequels infront of it.
Those are like some of thebiggest garbage on the screen.
There's a difference.

Speaker 3 (16:03):
I enjoy the prequels mainly because they're just the
early jedi stuff yeah, theblocking, directing, writing,
all that.
So you're talking about stuffthat like is someone who watches
it as a movie but I'm watchingit as just enjoying it, for I
watched it as a kid a lot.
Those are the ones I watched alot.
After watching all of those youknow, I remember being that I
was probably that I could justsay I anything, because when I

(16:24):
was a kid watching PhantomMenace in the theaters, I was
laughing my ass off to Jar JarBinks.
I bet you those hardcorefanboys are just sitting here
like yes.

Speaker 1 (16:35):
It's just like so boring.
All of them, all the prequels.

Speaker 3 (16:38):
Hey, you know what the problem was in the first one
Trade wards and tariffs and allthe problems with the blockades
and stuff.
It's almost like they canemulate real life.

Speaker 1 (16:46):
That's the worst part of it.
Now it's like, damn now, Ican't even find the funny.

Speaker 3 (16:50):
You love Andor because of the realistic take.
It does everything.
That's literally what the thingis for the first one.

Speaker 1 (16:55):
Political politics.
I didn't even finish, andor, Ithought you.

Speaker 2 (16:59):
I've been wanting to the Bad Batch was cool.

Speaker 3 (17:02):
I like the Bad Batch.
I don't know if I ever gotaround to finishing that, though
.
Oh, they announced I don't knowif you like it they announced a
mall animated show, mall DarthMaul oh, I thought it was like
oh damn, I love a nice mallmovie, animated mall show.

Speaker 1 (17:17):
I made it.

Speaker 3 (17:17):
Mallrats.
But Star Wars, hell, yeah, nothanks if you have, have you
done Mall Rides yeah?

Speaker 2 (17:24):
we did Mall.

Speaker 3 (17:24):
Rides.
I wish I had done that, becauseafter watching it I was like
this is so strange, because mygirlfriend was like why it's
like?
This is Stan Lee there's not aline.
Really.
Do you know what this would bein modern day?
He would be swarmed.
It's that clicking moment ofhow much mainstream superhero

(17:46):
nerd stuff has come.
It's like that's an eye opener,right there.

Speaker 1 (17:50):
Yeah, it's pretty wild.
So, all right, so we keep goingoff topic Probably won't really
do too many facts Everybodyknows everything about Star Wars
, yeah, so I guess it's like,whenever you watch this movie,
like, what is it about it thatmakes you like it?
Right, Like, what is itspecifically for you that you

(18:12):
like?
Why you like it?
Cause I mean, it's pretty forme, especially now when you look
back at all the other star Wars.
It's so simple, cut and dry,just like you get good actors.
It looks awesome and it's likeit's.
There's a lot of mumbo jumbo init, but it's really not that
bad, Especially compared to likeprequels and stuff like that,

(18:34):
and even like compared tosuperheroes movies.
Now, it's just like what arey'all saying anymore?
And it's like even this moviewith a bunch of like, just like
gibberish.
It's just, it's simple, it'scut, it's dry.
You just got here's your hero.
He's not a hero yet.
He's like wants to be going onthe hero's journey, but he's
like, oh, I don't want to.

(18:54):
And then I do.

Speaker 2 (18:55):
It's like literally every hero's tale, and then he
gives everyone shit for notwanting to do the same.

Speaker 1 (18:59):
But yeah.
But then you put all these dopegreat charismatic actors around
them and it just fucking goesright.
You have a dope littlelightsaber battle by two
geriatric men and it's wonderful.
I love it.
I love the more realisticlightsaber battles for me.

Speaker 3 (19:18):
I don't really like them.
That's not really realistic.

Speaker 1 (19:20):
Well, I don't like the prequels where they're just
like whoo, Just throwing theirswords in the air.
I'm like, why are we fightinglike?

Speaker 2 (19:27):
this Flipping around a lot, it's called.

Speaker 1 (19:29):
you know they're Jedi Knights.
They're not Jedi like I don'teven know what you'd call that
type of sword fighting.

Speaker 3 (19:35):
They all have.
Have you Like parkour?
I wanted to go.

Speaker 1 (19:40):
I don't know.
I just don't like the flippysword battles Like it's to me.
I'm just like there's no thrillin it.
For me, it's just like this isso choreographed, it's whatever
for me.

Speaker 3 (19:52):
There's no emotion in it.
I don't believe in the overchoreographed.
If you say over choreographedis a thing, then you hate John
Wick, cause that is what that isOver chore, who knows the role
very well.

Speaker 1 (20:01):
But they're like using guns and stuff, Uh-huh.

Speaker 3 (20:03):
So it's so much cooler If it was fucking John
Wick and being someone in StarWars, you would say oh, this is
great.
It's the same thing.
Lightsabers are fightingstances.

Speaker 1 (20:14):
There's a complete difference between the fighting
in John Wick versus the fightingin the prequels.
How so it's like more like abarbaric feeling, which is
because it's guns and stuff, no,even just like punching and
stuff, like in lightsabershitting.
It's like, it's just like andit's like.
To me that's just notentertaining.

(20:34):
It's because they're deflecting.
I didn't like it.

Speaker 3 (20:37):
Have you ever so?
When I used to do karate, youknow what you had to do to
display your skills.
To get another belt, you had todo stances, and if you do the
same, thing with.

Speaker 1 (20:49):
Oh, I'm just telling it, I think it looks like poopoo
when I see him fightingprequels you go out there and do
what they did, then see howwell I know that's hard, but
it's just like to me, likevisually, I'm just like.
I mean, how about y'all likejust make this more interesting
for me to watch?
I, I mean, I get that as a kid.
It's really like whoa Yoda'sflipping and I'm like it's hard

(21:09):
to hit someone.

Speaker 3 (21:11):
Yoda has a lightsaber .

Speaker 1 (21:13):
Why would Yoda have a lightsaber?
Why is it tiny?
Why wouldn't he?

Speaker 3 (21:15):
just be the ultimate force guy.

Speaker 1 (21:18):
To me that makes more sense than like I'm a tiny guy
Can we?
Just crush him like a tin, canyou have?

Speaker 3 (21:23):
to focus, then you have other people's wills you're
fighting against as well.

Speaker 1 (21:26):
I just think it'd be like whenever he goes against
Count Dooku.
It'd just be more interestingif it was a force battle instead
of like a life saver battle.

Speaker 3 (21:32):
But they're like there's no, like he couldn't
beat him in a force battle.
But the thing is, is thatAnakin the chosen one with how
strong he is in the force?
But there's only so much youcan do when someone's about to
come at your face going me, me,me, me, me, me, me, me, me, me
me, because you have toconcentrate and focus.
Can't rip him apart one by one,because someone who's a Jedi
could be weaker in the force,but a very strong combatant with

(21:56):
a lightsaber that's what MaceWindu was is that he was able to
be Palpatine Nice.

Speaker 1 (22:04):
I like the lightsaber battle on this one as much as I
would love to see Samuel LJackson come back.

Speaker 3 (22:10):
Please stop bringing back dead characters For.

Speaker 2 (22:12):
God's sake, stop it.

Speaker 3 (22:19):
They don't do that.
I just said Maul got a new show.

Speaker 2 (22:21):
We're not bringing him back.

Speaker 3 (22:24):
He died, he was a teenager.
He's got pimples.
No, he's, it's gonna be afterrevenge.
We're gonna have a pizzarestaurant and he's slicing he's
already got red face, I mean.

Speaker 1 (22:33):
So yeah, so what do y'all like about this movie?
We got in a rant, sorry.

Speaker 3 (22:38):
I mean probably similar to you, yeah.

Speaker 1 (22:40):
I kind of said everything.
I'm sorry well.

Speaker 3 (22:42):
Visual effects the story is like it works.
Everything feels real.
My big.
The other thing I had was whenwe're on the desert planet, I'm
like man, you don't feel likethis is a real desert planet it
feels like it's character it'sreal sand dunes, versus what we
have now is the set and the CGIstuff in the background.
It's it does.
I was like anytime I watchnewer Star Wars and we're on a

(23:03):
sand planet.
I'm like, I feel like it'salien.
So I feel like they're on analien world, but I also don't
feel like it's real.
We're on here on this planetthat we'd never fucking leave
anymore.
Now, yeah, I felt like it wasmore realistic.
It had character and C-3PO.
When he was getting a bath Iwas like you know that's a good
point, because I thought youwere looking fucking dirty man.

Speaker 1 (23:23):
Yeah, so we'll talk about a little bit.
So like Lucas struggled to getthe film made Right, so in 1973,
george Lucas directed AmericanGraffiti.
Have y'all watched it?
Nope, it's got like the leadStuff like that, the main
character from that I think weneed to talk about this.
It's like it's a coming of agedrama set in the 1950s American,

(23:45):
american, americana, sorry, andit was just kind of like a
movie that takes place over likeone day.

Speaker 2 (23:50):
I haven't.
I've seen parts of it.

Speaker 1 (23:53):
So it had a budget of like $777,000.
It made over 140 million.
Nice.
So, george Lucas, just likebudget to gross ratio.
It was actually twice assuccessful as Star Wars.
Nice, just in terms of budget.
So, following this success,united Artists asked Lucas if he

(24:13):
had any more ideas and he toldhim about a space opera.
That's a bit like a Western anda bit like James Bond.
Hell, yeah, agree, space opera,the James Bond part has got to
be Han Solo.
Yeah, that's.

Speaker 3 (24:25):
No, he's the Western part.
The James Bond would be whatAlec Guinness did he's secretly
trying to take the bass out.
I could see his more role beingthe.
I guess I'd see it.

Speaker 1 (24:35):
Ford's character, Han Solo, comes off more James.

Speaker 2 (24:40):
Bond hey.

Speaker 1 (24:41):
Leia hey, Leia, you want to come back.

Speaker 3 (24:44):
I guess it's just a load and it's just like we need
to nerd every time.
I guess it's because I see myyour interpretations Like most
James Bond I've ever seen IsDaniel Craig.
Yeah, so my interpretation OfJames Bond Is not the want to
have sex with everybody all thetime and he's more reserved and

(25:04):
kind of calm, but he does go outand shoot.
That's why I think AlecGuinness.
But I guess it depends on yourversion of James Bond that you
grew up with.
I was mostly Pierce Brosnan howmany movies did he have?
Like three.
I just remember the one wherehe's like surfing with the
fucking tent thing and I waslike oh wow, these effects are
terrible.
Yes, they are, can't be goldeneye which they're surfing with

(25:26):
the fucking tent thing and I waslike oh wow, these effects are
terrible.
Yes, they are.

Speaker 1 (25:28):
Can't be golden eye, which they're coming out with
another one, oh no.
So to continue where I was atat the so then, at that point he
was like, oh, I'll turn in mylike 14 page treatment called
the Star Wars, and UA UnitedArtists passed on it, so did
Universal, so did Disney.
There was a division ofParamount called the Director's
Company that was owned byFrancis Ford Coppola, godfather,

(25:52):
William Freakin, exorcist, andPeter Bogdanovich, which I can't
remember what he did and Ireally hate that.
I don't.
He brought it to them andthey're like I don't think so.
They didn't believe in him.
And then Lucas then pitched theidea to the head of 20th
Century Fox, alan Ladd.
On that pitch, ladd says I hadno idea what George was talking

(26:12):
about, but I knew that he wastalented, so I invested in him
and he greenlit the film with an$8 million budget.

Speaker 2 (26:18):
You know, the picture I have in my head of Alan Ladd
is a boy in a sailor suit.

Speaker 1 (26:23):
I'm the best lad around.

Speaker 3 (26:24):
Damn.
That's exactly what I thoughttoo, with a lollipop.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (26:30):
I like it, and then apparently Brian De Palma helped
him out a lot.
He did like Carrie, the firstMission Impossible blowout that
you hate.
Mission Impossible was amazinghe really helped him with the
film and, I guess, the lastthing I know like.
So Lucas agreed to get paid$150,000 by Fox for writing and

(26:54):
directing the film.
It's not a huge amount at thetime.
On two conditions Lucas wouldget full rights over any sequels
to Star Wars Smart.
He got rights to all Star Warsmerchandise Toys, books, video
games, clothing.

Speaker 3 (27:06):
I love that so much.
I thought it wasn't Because, ifyou look at it, they're like
sure who cares?
And since 1977, george Lucashas made $6 billion off of toys,
video games and stuff like that, but then he sold it for what?
$4 billion or more.

Speaker 1 (27:19):
Yeah, so a total of like 10 billion Nice.
But yeah, I mean there's a lotof other stuff that we could go
into, but you know, you got anyfacts about Ralph McQuire?

Speaker 3 (27:32):
I can't remember his name, I've drawn a blank.
It's the guy who did mainly allthe art because if you look at
the concept art for 3PO and them, it had more of that definite
what people thought the futurewas going to look like in the
50s People in the 50s thoughtthe future was going to look
like he had more of that stylewith drawing it, Especially with
3PO and how they definitelycarried it over.

(27:55):
But his design for Vader Ireally like it.
His mask was a lot more angularand sharp.
I couldn't probably translateit to real world is why it
looked like that, but never seenit, that sounds cool.
They released a figure likeyears ago with, like the Ralph
McQuarrie, I can't remember.
I really love it.
It's just concept, for it wasreally neat.

(28:16):
Hell yeah.

Speaker 1 (28:18):
I had something on here for it.

Speaker 3 (28:20):
You can do control F to find stuff.

Speaker 1 (28:23):
Concept artists and sound designers played big roles
.
Ralph McQuarrie was the conceptartist of the movie and
designed, among other things,darth Vader, stormtroopers, the
two droids, chewbacca, theX-Wings, tie Fighters, star
Destroyers.
Fox included Ralph McQuire'sconcept art to help visualize
the idea.
Alan said without that artthere was no way it would have

(28:46):
gotten past the board.
So McQuire's importance to StarWars is huge and there is some
pictures that go with it thatyou know like show, like the
lightsabers, like looked alittle bit different when he was
called Starkiller.
He had like more of a suit withlike almost like a gas mask
type.
Look to it and stuff.
It's kind of badass darth vaderlooks pretty much the same.
Um, there's also visuals of uh,stormtroopers with lightsabers.

(29:09):
Um, and then the sound designerwas ben burt and he created
pretty much all the now iconiceffects in star wars, like
blasters, the breathing r2 beepsand whistles.
Chewy's growls lightsabers isgreen.
Burt won his first of four osOscars on Star Wars.
He also won for Raiders of theLost Ark, et, extra Threshold,
indiana Jones, last Crusade now.
So George Lucas thought themovie was gonna be like terrible

(29:34):
.
He thought nobody was gonnawatch it, nobody was gonna like
it.
So he took a trip to Hawaiiwith Steven Spielberg during the
initial release of Star Wars.
That's where they came up withRaiders of the Lost Ark, oh yeah
.
But then he got word that, like, star Wars is a mega hit and
he's like I'm a genius, youthink that inflated him a little
bit.
Well, I mean, he still did agood job on the next one.

Speaker 3 (29:56):
Yeah.

Speaker 1 (29:57):
He just like I don't know if it was just like on
Return of the Jedi.
He's like damn son, that toymoney is great.

Speaker 3 (30:05):
I think I could see like what you told me, because
wasn't you said his wife waslike a ghost.
Writer.
Co-writer.

Speaker 1 (30:12):
Well, his right.
His wife ended up fixing thisfilm, so he originally had a
different editor for this filmand then, like this, had a lot
of the.
If you go back and look atdeleted scenes on it, like the
whole beginning is being likethe battle at the beginning,
where Darth Vader's walking inon Leia and like there's shots
and stuff that's being intercutwith him Talk Luke talking to

(30:36):
his friends, like the guy thathe meets up later with the bigs,
yeah, and it's just, if youlook at that dialogue, he Mark
Hamill's terrible in.
It's just, oh, it's a poorlydirected shot and everything.
He's like trying to be drunkand it's so bad.
Um, and that was intercut with,uh, the beginning of the movie
and there was a lot of pacingissues.
So she came in and, like herand, um, some of the editors

(31:00):
that helped with, like Brian DePalma Brian De Palma huge Star
Wars, by the way Like we owe alot to him as well Like she,
those three like sat down andedited it and made it faster
paced and just got cleaned it up.
Oh, yeah, yeah, she's.
She's supposedly the woman thatfixed Star Wars.
She saved Star Wars Wars, shesaved Star Wars and they got

(31:27):
divorced, like I think, afterthe second movie or in the
middle of the second movie orafter it was done for the
production, and then we got therest of George Lucas's Star Wars
and it shows you how much Idon't know.

Speaker 3 (31:36):
I think that shows you more of like, how much this
was like.
It's one of those like you see,someone who, like, when someone
leaves a project, you don'tit's like man, it just feels
like something's kind ofdifferent maybe the last person
that could tell him hey, george,that's a bad idea.
Yeah, no one was probablywilling to tell him no, because
look at people, idolize them andthen, like you, always need
someone around you.
That's why you always see thejoke of someone saying I want to

(31:57):
keep this person around becausethey are willing to tell me how
it is.
They're the person who can keepyou grounded to see your
mistakes.

Speaker 1 (32:04):
Yeah, A couple things before we hop into the film.
Some notes.
I had R2D2, c-3po.
They're totally our audiencesurrogate and I love that about
them.
It's how you come into the filmwith them.
Essentially the firstcharacters you meet.
They just kind of are along forthe ride for the whole time.
They do a little few things andit will.
They kind of save everybody'sass a lot.

(32:24):
But I love that.
They're two great characters.

Speaker 3 (32:27):
I love how a sassy bitch that's C-3PO is just
sitting there like bonking.

Speaker 1 (32:31):
R2-D2 over the head all the time.
He's so sensitive.
I love that there it feels likethere's actual stakes in this
movie, um, it's just like it'shard not to watch this and think
like, oh, three movies camebefore it and then it's like
when you watch those threemovies, it's like it doesn't
really feel like there's thatmany stakes.

(32:51):
There's like maybe like acouple like all of clone wars.
I feel like there's no stakesin that movie.
There's like you know, with thephantom menace there's
obviously qui-gon, um, and thenlike the the end of uh, revenge
of the sith, there's.
It feels like there's stakesbetween the two actors, um, but
outside of that, there feelslike there's no sex during any
of those movies.

Speaker 2 (33:12):
For me, yeah, that's a personal thing.
This one, it's like millions ofpeople are gonna die.
Yeah, I mean, they blew up aplanet.
It's like holy shit.

Speaker 1 (33:19):
Um, also something I like aliens speak their own
language.
They're not just talkingEnglish like they do in.

Speaker 2 (33:23):
Like the rest of the movies outside of the first
three, and if you ever stop tosay, how can they understand
each other?
There's always someone there tosay shut up.

Speaker 1 (33:32):
Yeah yeah, it's like anytime C-3PO starts talking,
it's like dude, we shouldfucking shut up.
I love that Princess Leia has alot of agency in this movie.
Yes, and it's like compared tothe prequels, like Padme is just
mostly a wet blanket.

Speaker 3 (33:49):
Well, it is weird how Leia has so much more get up
and go versus.
I guess if you look at itthey're trying to draw that line
of, like Padme grew up, she islike straight up a princess and
political versus Leia who alsoBell or Dana, was a senator

(34:10):
right.

Speaker 1 (34:11):
So, what makes her a prince?

Speaker 3 (34:13):
Well, she was a senator probably for, uh, well,
like, maybe like a senator oflike cause you know how like we
have senators to represent it.
Maybe he was a senator torepresent them, but maybe he was
higher up in on Alderaan intheir own political world.

Speaker 1 (34:28):
I was like we had nine movies.
We never figured that out.
What's your point?

Speaker 3 (34:32):
the one thing you could draw for like Leia's
character is that her other halfof her genes is Anakin yeah,
also love.

Speaker 1 (34:41):
I love how whiny and bitchy Luke is and literally
Harrison Ford is a smoke show.
And just if he wasn't in thismovie, I don't think it would be
nearly, as I don't think Iwould have liked it as much,
even as a kid it's always beenmy favorite.
I loved it.

Speaker 3 (34:57):
I loved his best in the way he carried a blaster, it
was.
I remember reading a thing.
It was talking about MarkHamill applying for the role and
I think he saw Harrison Fordand he's like, oh, he's gonna be
the leading character.
He's like, damn it, he's morehandsome than me.

Speaker 1 (35:12):
It's like wait, oh man.
And then it's like I bet,during the movie though I'm
gonna be the quirky little, likethe quirky guy.
That's like the hero, though,and it's like Han Solo's like
quirkier and everything than him.

Speaker 2 (35:23):
It's like oh okay, I guess I'm just.
They handed him the role oflittle bitch.
Yeah, oh, so.

Speaker 1 (35:27):
I'm just a whiny, like blank sheet of a character.
But I mean, that's how mostheroes are.
When they start, they're justlike someone's, like bland
little guy, and then they'relike I'm just a boy.

Speaker 3 (35:38):
I don't.

Speaker 2 (35:39):
He says he doesn't want to farm.

Speaker 3 (35:41):
He says that.
And then, when Obi-Wan presentshim the opportunity he's been
talking about leaving, he's likewell, I can't leave, I was like
oh, so you all talk.

Speaker 2 (35:48):
I bet Obi-Wan killed his uncle.

Speaker 1 (35:51):
And had to get that journey started somehow.

Speaker 3 (35:54):
He just gave Disney an idea.

Speaker 1 (35:55):
Another thing is that Luke is able to fly and do a
bunch of stuff with almost notraining or showing it visually
on TV and no one had a problemwith that, yeah, no, when I'm
going back and watch to that not.
I was like he blew up a DeathStar and people are complaining
about Ray.

Speaker 3 (36:10):
The only thing you can say about that is the force
and that's the you're, becausethere's always that catch all
thing like that's all he did inthis like right to the same
thing.

Speaker 1 (36:17):
Everybody's mad at the force of the gaps.

Speaker 3 (36:27):
Well, well, people like playing like devil's
advocate is that when you watchstar wars is a different time.
You're trying, you can't showeverything, obviously, so it's
like as time goes on, you'relike, okay, like we would need
to see, because there's alsobeen like a lot of in between,
like in between, uh, a new hopeand all that, all this lore that
come out to show luke'straining.
But, as you like, okay, likewhen we get into newer movies,
we need to see the training thatis established, because the
prequels show training thathappened.

(36:49):
Anakin doesn't show up againuntil Attack of the Clones.
He had like 10 years oftraining.
That's why everyone's I thinkit's people's wanting to see
training is that at least yousee an Empire Strikes Back it
connects the ideas yeah, but Imean for Force Awakens being the
first time we meet Rey.

Speaker 1 (37:07):
it's the same thing as Luke in A New Hope Everybody
had a problem.

Speaker 3 (37:10):
Oh no, you're completely right.
I thought you were saying likeno, no, no.

Speaker 1 (37:13):
this I'm like no when .

Speaker 3 (37:15):
Rey starts flying the Millennium Falcon, I was like
so she knows it flies, she'sflown it before.
Yeah, that's why she's likefamiliar.
And when she starts to fly theship, she's like I can do this,
I can do this.

Speaker 1 (37:28):
She's obviously not confident, yeah, and she did
have like a lightsaber battlewith a Sith, essentially so.

Speaker 3 (37:35):
I can understand that that wouldn't be my problem but
she closed the force and he washurt.

Speaker 1 (37:41):
Oh yeah, dude, so it's okay.

Speaker 3 (37:42):
When I first watched that, my thing was like well,
everyone has certain quirks offorce abilities.
What if she's communicating andshe's able to channel like they
did in Rise of Skywalker?
She channels other.
It would have been more cool ifwe saw she channeled someone in
that moment and also it'sprobably Luke, it was probably
Luke, it was his lightsaber.
Yeah, of all the other stuffthat they did.

(38:03):
That was I had, it was cool.
But you also try and think of.
Kylo was shot.
Yeah, he was weak.
And then her channeling it.
In that moment sheunderestimated him, he
underestimated her.
You can kind of connect thedots to get it away, but they
didn't explain it later.

Speaker 1 (38:18):
That would have been Also last thing before we get
into it Fucking gong droid.

Speaker 2 (38:24):
Are you kidding me?
That's one of my notes.
Gonk, gonk, gonk, gonk, gonk.
Is that the one that looks likea trash can?
Yeah, and also.

Speaker 1 (38:32):
McClunky baby, what?
Which one?
Greedo just fucking saysMcClunky and then just shot.
It's the best.
Oh, the captions, didn't he'slike McClunky.

Speaker 3 (38:40):
I was using my little home server to stream it, so my
captions weren't off for theirstuff.

Speaker 1 (38:44):
It's just like he just out loud before shoots says
McClunky, and I was like Ican't wait for that original
version to come out.
And everyone's going to be likelook.

Speaker 3 (38:53):
I could finally die in peace.
It shows Hanshaw first, whicheveryone will not.
Shut the fuck up about.

Speaker 1 (38:58):
Let's be real, he changed it, he did, he changed
it.

Speaker 3 (39:01):
He did and it looks terrible.

Speaker 2 (39:02):
And him saying it doesn't.

Speaker 1 (39:03):
His neck goes it's like what are we doing?

Speaker 3 (39:05):
It's a clear cut and I'm like dude, why are you?
He's like I don't want him toshow.
That shows me a little bit intoinside of Lucas.
He's the rogue.

Speaker 1 (39:12):
I don't understand.

Speaker 3 (39:20):
He's supposed to reality Cause I'm like dude, why
are you trying to do this?
And then like yeah like he'scause.
They're trying to say like hewouldn't do that he it's too
cold blood, it's like no, it'sfine.

Speaker 1 (39:29):
And he just he had Luke, who's never killed a
person in his life, shootingpeople and not even flinching
about it.
He had all three movies plannedout.
No he did not.

Speaker 2 (39:42):
Yeah, well, Luke may not have killed people, but he
was killing a lot of innocentcreatures on his planet.
That is true.
Yeah, for real.

Speaker 1 (39:49):
He's just an asshole teenager.
It's just wild to me that he'dwant to change Han shooting
first to make him like a betterguy, when it's like his
character arc through this moviedoesn't have to be accurate is
that he becomes a good guy andis there to save at the end he
literally is in the rebellion inthe second one.
I don't understand it's okaythat he killed some guy that was
about to kill him, yeah nobodycares.

Speaker 2 (40:10):
I don't understand especially everyone in the bar.
Nobody gave a shit.

Speaker 1 (40:13):
Yeah, he was like a devil may care type of character
and now he, like, has friendsin a family and it's just like.
It's like it's the point of hischaracter that he wrote in 1976
or seven and he just forgotafter he made other bad movies.

Speaker 3 (40:32):
It's just, no one told him no, and he always
thought his ideas were good,yeah All right, y'all ready.

Speaker 1 (40:37):
We're almost an hour in, so we better start.

Speaker 3 (40:38):
Yes, we should All right, do a text scroll.

Speaker 1 (40:43):
Lucasfilm A Lucas joint, because Spike Lee calls
his movies the Spike Lee joints.

Speaker 3 (40:50):
So it's like a Lucas joint.
How high are?

Speaker 1 (40:52):
you getting If you just add a joint after someone's
a white guy, like a shortlittle big white guy.
It's just funny to me, I don'tknow.
Let's do some cello.
Amid a galactic civil war.
Rebel Alliance is operatingfrom a hidden base and have been
securing victories against theevil galactic empire.
Rebel Alliance spies havestolen plans to the Death Star

(41:14):
I'm sure they won't make a movieabout it A colossal armored
space station built by thetyrannical galactic empire that
is capable of destroying entireplanets.
By the tyrannical galacticempire that is capable of
destroying entire planets.
Imperial Senator Leia Organa,carrie Fisher of Alderaan
secretly a rebel leader hasobtained the schematics and is
rushing home to the rebels'secret base.
The plans can save the peopleand restore freedom to the

(41:36):
galaxy.

Speaker 2 (41:38):
Nice, pretty simple.
You know that original scrollwas six paragraphs long.

Speaker 3 (41:42):
Was it you said that, so I bet they won't.
That original scroll was sixparagraphs long, Was it?
You sit there and say I betthey won't make a movie about it
.
Out of all the standalones,that's the best one.

Speaker 2 (41:48):
I want to see the part where Leah's on the death
star trying to get the planslike dressed like in her gold
bikini or whatever, just likehey, I wonder what the inside of
this ship looks like yeahspeaking of which Carrie Fisher
attractive yes, nah, I mean notnow.

Speaker 3 (42:05):
She's dead just like Luke's parents in the Star Wars
movie she is yeah.
I don't know like everyone Iwatched Return of the Jedi,
never was like oh, it didn'ttrigger the I wanna be a man now
.
It never, it never triggeredthat.
I never thought she wasattractive.
Swing, honestly, put someclothes on it.
Never, it never triggered that.
I never thought she wasattractive.

Speaker 1 (42:25):
Swing, honestly, put some clothes on also, when it
comes to Leia, people in thismovie call her Leia and Leia,
yeah, I noticed that.

Speaker 3 (42:33):
Well, I mean, it's the first movie.
It's like which is it?
Can you imagine get it?

Speaker 1 (42:36):
fucking right.
George cause like.

Speaker 3 (42:38):
I don't know much about, like the sci-fi world
pre-Star Wars and what it was on, you got Space Odyssey and
everything Coming up and seeinga Star Destroyer.
That's like.
That's just laying it out oflike.
Because, like, think about,like, what would you see
previously for sci-fi movies?
Either you don't see the shipon the outside and you're just
seeing the internals.
This is establishing so muchlike in one go if you look at

(43:01):
what this influences and whatcomes up later.
Because if you think previouslyI don't know what it looked
like, what previous like spacestuff, it was like round UFOs.
I feel like he set a standardof like let's explore what we
can imagine a space vehicleslike on the outside.

Speaker 2 (43:16):
Yeah, space battles.
Yeah, it's, it's.
It's made so much of an impact.
Have you seen the spaceshipthat Katy Perry went in a few
days ago?
Looks like a penis.

Speaker 3 (43:25):
Does it?
Well, it's Jeff Bezos' wife.
Well, most rockets do look likethis.
And they're wondering why arewe getting so much crap for
flying into space guys?
What's the big deal?

Speaker 1 (43:33):
It's like I don't know, because you're letting a
millionaire spend $50 million togo up there.

Speaker 3 (43:40):
Yeah, that's so cool.

Speaker 1 (43:42):
I don't give a fuck, though you know what would
actually be cool if you sent,like you know, like our up and
coming scientists and inspiredthem to be more scientific and
like see a cool journey.

Speaker 3 (43:49):
If Katy Perry went up to space, we're definitely
getting more porn soon in space.

Speaker 1 (43:53):
It's just like pop stars and just like rich people
that it's just like put it in myFacebook feed anymore, but
anyways so.
Leia's ship is intercepted andboarded by an Imperial star to
shore under the command of theruthless Darth Vader.
James Earl Jones voices Lovethe big ship.
Also, when we first see DarthVader something I like about

(44:15):
this, just to show that it'skind of like a low budget, like
you know, bootstrap type ofmovie the mask is like a lot
less like Darth Vader's notshiny, no, it's all like.
His mask is kind of like it'sgot some like texture and
texture to it, versus when yougo back and immediately whenever
I watch A New Hope and you gostraight to Empire Strikes Back

(44:37):
bro Darth Vader looking slick.

Speaker 2 (44:40):
I bet he's got like a bunch of like how Batman has a
bunch of suits.
Maybe he's got a different oflike how Batman has a bunch of
suits maybe he's got a different.

Speaker 1 (44:45):
I'd love to see him just put like a like green one
on it's like.
So what do you think it is StPatrick's Day?

Speaker 2 (44:53):
no pinching.
I love this Vader going arounddoing force pinching.

Speaker 3 (45:00):
What about have you ever seen I don't know if you've
seen Vader's original voicebefore Earl Jones?

Speaker 1 (45:06):
yeah, I've heard it it's like a British, it's a
British guy and he's like I wantthe Imperial Commander, and now
that's right away.

Speaker 3 (45:13):
He's like oi governor it's way different and like
bringing in James Earl Jones thegoat.

Speaker 1 (45:19):
Yeah, like the damn guy's got a voice, it's it
changes.

Speaker 3 (45:24):
It's just those little things you think about if
it didn't go.
This, this didn't have, this isone of those movies of just
influence and what it could havechanged, because I feel like
with this movie is the onlyreason we got that Dune sequel
to or original Dune yeah, soit's great the Empire ships all
carry like heavily armoredstormtroopers.

Speaker 1 (45:44):
This is actually one of the few movies where
stormtroopers can actually hitthings, which is fun, nice.
Just never the actual heroesBecause, like at the beginning,
they wipe out the crew that'strying to like stop them from
getting to Princess.

Speaker 2 (45:54):
Leia.

Speaker 1 (45:54):
They've got plot armor.

Speaker 3 (45:55):
Yeah Well they also mentioned, like later.
Like you know, when they say wehave tracking on them, that's
why they didn't hit them,because they were letting them
get away, because they wanted tosee where they would lead to
the base.
But it doesn't explain throughthe rest of the series.
But in this one you can say oh,that makes sense.
I could see connecting the dotshere.
Sure.

Speaker 1 (46:11):
But we have, like Leia is going to be taken
prisoner, but before the capture, leia inserts the plans in our
R2-D2 droid along with a message.
I can't wait to see what thatmessage is.
I'm sure we won't see itthrough the course of a bunch of
movies.
The droids R2-D2 and the whinyass bitch, c-3po, escape with
the plans on an escape pod,crashing on a nearby planet of

(46:33):
Tatooine.
Just love that.
Like R2-D2 is like just ignoreC-3PO, and I love it.
He's just like oh, whatever, Ijust got to do my mission, c-3po
, I'm going to try to stop youat every single chance.
He's like I'm not going to goin there.
He's the voice of reason Toomuch reason he's never right and
Darth Vader is going to sendhis stormtroopers.

(46:53):
But just like the reveal oflike oh, there's all the smoke
in the room, and then DarthVader walks out Sorry, just
smoked a fatty.
Yeah, we're gonna take yourshit, bro.
You hear his voice and you'rejust like oh, this is
immediately a great villain andthen he also like his own people
.

Speaker 3 (47:12):
He picks him up and says like you failed me and
tosses him and it's.

Speaker 1 (47:17):
It's also really great how like spunky Leia is
and just like fuck off, dude, Iain't talking to you it's great.

Speaker 3 (47:24):
You know why she has that spunk.

Speaker 1 (47:25):
It's cause she met Obi-Wan, yeah, when she was a
child well, uh, luke Harrisonand Carrie Fisher, you know like
during the set of this, they'reall just doing cocaine and
having sex.

Speaker 3 (47:35):
Hell yeah, dude, they all had plenty of spunk that
photo still pops up with herhand on there and her longer
little binky I'm like.
Can we stop?

Speaker 1 (47:42):
yeah, no, it's great dude.

Speaker 2 (47:45):
Drugs are fun cocaine well, just the idea of like
that's.
I never knew that, but that'samazing yeah we gotta do this
parsec and what?

Speaker 1 (47:55):
12 castle runs, or whatever it is parsecs so, um, I
love this because R2-D2 wantsto go one way.
C-3po's being a little bish anddoesn't he's like?
Fine, I'll leave you to die.
See ya, R2-D2.

Speaker 3 (48:07):
I love that person and I'm like man C-3PO you move
less, like you were more bipedaland you feel like you can move
less than the fucking rollerdroid.

Speaker 1 (48:16):
I can't go where there's rocks.

Speaker 2 (48:17):
It's like but it falls over.
He can't really get up.

Speaker 1 (48:20):
He just goes and you rot up his ass, yeah, and then
C-3PO does his best.
Um uh Green Day impersonationfrom uh American Idiot.
He walks alone.
It was a good joke.
Whenever else at eight in themorning, it was funny.

Speaker 3 (48:36):
I love his joke of just like that fool, he tricked
me to go this way, yeah um, yougot the giant alien or the giant
snake skeleton.

Speaker 1 (48:44):
It's really good.

Speaker 2 (48:45):
I think it's because when they go to Mos Eisley you
see those big old things thatthrows the Jawas off.
Yeah, it kind of looks like oneof those.

Speaker 1 (48:52):
Yeah, maybe I like to think it's a flying dragon.
Hell yeah, it is.
He sees something in thedistance and he thinks it's help
.

Speaker 2 (49:05):
Then R2-D2, we see him that he's like just like
beep booping around, and then wesee the Jawas for the first
time.

Speaker 1 (49:08):
Oh, bing bop bing bam .
That's where Kendrick got it.
One of the kind of shit you do,and then the Jawas just
electrocute him and he likefalls over and it's fucking
hilarious.

Speaker 3 (49:16):
Did I ever send that video of Van Damme as R2-D2?

Speaker 2 (49:18):
Yes, I've seen that it's.
I've seen that it's basically abloodsport.
That's the version I want tosee.

Speaker 1 (49:26):
We need to do bloodsport so they're stuck on
the ship.
I love the ship.
It's just like all rattylooking and it's great.
It looks like.
It looks better than any movie.
It'd just all be CGI.

Speaker 3 (49:40):
Now what I don't understand is how they cannot
like.
It's right there, what is it?
They can't seem to emulate thesame effect of looking dirty.
It's like you can tell it feelslike it's real, but I don't
understand it.
It's just.
Is this the difference of liketwo people who make do with what
they got versus like we havethe money?
Make do with what they gotversus like we have the money?

(50:02):
Just do what you can Like itdoesn't matter.

Speaker 1 (50:03):
It's just easier and more cost effective to do CGI
now, just because the technologyis getting better.
It's just easier for them.
But I mean like in the sequels,I mean like they do a good job
with that, but that's becausethey had pretty much unlimited
money.
Yeah, r2 finds C-3PO, but firstwe see the one and only Gonk

(50:24):
droid.
Baby.
Gonk, gonk, gonk, gonk, gonk,gonk.
So good, dude Lucas was likewhat if we had a robot that said
gonk?
And someone was like he saidgentlemen.

Speaker 3 (50:37):
In Bad Batch there's a gonk droid in there, isn't
there Probably?

Speaker 1 (50:44):
I think on their ship there's one that's like gong
who does stuff for them.

Speaker 3 (50:45):
I'm going to look up what episode that is.
He's like do the whole thing.

Speaker 2 (50:47):
They're like we need ideas for robots Go.

Speaker 1 (50:49):
Trash can.
Sweet, put legs on it Wait,hold on, carrie Fisher, bring me
your pinky now, honey and thenwe see the storm troopers
looking for the droids.
This is where we get our firstreveal of bad CGI.

Speaker 3 (51:09):
It was unnecessary.
Why?

Speaker 1 (51:12):
One of my favorite bits from Spaceballs is when you
have like they're like oh, wegot the people they're combing
through the desert.
And then it's just like youknow, you got a bunch of black
people.
They have like a giant afro.
It's like did you find anythingwe can't find?
Shit it's so funny, cause he?

Speaker 3 (51:32):
does randomly find.

Speaker 1 (51:32):
Look droid, sarah, he's like you're in the middle
of this fucking desert planet.
What the fuck are you talkingabout?
I guess there was no wind thatday.

Speaker 3 (51:40):
I just made a connection.
They find that one little pieceof droid stuff, the little
condom thing.

Speaker 1 (51:45):
Yeah.

Speaker 3 (51:46):
And then when they capture the Millennium Falcon,
they can't find them on the ship.
Whatever team they had in thatdesert needs a promotion for
ship check.

Speaker 1 (51:54):
I'm sure this ship doesn't have a bottom floor.

Speaker 3 (51:58):
It just shows their cup.
It's like there ain't nobodyhere.
Nobody here is like, yeah, myback hurts, I don't want to bend
over.
You know how hard it is to bendover in this stuff.
Yeah, get all plastickysounding.

Speaker 1 (52:07):
So then we see the Jawas.
They're selling the droids tothe moisture farmers.
Owen, peru and their nephewLuke.
I love we see like a bunch ofdifferent shots of Jawas at the
beginning of the movie.
They're constantly differentsizes.

Speaker 3 (52:22):
Yes, which?

Speaker 1 (52:23):
is fine, like when you see them with R2, they're
really tiny.
When they're with like Owen andall them, it's like, oh, these
are taller people obviously.
So I'm like what happened onthe set?
They couldn't get the smallerpeople anymore.
Yeah.
So Owen needed droids whounderstand the binary language
of moisture evaporators.
While C-3PO is a protocol droid, he is trained in the language
of load filters, which is verysimilar to evaporators and Sith

(52:44):
language.

Speaker 2 (52:45):
He's like, yeah, I'll take you too, nerd, he can also
speak bocce.

Speaker 3 (52:49):
Never comes up later.
Yep, bocce.

Speaker 1 (52:52):
Something like that Bocce ball, bocce ball.
C3po convinces Luke to takeR2-D2 as well.
Not really C3PO convincing him,it's just a red trash can boy
blew up.
Yeah, r5.
And I love that there's atheory that R2 is actually the
one that made that droid like,convinced that droid to blow up

(53:15):
for the greater good, and it'slike I was just making a joke in
my head about that.

Speaker 2 (53:22):
And it's just like, hey guys, who cares?
He's over there like whisperingin its ear, like, hey, go
fucking kill yourself.

Speaker 3 (53:26):
Yeah suicide for the greater is so canceled.

Speaker 1 (53:32):
R2-d2 has killed a lot of people.
He's a straight D, so Owenasked Luke to clean up both the
droids before dinner.
While Luke is cleaning R2-D2and complaining about wanting to
leave Tatooine, he discovers arecording of Leia requesting
help from a former ally namedObi-Wan Kenobi.
Hmm, I don't think I knowanybody by that name.
Do you think it could be BenKenobi?

(53:53):
I don't know.
Man has the same last name.
Old Ben Can't be a lot ofKenobis out here on this desert
planet, doesn't oh?

Speaker 3 (54:03):
never mind, it's just like the Obi-Wan show.

Speaker 1 (54:05):
It's like, obviously, that's probably because you
know I've watched this movieover the course of 30 years a
lot and it's like, yeah,obviously it's the guy named Obi
.

Speaker 3 (54:14):
It's literally the same thing.

Speaker 1 (54:17):
But Luke is interested in the rebellion and
wants to learn more about it.
R2-d2 says that the message isa private one for Obi-Wan and
that R2-D2 is his property.
Obi-wan Kenobi, you're my onlyhope.
Great, right, I mean damn, justso simple.
Just so simple.

Speaker 3 (54:32):
It's um one thing's going back and watching this is
seeing Mark.

Speaker 1 (54:36):
Hamill's face pre-crash oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (54:39):
Because in the second one, you know, he gets attacked
by that wampa and his face isall fucked up.

Speaker 1 (54:45):
He was in a car crash .

Speaker 3 (54:46):
Well, he was in a car crash and when they did the
surgery they did not do a goodjob of like because he broke his
face.
Yeah, they didn't do it, theplastic surgeon didn't do it.
It's also why it sounds kind ofdifferent too.
Yeah, like his whole face isEmpire.
You're like, oh, you see thedifference, like where?

Speaker 2 (55:01):
yeah, it's pretty fucked up like they.

Speaker 3 (55:03):
Uh, I never knew he was gonna crash though, yeah,
that's what caused it, and I waslike man I always say,
anything's like what happened.
If his, if his face didn't getmessed up, could he, because
kind of attractive, feel like hecould have maybe had a little
more roles compared to likebecause Harrison Ford still had
the looks yeah if I was doingnot a little manner he crashed
in an auto driving Tesla.
Yeah, I gotta say like as muchas his career didn't have much

(55:25):
after Star Wars um is he?

Speaker 1 (55:30):
had the Joker, bro.
I've been playing for like 20more years.
Yeah, that's a voice actingrole.
I'm sure it's not what hewanted.
Yeah, because.

Speaker 3 (55:35):
Harrison Ford was the only one who still got roles in
dogma.

Speaker 1 (55:39):
It's been a lot well, I think he's in dogma.
Yeah, but yeah.
So Obi-Wan lives on Tatooine.
We find out Luke knows of aBinknobi great, an old hermit
who lives beyond the Dune Sea.
Hmm, I wonder if it could behim.
Luke is called for dinner.
I love this because R2's likebeep boop, bop boop, c3po's just
like just you.
Reconsider playing that messagefor him.
R you C-3PO.

(56:01):
No, I don't think he likes youat all.
C-3po no I don't like youeither.
It's like dude C-3PO, I know.

Speaker 3 (56:08):
You're a fucking robot.

Speaker 1 (56:10):
What do you want to be doing right now?
So Luke, who hopes to leavehome for training at a nearby
Imperial Military Academy tobecome a space pilot he probably
did that.
He'd probably become a bad guy,hell yeah Leaves the room
angrily to return to cleaningthe droids because Owen says he
has to help with the harvest andcan't leave.
I put cat leave.

Speaker 3 (56:28):
Oh, sorry, just made a connection there.
Sorry, I mean you're up, we'regrowing a space pot when you
talked about him going to jointhe military thing.
It would have made him a badguy.
People, his family, that's whenhe becomes the rebel.
It's like, oh yeah connections.

Speaker 1 (56:43):
Yes, so luke's aunt, peru, tells owen that luke is
too much like his father toremain with them, but no one
holds out hope that luke'sdesire for adventure will
subside and express a fear thatluke is too much like his father
, suggesting owen may know,suggesting that owen may know
something about anakin'sterrible past.
Uh, and then luke goes to lookout the two suns and it's

(57:03):
beautiful and the score rollsand fuck yeah, we also talk
about how, when Obi-Wan handsLuke the lightsaber, he looks
literally right down so he'shanding someone a gun, looking
right down the barrel.
I always love the edits.
There's one where he turns iton and it's like he's like oh
shit.
So it's like the next day R2-D2is missing.
Luke tells 3PO that it's toolate to look for R2 because oh,

(57:25):
it's the same day.
Whoops, r2, because of thedangerous sand people.
They call them in the movie,but we'll call them Tusken
Raiders Don't want to getcanceled In the area and they
will set out first thing in themorning to go look for him.
Luke and 3PO go on Luke's landspeeder, which looks fucking rad
in that shot.
I'm like man.
It looks so good.

Speaker 3 (57:43):
It was funny because I know how they.
You know how they did it to getthat shot with the land speeder
.
Yeah, I think I used to.
It's a mirror on it becausethey couldn't hide the wheels.

Speaker 1 (57:51):
Oh cool.

Speaker 3 (57:52):
And I'm watching it and I was like you know, I
actually can kind of see themirror now, but it's still so
good, see, and oh, no wonder Igrew up liking movies.
Well, we don't get that end oflike quick, because we don't get
to make like, we don't getpeople who can just try and make
a movie anymore, becausethey're so costly we don't get
on YouTube, yeah.
But they don't get that chanceof like doing something because

(58:13):
you get to work with a lot ofpeople.
When it's YouTube, it's a lotless people, I would say.
And now you don't get that likespur of the moment of like
we've got a team together hereto try and make this movie like
you know who we have now?

Speaker 1 (58:23):
a24, yeah, but they're the ones that like it's
always like a brand new directordoing a horror movie and it's
like, oh, thank god.
Yeah, but they're not all like,talk to me like they were
youtubers.
They're doing the backroomsmovie.
I don't know if they're doinganymore and they're gonna have
like a, the kid who invented thebackrooms I wasn't like an
amazing movie, but yeah, like Iguess you're right, that was a
good movie still like uh, thinkof the witch.

(58:45):
That was that guy's first movie,ari aster so this is what
hereditary netflix should bedoing with their amount of money
they let everybody who makeshitty movies we have to have
electric state I still haven'tseen me neither, but I saw it
and I was like I remember when Isaw the trailer and I was like,
oh, this is the russo's.
I wonder what their budget is.

Speaker 3 (59:01):
I'm like that was a Russo movie.
Yeah, I think so.
Oh my.

Speaker 1 (59:04):
God, and it's like a huge budget.
I'm like no, it looks like poop.
Eh yeah, so they catch up toR2-D2.
R2-d2 is adamant that it needsto get to.
Obi-wan Luke is attacked byTusken Raiders.
He is the hermit by meeting aweird yell like I put that down

(59:24):
as a note.

Speaker 3 (59:25):
I never I was like that was his quirk, his Jedi
quirk.
I never realized he wasscreaming.

Speaker 1 (59:29):
He just like walks up .
Sorry, I had a burrito earlier.
I put extra jalapenos on.
That's how Jedi's fart.

Speaker 3 (59:37):
I still love the family guy one.
He's like it was like a chorus.
He's like oh they all scaredhim away.
It's like don't worry, they'llbe back in greater numbers.
Oh, that'll be great.

Speaker 1 (59:44):
Yeah, it's gonna be a great show man I did think
about while watching this.

Speaker 2 (59:47):
I watched that Family Guy the limp lightsaber yeah
good if anybody sees Luke, comehere that's my boy, I tell ya oh
god, I own those still.

Speaker 1 (01:00:00):
I think they're up there behind the Mission
Impossible thing.

Speaker 2 (01:00:03):
You know what my kids said?
I asked them to watch thismovie with me.
I turned it on.
They said oh, is that Lego StarWars?
I said no, and they're like oh,this looks stupid.
Okay, see you, Hell, yeah.
So two things.

Speaker 3 (01:00:15):
Way to go kids One.
You already failed by nothaving them after this.
That would explain the ballsituation.
You're the one that popped thegirl's ball it was just out of
hate.

Speaker 2 (01:00:33):
I couldn't help myself.

Speaker 1 (01:00:34):
It's just like an attack on the clones so Luke
addresses him as Ben and saysthat the droid has been looking
for Obi-Wan.
Ben said I don't know why Istarted talking as Ben and says
that the droid has been lookingfor Obi-Wan.
Ben says I don't know why Istarted talking like that.
Ben says that he is Obi-Wan buthasn't been addressed as that
in a long time.
No one's called me that in along time.
I'm Alec.

Speaker 3 (01:00:53):
Giggs, I love how, like all that stuff that
happened to like Luke getsknocked out.
3po got his shit fucked up.

Speaker 1 (01:01:02):
I was like well, I can probably see why he doesn't
like big adventures.

Speaker 3 (01:01:05):
He's like I get screwed over every time.

Speaker 1 (01:01:08):
I love this next bit because they're going to go with
him and he's like, oh, where'sthe 3PO?
And they go get him.
He's like, just leave me.
I can't keep going.
It's like you're missing onearm.

Speaker 3 (01:01:19):
He was probably missing a lower half.

Speaker 1 (01:01:20):
But it's just something he's like I'll never
make it.
And it's like dude, you're arobot, they can just carry you.

Speaker 3 (01:01:24):
This is so dramatic.
It's like you don't feel pain,bro, that cutaway when they pick
him up and it transitions.
It's like that was kind of good, just so you didn't have to
show his naked body.

Speaker 1 (01:01:31):
It's like, go on without me.
I'm done for now.
His past as one of the JediKnights, former peacekeepers of
the Galactic Republic for over athousand generations, who drew
mystical abilities from theForce but were hunted to near
extinction by the Empire andbecause they completely forgot

(01:01:52):
how to block blasters for somereason.
Obi-wan explains that a Jedireceives his power from the
Force, an energy field that iscreated by all living beings
that surround us, penetrates usand binds us to the galaxy, like
Wi-Fi that's 5G.
But there is also a dark sideof the Force, which draws power
from negative motions and baserimpulses and has cookies.

Speaker 3 (01:02:17):
Oh.

Speaker 1 (01:02:17):
Luke learns that his father, also a Jedi, fought
alongside Obi-Wan during theClone Wars until Vader,
Obi-Wan's former pupil, turnedthe dark side of the Force and
murdered him.
Man, I wish we got a storyabout that, I know, and I bet.
Guarantee you Darth Vader's nota Force baby in that one.
I just guarantee it.

Speaker 3 (01:02:37):
Have you ever watched that one?
That would be insane if that wasreal there's some person I mean
there's a million on YouTube,but his was like a lot.
He goes back and rewrites thetrilogies and goes through like
talks the whole movie out ofwhat he would do different and I
did that one day with likeRevenge of the Sith some things
I didn't like, but I think youwould probably appreciate them a
lot more than what he did,because it he's not.

(01:02:57):
He's someone who's a, but notthe fanboy.
Wait, who was this?
Some YouTuber?
I don't remember his name.
I'd have to find it again.
I watched it years ago but Ireally liked what he had done.

Speaker 1 (01:03:06):
Did you ever hear about Topher Grace's recut of
the prequels?

Speaker 3 (01:03:09):
I heard about it.

Speaker 1 (01:03:09):
I never got around to downloading and watching them.
Yeah, me neither.
If you ever download it, giveme it File.
Yeah, so then?
Um yeah, what are we talkingabout?
Oh yeah, then they're stilltalking about Darth Vader.
Then he became the Dark Lord ofthe Sith, the most feared
enforcer of the Emperor.
In this capacity, he proceededto hunt down his former comrades

(01:03:30):
, and the Jedi Order is now allbut extinct.

Speaker 3 (01:03:35):
I will say, of all the stuff, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:03:38):
There'll be five more movies.
Don't worry, baby.

Speaker 3 (01:03:42):
Is the stuff that's's like after Disney bought it.
Some of the things that they'vedone right is the Vader comic,
because there's this line in itwhere he's surrounded like in a
canyon by like 30 people thatsaid we have you surrounded,
drop your weapon now.
And his quote is he literallyin the comic strip is no, all
I'm surrounded by is fear anddead men oh my god, why whoever

(01:04:07):
does these comics knows Vader,obviously.
Why are they not helping withmovies?

Speaker 2 (01:04:14):
in the Jedi video game, the one of the I can't
remember what it's called, butlike they.
And when Darth Vader shows upat the end, everybody's like oh
fuck, oh, that's Last Survivor,jedi, last Survivor.
No, it's like Jedi.
Yeah, that was the one beforethe.
It's the first one of the.

Speaker 1 (01:04:30):
Yeah, yeah, whatever yeah, the first one of the souls
like version.
That was badass yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:04:34):
Cal Kestis where you're running from the whole
end of the game yeah, that'spretty great.

Speaker 3 (01:04:39):
We never get that because there was the one that
Force Unleashed.
Love those ones.

Speaker 1 (01:04:45):
Well, I like the first one I've never played them
, I need to play them.

Speaker 3 (01:04:49):
Well, you just need to play the first one.
Second one I have.

Speaker 1 (01:04:53):
Yeah, so Luke had been told by his uncle that his
father, anakin, was a navigatoron a spice freighter.
That would have been such anice job back in the day Spice
dune.
Obi-wan offers Luke hisfather's old lightsaber and
energy sword the signatureweapon of the Jedi and it
fucking rules.
Even in the first one it rules.

Speaker 3 (01:05:11):
One thing, even though that was the nice thing
that they did.

Speaker 1 (01:05:14):
when they went back and like made some adjustments,
they did make the lightsaberslook way better.
That's cool, because they werelike they barely had color and
they look kind of bad in theoriginal, so it's nice to that.

Speaker 3 (01:05:27):
He did some good things, good, right.
Did you notice, right, that, um, when he's using it, his eyes
have that reflection in it?
Oh really, I'm wondering if,because I was like, that looks
very genuine I don't know ifit's because it's so far away,
but because you know they'rejust batons I'm like, how do
they do that?
One thing I really like aboutabout which is interesting to
say, is that Star Wars pre withdoing just the batons and then

(01:05:50):
adding the CGI later.
I prefer that more than whatthey do now, which is like they
have prop lightsabers that aregenerating real light, but it
just doesn't look as goodbecause you can tell it's like
that's a toy that you're using.

Speaker 1 (01:06:02):
That's why I thought the sequel ones looked really
good.

Speaker 3 (01:06:05):
Well, it was very noticeable in the obi-wan show
between anakin and uh dude thatI was looking at, like it's like
all that lighting that they'reusing.
They're using real lightsabers.
Now I'm like I don't likeeither.
They need to correct it more.
I don't like it now.
The sequels were fine becausethey were the sequels think
weren't using the reallightsabers.

(01:06:25):
Now they are now more in thespinoff crowd.

Speaker 1 (01:06:29):
Hey, Disney, if you're going to make TV shows,
make them actually entertainingthrough every episode.
And if you can't make six goodepisodes, just make like one or
two good episodes, please.
God, I'm so sick of Disney'scrappy, shitty six miniseries.

Speaker 3 (01:06:41):
You had it so good with Mandalorian first two
seasons, yeah, and then youfucked up with Boba Fett.
You fucked up horrible.
I still cannot think forgetabout that Obi-Wan scene where
he's trying to hide in Leiaunder his cloak.
I'm like, oh my God, this is sobad.
I feel so bad for.
Yeah, that's another thing.

(01:07:02):
Stop, this is another toxicthing with him.
Wait, they're just fuckingactors.

Speaker 1 (01:07:06):
Leave them alone.

Speaker 3 (01:07:06):
Yeah, as much as I didn't like Rose.
Jesus, fucking Christ, get thehell over it, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:07:12):
So All right.
R2-d2 plays Leia's full messagein which she begs Obi-Wan to
take the Death Star plans toAlderaan and give them to their
father.
A fellow veteran for analysis.
Yeah, jimmy Smith, baby JimmySmith, that's who?

Speaker 2 (01:07:29):
Help me, obi-wan Kenobi, you're my only hope.

Speaker 1 (01:07:30):
That's who takes her.
Just like and subscribe BailOrgana.
That's Jimmy Smith.
He's in like.

Speaker 3 (01:07:36):
Dexter.

Speaker 1 (01:07:37):
Yeah, Dexter, yeah, Love that actor and I love that.
So we've seen the hologram acouple of times.
The way that Mark Hamill isreally good in those scenes
whenever he first sees Leia,because like there's just such a
sense of wonder on his face andhe's like, it's just like, is
there anything else?

Speaker 2 (01:07:53):
that hologram does or like you know, I don't know
he's like gosh, he's so hot.

Speaker 1 (01:07:56):
I wish he was even though you know the text.
There it's the adventure.
It's come to him and he knowshe can go on it.
But he's like uncle Owen.

Speaker 2 (01:08:04):
I hope he's not a scale man there's a space babe
out there with my name on itwith no bra.

Speaker 1 (01:08:11):
Luke initially declines Obi-Wan's offer to
accompany him to Alderaan andlearn the ways of the Force.
Meanwhile, aboard the DeathStar Commander Grand Moff Tarkin
who that actor was in like alot of horror movies back in the
day.

Speaker 3 (01:08:22):
Can we talk about how his face is shaped perfectly
like an alien?

Speaker 1 (01:08:25):
Yeah, that's why he was in a lot of horror movies
before.
This Nice Guy looks like thezombie in what we Do in the
Shadows.

Speaker 3 (01:08:35):
Oh it does, yeah, it does.

Speaker 1 (01:08:37):
So Grand Moff Tarkin tells his commanders that the
Emperor has dissolved theImperial Senate permanently and,
with all the remnants of theold Republic, regional governors
now have direct control overthe territories.
The Empire plans to use theDeath Star to breed fear in the
galaxy, but are afraid that therebels might find a weakness in
its defense and exploit it.
One of the commanders dissesthe force in front of Vader and

(01:08:58):
he force chokes the hell out ofhim.

Speaker 2 (01:08:59):
Yeah, that was sweet.
But then the other guy was like, hey, let him go, Darth Vader.
I feel like he would've beenlike just immediately turned
around and blew his head off orsomething he respects.

Speaker 3 (01:09:12):
Tarkin Vader has no control.

Speaker 2 (01:09:14):
Yeah, that was the thing you tell Vader to stop
doing something I feel like he'sgoing to kill you.

Speaker 1 (01:09:18):
He would have got a spanking from the Emperor.

Speaker 3 (01:09:19):
Well, Tarkin had a really close relationship with
Palpatine and, since he became alittle bitch, that he does
listen to him, because he stillfollows orders, because this is
just what he does.

Speaker 1 (01:09:29):
Jason, I find your lack of faith disturbing.

Speaker 3 (01:09:33):
I couldn't remember like a five sentence a five word
sentence.

Speaker 1 (01:09:36):
That's ridiculous.
I just literally I find yourlack.
Well, it's the rest of it.
Luke and Obi-Wan find somecharred Jawas and then race his
home to check on his fam.
He is left with no choice tojoin Obi-Wan after Imperial
Stormtroopers murder his familyno-transcript while searching
for the droids.
It's some dead as fuck.

(01:09:56):
Skelemon, Fuck yeah.
Also, Luke could have been alittle sadder about it.

Speaker 3 (01:10:01):
Oh yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:10:01):
Well, he wanted to leave.
He's way sadder when Obi-Wandies.
He's like yo.
These people just took care ofyou from a baby.

Speaker 3 (01:10:08):
It's a baby.
Everyone talks about that.

Speaker 1 (01:10:12):
Damn.
What's Obi-Wan up to?
I guess I'm freed up thisafternoon.

Speaker 2 (01:10:15):
Yeah, it's like well, it's like you gotta need.

Speaker 3 (01:10:17):
Also one thing that sucks is that you can no longer
enjoy marshmallows.

Speaker 1 (01:10:21):
That's true.

Speaker 3 (01:10:22):
Marshmallows, because you crisp them up.
Yeah, you crisp them up.
He gets flashbacks.

Speaker 2 (01:10:27):
Emperor, I'm calling Also fucking rules.

Speaker 1 (01:10:30):
How charred they are.
That's sick, bro, like hell.
Yeah, show me more of that inStar Wars.
So Darth Vader is given thetask to locate the Rebel
Fortress before the Death Staris operational, darth Vader
starts to interrogate Leiaregarding the location of the
Rebel base.
Obi-wan says fuck your fam,let's party.
Yeah, dude Seeking a way offthe Isley Mos Eisley Spaceport,

(01:10:52):
you'll never find a morewretched hive of scum and
villainy.
We must be cautious.

Speaker 3 (01:10:57):
And we will be here for the next 40 years.

Speaker 1 (01:11:01):
They fly in and a ton of shitty CGI creatures are
around.
It's so good.
It's like just add thebuildings.
If you got to add something.
We don't need lizardseverywhere getting in the way of
the camera.

Speaker 3 (01:11:13):
I hate it.
I was like are we transitioningin a way?
I don't lizards everywhere?

Speaker 1 (01:11:15):
getting in the way of the camera.
I hated that.
I was like are we transitioningaway?
I don't understand.
It's crazy.
It's literally blocking someshots.

Speaker 3 (01:11:19):
I'm hoping when they release that one it's like the
original.
Someone gets recording of it.

Speaker 1 (01:11:23):
I bet we will.
I actually had a friend thathad the very original VHSes so I
got to watch it.
That's why I was like I swearthat Jabba thing, swear that
java scenes.
Yeah, maybe it's not.
Um, I will say like I meanthere are some small additions
that would have worked.
But man, this stuff doesn't.
It's the, it builds out thecity but it's like no, mos
eisley just doesn't haveanything.

(01:11:44):
It's, we're a desert planet, itdoesn't have to be bustling I
kind of liked it.

Speaker 2 (01:11:48):
I liked all the bustling stuff.
It shows that it's like a livedin place.
Do you think like whenever?
So after he does the Jedi mindtrick on on the stormtrooper?
Do you think after they leftall the other ones were just
looking at him like dude?
What the fuck was?

Speaker 1 (01:12:02):
that he's obviously there's a George dude.
I thought we were just playinga bit on him.
We're all about to shoot him.
I guess he did them all so Ijust looked it up.

Speaker 3 (01:12:11):
There's really four different versions of that java
scene so there's one where he'stalking to a hologram, then cg
then, there's one where he'sjust talking to a guy, yeah
that's the one I've seen see, Idon't I still don't remember
that scene with that guy.

Speaker 1 (01:12:24):
I feel like that's the one I saw in the movie, I
don't know.
Um, all right, but anyways.
Obi-wan uses the force tohypnotize imperial stormtroopers
and provide safe patches to thecity Stormtrooper.
Let me see your identification,obi-wan.
You don't need to see theidentification Stormtrooper we
don't need to see youridentification.

Speaker 3 (01:12:41):
Minkin.

Speaker 1 (01:12:41):
Obi, these aren't the droids we're looking for.
These aren't the droids we'relooking for.
He can go about his business.
You can go about your business.
Your penis is a snake.
You're eating worms, so theyreach a tavern which is
frequented by several spacefighter pilots who would be
willing to transport anythingfor the right fee.

(01:13:03):
We get to see the beauty ofStar Wars finally, with the
creatures and the dope ass song.
This when they go around andthey just show all like the
gross little guys.
That's fun, and the fuckingdevils there, yeah, yeah, man,
it's great.
This is why I like Star Warsguys, that was fun.

Speaker 2 (01:13:17):
And the fucking devil's there, yeah, yeah, man,
it's great.
This is why I like Star Wars.

Speaker 3 (01:13:20):
There's even a guy that looks like a NASA astronaut
hanging out.
He's just like I don't knowwhere I am, but I'm fucking
digging it.

Speaker 1 (01:13:25):
I like how unfancy this place looks.
It feels real.
The problem with the ForceAwakens when they go into the
bar and it's supposed to be likeoh, it's like Mos Eisley, but
you look around, I'm like it'stoo.
It doesn't feel grimy enough.

Speaker 3 (01:13:39):
Well, you know why?
It's because that's also athing at the Disney Resort.

Speaker 2 (01:13:44):
Yeah that's the shit I love that place.

Speaker 1 (01:13:47):
I want to go.
I want to see my Star Wars.
I liked it.

Speaker 2 (01:13:51):
I even went into the bar because you have to get like
reservations to get into thebar.
It was fun.

Speaker 3 (01:13:57):
So we did me and her were not me and my girlfriend.

Speaker 2 (01:14:00):
We were not comfortable.

Speaker 3 (01:14:00):
We had to sit with people and they were like trying
to talk and I was like I'malready like at my limit for
people because of this crowd Idon't want to talk.
I'd already been drinkingtequila heat.

Speaker 2 (01:14:11):
You open?

Speaker 1 (01:14:13):
the bottle.
He is the heat.

Speaker 2 (01:14:16):
Ooh, we need to do heat Put it in your water bottle
to carry around with you.

Speaker 1 (01:14:20):
So Obi-Wan makes contact with a Wookiee named
Chewbacca.
You gonna do the noise?
Oh shit, you put me on the spot.
I just feel like you're gonnado it.
Oh, I don't know.
I just feel like you would doit.
I just knew it.
There's something about Jason.
What is like he can doChewbacca.

Speaker 3 (01:14:37):
I can't.
I have no idea how to do it.
I'm sure it ties back into hislike we'll find out some random
things.
Yeah, back when I was in themilitary I did this and I ran
into someone who's a Chewbacca.

Speaker 2 (01:14:47):
So they did put Jedi just for shits and giggles, and
I did that and then my thirdyear in military they removed
that.
So you had to pick between themajor religions.

Speaker 3 (01:14:59):
I couldn't be a.

Speaker 2 (01:15:00):
Jedi.

Speaker 3 (01:15:01):
There's like 10,000 of the major religions.

Speaker 2 (01:15:04):
But there was only like four that you could pick
from.

Speaker 3 (01:15:06):
Which is what Buddhist?

Speaker 1 (01:15:08):
Hindu, but when you picked one, it made you a better
soldier, right?
Obviously, yeah, okay, good,see, that's why they did it.
I want you to kill in the nameof something, please.

Speaker 3 (01:15:18):
Flying spaghetti monster.
Hell yeah, dude so.

Speaker 1 (01:15:23):
Luke gets pushed around by a bug and a pig-faced
looking guy.
He doesn't like you, I don'tlike you either.

Speaker 3 (01:15:30):
I love how he says.

Speaker 1 (01:15:31):
I'm sorry, I don't like you either.
They attack him in Obi-Wan, butObi-Wan makes quick work and
hits him with his lightsaber andcuts off his hand Hell yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:15:41):
And the first time we think lightsabers don't
cauterize, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:15:44):
It leaves blood.
So they're going to hire HanSolo baby, harrison Ford.
They're going to hire him for10,000 credits, a smuggler
indebted to a local mobster,jabba the Hutt, for a passage to
Alderaan.
Luke knows that for that kindof money they can buy their own
ship, he claims.
Han claims that his ship, theMillennium Falcon, made the
Kessel Run in 12 parsecs and canoutrun Imperial starships.

(01:16:05):
Obi-wan offers to pay 2,000credits up Free to meet in Bay
94.
Yeah, he's immediately a moviestar when you see him on screen.
Hot as fuck.

Speaker 3 (01:16:19):
He used to be a carpenter as well.

Speaker 2 (01:16:20):
Han Ooh, he works with his hands.

Speaker 3 (01:16:23):
That's why he's Han.

Speaker 1 (01:16:24):
And it turns out, he's not a good pilot in real
life.

Speaker 3 (01:16:28):
Can't stop crashing planes Did he do that.

Speaker 1 (01:16:31):
Yeah, he's like crashed like a plane like three
different times, or a helicopter.

Speaker 2 (01:16:34):
He was a helicopter pilot.

Speaker 1 (01:16:35):
No, he has like a little, you know those small
little planes.
I don't know why.
Does this make you feel better?

Speaker 2 (01:16:40):
No, I'm doing the little hand movements.

Speaker 1 (01:16:42):
So Han hangs back to take care of their bar tab and
is stopped by Greedo, a bountyhunter working for feared crime
lord Jabba, aka Jabba the Hutt Ididn't say his actual name,
didn't need to say that, okay.

Speaker 3 (01:16:53):
The Hutts.

Speaker 1 (01:16:54):
Apparently Jabba had hired Han to transport a
shipment of like glitter, stemspice or whatever, but Han had
to dump the shipment due tounexpected Imperial boarding.
As Greedo points a blaster atSolo, han insists that he has
the 8,000 credits he needs tocover for the loss.
Greedo suggests that Solo giveit to him as a bribe not to turn
him over to Jabba, forcing Hanto admit that he doesn't

(01:17:16):
actually have any money.
Yet Solo quietly removes hisheavy pistol under the table and
preemptively fires and killshim McClunky On his way out.
Han throws the bartender a fewcoins, apologizes for the mess
because he's a badass.

Speaker 3 (01:17:29):
And we all agree Han shot first, Yep.

Speaker 1 (01:17:33):
Fucking better McClunky dude.

Speaker 2 (01:17:37):
How do you not like these movies?

Speaker 3 (01:17:39):
Was that a caption that came up when he said that?
No, he says McClunky out loud.

Speaker 1 (01:17:43):
I could not hear it.
Do you watch these movies?

Speaker 3 (01:17:46):
bro, do not get on right now.
That's why you have so many badopinions about them.
You can't remember anything.

Speaker 1 (01:17:49):
I could go on the whole movie right now.

Speaker 3 (01:17:51):
Clay, is this the mind probe?
The mind probe is just a droidcoming in with a fucking syringe
.

Speaker 2 (01:17:55):
It's like hey, bitch, give me that brain.

Speaker 1 (01:17:59):
Hold still.
So get this mosquito out.
Yeah, so Leia resists the mindprobe and gives nothing to Darth
Vader, and he's like I can'tbelieve she could do that, bro.
As the Death Star becomesoperational, moff turns it
towards Alderaan, where Leia washeaded and her diplomatic ship
in the first place.
At the docking bay, han isconfronted by Jabba the Hutt and

(01:18:21):
just a terrible looking scene.

Speaker 2 (01:18:23):
Yeah, what makes me think that I do not remember
this scene at all is becausethey repeat the same lines that
he was just talking to Greedoabout.

Speaker 1 (01:18:33):
Like Greedo's, like we don't need a ship commander,
but this is when we first see aMandalorian in the background.

Speaker 3 (01:18:40):
This is why I thought we I don't remember Boba Fett
in the first one at all.
I remember him strictly being.
So.
Now I'm like what's happening?
What mandala effect ishappening to me?
Somebody?

Speaker 1 (01:18:52):
look it up while I talk.

Speaker 3 (01:18:52):
I do like how he stepped on his tail that was fun
.

Speaker 2 (01:18:55):
That is funny.
He's like ugh.

Speaker 1 (01:18:56):
No, it looks god awful guys, it like it the
physics?

Speaker 3 (01:19:00):
No, it's just funny, it looks the physics looks
terrible.

Speaker 1 (01:19:06):
He's like bloop, bloop, bloop, bloop.
It's like.
And then you.

Speaker 2 (01:19:10):
And then he walks up to the ship and he says you're a
good human being, jabba.
Is that supposed to be a cut a?

Speaker 1 (01:19:14):
dig on Jabba.
I think it's supposed to be,but originally it was because it
was a human being that he'stalking to, but I feel like he
keeps it in because it's like,oh it's funny, like I don't mind
the line.

Speaker 3 (01:19:27):
Maybe it wasn't.

Speaker 1 (01:19:31):
I still can't tell you know what.
This is actually a great momentif you know if the human
version was actually in theoriginal, because you can
remember that far and youweren't a child.
Um, okay, well, never mind, butstill leave us a comment it
says, lucas cut the scene.

Speaker 3 (01:19:41):
But when preparing the special edition of the film
in the 1990s he inserted a cgimodel into that sequence,
completely obscuring mahalan'sperformance.
So that scene was filmed.
But he, because he said righthere, he felt like it didn't add
to the plot so it wasoriginally not in there, I
believe.
Cool.

Speaker 1 (01:19:55):
So why add it back?
It doesn't.

Speaker 3 (01:19:57):
Well, there's a lot he added in there.
We didn't Because everyone justwants more More.

Speaker 1 (01:20:04):
It could have been like five minutes less, so yeah.
So Jabba expresses frustrationover Greedo's death and reminds
Han that he cannot spare whofell or cross him, lest he
appears weak.
Han insists that he will soonhave enough money to pay off the
debt.
Blah, blah, blah, blah.
Jabba, you're a wonderful humanbeing.
Yeah, he totally had all threeplanned, because he called him a
human being, so he obviouslydidn't so Luke sells his land.

Speaker 2 (01:20:27):
You're a wonderful slug man.

Speaker 1 (01:20:28):
Yeah.
So Luke sells his land speederto raise money for their initial
payment to Captain Solo.
They head to the docking bay.
Lucas Worre discovers that theFalcon is a 60-year-old rundown
freighter, but Han assures himthat he has made extensive
modifications to ensure that shecan run rings around any modern
capital ship.
And it's the best spaceship inall movies.
Yep, it is.

Speaker 3 (01:20:50):
I love seeing that when you go to Disney.
It's sick as fuck, andapparently I missed out because
the ship lights up at night atdisney, but it because we got
there when they would open andspend all day.
So it's okay, we can fuck outof here.
You're so tired yeah and samefor the avatar place apparently
all lit up and look great yeah,that place is cool at night, but
I'm also like I don't careabout avatar like this.

Speaker 2 (01:21:09):
I really it is cool as hell like especially if you
get stoned to go in there well,I feel like you could easily
repurpose the that's a good idea.

Speaker 1 (01:21:16):
Actually, I feel like I tell all Jason's stories.

Speaker 3 (01:21:20):
I mean.

Speaker 2 (01:21:20):
Well, I wasn't, but there were people smoking weed
like right next to us.
Hell yeah, that's the bestplace on Earth.

Speaker 3 (01:21:26):
You could easily convert the Avatar place into
like Kashyyyk, if they everfocused on that place.

Speaker 2 (01:21:30):
But if you ever get caught smoking weed, you get
banned forever.

Speaker 3 (01:21:32):
So you have to be careful, so just smoke it before
you go in.

Speaker 1 (01:21:35):
Yeah, yeah.
So they're being pursued bystormtroopers who were informed
by the local spies about thelocation of the droids Luke
Obi-Wan, R2-D2, and C-3PO LeeTatooine with Han and his
Wookiee co-pilot, Chewbacca.
Good job.
On their ship, the MillennialFalcon, they are pursued by an
Imperial cruiser.
Han manages to jump to lightspeed before they can be caught.

(01:21:56):
This is where the fun begins.
Hope you enjoy hearing that Ajump through hyperspace is
dangerous as with the wrongcalculations, one could travel
through a star or supernova andend up dead.
Great shot of the.
I love when the shot of themillennial Falcons like leaving
Tatooine and you get the shotbehind the storm troopers and

(01:22:16):
they're just looking up and it'slike this was made in 77.

Speaker 3 (01:22:20):
Looks great.
And then they added CGI.
That works.
Looks worse than the stuffthat's currently in there.

Speaker 1 (01:22:26):
It looks so good when it leaves.
It's like it's just it'sbecause they, you know, they
filmed it like like a goldenhour, so just everything looks
amazing.
Yeah, oh yeah, like golden hour.
So just everything looksamazing.
Yeah, oh yeah.
So before the Falcon reachesAlteron, the Death Star
Commander, grand Moff Tarkin,has the planet obliterated by
the station's gigantic laser.
Moff wants to demonstrate thepower of the Death Star on

(01:22:46):
Leia's home planet, even thoughshe begs that Alteron is
peaceful and has no weapons.
Moff would have spared theplanet if Leia reveals the name
of the rebel base.
Leia reveals the name of therebel base.
Leia does name Dantooine, butMoff destroys Alderaan
regardless, as Dantooine is toofar to make an effective
demonstration.
Hell yeah, um then, yeah, Ijust want to keep going because
I can't well anyways the planetblown up.

(01:23:09):
Fucking sick brother it was cool.

Speaker 2 (01:23:11):
It looked like a little cotton candy.

Speaker 3 (01:23:12):
I feel like that set the stakes for a lot of movies,
because it's like, oh yeah, wegot, we destroyed a town, but
they just blew up a fuckingplant and George was like
everybody's, like I hope we keepmaking round bases.

Speaker 1 (01:23:27):
So yeah, Obi-Wan senses a disturbance in the
force the moment Alderaan isdestroyed.

Speaker 3 (01:23:32):
He's like, oh I thought I was having a heart
attack.

Speaker 1 (01:23:34):
It was just the force .
It's okay.
On the way Obi-Wan startstraining Luke on the use of the
lightsaber Chewbacca is about tolose a chess game to R2-D2.
C-3po's like, don't fucking win.

Speaker 3 (01:23:51):
R2.
Might want to try a differenttactic.

Speaker 1 (01:23:53):
And then like Chewbacca it's the last time, I
promise.
Okay, I just love that.
Like Chewbacca, like he justlike leans back in his chair,
like yeah, I bet you fucking won.
It's great.
Suck my furry balls.
Han does not believe in theforce.
Obi-wan demonstrates theexistence of the force when Luke

(01:24:16):
is able to defeat a trainingbot with all the senses blocked.
But by plugging into the Force.
Han hokey.
Religions and ancient weaponsare not a good match for a
blaster at your side, are not,as are not a good match for a
blaster at your side.
Kid Luke, you don't believe inthe Force, do ya?

Speaker 3 (01:24:32):
you just learned about it, like 12 hours ago.

Speaker 1 (01:24:34):
Kid.
I've flown from one side ofthis galaxy to the other.
I've seen a lot of strangestuff, but I've never seen
anything to make me believe thatthere's one all-powerful force
controlling everything.
There's no mystical energyfield that controls my destiny.
Anyway, it's all about simpletricks and nonsense.
Probably didn't have to do allthat.
Okay, Chewbacca, calm down.
Yeah, okay, Chewbacca calm down.
Yeah, that was good, the realquestion we need to know

(01:24:56):
Chewbacca.

Speaker 3 (01:24:57):
Is it like a red rocket, like a dog?

Speaker 1 (01:24:59):
I feel like it has to be.
Yeah, I don't think they havepenises.
Oh yeah, they lay eggs thatit's like platypuses.

Speaker 3 (01:25:06):
That would make sense .

Speaker 1 (01:25:09):
I just thought it was weird whenever they all decided
to start to shave down there.
No way it decided to start toshave down there.
It's like after the 70s, theyall just started shaving Because
everyone got called Chewbaccabitch over here.
So Moff Invader learned thatLeia lied about the rebel base.

Speaker 3 (01:25:25):
I love they're like no way what she lied.
So stupid Invader's like yeah,you fucking idiot.

Speaker 1 (01:25:31):
It's just so funny.
They're like we didn't thinkshe could lie.

Speaker 3 (01:25:34):
Cause he was sitting here.
He's like, okay, well, we'regoing to go to base, Go ahead
and kill her.
It's like no, dude, doublecheck.

Speaker 1 (01:25:39):
Did she not know that she was talking to men?
Like I'm so confused.
Women aren't allowed to do thatin space sevent.
See man women.
Have women had a rough in agalaxy far, far away Long time?

Speaker 2 (01:25:55):
ago as well.

Speaker 1 (01:25:56):
So, upon arrival, the Falcon is captured by the Death
Star, which is a small moon,they're like.
Is that a moon?

Speaker 3 (01:26:03):
No, that's a I thought that might be one of
their quotes.

Speaker 1 (01:26:06):
What I was like that's no moon, that's no moon
and they're getting like tractorbeamed in Luke.
Luke says I have a very badfeeling about this, won't hear
that ever again, um, uh.
But there is like this greatline, um, by obi-wan.
It's like, uh, because they'relike.
They're like we can't fight andhe's like you can't win, but

(01:26:27):
they're all there arealternatives to fighting.
And it's great because he'sgoing to sacrifice himself later
and it allows them to get awaylast jedi.
So the ship is identified asthe same as the one that escaped
the Mos Eisley, and Darth Vaderbelieves that they were
beginning to bring the plans tothe Death Star, to Alderaan.
He also feels something hehasn't felt in a long time An

(01:26:49):
erection.

Speaker 3 (01:26:49):
So funny because like he sits there and he's like
something I haven't felt and Iwas like you could have delayed
a little bit longer, he's like Ihaven't felt Immediate turn
away.

Speaker 1 (01:26:59):
I've got to go put on different clothes.
He's a man of business, putshis travel paper in front of his
door.

Speaker 3 (01:27:03):
I've got to poop and you know what it's like trying
to poop and getting all thatstuff off here.

Speaker 1 (01:27:07):
Got to put in my breathing mask on and I had Taco
.

Speaker 3 (01:27:11):
Bell earlier.
I need to get going.

Speaker 1 (01:27:14):
No lava sauce, though no, so the group.
They're going to escape insidethe Death Star by hiding under
the floorboards of the ship andmaking it look like they
jettisoned from the ship usingthe escape pods, and they're
going to infiltrate the stationby dressing up as Imperial men
and stormtroopers and then theyget into the communication
station.
We had the imagination stationin Telehama, don't they not?

(01:27:39):
Did they have?

Speaker 2 (01:27:39):
like a getting dressed montage that they had to
cut out.

Speaker 1 (01:27:46):
I do love that.
It's like luckily they weren'twatching the ship that closely
because they obviously had torun out to attack those guys.
But it's great, I love all this.
It's wonderful, it's fun, feelslike an adventure, yeah, like
it's.
It's real, like spy stuff,which I guess is the kind of the
James Bond-y thing here, andit's just also.
Some of the funniest and likebest quotes from the entire
movie are in this, this sectionhere.

(01:28:07):
So R2-D2 hacks into thecomputer system and figures out
out the schematics of the.
He did some chopping motions,oh, and we thought that was
hilarious.

Speaker 3 (01:28:17):
It's been damn R2.

Speaker 1 (01:28:21):
As Obi-Wan leaves to disable the tractor boom R2-D2,
locates Leia on the ship.
The force will be with youAlways, damn, just like Harry
Potter, always.
Okay, is it?
Jk Rowling is problematic Isthis thing on always okay, is it
?
JK Rowling is problematic, isthis thing on?
So Luke persuades Han andChewbacca to help him rescue

(01:28:43):
Leia, who is scheduled forexecution after refusing to
reveal the location of the rebelbase.
Luke says that Leia is the oneon the message and so must be
someone important.
Han is only convinced when Lukesays that Leia is a princess
and the message and so must besomeone important.
Han is only convinced when Lukesays that Leia is a princess
and is likely to be rich andwill reward Han handsomely.
Unfortunately, then he gotdollar signs on his eyes.
Gotta talk his language.

Speaker 3 (01:29:04):
All her money gone.
Yep, she poor now.

Speaker 2 (01:29:08):
So, han and Luke, she be stripping in the evenings.

Speaker 1 (01:29:11):
Well, in the third movie, Han and Luke disguise as
stormtroopers, with Chewie astheir prisoner.

Speaker 2 (01:29:18):
That's why you kept printing that movie, you horny
bastard.
I was really young, you hornybastard.

Speaker 1 (01:29:23):
I didn't understand.
I was actually more attractedto Jabba.
Yeah, so as they get to, sothey address as their prisoner
Chewie's a prisoner as they'regoing to go to Leia's location,
vader can sense a presence onthe Death Star that he's not
felt since the presence of hisprevious master.
Um Chewie, luke and Han umdeceive some security.

(01:29:44):
Uh, they like essentially justlike just shoot him up, take him
out, um, and then you get likeone of the best bits in the
entire movie.
They're like Han's answering anintercom after commandeering an
attack on the station.
Everything's under control.
Situation normal Voice.
What happened?
We had a slight weaponsmalfunction, but everything's

(01:30:05):
perfectly all right now.
We're fine.
We're all fine here now.
Thank you, how are you?
We're sending up a squad,negative, negative.
We have a reactor leak here now, so give us a few minutes and
then it just shoots the thing.
What is your number?

Speaker 3 (01:30:20):
Uh, it's a boring conversation.

Speaker 1 (01:30:22):
Anyways, I just like it's so um Kasdan, uh, lawrence
Kasdan, who wrote most of uh themovie with George and he
directed the next one.
He said that's his favorite,his favorite thing he's ever
written for the Star Wars movies.
He says it's his best thing he'sdone.
That's funny, so yeah.

(01:30:43):
So then Luke, he finds Leia.
She's like aren't you a littlesmall to be a stormtrooper?
She shoots her because don'ttalk back, lady, just kidding.
Then Leia comes along when shehears Obi-Wan is with the group,
because you know she's justthinking like who are you, I
don't want to go with you.
This is going to be weird.
He reports to Moff that ohVader reports to Moff that

(01:31:06):
Obi-Wan is on the Death Star,which Moff can't believe as the
Jedi are extinct.
Well, dude, he didn't eventhink people could lie a second
ago.

Speaker 2 (01:31:14):
This isn't that crazy .

Speaker 1 (01:31:15):
As reinforcements arrive, the group is forced to
take a different route backthrough the garbage chute, but
they drop into a garbage masherwhich starts to close in after
being attacked by a garbagemonster Big, veiny tentacle.

Speaker 3 (01:31:25):
I love all that thing .
It just added more like it'sfunny, it's on a ship and you
got this weird like creaturethat you just wouldn't think
would be alive.

Speaker 1 (01:31:32):
That's funny, because when I was watching this time I
was like this is kind of anawkward scene.
We're just taking a really longtime for some reason here, but
I loved it as a kid.

Speaker 2 (01:31:44):
Like the rats on every ship.
It might have been just the wayI was feeling this morning.

Speaker 1 (01:31:47):
I don't know.
But I also love we also get.
This is where we get.
I got a bad feeling about this.
I promise we won't get thisanymore in any other movies.
We've already heard it twice inone.
I love Han and Leia's chemistry.
They're immediately like abickering couple.
It's like either I'm ready tokill her or I'm beginning to
like her.
They have babies together andit's just like true love exists,

(01:32:08):
except it doesn't, Because youknow they got a divorce
eventually.
So C-3PO manages to pick up acommunications unit.
When stormtroopers come intothe control room, they do not
recognize them as the escapeedroids.
This is where you get theclassic trooper bonk the
stormtrooper bonks his head.

Speaker 3 (01:32:27):
You got a gonk in here and then bonk.

Speaker 1 (01:32:28):
Bonk.
So, using the communicationsunit, c-3po gets into contact
with Luke and with R2-D2 in thecontrol room.
They disable the garbagemonster Masher.
Um.
The group celebrates while C3POthinks it's uh.

Speaker 3 (01:32:42):
Screams of terror, I love it, it's all my fault, it's
all my fault.

Speaker 1 (01:32:46):
I can't believe it.
I'm such an idiot for notthinking.
Maybe I should communicate withhim.
Um Han and Leia, uh uh, bickersome more and eventually the two
groups reach the hangar wherethe falcon is being kept.
After fighting, morestormtroopers um han running
after the stormtrooper, hold itright and then he sees like it's
so funny and good.

(01:33:08):
Um, so then darth vader followsuh the force and finds obi-wan
on the death star.
After disabling all the tractorbeams, obi-wan sacrifices
himself in a lightsaber duelagainst vader.
Obi-wan vanishes into thin airbefore darth vader's lightsaber
hits him.
He's striking me down.
I will become more powerfulthan you can imagine.
And uh uh, luke's like way sadabout it I love how vader was

(01:33:31):
like.

Speaker 3 (01:33:31):
I'm just double check here.
What the fuck was that?

Speaker 1 (01:33:33):
yeah, he just starts kicking it like he like.

Speaker 3 (01:33:35):
I don't remember hitting him because there should
be a body here.

Speaker 1 (01:33:38):
It's like if they did a parody now he'd just start
peeing on his coat.
So y'all don't like thelightsaber battle.

Speaker 2 (01:33:48):
It's like two timid people with very pokey sticks
trying not to hit each other toohard.

Speaker 3 (01:33:53):
I always have the joke.
It's like remember back when weused to be able to do flips and
stuff.
It's like yeah, and it's justlike, oh yeah, that's because he
didn't know he was gonna havehim do all these.

Speaker 1 (01:34:01):
Maybe he didn't really want to hurt his wacky
flips.

Speaker 3 (01:34:04):
Well, I know that someone came out I don't know if
he ever finished it and heredid the prequel stuff.
But they can move more.
That's like more accurate, tolike how they would be at that
age.
That's fun.
Why does like it?

Speaker 1 (01:34:17):
I mean you know, since everybody, just you know,
just thinks in their head it'slike oh, this is why this is
happening.

Speaker 2 (01:34:24):
I mean, it's two masters going at it and they
they're kind of timid and don'twant to like playing chess.
Yeah, yeah, kind of.

Speaker 1 (01:34:31):
You just say it's like that.

Speaker 3 (01:34:32):
But it's very slow chess.

Speaker 1 (01:34:34):
They just didn't have enough money for stunt doubles
Okay.

Speaker 2 (01:34:37):
Yeah, reading each other's, I like it.
I think there's a lot.

Speaker 1 (01:34:40):
There's a lot of story in the slow battle, yeah.

Speaker 2 (01:34:43):
I mean it's cool, it's time to talk, catch up.

Speaker 1 (01:34:51):
Well, no, I mean in just because you really get to
see the actor's faces acting,except for the guy in the mask,
of course.
How's your wife Heartbreak?
So Obi-Wan's sacrifice allowsthe rest of the group to escape

(01:35:11):
the Death Star.
Then we hear when a voice fromthe sky instructs Luke to escape
.
The Falcon fights off the TIEFighters First time we're really
seeing TIE Fighters.
I got one Greatest noise for aship ever.
It's the best.
So, using a tracking device onthe Falcon, the Empire locates
the robot base on the fourthmoon around the planet.
Yavin Leia informs Han thatR2-D2 is carrying the technical

(01:35:33):
specifications of Death Star.
Han doesn't care about any ofthe rebellion and just wants the
money.
I love it, Princess Leia.
It's not over yet, Han.
It is for me.
Sister, Look, I ain't in thisfor your revolution.
I'm not in it for you, princess.
I expect you, I expect to bewell paid.
I'm in it for the money,princess.
You don't need, you needn't toworry about your reward.

(01:35:53):
The money is all that you love.
Then that's what you'll receive.

Speaker 2 (01:35:57):
Luke's like stop talking to my really hot sister
like that no, he had it allplanned.

Speaker 1 (01:36:05):
Jesus Christ for a moment.
It looks like both Luke and Hanare interested in Leia, though,
cause like she walks off andthey're like I'm gonna do her,
not you game on.

Speaker 3 (01:36:17):
We gotta keep our bloodline pure, keep that force
strong, like it's such a greatload.

Speaker 1 (01:36:22):
You know like no one really talks about like that
little moment there, but it'ssuch a great moment of like
they're friends, everybody'skind of together here you got
like this budding romancebetween one of these two people.
Honestly, yeah, I'd watch it.
So the group lands on theplanet and we see X-Wings for
the first time.
They also look rad.

(01:36:44):
So analysis of the capturedDeath Star schematics reveals a
hidden weakness in a smallexhaust port two meters wide,
leading directly to thestation's reactor.
Two meters, yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:36:54):
That makes two meters .
I love the robot chickens wherethey're talking.

Speaker 2 (01:36:56):
It's like, hey, should we get rid of this
exhaust port?

Speaker 3 (01:36:59):
They explain it later .

Speaker 1 (01:37:01):
Yeah, they had to make a whole movie about it.

Speaker 3 (01:37:05):
They literally did.

Speaker 1 (01:37:06):
It's like hey you know what Don't really need it
because, it doesn't matter, it'sokay.
We don't have to haveeverything Put like a cover over
it or something.

Speaker 3 (01:37:17):
Hey, that was a good movie though it's fine, you
don't like.
Rogue One, it's fine.

Speaker 1 (01:37:22):
Sometimes I watch it and I'm like it's great, but
mainly I just think it'svisually great.
Sometimes I'm like it's kind ofboring.
I've watched it.
It has been.
Sometimes I watch it and I'mlike, oh, that's pretty good.
And sometimes I watch it andI'm like, alright, like let's
end this.
I don't know, but there's somegood parts in it and some parts
that I'm just like whatever.
So a precise hit will start achain reaction that will destroy

(01:37:43):
the station.
After collecting his reward byrescuing Leia, Han leaves the
rebels to pay off Jabba.
Luke wants them to stay.
Han calls to fight a suicidesuicide mission.
Then tells look, luke, may theforce be with you.

Speaker 3 (01:37:55):
Um I'm one with the force the forces with me.

Speaker 1 (01:37:58):
I'm one with the force.
The forces with me that's notcool.
No, oh my god, it was lame, ohmy god dude yeah out of here, I
mean, I think, that actor wasgood and like his, fighting was
pretty good, but I was just likethe chant, just I'm like it
doesn't work for me.

Speaker 2 (01:38:13):
It sounds silly, yeah , uh, so I love all these the
pilots that they picked to thefight.

Speaker 1 (01:38:20):
They're all fucking so weird yeah it's like what are
these george's friends?
Probably they all look likesuch 70s, like background actors
.

Speaker 2 (01:38:30):
That's what's great about it madeline was watching
this scene with me.
She, she's like why do theysound like family guy?
I was like I don't know,Probably because they're from
Rhode Island or something, yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:38:40):
So Leia kisses Luke for the second time in the movie
and Luke sees an old friend,biggs.
The Rebels plan their attack onthe Death Star as they detect
it's approaching towards theirmoon.
Luke joins the Rebels X-Wingsquadron of 30 ships, with R2-D2
installed on his own X-Wingfighter, in a desperate attack
against the approaching DeathStar, which will begin within

(01:39:00):
range and will be within rangein 15 minutes.
So essentially, this is the endof the movie and then, assuming
battle, vader leads a squadronof TIE fighters.
Well, so Luke and all themstart fighting.
They're able to like to goaround.
Their ships are too small forour turbo lasers.

Speaker 2 (01:39:15):
That's what this battle station is like.

Speaker 3 (01:39:18):
Like you guys really didn't think about that.
It's like I mean realisticallythey would.
You couldn't have some littleEwoks out there with some
slingshots?

Speaker 1 (01:39:29):
They would realistically probably have like
a thousand TIE fighters flyingaround just to make sure nothing
gets near them.
But budget right, what can youdo?
Um, but yeah, and they're,they're having some success, but
they just keep missing the hole.

Speaker 2 (01:39:40):
It should put some low flow toilets in there.
Yeah, but what?

Speaker 1 (01:39:44):
I love?
Is that vader's like?
Fuck it, I'm out here now andhe's got like a weirder tie
fighter.
That also looks rad that's theone I played in like uh, when
you the battlefront 2 play,playstation 2, one always loved
using that one.
Or like the Rogue One game,rogue Squadron I think that was
yeah, that was sick.
I think we can get that on ourlittle Mii U Mini, I think.
I think that was a PlayStation1 game.

(01:40:04):
Yeah, something like that but so, anyways, vader leads a
squadron of TIE fighters againstthe Rebels and they suffer
heavy losses.
Vader personally thwartsseveral rebel attempts to hit
the exhaust port with a photontorpedoes.
Luke is on the last run beforethe death star will be in range
of the rebel base.
So I had this pin right andlike if I it was like a multi

(01:40:24):
pin, every time I would clickone color.
It'd say a line from star Wars.
My favorite one was I can'tshake them.
I would just be like doinghomework, shake them.
So I would just be like doinghomework, just like I can't
shake them.
I can't shake them.
I just remember mom's like stop, I can't remember what the
other ones were.
I just I wore out that I can'tget ready porkins um, but

(01:40:48):
imagine me that guy outside it'slike what's my character's name
?

Speaker 2 (01:40:50):
porkins?
He's like that's a little onthe nose, isn't it?
Yeah, he's eating Cheetos.

Speaker 1 (01:40:55):
And everything looks like it's all going to be lost.
Luke's all alone, but thenyahoo.
Mario shows up HauntedChewbacca unexpectedly returned
to aid them in the Falcon,knocking Vader's ship off course
.
Before he can shoot Luke down,guided by the voice of Obi-Wan's
spirit, luke uses the force andswitches off the onboard

(01:41:15):
computer to aim his torpedoesinto the exhaust port, causing
the Death Star to explodemoments before it can fire on
the rebel base.
Obi-wan's spirit reminds Lukethat the force will always be
with him and also with you.

Speaker 2 (01:41:27):
It was kind of funny, like when he first started
talking in his head he almostcrashed because he got
distracted.
I don't know if that's reallywhat happened.

Speaker 1 (01:41:37):
If this was made in a galaxy far away around the time
about now, I'd just be liketexting.

Speaker 2 (01:41:42):
It's like hold on Texting while driving.

Speaker 1 (01:41:46):
Darth Vader runs into the Death Star, it's like damn.

Speaker 2 (01:41:50):
Somebody take his license away.
Porkins gets pulled over by acop.

Speaker 1 (01:41:55):
Hold on.
Let me finish this YouTubevideo.
He's going through Carl's Jr inspace.
Oh, but it's great they did it.
You know, it's just like it'sjust a small little thing, but
like they shot it so well and itlooks so good, it's crazy, it
was awesome.
Like the space looks good.
You can tell that it's like adifferent background, but it's
like whatever, I don't know itfucking goes I don't know.

(01:42:17):
I love this.
This is like bootstrapfilmmaking.

Speaker 2 (01:42:19):
Oh yeah, it makes me feel like I can do it I was so
excited when han comes in andfighting like blast those other
dudes I was just like I justfeel his chill in my spine.

Speaker 1 (01:42:28):
Yes, just watch it at night everybody's sleeping
you're like what I love is alsohan's.

Speaker 3 (01:42:34):
Like you know, I don't care about all these other
people who die.

Speaker 1 (01:42:36):
Let me go help my boy out real quick exactly dude,
it's a, b Hans Solo, he was justlike hmm, we'll get on.
Leia was kind of cute.
I'd like to lay her it's likealso maybe like Luke doesn't
look that bad.
They kind of look related.
But you know, chewie's likegive me some of that R2-D2.

Speaker 3 (01:42:56):
But anyways, the gang they land.

Speaker 1 (01:42:59):
They're all celebrating.
They're a big, happy family.
It's great.
And in a triumphant ceremony,leia awards Luke and Han medals
of their heroism.
And you know what?
I don't care about cleavage.
Who got medals?

Speaker 2 (01:43:11):
yeah, my god do you think any of the other people in
the audience are like why thefuck are they getting medals?

Speaker 1 (01:43:17):
Yeah, because did R2-D2 and C-3PO get medals?
No, without them, none of thishappens.

Speaker 3 (01:43:23):
Did Leia get a medal?

Speaker 1 (01:43:25):
No, she's the fucking like leader of the whole group.
Those are the people thatshould also be getting medals,
though Chewie should have gottenone.
But it's also a fantasy movieand okay, we, we really just
look at the wrong things, but ifyou care, I get it.
It's fun of Star Wars.
It's like it's like see here,it's just like don't make them
like change movies, becauseanyways, that's Star Wars.

(01:43:50):
It's a perfect film.
Hate, everybody says it's greatsecond best one hate.

Speaker 3 (01:43:54):
Everybody says it's boring.
You'd love what a girlfriendsays she hates the old ones,
like they're so boring I don'ttrust any opinion jibber has
about anything that's awesome, Imean the same thing.

Speaker 1 (01:44:05):
So let's do our first category the good, the bad, the
ugly, the fine.
It's where we discuss the goodof the film, something we like.
The bad, something we didn'tlike.
The ugly, something that didn'tage well.
The fine, something that didage well.
Who wants to start with thegood shit, don't do me.

Speaker 2 (01:44:20):
I'm about to say, like all of it uh, I don't know,
it was cool to watch againafter I hadn't seen it, probably
since I was like 12 orsomething really, really, yeah,
oh man, I watch these like everycouple of years it's been like
probably since Rise of Skywalker, since I watched them.

Speaker 1 (01:44:39):
No, that's absolutely untrue.

Speaker 2 (01:44:41):
I did kind of enjoy watching to see what was
different, even though some ofthem didn't track, but still
cool.

Speaker 1 (01:44:48):
I like just the imagination man yeah, it was
awesome, great story.

Speaker 3 (01:44:52):
People had it bring back broke people trying to make
movies.
Yeah, Bring back that fire thatpeople had.
Give me movies that feel likemovies again.
Then we got Rebel Moon.
I couldn't even get past thefirst 20 minutes so I was so
damn bored in it.

Speaker 1 (01:45:07):
Yeah, and also obviously the good is, just you
know the models and uh uh modelsand stuff.

Speaker 2 (01:45:16):
It's awesome, oh yeah .

Speaker 1 (01:45:17):
No, just like you know miniatures and things like
that.

Speaker 2 (01:45:20):
It looks really great .

Speaker 1 (01:45:21):
It's just an inspirational movie for
filmmakers.

Speaker 2 (01:45:24):
And it was.
It was fun to just um noticesomething new about it that I
didn't remember, you know?
Yeah, I think that's it.

Speaker 3 (01:45:31):
It gives you to go back and when you watch a bunch
of like, when you're watchingnewer movies, then you go back
and watch one of these.
It's like why does it feel likethese are just like?
Always makes you wonder.
It's like is it my old mangoggles?

Speaker 2 (01:45:42):
just having nostalgia , it just feels like a warm hug.

Speaker 3 (01:45:44):
Or is this like watching something and
appreciating movies on adifferent level than you can?

Speaker 2 (01:45:49):
Yeah, I did think Princess Leia was so much hotter
now than when I was that age inthis movie.

Speaker 1 (01:45:57):
Yeah, I've always been a big Honda.

Speaker 2 (01:46:01):
You see people with dance routines.
I saw a dance routine of thisgirl wearing the gold bikini
with a big Jabba on stage behindher.
His mouth was moving to thewords of a song while she was
doing a sexy little dance.

Speaker 1 (01:46:18):
The influence this thing had.
Dude, that fucking goes.
That's ridiculous.
Um, alright, um, the batsshould be pretty easy.
Uh, did you do your good did?

Speaker 3 (01:46:28):
you have anything else.
This is the cultural influenceand what it has like done and
I'm just enjoying like the view,yeah, movies in general with it
, because this one can reallystand.
I feel like if it was a one-offit could, it could stand that
yeah, still be its own thing, ohyeah, um the bad nothing, the
CG, I like it all the CGadditions later on.

Speaker 1 (01:46:48):
Shit uh well, yeah, I got that.
My ugly uh adding see addingbad CG to oh yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:46:53):
I got my ugly um anything else for bad, the bad
just no, I mean no, yeah, notreally for me.

Speaker 1 (01:47:02):
I got the ugly and it was Star Wars becoming a
product, not a vision.
I'll go with that, my ugly isthe fandom yeah it's like I hate
saying that because you knowthere are good fans.
You know it's not.
I hate saying that because youknow there are good fans.
You know it's not all of them,it's just the loud ones the ones
who make the most noise get themost attention.

Speaker 3 (01:47:21):
yeah, but the thing you can't say it's like not the
whole fandom, but when you havea strong enough majority that
the guy who played young Anakinhad to go, like it fucked with
him mentally, like for years hehad to go through.
He went through a lot becauseof the shit that they like.
Just talked constantly and dideverything.

Speaker 1 (01:47:37):
Yeah, right, guys no good.

Speaker 3 (01:47:39):
Christopher Lloyd, right yeah something like that.

Speaker 1 (01:47:41):
yeah, what do you got for ugly?

Speaker 2 (01:47:45):
Doesn't seem like there's any brown people in
space.

Speaker 3 (01:47:48):
Not until the sequel, don't worry.

Speaker 2 (01:47:51):
Well, if this, just this one.

Speaker 1 (01:47:53):
And don't worry, you get.
We get the brown person and hebetrays the white people.

Speaker 3 (01:47:57):
Don't worry yeah.
Years later when we get thesequels, we got a brown person
who was supposed to be a maincharacter gets sidelined to
nothing else but saying Ray.

Speaker 2 (01:48:08):
Yeah, but you know, that was just something I
noticed, Like I just I rememberthat all the other movies kind
of they do, and but this, thisone, I don't think.
I don't think I remember seeinga single non-white person in
the whole movie.

Speaker 1 (01:48:19):
It's pretty wild, or?

Speaker 2 (01:48:20):
whatever they got aliens.

Speaker 1 (01:48:22):
I think they're supposed to be the Tusken
Raiders and they're not donevery well in this oh boy talk
about no snake.
Okay, so for the fine, I putactors in the music.
It's all great.

Speaker 3 (01:48:34):
Yes, john Williams, man yeah.

Speaker 1 (01:48:37):
A legend.

Speaker 2 (01:48:37):
Didn't they change the person who does the music,
whatever that's called, from thevery composer, huh the composer
, Didn't they change from thevery beginning, like after the
first 30 minutes?

Speaker 1 (01:48:49):
to a different composer.
Well, they had an originalcomposer and they didn't like
anything he was doing, so theybrought in a little known guy
named Williams.

Speaker 3 (01:48:57):
I got sad the other day.
It was like oh, john Williamsshowed up at this place like a
music thing, school, whateverand the comment was like I was
not anticipating to see him in awheelchair and I was like, oh
my God, he's that old, we can'tlose him.

Speaker 1 (01:49:11):
He's our last one.
Dude's old All right, can'tlose him.
He's our last one.
Dude's old alright.
That's that category.
We're gonna head to doublefeature.

I watched it recently.
I mean there's long portions ofit where you're like this is
bad, we're jokes yeah.

Speaker 3 (01:50:01):
Yeah, I do remember that.
I hate it because we did it,but Dune would be my
recommendation.

Speaker 2 (01:50:05):
Hell yeah, man, it's perfect been done.

Speaker 1 (01:50:18):

It's like a cool, a weird space.

do it a little bit.
I tried to like stop it when Iknew it was gonna go on just

(01:50:40):

Speaker 3 (01:50:41):
I don't think people understand the level of like how
many times are both our womenthe second we bring up the Last
Jedi we have talked about foryears?
If he ever does an episodewhere it's just discuss the Last
Jedi, it will probably be sofucking long.

Speaker 1 (01:50:55):

like later this year do EmpireStrikes Back.

commentary episode Maybe.

Speaker 1 (01:51:10):
January.
I'll just do all the prequelsin just one month to get them
out of the way.
Well, I think that'll be ournegative year if you want.

Speaker 3 (01:51:19):

like a part one, part two if youwanted to do, because I always
thought you could do prequelsone bunch.
