Introduction and Christmas Special
00:00:00
Speaker
Welcome back listeners to Han took shots first and watchers and watchers today. Yeah, I mean sometimes you guys are watchers but always listening. It doesn't matter. like Welcome back to fans and guests and friends and enemies and frenemies. This is Han took shots first and this is a Christmas special for you people.
00:00:23
Speaker
um We're not doing the holiday special again. Whitney's just happy to not be watching the holiday special. I'll be really honest. I will say the subtitles say this is a Christmas present. Well, yeah, it's a gift.
00:00:34
Speaker
But ah we decided.
Return of the Jedi Commentary Decision
00:00:36
Speaker
So if you guys remember, if you're paying attention to our timeline, we skipped over Return of the Jedi. ah There was as a technical issue. I'm going to say it was my fault off bat offhand. No, we've already we we've already ratted me out. I'm going to blame the guest.
00:00:51
Speaker
He's the one who had to get to his chair. No, it was me. Okay. Well, I'm going to blame the guest anyway. He's not here. No, he listens. It's not the guest's fault. I'm just giving him a hard time. But we had a technical issue. The episode never happened um because we were missing an entire thread of the conversation. So what we decided to do to make this maybe easier, maybe harder. It's already feeling like it's a little harder. um We're doing live. Well, not live.
00:01:16
Speaker
a recorded syncable commentary for return to the Jedi episode six. So we're going to, we have the movie paused, uh, 11 seconds. You could jump on your Disney plus or whatever. It's paused
Rumors of Star Wars 4K Release
00:01:29
Speaker
at 11 seconds. This is going to be the,
00:01:31
Speaker
ah The there special editions at least It's got the added crap in We wanted to make it easiest for you guys Not everybody has sweet 4Ks of the originals Although, Jack, did you hear hear the rumors That that might be coming for real?
00:01:44
Speaker
Oh really? there's Like not bootlegs? There's leaked footage online Or leaked screenshots That has like official lookings, timestamps I can't believe anything with AI running amok All these clankers out there It might just be it might be something fake, but there's been a lot of stuff from different sources that I've seen pop up and people are thinking they're doing it because they're struggling.
00:02:04
Speaker
Yeah. You know what? It's a smart move because you're going get a lot of fans back with that. All those old, all those old timers where only the OG trilogy matters. Here you go. Yeah. So there might be a real version of that coming down the line, but there's not right now. That'd be rad.
00:02:17
Speaker
So we're going watching special editions. um I believe this is probably the Disney plus version. We're just watching it on the internet. No questions. We haven't paused at 11 seconds. yeah Right after the 20th century Fox logo faded out.
00:02:34
Speaker
So hopefully you have that on your version.
Directing Return of the Jedi
00:02:36
Speaker
And I'm Whitney. And Whitney's here. We didn't introduce ourselves. It's fine. But yes, we are talking about Return of the Jedi, you guys. Cosmo Kramer, goddammit. Originally released 1983, directed by one Richard Marquand, ah who died in 1987.
00:02:57
Speaker
Rust in Pictures. Rust in Pictures. And was apparently... We talked about it a little bit last time. I don't remember all the deets, but he was a last-minute replacement kind of thing. ah So from Empire of Dreams, the 2004 documentary, George Lucas's first choice to direct was Steven Spielberg, because they had done Raiders together. And Spielberg said he would love to direct one, but he was forced to decline because he's a member of the Directors Guild, and George Lucas dropped his guild membership over disagreements about Episode 5, which we previously discussed, because he was hiring non-union people.
00:03:31
Speaker
And it also stems from a little bit... I know it was more than non-union, but... um No credits in the beginning. Yeah, that was a big thing, too. Yes, you're right. I forgot about that. Because that's something that now happens all the time, where it just goes right into the movie. 77, he got scolded for it and like, don't do it again.
00:03:48
Speaker
Came back for episode five, and he's like, I'm going to do it again, bitch. This time even stronger. Fuck. So he basically, he hired Richard Marquand, who was basically unknown and also non-union because he liked this one movie he had done called Eye of the Needle. Okay.
00:04:08
Speaker
Eye of the Needle, gonna sew my socks up. But then there are other sources. Gonna make my pants much tighter. There are other sources who have said that basically this movie was directed by George
Box Office Success and Lucas's Involvement
00:04:20
Speaker
Lucas. Yeah. You are really good at that. Sorry. He needed a yes man. Yeah. So he found a yes man and then he showed up and basically did everything. Did we talk about the fact that he had ah like signs made when he got sick for faster? We talked about that on one of them. Yeah. Faster, better. Faster, better, stronger.
00:04:38
Speaker
Harder. um We have the technology to rebuild them. Like Vader. We'll kick off with a ah box office game before we hit play. If you guys want to do that real quick. And just so anybody know anybody listening, there's no fucking chance we remember these numbers, dude. There's no chance. We recorded that episode in like February. So it cost $15 million to make right? No, it million to make.
00:05:02
Speaker
Which is still really cheap. And it made 15 notes. I have two numbers. i don't These are old notes, so I don't know what the first number is. But the second number just says with re-releases. So let's do that.
00:05:13
Speaker
With re-releases, I'm thinking $500 Yeah, i figured. Even though it's on well it's not in our main feed. um i am going to million.
00:05:29
Speaker
482 million apparently was probably the least re-released one The Jedi? I would think i mean because The other two were re-released like Four re-released when five came out They were probably both re-released when this came out i mean it yeah It had runs even before five came out i mean like They were just like put it back in theaters And it had, the at the time, the biggest opening weekend it gross in history, $23 million, dollars ah which the previous one was Star Trek II, The Wrath of Khan, which was $20 million. dollars so You don't have to whisper that. No, no. Sorry. It's not $20 million. It wasn't $20 million. It was just under $20 million. This was the first movie to gross over $20 million in its opening weekend. Yeah.
00:06:10
Speaker
So that's pretty cool. Setting fucking boundaries. But I don't know. I got a bunch of shit here. I didn't reread it before we started. So let's just start it. Yeah. Oh, this is the first time we hear both Boba Fett and TIE Fighter. Oh, OK.
00:06:24
Speaker
If you don't include a the holiday special. I always do. I always do. But yeah. Oh, we'll definitely know what version it is by what voice it is, too.
00:06:36
Speaker
Oh, and this is the one, one last thing, because just saw it here and it reminded me. This is the one that David Lynch was supposedly supposed to direct. Would
Technical Aspects of Original Trilogy
00:06:46
Speaker
have not fit into the trilogy. Would have been a banger movie.
00:06:51
Speaker
So apparently both David Lynch and David Cronenberg were considered, which would have just been most insane Star Wars ever. Lynch declined saying that's Lucas's thing, and Cronenberg declined because he wanted to make Videodrome. I mean, Cronenberg made a great choice. Also, I could not imagine. If he's putting vaginas in humans' chest, what's he going to put with aliens? On top of the eyeballs or vaginas. That's going to be weird. Nose is a penis, and you poop out of your mouth. Oh, God.
00:07:20
Speaker
and You poop out of your mouth? And you kiss by putting your butts together. I guess you're glad your nose is a penis if you poop out of your mouth. That way have to smell that shit. Yeah. Otherwise, oh, my God. did you wipe your nose when you' were done? So we are paused 11 seconds.
00:07:34
Speaker
The 20th Century Fox logo just faded out or the Disney logo, whichever version you're watching. I don't know how they ever redid it. I honestly never watched this. This version except for one time on Disney Plus right before the ah sequels came out. I watch this movie every Halloween. Don't ask me why.
00:07:52
Speaker
And ah I've had to use the Disney Plus version before.
Jabba's Palace Scene Commentary
00:07:56
Speaker
So there's that. You have that information about me now. I probably have seen this like three times. okay I literally think it's this rogues gallery is why. like it's all Everyone's in costume. him I had watched this movie, but when all those special editions were out and stuff and I knew I didn't want to watch them, i I have the VHS tape still from the very last version that came out before the special editions.
00:08:17
Speaker
i had gotten have those two I had gotten someone to ah rip those to a disc. Oh, dope. I had like a really shitty VHS rip on a DVD. If I really wanted to watch it, I would just pop that in and squint.
00:08:30
Speaker
I remember that. That's when i rewatched when I was like, I want to watch them chronologically. Look what Star Wars fans will go through to not watch the specialized edition. I'll just squint.
00:08:41
Speaker
Which doesn't help. It's not like it's blurry because my vision. It's blurry because it's 140p. I'll just take my glasses off and get really drunk. This is the way everything looks now. So, you guys, if you're watching along, this will work if you're not watching along, probably. I don't know. We'll find out.
00:08:55
Speaker
But we're just going to talk the whole time. So if you want to watch this movie, maybe watch it and then go back and watch it again with us. We're just a simple podcast trying to make our way in this galaxy. We've never done something like this. So it's right it's a new thing and we want to try. We've been talking about doing commentary for a long time. So Merry Christmas to you.
00:09:12
Speaker
Hit play in three, two, go. go
00:09:19
Speaker
but to Oh, we're getting get sued for that. It's got my name on this movie.
Luke's Rescue Plan and Character Dynamics
00:09:27
Speaker
I put it in my notebook.
00:09:29
Speaker
Do guys know this was a long time ago in a galaxy far, far away? I'll never know. No clue. I don't care how many times it's been. That gets me every time. That fanfare, that big horn burst.
00:09:41
Speaker
I think I told a story about going to see episode seven. So we don't get taken off the internet. shit I literally, it was just like, I've never watched this this quiet before. No, no. In my head. When I went and saw Force Awakens, I was nervous. Like I was going on a fucking date and I sat there when that fucking thing hit goosebumps everywhere. Oh, did you get verklempt? I got verklempt. that means he almost got burning those guys. Luke's coming back from Tatooine for X amount of time. Somebody's worked it out.
00:10:09
Speaker
And I think it's like a month, maybe. that thought you said before it was like I don't remember now. It it can be. i don't know. there's no There's no definitive source for it.
00:10:21
Speaker
But little does Luke know that the Galactic Empire has secretly but be begun construction on a new something, something, like something, death star. Harvard Space Station. I just skipped ahead. Something, something, space station.
00:10:36
Speaker
When it's fully operational, this ultimate weapon will spell certain doom. So you remember that thing we did in the first one? Let's do that again. But bigger. Because it is, by the way. it's that This Death Star is huge in comparison to the Death Star. Isn't it like four times the size? Much larger.
00:10:56
Speaker
Ten times. Much larger. Could you put ten of the same one inside of it? Probably. Okay, so a thousand times. It's like trying to fit Rhode Island inside of Texas. Oh, you could do that. That's what I mean. yeah But this is the one that they're building? Yes. Okay. And people often criticize. They're like, why is it why did this take so little time when the first one took you know the entire time between episodes three and four? Because they were still trying to figure out plans.
00:11:23
Speaker
And you had ah Galen Erso, sexy Mads Mikkelsen, sabotaging the entire time. Oh, that's right. So now you have that technology and he's not in your way. You're like, cool, now we can fucking do this. Also, don't forget to put like a ah shield of some sort over that exhaust port. Yeah. No, they fixed that. I think they put multiple ports so it just wouldn't funnel in like that.
00:11:47
Speaker
This guy's hat's always... Maybe this Hulk could be that guy. Does everybody have their stupid hats on? All right, good.
00:11:54
Speaker
You know that screen it just showed with the Arbosh? I wonder if that actually said anything or if Arbosh hadn't been worked out yet. and know. You want me to pull up the IMDb trivia? Nope. i'll I'll do it on my own time so no one knows so Classy doesn't make fun of me for reading Arbosh. That's pretty intense detail that they had on that. These models are fucking insane. You are getting a mixture of models and paintings as well. Yeah. Like a lot of this floor is paintings. and When there's stormtroopers standing like a bunch of them it's a lot of it's paintings.
00:12:24
Speaker
Maybe by our friend Matt. Ooh, we love Matt.
00:12:32
Speaker
Lambda class shuttle. One of my favorite stupid ships. Yeah, never knew what it was called. I was like, it's the bird one. Yeah, it does bird ballet. it does do. It's a little pirouette thing. Yes.
00:12:44
Speaker
when you take off, I want you look really like you're butterfly stretching after having a good morning. So the stupid hats reminded me. I saw a thing today that Spaceballs 2 has officially wrapped. Oh, shit. I think I sent that to you. It's probably going to suck, but I'm super excited. I'm going go watch it anyway.
00:13:06
Speaker
Can I please lick your boots? and I can give it a little bit more volume. Jude Locke play that character. wanted turn down so we didn't get in trouble for that John Williams music. Disney will come at you. He's impressive.
00:13:25
Speaker
James Earl Jones booming fucking voice, dude. never Never disappoints. Never. The emperor does not share your optimistic something, something. coming in here?
00:13:37
Speaker
Somebody get me three seashells. just myself. need to rub it on my asshole. Or scrape. Oh wait, it's not the future, it's the past, remember? Oh yeah. Damn it. It's the future of the past.
00:13:53
Speaker
Or the past of the future. I guess all past is past of the future. He's known for choking people out and the emperor's less forgiving than that? Yeah. Oh god. He eats them.
00:14:04
Speaker
Just roast them with electricity. Unlimited power! Unlimited pork rinds. Well, that's a dream.
00:14:17
Speaker
How does R2 never complain about the sand? We don't know. Yeah, we don't know what he's saying. He's one of the few droids, one of the only I can think of that's never had his memory wiped. Right, and that's why he's so Which makes him super sassy, dude. Yeah, for sure.
00:14:33
Speaker
Although Hu yeah who Yang from... ah The Ahsoka series and the Rebel cartoons, the lightsaber droid, he is ancient. Like, he's like 25, 30,000 years old.
00:14:46
Speaker
I don't remember him at all. probably Voiced by David Tennant. okay He's on Ahsoka's ship. I don't remember that at all, but I've only watched Ahsoka the one time when it first aired.
00:14:57
Speaker
We're just about there. Love this droid. <unk>o Spoiler alert, I'm going to be on Ahsoka. You're going Ahsoka? Ahsoka. I'm going to be on top of her.
00:15:13
Speaker
ah Do you have time to talk about our Lord and Savior, Luke Skywalker? I have some literature here. Wait, no, actually I don't because there's no paper in this universe. Not anymore. Take this holochip.
00:15:24
Speaker
There was paper, but that was back in the High Republic, so... There wasn't any in George Lucas's though. Like it was, it was after George that they were like, all right, we could put paper in episode nine. Uh, acolyte. That's what I was thinking of. Yeah.
00:15:40
Speaker
It's in episode nine as well. When they burn down that temple, just opens the door and he's just, or just like, fuck it. Let's roll. There's one of those monks. Ooh, it's a weird spider thing. It's it's a brain in a jar.
00:15:54
Speaker
It's the, the board. It's not Boromir. Whatever monks they are, they've left their bodies behind. Oh, we just watched this guy die. Nah, these are the lazy ones. Those other ones were like gladiators.
00:16:09
Speaker
Because we're going to see them die later.
00:16:13
Speaker
We watched him die. He's got like a fucking ball sack for a neck. it's the It's his tendrils. No, that one's just his neck.
00:16:25
Speaker
No, it's wrapped around. yep nos That's just his throat. That's just his throat. It's like he had 15 testicles in his throat. Sounds like a good Saturday.
00:16:46
Speaker
So he's not a Twi'lek. Yes, he is. Oh, okay. But he's only got one tendril. No, I think he's got two just... Yeah, it's wrapped around and the other one's going down. Yeah, the one is going around from the back and going over the one shoulder and the other one's going... He just like a bubble on of his head. And the Twillights have a bunch... They just made them look different than each other every now and then. His just start out farther down because he's got that weird thing coming out the top of his head. Sorry, that gummy kicked in. Surprisingly, it wasn't flushed out. I think his problem is that...
Cultural Impact of Minor Characters
00:17:21
Speaker
is from Space Alabama here, Tatooine. Okay. So his parents were related. So he's got the lumpy neck, the lumpy head He's got the mullet of tendrils. On Rylop, they were trying to keep that bloodline pure. Love that. Puppet. prue ah Puppets, puppets.
00:17:34
Speaker
Frog dog. Frog dog. Frog dog apparently are a sentient species. And they choose to be pets because their life is easier that way. hey Wait, i guess who's who's a pet? The frog dog puppet that he saw. Oh.
00:17:49
Speaker
joke Java just smoking this fucking hookah. Hell yeah. He's got like toad in there. Oh man, we know about death sticks, right? This is just a death bong.
00:18:01
Speaker
It's like a but ah hookah, not bong. I know, but he's doing drugs. Uh-oh. he's ah He's a big spice running gangster. He does get high on his own supply. So the way this hologram looks, that's kind of how the whole movie looked when I was watching it.
00:18:16
Speaker
A little bit clearer. Not bad. But I will say that that hologram, on the other hand, looked awful.
00:18:27
Speaker
Yeah, this rogues gallery is just one
Jedi Philosophy and Luke's Journey
00:18:29
Speaker
of my favorites. Okay, so if it wasn't for the Ewoks, this would probably be my favorite Star Wars movie. Because it has... has her. She's beautiful.
00:18:44
Speaker
It has this rogues gallery of just fucking bad guys that are awesome, hot chicks that are sexy. Do I need to keep going? Well, it's the third one, so they're like, okay, we trust George. We'll let him spend more money making dolls. ah
00:19:00
Speaker
They're not dolls. They're action figures. It's a dollable.
00:19:11
Speaker
I can't appreciate that even though they add in some of the stupid shit like what's coming up here in a moment, they didn't go through and CG out things like Jabba. Make him just sit there and squirm and slime and goop. Yeah. And do so extra CG gross stuff.
00:19:26
Speaker
Yeah, they kept it. Because, i dude, you it's like, what was it, like eight people working in this puppet? There's six people working Jabba? Yeah. And it shows that's the work you want.
00:19:40
Speaker
That's still awesome, and I would love to have one of those. You can get the coffee table of it. It's just way more than I want to spend money on. It's not that i I don't want to. I don't have it. I don't think I want the coffee table version. Oh, God knows i do.
00:19:52
Speaker
But, like, literally something on the wall. Hannibal Lecter's back there. my window. Hello, Clarice.
00:19:59
Speaker
I would like some fava beans and some blue milk.
00:20:05
Speaker
Some bacta beans. I was going to say, it wouldn't be fava beans. No, what you don't know is ah farva Fava is an alien race in Star Wars. Just torturing a gong droid. Oh, no.
00:20:16
Speaker
Don't touch the fetis. Is that Matt Berry's guy? Yeah. Like, is that the same one? Yes. You think? Yeah. Yes. That's awesome.
00:20:26
Speaker
Why are they torturing that monkey droid? Look at this fucked up leg on this other one. Little spider monkey? I love it, dude. It's just a torturous workshop.
00:20:41
Speaker
we Use all all six million of those languages to shut the fuck up. Look in the back, you got the duck droid that's made it in every... Well, and about now, he made in the original trilogy through each movie.
00:20:59
Speaker
i don't even think the one they just tortured was a protocol droid. Look at her, a medic droid. So, like, he healed somebody wrong. They're like, fuck you. ah This fucking doll behind him. ah Oh, that creepy face in the back.
00:21:16
Speaker
There's an astromech just like fucking Akira'd into the wall back there. What is that? What? In the back. That's
Rebel Alliance Strategy and Character Relationships
00:21:24
Speaker
the one that's... Oh, you didn't watch bea fe all of Boba Fett with us.
00:21:27
Speaker
No. He's his... What would you... Like his... He's like his... Major Domo? Yeah, his bookkeeper. His consigliere? Hey, look, it's me, babe. Shut up.
00:21:40
Speaker
That one with the hair. I know, that's why I told you to shut up. I thought you meant I meant that thing. Look, it's me. But that's me. wish I was Max Rebo. So I think I told this in the last one. fucking... When they did the reach the the remastered versions, they had this girl come back. That thing is horrendous. And she looks just as good. What the fuck is that?
00:22:00
Speaker
That's the honeycomb monster that we all hate. What the hell is that thing in here for? What's his name? like both Jack? Jimmy Jack? Jimmy Jack Crack Corn? We don't need either of these CG monsters. this. What is this? Yeah.
00:22:15
Speaker
There's Boba Fett, we need him. This was George really proud of some technology that just came about. i do like the Thielen, Rodian, and Twi'lek dancers, though. It's like they couldn't even well he boba they couldn't even match the lighting here.
00:22:32
Speaker
Yeah. Max Moribo. I know we're just beating a dead horse at this point, but like... But I mean, look how much it takes shit out of you. like Even your wife, who's not the biggest Star Wars fan, straight up was like, what is that?
00:22:44
Speaker
yeah It's like Vanilla Ice walked in right now. What is that? What is this song? Jedi Power or some shit? Yeah. Speaking of Vanilla Ice, Turtle Power. Yeah. Go, Jedi. Go, Jedi. Go. Go, Jedi. It is called Jedi something or Jedi rock. ah Jedi rock, like which is kind of funny because it's what would that be like? Rebel rock.
00:23:06
Speaker
Yeah, right. The Jedi will rise again, brother. It's Southern. It's Southern rock. first Hey, let me tell you, when you're a Jedi, kissing your sister ain't that weird. So one of the things I do remember from before that I had my notes, the Rancor, probably. Is this the first time we see the Rancor? Uh-huh. Okay. So the Rancor scream like their roars are actually just a dachshund.
00:23:28
Speaker
Oh, that's great. Just slowed down. Obviously. Yeah. Like tweak. like Not just slow down, but like they obviously like pitch manipulated, pitch shifted, all that stuff. But it's a dachshund. Look at this. du We could pause this. I'm not, we're not going to don't know. No one pause our TV.
00:23:41
Speaker
We could pause this and just have a fucking hour and a half of going through these aliens. Cause most of these are characters at this point. Ooh. And you know, like each one of these, uh, Boshi,
00:23:52
Speaker
was ah Was a bounty hunter. They had to get this whole personality stolen from. Should we get a haircut? Yeah. He's got like a 90s floppy hair. No, I think it's in his collar. He has bangs. He went through something. Another note I have here, because just... give me the best Sorry, there's a really good threesome happening tonight. Boba Fett, that Twi'lek, and that Thielen. Yikes. i'm just i'm The helmet stays on. Scanning my notes. Here's another fun noise note I had. Jabba's slithery noises were created by sound designer Ben Burtt running his hands through a cheese casserole.
00:24:26
Speaker
Ew. Ew. How did you not even do that? Dude, we've talked about it. These Foley guys are amazing. We need a slippery sound. Oh, my God. I was running through my hands through my cheese casserole last night. It sounds great. You got to try this. Well, I mean, think about E.T., right? Speaking of aliens and weird noises, wet jello. T-shirt full of jello. Come on.
00:24:46
Speaker
I said wet jello because it's a dry version. There is. It's just powder, though. Oh, yeah. It's true. It's the one that's been sitting now on the first co counter. Oof. oh
00:25:00
Speaker
You're dumb. Because I got a detonator and I'm ready to die.
00:25:11
Speaker
i found this place in my notes because I wrote ho, ho, ho, ho. ho Did I often laugh like Jabba the Hutt when I'm in my house coming home from the bar drunk and I find something to eat? Like, oh, there's nothing here. Oh, ho, ho. Why are you going through your notes?
00:25:27
Speaker
i just Just things I wrote down that like were ah research I had done. Just looking for stuff like that. yeah The design of Leia's costume is one of my favorite fucking masks. Why is he covered in disgustingness? Jabba hit him.
00:25:39
Speaker
Yeah, we were we were talking to Jabba. His arm. His big goopy cheese casserole arm. oh Oh, is that where the cheese casserole comment came from? It's an excretion.
00:25:51
Speaker
Was it a fluffy cheese casserole? Fluffy. fucking did it myself. I like when the cheese is nice and fluffy. It's funny because as I read cheese casserole, I was like, is this where that joke came from? And we've been making it for months and nobody knows why because that episode was never released. Probably. Oh, God. No, I think I just drunkenly said it.
00:26:11
Speaker
Oh, you can't tell that's Lando. He's going to pull his mask down just so you can see Just so can see that beautiful fucking lip. I'm going to fuck my way through Jabba's barge. I've been undercover for a week. I've already fucked all these things. How come you didn't report back? I was busy.
00:26:28
Speaker
Fucking getting busy. I volunteer as tribute. Yeah, I think a lot of people did.
00:26:39
Speaker
That stuff was added. Yeah, it's the unnecessary stuff. That's why I never watched any of the special editions in theaters beyond the first one, because I was like, I get you want to add stuff, man, but why is it all just silly shit? yeah I watched them because they were out.
00:26:52
Speaker
I went and saw the first one in theaters, and so that was what, 97? Uh-huh. So I was 12, and I was like, nah. Yeah, I didn't care. which is like So it's not like me having an internet influence or me being some old person who's like, I was 12, and I was like, hmm.
00:27:08
Speaker
I thought, i can go see a movie for a couple of bucks, and it's got a Star Wars. I'm happy. There had to be like that few the Lucas fanatic that like anything he does is gold that were just absolutely no fucking absolutely stoked about that stuff coming out. I don't think There has to be someone that was just like- There's to be someone, but I have never met them in real life or on the internet. Well, I'm saying someone that would like are <unk> not our parents' ages, but our very
Rebel Alliance Final Battle Preparations
00:27:34
Speaker
young aunt or uncle- age that weird get age gap that was like the right age when this originally came out yeah and then when it came out with the redo because i would have been the target age i was 12 i would have been the target age but i had grown up so even if that's the first but even if that was the first you ever saw it when you do go back and watch the old ones you're like oh shit this is better
00:27:56
Speaker
Yeah, there's nothing to add. But when it came out, there had to be somebody stroking his cock is all I'm saying. I don't think so. You just get people that are like, I'm never watching George Lucas stuff again. or Or like the Derricks, it's like, I'm not going to go watch that. Or the Me's, they're like, going to watch that, but I'm not going to be happy about that part.
00:28:14
Speaker
And I guess, I mean, so far, it's been scaled back from even the first one, you know, because the first one, it was like as soon as you hit Tatooine, it was just there was so much just crap flying around. Why is the screen so busy? Tatooine is supposed to be like a a halfway uninhabited backwater. Exactly. Right. And it was just like so many things flying around and ships and monsters and whatever. And it was like, let's calm the fuck down. They more Imperials, too. That's not how it's supposed to be.
00:28:41
Speaker
Yeah, that's it's the outer outer rim job. It's the outer rim job.
00:28:48
Speaker
I kept wanting to say outer Outer Worlds, and I was like, nope, that's a video game. ah that's I don't recognize your face.
00:29:00
Speaker
Someone who loves you very much. Sorry, sorry. Someone who loves you very much.
00:29:07
Speaker
The helmet stays on. God, she is gorgeous. Yes, she is. I'm having a whole fantasy about her. Especially in a little bounty hunter outfit. My God. She could have left the mask just halfway and I would have been way okay with it too.
00:29:20
Speaker
She would look good at nothing at all. that mouth That's very true. May she rest in pictures. I fucking love, we could tell we all love her. And it's not just because she's attractive. She is great. Yeah. She's great. this Hi, what is that thing?
00:29:35
Speaker
That's my uncle. Snuffleupagus with a mace. Unsurprisingly, it's it sounds like elephant. No, that's my uncle. He voted for Trump. He wants you to make Tatooine great again. Which one Oh, wait, I know which one. All of them.
00:29:52
Speaker
It's fine. They don't listen. And if they do, well, get over it. Did they even say happy birthday to you? no Oh no, my family doesn't speak to me anymore Let's keep government out of tattooing if we can Sorry Let's not talk about politics during Star Wars yeah Never had anything to do with it Never ever that Frank Stallone back there? I thought so Especially not this episode, right? Was Frank Stallone in red standing next to Boba Fett a minute ago?
00:30:16
Speaker
Franka, Franka Stallona Ho ho ho Franka Stallona Jabba nobada. Little salacious B-Crum.
00:30:30
Speaker
My two favorite things make the stupidest noises. ah no It's not the stupidest pretty good.
00:30:45
Speaker
Like it wasn't good, but was way better than I could do. Yeah. It could probably never do it again. we were gargling at the time. her I like his gossip voice. What have you been up to? oh her livesmore her roper ha ah A Jedi? You're telling tall tales out of school. Luke's not a fucking Jedi.
00:31:11
Speaker
See, people always like said Chewie looks at Han as a dog because they live a lot longer than we do. So everyone's like, oh, it's his sidekick. Chewie's like, no, my pet's flying a plane. Look how cute he is. My doggy's a smuggler. Oh, my little doggy got frozen in carbonite. What's he doing? I always thought there's a meme because it's, what was it, Wilfred? Wilfred?
00:31:32
Speaker
Oh, yeah, yeah. Where it shows that, but then it's Elijah talking to a man dressed as a dog. well They only live to be... Chewie's like, they only live to be about 300 Wookiee years. It's pretty So he did that, the forced choke, because it was supposed to be... There's an undertone movie that got cut out of Luke did go to the dark side.
00:31:52
Speaker
you know And he's flirting with the dark side. But, oh, look, there's Sebulba. Why did I know that? Sebulba's available if you guys need him. Oh, wait, I'm making the movie. I actually heard what you said before, sir. Yeah, i probably for me. About visiting the dark side. But then a book later came out, and he didn't actually force choke those guys. he made He mind tricked them into thinking they were getting force choked. But isn't that what force choking is? Maybe they didn't die, though. Well, you don't have to to kill someone. God. That's exactly what force choking is. you're Your mind making you kill them believe. No. No. Vader does the finger thing and that is crushing of the larynx. oh not just the mind telling you what do. he's physically crushing it
00:32:35
Speaker
It's good look, though. I'm going to say, no offense, Jack, but I always thought people who, like, fetishized the Leia bikini here were just, like, too much. Yeah. Because most of the the ones people do for their cosplay and stuff, it's fine.
00:32:48
Speaker
But they had a low angle shot a second ago, and I was like, I get it. Oh, yeah. No, it's... And I feel bad because she's... Carrie Fisher is a very, like, outspoken, feminist, powerful woman. Struggled with anorexia. Yeah. and she Struggled with body image. She became very much like a, a you know, a pro-feminism type woman later, especially later in life. I think she even was here, but she's doing her job because she needs money. Yeah.
00:33:14
Speaker
But, like, so I hate to... put her up like that but I'm like it's just I can't not well you're human and she worked for that look I'm red blooded damn it and uh there's no underwear in Star Wars something else George Lucas said it looks like he's wearing underwear though that's just his outfit okay no the the story is that she wanted uh oh the squid head or the fox face Have we seen him before? Is she Titty on the right? Yeah. No, on the left.
00:33:44
Speaker
The squid guy. Is that a Corrin? Yeah, because... Okay, it just looks different here. There was somebody else that, like, turns out... That means squid. I don't think it was... There's a bunch in Mandalorian. Yeah, well there's a bunch. We've seen a bunch of them. image just It looked different than the... Obviously, because it's probably the first one.
00:34:01
Speaker
And then ah the design has been refined over the years. and It looked more sinister here. The story of the underwear thing is like she the the costumes like coming off of her. And if anybody was taller than her, they got to peek right on down. There's apparently a nib slip in the unspecialized.
00:34:18
Speaker
Oh, no, it's a Twi'lek that has the nib slip, not her. But she wanted to wear like, you know, undergarments. And George was like, there's no underwear in Star Wars. Oh, wow. What an asshole. but um They did do a thing like where they.
00:34:30
Speaker
I love this guy. base Yeah. Right. So I love the rancor. I want to ride him like a banta. I do like a banta. Nobody can see me. I'm doing the thing, though, guys. Okay, I watched a lot of um Boba for you with you guys.
00:34:48
Speaker
Well, with Husband. They did a pretty decent job with the Rancor. This one is more wet than the other one. What was a different Rancor? This one's older and drools more. And this one's also probably not taken care of.
00:35:02
Speaker
Okay. Well, and we he his master loves him, but... yeah Yeah, but Jabba doesn't give a shit. Oh, his ears are pierced. His reins are on his ears, not on his nose like Boba.
00:35:16
Speaker
Well, because nobody is writing this one. No.
00:35:21
Speaker
There's only one person. I write i will always be grateful that they, so I mentioned not not redoing stuff in CG. I'm so grateful they didn't redo this. yeah Oh my god, right? This is amazing. It's a practical hand, too.
00:35:35
Speaker
That's why it's amazing. Candy agrees. She was scared by the rancor, guys. Sorry. We get it.
00:35:47
Speaker
I know it comes down to production, but I was just wanted to see him do more here. Like, he doesn't even pull the rock towards him with the force. He doesn't use the force to throw it.
00:35:57
Speaker
Like, it's just him being a scrappy little street rat. Yeah. Riff raff. Street rat, I don't stab that.
00:36:09
Speaker
Force pull little closer. ah
00:36:16
Speaker
I'll leave the singing to Jack. Sorry, everybody. No, how dare you? I got the door open. but Oh, shit, there's a gate? Second door? In a prison cell?
00:36:28
Speaker
That's ridiculous. right He's like gnawing on Jabba's tail. Like there's like a callus there. This thing just keeps biting him.
00:36:41
Speaker
This is one of those things that's so crazy, though, because what was this? Less than two minutes? Yeah, why isn't he using his powers? um I can now explain it now now that somebody asked it. He wants everyone to underestimate him.
00:36:55
Speaker
all He wants Jabba because Jabba's whole thing was like he's not a Jedi Knight and then poor Malachy Lee or Malachy Lee Malachy Lee. Yeah, Malachy Lee. I know that somehow poor Malachy Lee. I feel this man's pain. That's his bubble. Look at that. There's some books you read wife that are all about him. I mean, just be one book.
00:37:14
Speaker
Sure. It's just one book, but there's a whole story about him in this rancor and he like traveled around with him and did all kinds of adventures. He probably riding that thing. He's just...
00:37:30
Speaker
Like, I know that they only connect with one person, and that was probably his connection. yeah And so he probably also had that... He's the beast handler. Oh.
00:37:40
Speaker
He does a great job trying to pretend to be blind. I always thought he did a great job, like a really good job, because he just... He acts like he can't see any of this fucking ridiculous shit. Like he can see light and dark, but not... You can't see that shit.
00:38:05
Speaker
Well, don't worry. I'll be back.
00:38:09
Speaker
The what-see? so that but' We don't say that word. I think it even spelled it D-U-N-E, by the way. Well, it's a dune, like a sand dune. i mean, look, they all stole from John Carter anyway.
00:38:25
Speaker
How dare you? Dude, go back and read that John Carter book. Yeah, I have nothing to base my how dare you on other than that really terrible John Carter movie or the other really terrible John Carter movie that I watched that nobody knows about.
00:38:37
Speaker
I think it was called Princess of Mars. Oh. And it starred ah my my former...
00:38:48
Speaker
My former friend and coworker from TV, Antonio Sabato Jr. as the titular John Carter. ah And it was a, I think it was Wild Eye releasing, which is our friend Steve from Bucket of Chum. That's a lot of his movies. What year was that? Oh, 2014 probably. Shut up. That's way more recent than I thought it would have been.
00:39:08
Speaker
Let's ask the internet. like I'm talking through this whole movie anyway. Oh, 2009. All right. No, know, five years. I love these Jabba skiffs, like the pleasure barge and shit with these sails. The classic story that inspired James Cameron's avatar, apparently, according to the poster.
00:39:37
Speaker
I used to live here, you know, die here, you know.
00:39:45
Speaker
Is Mark older than Han? No, but this is after his car accident. Okay. Because he was baby face, if you remember A New Hope. Yeah. He's just ah he's just a little baby.
00:39:59
Speaker
little baby boy. You don't know nothing. yeah didn't he have an accident? It was before Empire. Because we talked about it during Holiday Special. it was it was And I misspoke because I said it was before the Holiday Special.
00:40:10
Speaker
I thought it was. That's why his face was fucked up. No, no, no. I'm sorry. it was That's what I thought it was. I found out after. It was after the Holiday Special that they had someone that does stage makeup.
00:40:22
Speaker
Fuck that beak. Yep. So the Sarlacc Pit, Whitney never had that beak. It was, and it didn't have those. I don't remember it having a Everything that looks fake, the beak, the tentacles were not there. It was just a hole with teeth. It was like sand with teeth. A toothy anus. Yes.
00:40:38
Speaker
Real toothy anus.
00:40:44
Speaker
Those skiffs were always there. That's fine. You can see it's Not really there. Looking at a ah Clatoonian. Clatoonians, yes, thank you. Again, not looking anything like what I'm used to. Right.
00:40:55
Speaker
Looking more sinister because, again, the first draft. when you have thought Clatoonians were a new invention? But they're not. Yeah. Well, no, I knew... I don't think there are any new species that have been introduced, really. I mean, there's in the movies, I'm sure there are, but a lot of the shows are probably just... It's just riffs on things we've seen. Yeah. But they polish them up and make them look better.
00:41:19
Speaker
Because, I mean, I will say, these guys are more sinister looking, but slightly more racist and really not great. Yeah, you can totally tell what was added right there. Yeah, it's not a good job. Those tendrils are horrendous. The clatoonians kind of just look like shrunken heads.
00:41:34
Speaker
Like the... the Classic like shriek me a week why the guy that was right behind that was a clatoon Ian right now we quite got the braid Tuning to the dog boys. Oh, that's right, and then Nickto with a flat Yeah, okay the the weak way is what I'm thinking of and they hear they just kind look like the classic voodoo shrunken head thing I mean they're supposed I think at this point it was supposed to be tattooing natives and it's like yeah Why wouldn't they be raising people fair?
00:42:01
Speaker
This was very fun to film by the way. It's a lot of the state same stuntmen going in. they had so is scream They had so much fun doing this scene. they're like, right, I'll go. I'll jump in now.
00:42:14
Speaker
Cause it's, you're just jumping down a big dune in Yuma into a giant pit that has a soft landing. here we go yuma No, they're probably in Tunisia again. Right?
00:42:25
Speaker
So this is now in the most film... This is most screen time he's had, right? Oh, yeah. oh yeah Is this. He's got a smidge in episode five as well. Yeah, but like this is way more than that. that's what saying. People were like...
00:42:39
Speaker
We love fucking Boba Fett. Because that was just. Well, we love a mystery. That was basically just Darth Vader telling him no disintegrations. as Well, then he's he doesn't talk, but he's there ah during the dinner.
00:42:50
Speaker
oh yeah. That's right. family dinner. This is another thing. Boba Fett. I started saying earlier, and then we got on another thing. That's another thing right here. Boba Fett gets accidentally bopped, and he's gone. So he's had whatever. We've talked about it before. Two minutes of screen time or something. Yeah. Maybe maybe a little more.
00:43:07
Speaker
He's about Darth Maul. The rancor, less than two minutes of screen time, and all classic characters. It's insane how like these things stuck in people's minds. Boba Fett's got a really fucking awesome design, and him being quiet and mysterious. Now, we were all outraged when we saw this. We were like, he's he's dead?
00:43:25
Speaker
He's dead? Because George just didn't realize that people resonated that he resonated with people.
00:43:33
Speaker
I don't know when. Wow, sexy scene right now. but we're going to see a force kick. All I'm saying is if you want to choke me to death with a chain, I'd sign up for it. I'll go second.
00:43:45
Speaker
Yeah, want to eight people operating Jabba. Because I know you had little people in there doing the tails and whatnot. And you had somebody operating arms. There's somebody doing just a face alone.
00:44:01
Speaker
Get the fuck out of here.
00:44:08
Speaker
Yeah, it's unneeded. It's super unneeded. That's perfect right there. You just see all the, like... But that's everybody's problem with it. I googled it, Jack. So technically, there are three puppeteers. Puppeteers. But then there's radio operators for the eyes, and like including pupil direction and eyelid width, so there's different people for that.
00:44:27
Speaker
Mouth operators, greasing crew. ha, ha, ha, ha. What do you do on Star Wars? I'm part of the greasing crew. Oh, my God. So only three puppeteers, but right but then additional people operating all the bits and pieces. yeah So three people in this suit. Yeah, and and that was just a quick overview, so I didn't look too far into it, but I'd say probably at least seven or eight, it sounds like. Uh-huh.
00:44:58
Speaker
Get him with that. Give a zip zap. And your mother, too. And your mother was a funkus.
00:45:13
Speaker
God, the music, man. Yeah, that's what we're paying attention to. Well, the music helps. I didn't realize look for years why I would jerk off to John Williams scores. Now I know. Oh, I always knew.
00:45:31
Speaker
Come on, sister. I mean, she doesn't know that yet. i was like, he knows now, right? Yeah. No. No. Yoda told him there is another, but he doesn't know that it's her. I'm pretty sure he found out. Not yet.
00:45:46
Speaker
But there is a fun theory that- I love this, by the way. Kylo Ren is actually Luke's kid. and not And not Hans.
00:45:57
Speaker
and so that would That would explain his whole Adam Driver face. I'm just kidding. I love Adam Driver. I love Adam Driver too. He's got that face. Look, he blew some shit up for real. Yay! this the last time something blew up for real in Star Wars? ah Now the fan base after that. and don't No, no, no. you're're You're wrong. Every time they put out a trailer, Reddit blows up.
00:46:17
Speaker
Yeah. You want to see Blown Up, dude? Watch a YouTube fucking comment section of a trailer for Star Wars. What?
00:46:31
Speaker
I'm not keeping score. One, two, zero. be-deddlelyooooo
00:46:40
Speaker
Or like Nick Frost would do it. Beep boop, beep boop. Oi, beeps and boops, isn't it?
00:46:50
Speaker
I'll share that video on our social media so listeners can get it. Simon Pegg and Nick Frost doing the scene from episode four. I sent it to you guys earlier today. Oh, yeah. that's that doubt Is that your first time seeing that? No. Okay. It's just my first time in a few years. Okay. as they say How did I know about that before you?
00:47:08
Speaker
It's one of those things you forget about. a lot of that's painting. a lot of those stormtroopers aren't there. That would make sense. Yeah. Especially looking at the guys in the back. So, I mean, I would say if you don't see a move and you can assume it's a painting.
00:47:24
Speaker
mean, now you got to get a little face on them.
00:47:28
Speaker
I fell in love with these Royal Guards in in the movies. They don't do anything ever. But until ah Last Jedi, right?
00:47:41
Speaker
Those are Praetorian guards. That's not the same thing. No. OK, because those are Snokes. These are royal guards. um Typically not force sensitive, just brutal. there's Dude, there's books about how you can how these guys fucking get trained, and it's brutal.
00:47:57
Speaker
Like, you have to, like, kill, you have to be the last person alive in your group to advance kind of thing. Oh, like ah the Nazi stuff you' were telling us about. Yep. Once again, Nazis in the empire. But they're nothing alike. Uh-uh.
00:48:17
Speaker
So this is he is is Ian McDiarmid, right? Oh, yeah. Okay, that's why I was trying to remember if it was still amazing makeup. And his what he's doing with his mouth. Like, he's not just delivering lines. Look at his mouth when he talks.
00:48:31
Speaker
He's putting... just a little bit of zhuzh on everything. Especially when, like, earlier in that conversation, he was definitely being more dramatic. Yes, yes. he's oh It would be ridiculous in a normal drama ah drama movie like dramatic movie. Yeah. It'd be ridiculous, but it adds so much to this. Yeah, it does. And then even going into the prequels, he's having fun, dude.
00:48:55
Speaker
I recently listened to another podcast. They were talking about Revenge of the Sith. And they were like, it's weird that they just thought that people weren't going to know that Palpatine was the emperor. And someone was like, maybe they should have cast a different actor. And I'm like, I could get that if you're trying to keep the surprise. But I think he did a good job.
00:49:12
Speaker
Yeah. Like, if you're trying to make it a real surprise for people. But it was still going to be a surprise for the young kids. Yeah, but I mean, no no I guess. Maybe i'm I'm thinking just of myself. Like, Palpatine was already name my life.
00:49:25
Speaker
Where as soon as like, this is Senator Palpatine, I was like, oh. Yeah, well, apparently that was the first time I heard Palpatine according to all the stuff I read. And I'm like, is it? Because swear God I knew that. The toys always had a. I didn't have any toys. i didn't know anything about. oh come on, sad boy.
00:49:39
Speaker
didn't have any toys. I didn't have any Star Wars toys. I had other toys. I had Power Rangers. I had Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles. I can't masturbate to Princess Leia. have to masturbate to the Pink Ranger. I'm busy. No, it was April.
00:49:50
Speaker
o i didn't I didn't have any Power Rangers toys except for i had Saba, the sword. oh yeah. Well, we all know Saba, the talking tiger sword. Yeah. Yeah. I don't know Saba. Oh, my God. to is This is definitely how Derek would go with all the fucking questions. Dude, I'm saying, like, that that's somebody posted once, they're like, i now that I have a kid, I understand it, where Yoda just dies from being questioned to death.
00:50:13
Speaker
Just like, fuck it, dude, I guess I'll just stop existing. ah Shut the fuck up.
00:50:22
Speaker
I love this switch, too. No more training, you already know everything you need to know. He's like, cool, I am a Jedi. No.
00:50:30
Speaker
Well, I wouldn't say that. Oh, oh, oh. Even though I said your training's done, you think you're a Jedi? no no, no. I trained you to be a seagull. Kiss my wrinkly old bald head.
00:50:43
Speaker
he thought I was going to something else, huh? can't be a Jedi yet. You have to confront your ultimate enemy first. So he wants him to know who his dad is? He knows who his dad is at the end of episode five. Yeah, because that was episode five because Luke has a robot hand right now.
00:50:57
Speaker
Okay, right. here's the... underlying part this of this movie that people didn't understand until much later, George Lucas included. The Jedi want him and ah ah Yoda and Obi-Wan being the hems, want Luke to kill Vader. like that That's what you have to do. You have to kill Vader, and then you have to kill the Emperor.
00:51:17
Speaker
And Luke's big thing is like, no, I love my dad. i can feel love him. They're like, Jedis don't love. He ends up being right. Luke ends up being right because his love is what makes the end of this movie possible. and i thought I'm trying to like save spoilers for people. But that's he's 100% right in that. So George didn't do that on purpose. Somebody like Dave Filoni made sense of that much later where they're like, no, no, his family, his familial connection is correct. The Jedi turning yourself off from love is not... Separating yourself from attachment and love are two different things. Yes.
00:51:52
Speaker
Being ready to say goodbye to your, let's say okay, let's say you're a Jedi. You're allowed to love Derek. You just have to understand when he dies that it's the will of the force and you got to let it go and not try and like, well, let me find a cure for cancer. Let me use my force to take his sickness out. No, you just have to be okay with him dying. That's the comfortable medium.
00:52:11
Speaker
Okay. But the Jedi got way too fucking dogmatic and were like, turn yourself off from love and emotion. Cause that always makes good for leaders. Yeah.
00:52:23
Speaker
It's really interesting doing the some of the... like I've been doing High Republic books, and it's like... Because they're struggling with it back then, too, because it's like... That's like, what, 150, 200 years, give or take? about I think it's about 200 years before all this. And it's like, there are people who are like... There's people... There's Jedis who are banging. Yeah. And one of them's like, oh, I'm really worried about her. I need to go save her. And then she's like...
00:52:47
Speaker
We had our fun, dude, but that's that's not what this is about. Yeah. So it's it's that whole thing. There's nothing that said Jedi couldn't fuck, by the way. No. They have priests. Fucking leads to attachment. Attachment leads to the dark side.
00:53:01
Speaker
Fucking leads to anal. Anal leads to attachment.
00:53:07
Speaker
The last of the Jedi you will be, you say? i mean... Kanan Jarrus never finished his training, which means when he trained Ezra, he's not a Jedi. Ahsoka stepped out of it. Well, but there are people who are still alive at this point that we found out. He's like 100, But...
00:53:26
Speaker
No, I think Yoda might not know that. He's cut himself off so that he couldn't be found. Right? True. So he doesn't know who's out there. but not... Okay. You won't know this because you didn't watch Rebels. He's able to project himself into Jedi temples. I think at least he does at one point for Kanan Jarrus and Ezra Bridger.
00:53:45
Speaker
I think they say, are you doing this? He's like, I don't know. But they're not Jedi. So he's like, well, I know you guys are alive, but you're not a full Jedi. It's just so everyone's like, well, how can we keep getting Jedi? Either your answer is right, or he's just like, the Jedi are not going to exist anymore.
00:54:11
Speaker
We were talking. Was this where he just told him there's another? I thought that was before. Because he just looks shocked. Yeah, I think it's right here that he told me. Oh, okay. I thought it was in the Empire when he goes to leave. He's like, there is another. Or no, he's talking to... It's in this because he's talking to Obi's ghost. So it's in the last one when he's talking to Obi's You know what there's another of? That's what it is. so ah christa Dude, when I listened to that episode, I was like, what fuck?
00:54:43
Speaker
What a great place for him. Because all the ads were placed so well. He's reaching for the lightsaber and it's a fucking Cerveza Cristal. Isn't there one at the end of this with the emperor when he's like, you can be with You just have to take this. And they cut in and it's like, Cerveza Cristal. And it's like, this is not the time for one. I would have done right there where there's another one. Cerveza Cristal.
00:55:05
Speaker
Oh, Alec Guinness. I hate that you hated this.
00:55:10
Speaker
He looks like Frasier's dad. Oh, yeah, it does. he must have but He should have been better friends with... ah Cushing? Peter Cushing. Because Peter Cushing was the one that was like, yeah, whatever, man, fuck it, it's fine. yeah again this Why does he sound like Ewan?
00:55:24
Speaker
Well, Ewan sounds like him. yeah He was doing it on purpose. Ewan studied... Youn's amazing. Studied all 14 minutes of Star Wars that fucking Alec Guinness is Another one, barely in these movies, iconic character. But he's got a much, much larger role. They him iconic.
00:55:41
Speaker
Well, yeah, he is very important, but he's just like, he's literally barely, I mean, it's more than 14 minutes. It's the first half of the first movie, or the first third of the first movie, at least. The big thing, Whitney, is he, Alec Guinness, the actor, hated these movies because he thought they were nonsensical gobbledygook, and he's a- it's just a paycheck for him? He's a stage actor. Oh, yeah, you can hear that. I think that's what brings it, though.
00:56:02
Speaker
Instead of somebody like, yeah, there's another one, yada, yada. This like this is when science fiction was considered like the lowest slop. I think if he saw it now. Science fiction was their equivalent of a Fast and Furious movie right at the time. I think if he saw it now in a different lens, he would understand what he Are you saying there's people that worship Fast and Furious? Yeah, everybody that goes and gives money to them.
00:56:24
Speaker
What? yeah not Not everybody. My parents go to just every movie that's out. so Those movies make bank. Not the last one. most of those Nine of those movies made bank.
00:56:36
Speaker
I think nine was low, and then ten was the lowest it's been since like the original, which was good, which made money, but not it wasn't a spectacle compared to these days. Oh, here it is.
00:56:50
Speaker
he said there's a Yoda said there's another one. He's like, yeah, yeah. Your sister. Your sister. They split you up to protect you, but they didn't change your name. They kept you on Tatooine as a Skywalker. Surprised your father didn't come back looking for you. We're actually lucky about that. i wish Alec Guinness would have come around that tree and been like, hello right now he blatantly says your sister.
00:57:13
Speaker
He guessed it, but he also put on pretty thick. Oh, man. Leia's my sister. You guessed well. You know I put my tongue in her mouth. Yeah, i was watching that actually. It was kind of weird. I didn't like it. It was kind of hot. I was talking to Qui-Gon back there. Qui-Gon, so you don't know Qui-Gon. I think you guys might have invented a new category on Pornhub. I really liked it when she was on Endor and she got stuck in that tree. And you walked up behind and you said, hello there.
00:57:42
Speaker
I think I'm going to take that. I'm going to take it without asking. It's a trap. Anytime I see him. Oh, yeah. I just get hungry because I'm like, ooh, calamari. o Mon calamari. God, Lando fucking rules.
00:57:56
Speaker
Again, barely in any of these movies. Right? He's got a big role in five, though. yeah but he's in more than that He's in more than the Boba Fett and who else did you mention that's barely? Rancor. He's in it more than that.
00:58:09
Speaker
He's got speaking lines. Yeah.
00:58:15
Speaker
Mon Mothma? They did do a great job with that, by the way. I mean, Genevieve O'Reilly is. Yeah, wife. Genevieve O'Reilly from Andor. Yeah. That's this character. Right. That's what i'm saying. They did a wonderful job with that. Oh, okay. Yeah. I had that whole conversation in my head. Again, gummy. And now we're in. She is captivating. not This one's great. Don't get me wrong.
00:58:40
Speaker
Again, didn't have anything fleshed out. She was going to be like, in my opinion, big... Yet another character, they do something grandly. Many Bothans died to bring us this information, just so you know. Many Bothans. Like small ones? Like little Bothans?
00:58:54
Speaker
Huh. But no, I think they were fucking around with having her be some like angelic royal figure. And you can kind of tell the way she's dressed. It was going to be like a holy priestess kind of thing. Okay. But then it just got dropped. like no No, that's just the attire from Shandrilla. Shandrilla, yeah. I was but i like, Coruscant? No. She spent time there.
00:59:18
Speaker
ooh they're almost done with it. Oh, I'm afraid it might actually be quite operational. The way he says You're about to hear some of the best dialogue ever from that motherfucker.
00:59:36
Speaker
When the Mon Calamari joined the rebellion was a big fucking deal because they had big capital ships. It wasn't just these rebel snub fighters. Snub fighters were great. Don't get me wrong. They could zip in little couple of pop shots and zip out. And the TIE fighters not having personal hyperdrive couldn't chase them.
00:59:55
Speaker
Easy peasy. But you need capital ships. Who's the Mario face guy? Also Officer Dangle. ah Alien? What's it? The Solsten? Yeah, the Solsten. Nin, uh, Nien Nub is his name. Oh, Mario Face. I was like, what are you talking about? Yeah, Nien Nub. It's, uh, uh, Lando's pilot, right? yeah
01:00:20
Speaker
I was gonna do the impersonation of him, but I think it's very Asian. I just think it's because of his cheeks. and Well, we'll we'll hear hear it when we get there.
01:00:34
Speaker
What is it? don't I was going to kiss you because I'm used to that. But then I thought, ew. ah We're not in Alabama anymore. It's legal it's illegal now. This is a rebellion. Nothing's illegal.
01:00:48
Speaker
Oh, don't worry. It's okay to kiss it. You see that how that Lambda class shuttle has the stars and bars painted on it there? ah That A-wing's got a Confederate flag on the top.
01:01:04
Speaker
Are you talking about Leia? Oh, never mind. Take her. Oh, I plan to. As soon as you're out of here, old boy, I'm going to slip into her loading dock.
01:01:15
Speaker
You know what I mean? Everyone knows. No, but do you get it? I'm going to have sex with her. Ew! I'm going to have her call me her brother.
01:01:27
Speaker
Call me Luke. I thought we already crossed that he got her from him. ah Yes.
01:01:38
Speaker
Vaguely. Because he's acting like, no, he's just like, I know what she means to you. But it Han's ship. So that's why he's like, I know he want to want you to take her. Yeah. But he's i get it because they did talk about that in episode five.
01:01:53
Speaker
Yeah, but he's like briefly. Right now, because back then Lando was still like, man, fuck you, Luke. Now he's like, or fuck you, Han. Sorry. we're One of these fucking floppy haired dudes. And he's like, now he's like, oh, but it's your ship. We're friends. I respect you more. so He was also out for himself. And he's like, look, I can just fucking stay here on Bespin. Your rebellion, your empire, have at it. I don't fucking care. Then the empire came was like, hey, Cloud City, kind of ours now. But didn't he he initially won it from Calrissian, right? Yes. You see that at the end of Solo, a Star Wars story. That's what I Switched that title. That's the only reason I know that. Yeah, we see it in Solo, but they talk about it in Empire also. Yeah. Oh, okay.
01:02:37
Speaker
I'm still keeping my fingers crossed, by the way, for that Lando show and or movie. There hasn't been a cancellation. There has been some updates. Did you hear that? Nothing good. Donald Glover had a stroke.
01:02:49
Speaker
No. He just announced it recently. He was doing a concert last year and he like he said he was having issues, whatever. And he ended up going. He finished the show. He went to the doctor and they were like, oh, yeah, you had a stroke, dude.
01:03:01
Speaker
Wow. Holy fuck. Yeah. Look these weird-ass hat club dudes. I feel like those have to be the fucking proto version of ah our Asian friends from the prequels.
01:03:15
Speaker
Oh, the Pneumonians? Yeah. Yeah, it's it's their Sith cultists. Like, they don't have... any force powers but like we love the sith because we worship power just a bunch of fucking sycophants and yes men i know wow there's a it's gotta to be hard to have a cult when you already travel through space right because what are you supposed to entice them with like the the spaceship is coming oh cool yeah every day you'll get even more sex which is to say some which is to say someone's gonna give you a dry hand size difference between the star destroyer and the supremacy I said dry handjob while we were watching Star Wars. could we just acknowledge that? Thank you.
01:03:55
Speaker
I didn't want to. No, but look at that. You got the Star Destroyer. It's a big one. Then you got the Super Star Destroyer, which is just fucking enormous. That's Vader's.
Vader's Antics and Realizations
01:04:12
Speaker
I mean, look at that. That's a fucking city. That's Rhode Island on a ship.
01:04:18
Speaker
Don't get jittery. Just because that one has Vader was here spray painted on it doesn't mean a thing.
01:04:27
Speaker
Okay, just because he's got his butt pressed to that that window and he's got his cape up and he's showing us his butt cheeks doesn't mean anything. None
01:04:40
Speaker
of your fucking business, bitch. I mean... Nothing. Which one is this guy? ah He's the one got a name. Yeah, goddammit. He keeps getting promoted...
01:04:52
Speaker
Oh, so they can totally feel each other. He can feel Luke and Luke can feel him. That's why they're like. Yeah. Yes, absolutely. Okay. Because right now they can feel each other. Never mind all the others.
01:05:06
Speaker
It's the continuity stuff between the prequels and this where it's like, what happened to sensing each other? Nope. They didn't know that it happened. They didn't know that they could do that beforehand. They weren't they weren't aware of each other's presence. Now they are. I mean, I could explain away the earlier one, the episode four, because he's like, he didn't feel that his son was there because he's overwhelmed by feeling Obi-Wan is there. Well, he also didn't know yet son.
01:05:29
Speaker
Yeah, but still like you would be like, well, what's that thing? But now he's like, in that case, he's like, I feel something. Oh. Well, if he doesn't know. So I don't think Vader knows it's his son. He just knows that's something really powerful. Oh, okay.
01:05:43
Speaker
oh okay Oh, he definitely knows now. He knew after four. yeah Empire Strikes Back, they have the whole thing. I'm your father. Come with me. It is a conversation. The Emperor's like, you have til you can't let the son of Anakin Skywalker live.
01:05:57
Speaker
Meaning, if he lives, that part of you lives. And... and
01:06:04
Speaker
You can't be a people. You can't be a people. You're mostly robot.
Creation and Design in Star Wars
01:06:12
Speaker
This ah Redwoods.
01:06:17
Speaker
Redlands. Yeah. look of a Yeah. California. walks come in Which. We're supposed to be Wookiees. OK.
01:06:29
Speaker
But they wanted toys. Budget and toys.
01:06:35
Speaker
Someone came... you saying little people got paid less? It's a lot less cost. Than tall people? It's a lot less cost. Okay, true. I was about to say Ralph McQuarrie was like, I can lower your budget and make you some money on toys, but the Ewoks are part of the reason what Ralph McQuarrie quit, walked away during this movie. Yeah. So...
01:06:56
Speaker
Ralph and Corey, if you didn't know it, he was like just the dopest concept art designer that worked on this show or movie. Oh, I did not know this. Yeah, he did most of the concept art for everything that's iconic. I do like these speed racer things.
01:07:10
Speaker
I want one. I'd kill myself home on one accidentally. Oh, a thousand. What are the face helmets? Scout troopers. scout troopers yeah ah That's the ah in Mando. it Jason Sudeikis and that other comedian were sitting there trying to shoot the tin can or whatever. i want to see the baby.
01:07:31
Speaker
i' be i don't know if it's a alive still. you just want look at it, don't you? George
Directors' Contributions to Star Wars
01:07:36
Speaker
was big on having variants of stormtroopers and probably just to give Ralph McQuarrie something to play with. Because if you remember episode five, he had the snow troopers are a very distinct look. Well, I'm sure what it was was Ralph McQuarrie was like, right, i got ideas for your stormtroopers. Here's 30 ideas.
01:07:52
Speaker
And George Lucas is like, cool, let's fucking use them all, dude. Fuck yeah. That's awesome, though. Who directed Star Wars and or ah Gilroy? Gilroy?
01:08:03
Speaker
I mean, it was they switched people off, but Gilroy was the guy. He was the showrunner. He ended up contacting Lucas just, you know, to kind of get some pointers. And the big thing he did was like, don't bog it down with one stormtrooper. So they put in like the shore troopers and things like that.
01:08:19
Speaker
Oh, it's for Rogue One, not Andor. Sorry. Well, Andor had the shore troopers. Yeah, but it was Rogue One first. Yeah. Sorry.
01:08:27
Speaker
Gareth Edwards directed Rogue One, but Gilroy was still... He's the one who came in and rewrote it and made it good. Yeah. So it must have been Gareth Edwards that asked him.
01:08:41
Speaker
Director of previous episode on Bad Movies, Worst People, Godzilla 2014. Woo! Ooh, coppers.
01:08:51
Speaker
They're right behind me, aren't they? Yeah. And i can still I can still just appreciate this like combination of like rear projection and blue screen so much more than CG. Well, they they took a camera through. like This is real footage. Obviously, what you're talking about is real.
01:09:06
Speaker
It's an effect. But like they took a camera through these woods. Yeah. And someone's running this. And they just sped it Somebody had seen the Evil Dead. Yeah. Put on a piece wood. They were like, Sam Raimi's got a fucking idea. Because this is just Sam Raimi sped up.
01:09:22
Speaker
Not this, but like the the first person shots. u hu And it's great. Sam Raimi shit just sped up to full speed.
Character Pronunciations and Trivia
01:09:32
Speaker
would not be able to look behind you when you're driving like this. No, you definitely cannot.
01:09:39
Speaker
i mean, they make it make it look like they're going a thousand miles an hour.
01:09:47
Speaker
At least 80. love his little like... Noisy cricket. Yeah, it was like snub-nosed 38 splaster. Because they're scout troopers. I mean, maybe there's a a sniper rifle on the... That's what happens. Don't at that.
01:09:58
Speaker
Fuck around and find out. ah Real blosions. Maybe he's got a sniper on that truck ah speeder, but they're not supposed to be scrapping like this. Yeah.
01:10:10
Speaker
Well, that's why they saw them and they didn't attack them. They were like, whoop, get out of here. Apparently our radios only work. They jammed it. Two miles. Oh, you hear, you hear. Yeah, yeah, yeah. You're right. You hear somebody say probably Han Han.
01:10:24
Speaker
Han. Hello, Han, you old scoundrel.
01:10:29
Speaker
It's Han. All right, Han. Whatever you say, Han. That's why when somebody fucks up and says Han solo, I'm like, I'll let it fly. Dude, that's that's still one of my favorite parts of Solo. He's just like, because he tells it. He's like, it's hot. He's like, all right, Han. Uh-huh, uh-huh, uh-huh. heard you.
01:10:47
Speaker
I just don't care. First time we've seen a lightsaber against something that's not a lightsaber is in this movie. More fun exposes. Well, kind of. in this movie. In this movie. i was going to say.
01:10:59
Speaker
No, in it's in this movie. He never, because he doesn't use a lightsaber to fight another. i think he might have blocked a blaster. Maybe. Wait, he he takes out all those scoundrels on Jabba's barge.
01:11:10
Speaker
But he's not fighting another weapon with a lightsaber is what I mean. He's cutting people down. Yeah. ah Han uses one in episode five on a Tauntaun. Four little defenseless Tauntauns. But I think what I had read was it was the first time it was used against another weapon.
01:11:26
Speaker
Gotcha. Like to actually fight something, not just to kill things. Not to just slaughter. Destruction. ah
01:11:42
Speaker
Can you turn the volume down on him? Hey, listeners. Hope you're a good time. I hope you're having an okay time.
01:11:51
Speaker
Am I allowed to have a pee break? Yeah, you just get to get up and go do it. You go pee. I can't pause the movie. Oh, fantastic. No, you have to soil yourself. It's for the podcast.
01:12:03

It's for the sake of art. But you got a
Ewoks' Strength and Strategic Impact
01:12:07
Speaker
little wicket right here. can't, No, he's trapped by He's very much trapped. Oh, I can figure it out. I'll somersault out of here like you wouldn't believe. Meltdown. Like Dave from Good Beers, Bad Movies. Bad Movie Night.
01:12:21
Speaker
I thought about sneaking out, but I would scare Candy. So this was supposed to be Kenny Baker in the suit. so that's Warwick? Yeah. Because it's Wicket, right? Yes. he was It was supposed to be Kenny Baker, the guy that operates R2-D2 from the inside, but he got really sick that day, and they were just like, all right, well, who else?
01:12:41
Speaker
And a very young Wark Davis stepped up. I mean, he's a bab in this.
01:12:53
Speaker
um I did have written down, so Kenny Baker does play one of these guys. Oh, i know ah po blue voice yeah,
01:13:01

01:14:04
Speaker
You got to remember that that the Ewoks have to be buff as F under that fur. right Wait till we see their village and how high up it is and all these trees they put, ah like the giant logs they put up in these traps.
01:14:18
Speaker
You couldn't hoist those without being just a rocked up little teddy bear. Terrifying if you think about it. They're just cute, but they would rip your arms off like a little Wookiee.
01:14:30
Speaker
I'm just imagining like Popeye, but really short. oh God. Yeah.
Luke's Emotional Struggles
01:14:49
Speaker
The fuck is that? The hell? Just hit me in the balls really softly. Nice. Bada boom. And the big thing is, like, the Empire probably knew these Ewoks were here.
01:15:01
Speaker
And that's, like, the big thing is the Emperor, like, they're insignificant. Something this minimal and meaningless in the Force can't make a difference. Yeah. Especially to my master plan. I got a Death Star.
01:15:14
Speaker
My second one. They pissed me off. I'll just blow up their moon. ah Sir, that's where our seat shield generator is? I don't. It actually is a deleted scene where he orders a orbital strike of that.
01:15:28
Speaker
I'm not worried about shields. What could they possibly do? sir do you remember the two movies ago? No. Look at them. They're great. It'd be boring to stand there all day watch this emperor stare out into space. That's very British.
01:15:46
Speaker
Dude, my balls itch. Don't move. I know, but they itch really, really bad. That's like the guys with the hats. Yeah. Yeah.
01:16:00
Speaker
To find the money, I'd have this chair.
01:16:05
Speaker
He knows. He definitely would. He knows. He moved that with his foot, by the way. We could sync it up. Or we could like set it up so you have a microphone that hangs down from the overhang thing. Fuck yeah. you're just like, hello. It's my podcast chair.
01:16:18
Speaker
Yeah, so that chair doesn't spin on its own. He has a foot under his cloak and he's moving it. It was something wanted on the day and he's like, I got it.
01:16:32
Speaker
He will come to me. you
01:16:44
Speaker
Will it? It'll be someone's undoing. It's going to be undone. And it was in that moment. See, now the Emperor heard him say, as you wish.
01:16:58
Speaker
i can I can skip all the brother-sister kissing part if you want. I know you find it gross. No, keep doing it. I like it. More. I'm Fred Savage.
01:17:12
Speaker
See the movie Princess Bride to get anything. which ah Yeah, if you don't know at this point. It's like you don't even want to watch it. Well, it's like we're talking, and then I remember that I'm talking into a microphone.
01:17:27
Speaker
Oh, shit. It's right there. It's right in front of me, isn't its i'm right behind it?
01:17:38
Speaker
What do you mean what? Somebody hung this goat salami in a tree for me.
01:17:44
Speaker
can smell it. Look at how happy Chudy is. Dude, smell cured meats.
01:17:49
Speaker
That's not cured. It's indoor. Dry aged beef. It's indoor aged.
01:18:00
Speaker
It's the best dead animal.
01:18:05
Speaker
Oh, good. Got you like a cartoon. Why do these nets look like they're made out of mud? It rains a lot in Endor.
01:18:15
Speaker
They're just all vines.
01:18:23
Speaker
It's the the opening scene of Thor Ragnarok. Trying to reach across and the whole thing's just spinning. Wait, come back around. Come back around.
01:18:37
Speaker
Why does he need his lightsaber? Can't he just force
Ewoks' Cultural Allegories
01:18:40
Speaker
rip those things apart? dude I love that Ewok, by the way. That one? Yeah. the warthog kind of Beautiful. the The leader guy? Yeah. Just his, like, his... It's not really headdress. His whole thing with the teeth and all that stuff on it. It's like he's the not the the chief, maybe? If he's not the chieftain, he's definitely the medicine the fucking warrior.
01:19:02
Speaker
Yeah, he's like the head warrior, probably. I think there's a different one that's the chieftain that we see in the village. Luca, Luca, Luca.
01:19:13
Speaker
Oh, no, since we're watching the specialized does that mean we aren't going to get the the Toto song? Oh, no. That would be the biggest travesty of this night.
01:19:26
Speaker
Well, then I'll talk about it now. Because these are Ewoks.
01:19:31
Speaker
So John Williams' son. God, I can't think of his name right now. Jason. i this but Either way, John Williams' son is the lead singer of the band Toto.
01:19:42
Speaker
Oh, that's right. And he helped to write the Ewoks song from the end of the actual movie. Joseph. Joseph Williams. old Joey Dubs.
01:19:54
Speaker
Oh, we got a Johnny and a Joey. Johnny and a Joey. Look at that, Joey. He wrote the lyrics for the original song, which is like the yub nub. Yeah. Yub nub. It's probably going to be here. We're going get that stupid version where it shows Coruscant and shit. We're going get the Naboo version, too, i think.
01:20:12
Speaker
I believe they added Naboo in since. Oh, yeah. We got... I know the course. we We'll see what which version we ended up watching because like I said, we're watching it on the internet, guys. Hopefully we're watching the same one you are.
01:20:35
Speaker
You are. do I love this. them Just like thinking he's a god in this whole thing. It's so funny. I mean, a more a little bit more priive primitive culture. You've never seen a gold person.
01:20:46
Speaker
Yeah. Speaks six million languages. Look at him. They think he's a fucking Oscar. Luke Skywalker just laughing at him is the funniest thing. cause Luke is like the stoic Jedi at this point. Yeah, he's like the force has a plan. And him just being like, oh, they think that I'm a god. And Luke's like, yeah, okay. Gods don't have off switches on their neck.
01:21:10
Speaker
Gods ah didn't almost get left in a canyon by me because they annoyed me.
01:21:16
Speaker
Gods don't get slimed up by Jabba. Look at that. i love I would love that. Just zip lines from tree tree. That would be so much more terrifying if it was a Wookiee, just so you know. Oh, all of us would be. but swinging just Especially the swinging between the two like tree houses. could just be Instead of a little tiny bear monkey man, it would be a gigantic Sasquatch. That's also why it's more expensive. the craft service is going to go through the roof when they have of 6'7", 250-pound Wookiees on set.
01:21:43
Speaker
Like all these big Swedish dudes. I mean. guess I want to think of it because the new main Wookiee guy is a Swedish guy, right? And Peter Mayhew was like, God, was he seven foot tall?
01:21:55
Speaker
Uh, yeah, that sounds right. He's a big boy. He was. Read some pictures, Peter Mayhew. A new one. Yunus Sotomo. That thing was not that cute.
01:22:05
Speaker
You didn't think that was cute? I mean, it was, but it was terrifying also. Just because it wants to eat you. Here's the chieftain. He's got the bird hat. Yeah, the other one had a warthog.
01:22:16
Speaker
What we're assuming is a warthog, Whitney. well Whatever the Star Wars version that foot three. Seven three on Mayhew. Yeah.
01:22:29
Speaker
Luka, Luka, Luka.
01:22:33
Speaker
Bring out the hot chick. Oh, the new guy, Yunus Suertimo, whatever it is. ah Only Ugh, get a life, ah shorty.
01:22:47
Speaker
Apparently he played basketball at Penn State. No. Oh, good. That's the most basketball Derek and I've ever talked. i didn't even, I checked out. I was so way into Layla. We talked about the last dance before. Yeah, it's true. And we watched that um bedazzled.
01:23:07
Speaker
It's got a scene. Hi-ho, hi-ho. They're watching Snow White. I'm gonna cook your bro.
01:23:33
Speaker
Boom. If you don't untie him, he's going to set a bomb off in this tree. Quick, kill him faster. Apparently, have bomb's on him. Light him on fire. I know we've talked about it before, and I'm sure something everybody heard hundred times. love him trying to everything out.
01:23:49
Speaker
But where'd they get that dress for Leia? They ate a person. Yep.
01:23:57
Speaker
100% eating people. mean, we see it right here. They're about to eat them. Yep.
01:24:05
Speaker
Also, that baby Ewok, fucking adorable. Yeah, I agree. Whitney was terrified.
01:24:12
Speaker
Oh, there's... i like that one, too. I had a hamster that kind of looked like that. His name was Teddy.
01:24:20
Speaker
Teddy Bear? Yep. Teddy Bear-a? Because he was a little hamster. i know Let's pick this guy up. Sorry, don't ah don't kill us. I know a lot of composers have done it over the years, but just weaving in the various themes. As soon as he starts making 3PO float, they have the Luke theme.
01:24:40
Speaker
No, it's, what's it called? Spark of Hope or something like that? i Yeah, I don't know the names of all of them, but it it is, it's Luke's, like, it's the when he's looking at the suns the first movie, all that. It's Luke's theme, basically. It has the word hope in the title, because it should.
01:24:57
Speaker
Because he's the titular new hope. Well, John Williams wasn't as lazy as most of these guys who are just like, this is so-and-so's theme. I just don't know the names of all Right.
01:25:09
Speaker
Oh, let me in. I'm little. I can't even watch back here. Oh, hamburgers. Vader's theme isn't called Vader's theme. It's called the Imperial March. Much cooler than Vader's theme. Yep. But we just we know it as Vader's theme because that's when it comes on.
01:25:22
Speaker
What are these extra noises? It's him saying, it's C-3PO telling a story. Yeah, C-3PO being like, you know those books where you flip the pages and push the buttons? and press the buttons. Yeah.
01:25:38
Speaker
Luke's watching. He's like, my God, this is awesome. I did that? Man, this story rules. The special effects that C-3PO. Because this is a long time ago, so it's before special effects.
01:26:00
Speaker
He's like, I don't like this part of the story. We're
01:26:06
Speaker
going have our own little furry kid one day and he's going to go on to kill a bunch of people.
01:26:20
Speaker
I mean, it's a lot of work. You know, i like you can, you can hate the Ewoks. I'm not going to fault you for ever hating the Ewoks. It's a lot of work, dude. Yeah. I was a young one when I watched this, so I loved Ewoks. I was young. it just felt so out of place.
01:26:40
Speaker
But I think I hate him less as an adult now because I'm just so used to it. I'm like, I get it. Whatever. This part of the story is not for me. I think I just never questioned it. i didn't I don't think I thought like, oh, these cute little guys are adorable because I'm a young kid. because I mean, I saw this.
01:26:54
Speaker
I was probably four or five years old. The first time i remember seeing it. You know what i mean? like Yeah. Yeah. So but and so i don't think I was. I was never like, oh, those little cute guys. But I also was never like, this seems so out of place. I was just like, yeah, whatever. It's Star Wars, man.
01:27:08
Speaker
I think I spoke about it before. I have no memory of never seeing this. Like it's just been in my life. I don't really remember not seeing it. I vaguely remember when I was in like kindergarten age and I went to a like Christian like preschool, kindergarten, elementary school thing.
01:27:29
Speaker
And I remember they they used to show us movies all the time. And this was these were movies that they played. It wasn't Catholic. It was Christian. So they were OK with some of the other stuff. yeah He's a messiah. He could walk on water if he focused on it.
01:27:43
Speaker
And i' why I remember watching it and we had the VHSs at my house, like I said, but we the ones we had are the 1997 edition. So we didn't have those VHS tapes until I was 12. Right. So I definitely saw it at school multiple times. Oh, you can totally see the scars around his lips and shit. Oh, yeah.
01:28:02
Speaker
But this wasn't being played on TV. Well, also, he's a little hardened now. He's not this little innocent boy from Tatooine. It's especially hard now that he knows that he kissed his sister.
01:28:15
Speaker
Oh, he's real hard.
01:28:19
Speaker
It just won't go down. and don't want to be weird, guys, but if Carrie Fisher was my sister, I might kiss her. Weird. Weird. ah I don't know how feel about that. Bad. Feel bad. You should feel bad. Did
Expanded Universe and Production Design
01:28:34
Speaker
you know she was your sister? Oh, yeah. Well, no, you didn't know the first time.
01:28:37
Speaker
but It implies there's a second. Exactly. It implies he's going to do it again. well we've already kissed.
01:28:46
Speaker
It's already weird. So make it weirder. God already wants us dead, so might as well just keep doing it. An abomination upon Christ himself.
01:28:58
Speaker
I'm kidding. not listening father of Mortis does not smile upon you.
01:29:08
Speaker
Okay. So he does say it then. In another script, the other one they're talking about was not her.
01:29:18
Speaker
It was a third. I don't know if it was a Skywalker or just another girl like that was on the outer rim, like even the unknown regions, like she got split the fuck up. They dropped that and made it her. But at one point it was going to be just another Jedi trained girl. Okay. Okay.
01:29:38
Speaker
and just So not sisters? Not siblings? I mean, it was they were going be siblings, but there was going to be a third character. Okay. they didn't They didn't go with that.
01:30:02
Speaker
Yeah, there was definitely... So Mara Jade was Luke's wife. Yes, she is the Emperor's Hand. Just a mostly invisible Sith assassin. i didn't know Luke had a wife. This is in the books. EU stuff that's been deleted. yeah Oh.
01:30:20
Speaker
So no. he in is In this, he has not.
01:30:34
Speaker
I'd get so dead just drinking. look at Look at all those railings at knee height. There's no literal knee height. I would be dead. want to be that drunk, dude. I just don't walk well.
01:30:50
Speaker
Didn't look like nothing. I was trying to find it real quick. I was Googling. I know I had heard about it before. There was another character... That ended up being We might have talked about it i just don't remember anymore I love that there's really smoke going around That he's like flicking fog around Because somebody got a little fucking hammered And it was just on the yeah fog machine You want fog? you a fog ah Oh it's not a fog machine This 1983 or 1982 It's cigarettes and weed Brushing their teeth with cocaine It's not weed It's non-union People are on this set smoking weed
01:31:48
Speaker
I mean, i always why does the dark side always have the awesome fucking... They have better outfits, too. is it the Is it to be more enticing? Evil is cooler. Evil's cool.
01:31:59
Speaker
Evil's cool, guys. Evil is always cooler looking. I mean, you're married to a guy who almost exclusively wears black. It's an AT-AT, right? AT-AT? Yes, AT-AT. Yes, the big guys. I've i've i've made peace with it. AT-AT, sure.
01:32:16
Speaker
I mean, I don't even like AT-AT. just going to start calling the chicken guys AT-ATs and people are going to get mad at me. AT-AT. There's no A in it. AT-AT.
01:32:26
Speaker
I'm just saying, you can call whatever you want. Kenner called it an AT-AT. They can it ST. then be T-T. Got him. I missed it.
01:32:37
Speaker
Good work, Commander. In our universe, Humvee is an acronym.
01:32:46
Speaker
Stands for Humongous... Uvula. Uvula Man Vehicle Extra. exciting, Eric.
01:32:58
Speaker
Humongous Uvula Man. Very exciting, Eric.
01:33:05
Speaker
Fantastic. Dude, don't point that lightsaber at me like that. Your thumb is dangerously close to the switch and you are just pointing it right at my face. That thing can go off any minute now. Well, if you're strong enough in the force, you can stop it from going through your neck.
01:33:16
Speaker
I don't think so. i don't think so. No? I guess you could do a force push. Yeah. You know what? Adam Driver stopped a fucking laser bolt, so. Just like eat Neo. You can do whatever you want.
01:33:29
Speaker
Oh. His is green also? No. Ooh, our subtitles are British. great ah Blue, was it was always supposed to be just red and blue. Well, that's green. I know.
01:33:44
Speaker
he lost He lost the blue lightsaber at the end of episode five. He was going to have a blue one, but the green didn't show up on like the sands of Tatooine. The blue didn't show Sorry, the blue didn't show up in like the blue sky, and like so they made a green one.
01:33:57
Speaker
Oh. So then George is like, all right, blue and green is for good guys. Red is bad. Up until Phantom Menace when Samuel Jackson was like- Purple. Can I get a purple one? Because he asked him, he's like, can i he's like what what's what's the color? He's like, well, good guys have blue, green. Bad guys have red. He's like, can I- I can't get a purple one? He's like, maybe you get a purple one. you watched If you watch that, you see George Lucas go, my God, purple.
01:34:21
Speaker
Oh my God, that's a great idea. So there was no like yellow and orange and stuff, whatever, before before the yeah Mace was the first that was not those three. yeah I'm sure we've talked about this, but it's...
01:34:34
Speaker
Because we're going through this in order, but in order means we're jumping back and forth by decades. I sometimes get mixed up about what's canon. and Oh, I still struggle with canon and non-canon. And what happened in what order. Uh-huh.
01:34:50
Speaker
So he's like, so yeah,
Battle Strategies and Iconic Moments
01:34:51
Speaker
Anakin's dead, dead. Yeah, I mean, he's... I believe him. He doesn't believe that. I think he still thinks he feels good at him, but he's trying to use that to pull it out of him. He's like, so my father really is dead. So I'll just go to the emperor and die then. So then Anakin inside there is like, oh man no I'm here I'll just I'll just go I'll just go up to the emperor and die my dad doesn't even love me my dad doesn't love me I guess I'll die welcome to the world you gotta do something good like start a podcast and shove in his face i mean my dad my dad loves me sorry guys I love that Chewie's disheveled look is just floppy hair now uh-huh that's what i was that's what was saying at the beginning though it was like why does Chewie look so weird
01:35:34
Speaker
He looks different. He had a blowout. Yeah, but when he goes all cleaned up and before they got captured again, his hair was like slicked back again and perfectly placed. It's like when you give your dog a haircut, right?
01:35:50
Speaker
Yep, yep, nope. um Jack's peeing. I got to fill in the dead air. So in 1973...
01:36:04
Speaker
I love these ships and Jack's not here to tell us tell me what they are. But with the the gun handle kind of shape on the bottom. Okay. The long, you'll see it. It's on the front end of these long ships. are like It's kind of in the center.
01:36:18
Speaker
Yeah, look at him. He's got like three faces. We'll hear him talking here in a minute. You'll hear why Jack said, i don't think I can do his voice. It's little racist. Yeah.
01:36:40
Speaker
We'll get those shields down in time or we're not going to last long. Either way, it'll be. But he is the one that goes, it's a drop. Right. Admiral Ackbar. Yes. Yeah. never no
01:37:03
Speaker
I did love the Ewoks. I think they're fine. I just don't understand. Like, i understand that like they're there to sell toys, but I also don't understand people's problem with that. Yeah, I don't. They're also not terrible for this setup. Like it's. and And George Lucas's thing, and Jack will confirm this when he gets back. It's like, it's very much.
01:37:22
Speaker
It's a allegory for ah Vietnam. These are the little, the natives who have less technology, less weaponry, less training, yet they still take down the empire who is definitely not America. Yeah.
01:37:42
Speaker
think I did good. but What ships do you like? ah the The rebel ships that have the so of like the long ones and they have like the tower of stuff coming down underneath it. um I believe that's the Mon Calamari capital ships. Who's working his pedals?
01:37:59
Speaker
don't where where we going Where we're going? We don't need pedals. Well, they don't they don't need the pedals. They have their feet on them, but they push. They have the pedals and stabilizers. You it all right here. at the At the beginning, when she was on one, she pushed her foot down to make it go faster, but it could have been her bracing. Yeah, I think she's just bracing against it. Or she took the air brakes off. They push forward to go.
01:38:20
Speaker
And yes, i I came at the end of this. So this is Kenny Baker, by the way. Paplu. And when it does the spinning part, ah he is, it's Tony Cox. And what they did was they had basically stuck him. They stuck him on the thing and they like strapped him to it and just spun it in place. Because obviously it's green screen there. Or rear projection maybe.
01:38:39
Speaker
um The Ewoks were always supposed to be Viet Cong and Emperor Swords. It was just supposed to be Nixon if you didn't get there. Nixon? Nixon? Yeah. Well, because it's Vietnam, you know, he's like, I this guy right up on the right. The old guy with the beard has sparked a little bit of a controversy, not controversy, but, uh, uh, if you watch the end of rebels, one of the surviving clone troopers looks just like that dresses, just like that and goes on this mission.
01:39:08
Speaker
But the books about this movie have, it has a different name. So Dave, Dave Filoni is like, you can make up what you want about it. Like you choose. Instead of saying, I've made a decision for you and here's what it is. He's like, you believe what you like. to Because he's what's he going to do? Ruin a bunch of old people's favorite books or a bunch of young kids' favorite show? Exactly. yeah He's like, i'm I'm actually not going to ruin anything. that Imperial theme? You do sound a lot like him. Thank you. I try. It's because that's who I am.
01:39:40
Speaker
right. My turn. Uh-oh. It's going be dead air without Derek here. No, there won't be. it's just going to be gobbledygook.
01:39:50
Speaker
gibberish Oh, so he has his foot down twisting that? I think I remember you saying that. When I peed. How boring would it be to have this guy in your life?
01:40:04
Speaker
um Is this barbecue tongs? I was expecting them. You can't buy this time birthday present. Right? Uh-oh. Bitches leave. This fucking red guy just saunter out. He don't get to do anything. Right?
01:40:19
Speaker
They did a fantastic job on his makeup. Yes, especially if you go back for episode five when he's not actually in it. Yeah. It's a projector. They're using like eyes of a baboon, the non-specialized edition. It's a composite, a bunch of weird looking shit. So they had to make him look a little weird. But like, look look at those mannerisms, dude.
01:40:40
Speaker
The hands crinkled at the right position. The arms not fully extended. It's fantastic. He is having a great time with this role. Yeah, he is. And i think it was a wonderful idea to have him reprise it because, yes, the dude had age. Still didn't look that fucking old. Well, what's funny is because he's not that old right here. He's just under a lot of makeup that it worked out. He's the perfect age. yeah And when he puts on that, like, oh, Anakin, like he's just so happy, like different guy.
01:41:07
Speaker
um George Lucas had this all written down, right? It's in my notebook. I put it in my notebook. fuck I i'd laugh like the emperor. What the fuck?
01:41:23
Speaker
ah fuck Those teeth are amazing too. i'm I love the, the M me m U A's, the makeup artists and all of that special. Look more, more of this though. Your, the emperor is like, you got to do shit on your own, dude. That's why you're going to fail. And he's like, no, my friends are going to come through and that's why you're going to fail. It's that it's the ah opposite ideologies.
01:41:54
Speaker
Oh, well but we're going to hear a really cool line about it, so don't worry. is it this movie that I've been quoting? Yeah. Why did I think it was number episode four? Leia says it A New Hope, but just not with the same amount of gusto.
01:42:09
Speaker
Everyone knows Ackbar saying it.
01:42:22
Speaker
when your friends arrive. Quite operational. Such a fucking catty bitch right there. Uh-huh. He'll be quite operational. It's not just enough to know that I just like so i smote your rebellion. He's like, oh, by the way, this is operational.
01:42:41
Speaker
By the way, all this was for naught. You're a fucking bitch.
01:42:48
Speaker
I'm also going to have to destroy your hen way. What's a hen weigh? About two pounds. Got him.
01:43:01
Speaker
Kate Scott. Little Wilhelm. Little Wilhelm.
01:43:23
Speaker
So, yes, I do believe the one you're talking about is the Mon Calmar. It would make sense. the with the Edward Norton? Just a whole bunch of shit but underneath the main hull. What are the vertical ones?
01:43:37
Speaker
Those guys. Those are y way B? okay Yes, and you might wonder why because it's Blade. Oh, okay. Okay.
01:43:48
Speaker
There were supposed to be more of them and in in the, at least in episode four. And I think in this, but they weren't registering on screen as well because of their shape. Makes sense. So like, ah, fuck it. More X-Wings.
01:43:59
Speaker
Like more X-Wings, more A-Wings, Y-Wings, Falcon. The A-Wings the little Jedi looking snubs. Okay, the ones like that look like the ones they were flying in episode yes three.
01:44:16
Speaker
Yes. The beginning of three there. It's a trap!
01:44:23
Speaker
Oh, so it is in this one. She was just saying, and I was like, no, that's in four. No, this one. It in this one. All right. And you're starting to see more TIE variants, by the way. i don't know if you noticed that. Like, they're not all the flat, just TIE fighters. Some of the ones there, like the TIE interceptors.
01:44:40
Speaker
I mean, it would make sense because the Vader's interceptor from episode four was a prototype. Yes. So at this point, they're like, well, it works. He lived. If they were behind the behind the movies, like in the books, if they if they were just focused on the TIE fighter project that Thrawn wanted, they would have been way better off. But the emperor kind of adopted the Tarkin. I just have to say the lighting is beautiful on this. Oh, the very on film noir lighting. Yeah. And then just on part of his hand and the weapon. I love this, though. He's like, oh, I see you noticed your lightsaber here. Your wallet? Yeah.
01:45:18
Speaker
Try it, motherfucker. You've got to be quicker than that. You almost had it. I know you want to grab it, bitch. In anger. In anger. And fear I will strike down upon thee with great vengeance and furious anger.
01:45:33
Speaker
Oh, that's where Sam Jackson got it from. Fuck yeah.
01:45:47
Speaker
Oh, so this is why I thought he danced with the dark side. Because he wouldn't have said your mind if he never danced with it, right? Yes, it's they dropped it, but it was supposed to be that he had been struggling with his power.
01:46:02
Speaker
But they just didn't have time. because this is What are those? STSTs? It's 211. At least this version. 211? Yeah. Yeah, we just don't need it longer than that. 1983, you couldn't make a longer movie longer than 211. No.
01:46:16
Speaker
No, you're you're you're good right there. And I'm fine with it. There's subtext that you could follow, and there's books. like i Give me a reason to read a Star Wars book.
01:46:34
Speaker
Not too much. Not too much. can get taken it down with that, dude. fucking This is going to be on Patreon. Derek whistled too much. It's fine. I was sure I was off-key.
01:46:48
Speaker
It's just off-key enough to not get sued. ah Your Honor, my client is quite a bad singer and a worse whistler. So ah you heard of the you know the movie Blade? Well, he's Whistler's motherfucker.
01:47:04
Speaker
This is where it really... annoys people because I know that it's like cheap armor, yada, yada, but you still have stone arrows taking down these guys. Yeah, but it's going through the soft parts. It doesn't matter. We've seen the actual armor be smashed by fucking... Beskar. That's a Beskar hammer, my friend. It's a hammer.
01:47:26
Speaker
I'm just saying. I'm just saying. We know it's cheap. I don't even mind when they do the traps, like when they're taking down these at-sats. Yeah, I went there. when they're when When they're taking down the AdSats, those traps are cool. Those traps are big.
01:47:42
Speaker
The stone spears and the stone arrows don't work. Get rid of them.
01:47:47
Speaker
Well, the thing is, just because they called it Durasteel doesn't mean it's not just plastic. It's super cheap.
Emperor's Manipulation and Sith Lore
01:47:56
Speaker
Have you ever had a Duralast battery? Not great. Don't the Duralast, though? I might go home and download the DLC for, ah oh what is it, the Force Unleashed? Because you get to go to Endor and punt Ewoks. And when I say punt, you grab them by their head and you force kick them across the screen.
01:48:17
Speaker
ah Maybe i can set up a capture for that.
01:48:24
Speaker
That was a cool effect, also, having the people being thrown. Yeah.
01:48:33
Speaker
But again, you're talking about how these guys have to be super strong, right? So the arrows still wouldn't make a lot of sense. yeah But the the spears and the huck and rocks, if these guys are a little tiny, super buff dudes, like it's like an Arnold Schwarzenegger, but concentrated into a three-foot man. It's Arnold Schwarzenegger's power in Danny Vito's body. Yeah.
01:48:52
Speaker
That's terrifying. That could throw a rock through armor. Yeah. That's a whole David Doliath thing. Also, these guys, like like i said, the Emperor knew they were here. She's like, they're just fucking weaklings. Put the weakest squad we have on Endor.
01:49:05
Speaker
Oh, there you go. And you know what? Give them paper armor like towards the end of the ah Jojo Rabbit. It looks like paper, yes, but it's actually a really light composite.
01:49:20
Speaker
It's fitting, though, because the Empire is nothing but a paper tiger.
01:49:25
Speaker
We look tough. Get to the right angle, and you see it's just a little piece of paper. Yep. There we go. Blow up some trees. There's a little fucking hammerhead Corvette. Oh, no, the hammerhead was the taller front one.
01:49:42
Speaker
That's the ship, though, I think. Because they have, like, the dome kind of shape. we're just not We're not seeing the under part there. Right, right.
01:49:53
Speaker
Look, it's got a ship in its ship. Growing up, i was always just like, these are very impractical, that right there. Yeah, I'm almost positive that's the Mountain Calamari. They have a shield redundancy that they can just tank all the fucking shots. Okay. Even growing up, I was like, these are so impractical, but they just look sweet. Yeah. It's like this big beefy thing with this long thing sticking down and then a very thin neck connecting it to the... But that's the beauty of Wars. That's an impractical design, but because you can write the fact that it has shields like nobody's business, it works now. Yeah.
01:50:26
Speaker
And as a little kid, I was like, that's fucking great. As an adult, I love it too. But a kid, I was like, you could draw anything and just like, uh, the science.
01:50:35
Speaker
The shield. You have failed. Now witness.
01:50:47
Speaker
Battle station. Hit him with the razzle-dazzle. Zhuzh it up for him. Drop that funky beat on them.
01:50:59
Speaker
Rebel again. I mean, these guys who set up the laser, the guys standing next to the beam have the worst job. But the guys that cue up the laser, and put the they do look like DJs that are like, drop that beat.
01:51:11
Speaker
I just want to say there's these two guys that have a little ledge to stand on with, it looks like no way to get off the ledge. There's no guardrail. They are just next to this kyber crystal beam.
01:51:31
Speaker
Hand will have that shield down. It's not his name. So it turns out that was Billy Dee Williams. He read the script. He's like, I memorized it as Han. I'm going to say Han.
01:51:41
Speaker
And then whoever did... i vaguely... ah Not vaguely, but I do know that story. Whoever did Solo was just like, well, he calls him Han the whole time. Might as well lean into it. Han it up.
01:51:54
Speaker
I mean, explaining that in Solo is fine. Explaining Solo in Solo is not... Well, and you know what? it's The entire movie is how did he get this, this, this, and this? Yeah.
01:52:04
Speaker
His name, his gun, his jacket, his ship. His ship. His Wookiee. was going to say his life partner. And how how his Wookiee got his nickname. like It's like you explain every fucking thing.
01:52:17
Speaker
The nickname and the last name are the most egregious. Yes. Because it's like, oh, you're alone solo. And then it's just like chebe Chewbacca. I'm not saying that over and over. Why not? I always did. Awesome. Wonderful. Yeah. You know what? grand trip The ship is the one I'm like, okay, that was going to happen. I knew the ship was going to be there. Yeah, if I meet someone they're like, my name is Joseph, and I'm like, Joseph or Joe? And they're like, yeah, Joe's fine. Okay, cool.
01:52:41
Speaker
I'm not like, I'm going to call you Joe. I'm not saying Joseph all the time. What's your name? Matthew. you don't know why I'm saying it like Lando. What's your name? Matthew. I'm not saying Matthew the whole time. Because Alden Aaron Wright, for how much i I think he did fine, he doesn't have that Han Solo voice. so I'm not calling you chewy that hold a Chewbacca the whole time. He did fine. There's just no world. He grows up and becomes Harrison Ford.
01:53:03
Speaker
No, we've seen him growing up. He was in Weapons just this year. Yeah, and he looks like not him. He doesn't look like Harrison Ford. He was Weapons? Yeah, he was the cop. The co-op. He's the fucking co-op.
01:53:15
Speaker
The one that's cheating on his wife with the main character girl. Seriously? Yeah, that's Han Solo. i don't remember us talking about that guy yeah sorry star war point of that i i was say i had a big hit in my mouth i was like derrick's not being racist it's just a person of color in a star wars movie take notice because we talked for many years not we on the show but just us as a human humanity about how lando was like such a terrible wig on That's his hair. No, not from the back.
01:53:48
Speaker
That's not his hair. that's his that's it's just it's This is 1983, but that's 1970s hair. That's what it looked like. That's his hair. Although, it's funny you mention that because George Lucas was toying with him doing his shaved head, and he's like, too militant.
01:54:03
Speaker
He's supposed to be a beatnik, like a hippie. Yeah. Not a fucking, ah well, skinhead. Yeah. I'm not a Nazi. You might be a Nazi.
01:54:18
Speaker
You just imagine Luke just being like, Emperor, bite this curve. So look, what do you think right here Emperor really wanted wanted to happen? He's like, strike me down in anger and you'll be a part of the dark side.
01:54:31
Speaker
Does he know Vader's going to do that? I think he's testing Vader. I think this whole thing has been testing Vader. Yeah. ah No, this whole. I think he's done with Vader. I think he wants Luke to kill Vader because Luke is stronger. Bam. That's what I think is going on. The Emperor also put a bunch of really weird, stupid stuff. But also, he already put so much stuff into into Vader. He's like, step it up. He put bad stuff. He doesn't care about spending money. He put bad stuff.
01:54:56
Speaker
all the All Vader's equipment's antiquated. Well, doesn't he absorb if he if he does what Master Splinter did? What was his name? The fucking... Tony Shalhoub? No.
01:55:07
Speaker
The Highlander? Master Splinter? That one guy that can be young, that can... defy death pal palpatine well that is palpatine not palpatine plagueis plagueis darth plagueis i'm just questioning where splinter came from because i couldn't think of his name master splinter you know darth plagueis yeah exactly um plagueis will like doesn't he kill his accolades Well, that's the rule of two. The Sith thing was like, there can only be two. There's a master and an apprentice, and eventually the apprentice will overthrow the master and get his own apprentice. That's Bane's rule. Sidious doesn't follow that. He follows the rule of one, meaning I am the one to rule all of them. So at this point, he's like, well, one one of two things is going to happen. Either Vader is going to kill me and take my spot, or I find a new acolyte to kill Vader, and then I can make i can use them, and Luke is more powerful than Vader. so yeah. that makes all the sense to me especially when you've in a rule of tool the rule of of rule of two but city rule of tool that's 46 and two not the rule of two the rule of 46 and two the uh that would be fine if the emperor didn't actually not believe in that love this by the way fuck yeah it is it's wonderful just fucking lasso in that dude oh broken fucking neck and sternum everything else and no the durasteel protected him That might be another reason why i like this as a child. It had a lot more real explosions. Yeah.
01:56:38
Speaker
And I am saying explosions because they're not explosions. Dude. They're just explosions. You see that as a kid. I was like, oh, they smashed that robot. just just You know, you're a kid. You don't think about the real life repercussions of things. yeah There are two dudes in that cabin. Was.
01:56:53
Speaker
Now there's one dude's dead body. They they merged. Yeah. There are two dudes who have become one sandwich. Yeah. Wrong way, Han. did Someone just shoot this.
01:57:05
Speaker
i was going to say, like I don't know how to hack it, but watch this.
01:57:13
Speaker
Oh, dear. I love you.
01:57:22
Speaker
unless He had to do it. Look, he had blood in his hands. See it? Yeah. Well, Leia shot. Yeah, but it should have cauterized. ah She's ah anemic.
01:57:36
Speaker
Aqualish. She's half aqualish. Nice. Took me a second, but I got it. You got there.
01:57:50
Speaker
It's probably bad. yeah think it's to be just fine. Much better fight scene this time around. Woo. Like everybody involved got better. He stayed in air and just kind of used the blade as a hand.
01:58:10
Speaker
See, I've always taken this advice to heart. Yeah, you do have that high blood pressure. Good. Look, I just assumed that things like high blood pressure could be cured by my Vader computer chest thing. Yeah. But no, nobody's coming along with that. Now I just breathe funny without the computer. Now I just got to take pills and breathe weird. That's my life.
01:58:34
Speaker
Taking pills and'm breathing weird. Yeah, but these lightsabers take like no time to ignite, so...
01:58:48
Speaker
I think I'll be okay.
01:58:55
Speaker
Even this little tiny bit of score you get is great. Yeah, but that's it's orchestral. That's why it's great. But I'm saying like it's now it's gone. like it's He's not doing a full battle score yet. It's just like little whispers of inspiration, stuff like Derek was saying.
01:59:16
Speaker
Here's Luke's theme.
01:59:23
Speaker
I will almost always choose orchestral over anything. Yeah, especially Johnny Dubs.
01:59:37
Speaker
The Emperor wants to live forever. Yeah. I think that he wants Oh, that was the whole rant I was going on. Doesn't he absorb their life force if he kills them? No, it's not that. just found that's That's the Highlander. They just found a way to...
01:59:52
Speaker
Although, take the midichlorian from them? is No,
Cultural References and Humor in Star Wars
01:59:56
Speaker
he is going to try and possess Force people later in the franchise. Like the whole thing with him, like he tells Rey to strike him down, it's bullshit. He's going to take her over.
02:00:09
Speaker
he's a You won't remember that happening because that was episode 9. I know. Nobody remembers anything from that except Jack. Yeah. And like maybe 45 other people. Who all watch it even though they hate it.
02:00:20
Speaker
Yes. That's a British face if I've ever seen one. Sorry. Oh, look at that. I got British face. Mom said I got a face for radio. I believed her. I have a face for radio. Oh, look at that. Lookie in the sky with diamonds.
02:00:37
Speaker
Love it. A little scoundrel. What are you to about it? Well, I guess you guys done fucked up. Well... ah
02:00:50
Speaker
That's not a very tall room. it's the it's not it's It's an under. Are we still on the ship? Yeah, it's underneath. ah The emperor's right above him. like it's so it's Somebody did the work on it, but these are like the...
02:01:04
Speaker
CPU parts of a computer and upstairs is like the keyboard and monitor part down here is where you have little Nick Nolte guys. It's a server room. Yeah, the Ugnaughts. This is a room thank you literal server room. Yeah, server, server, server, server room. Server, servers.
02:01:20
Speaker
People who serve the servers.
02:01:30
Speaker
So, you have a twin sister. Shouldn't thought about it, dude. Oh, my God. You're thinking about it way... Oh, my God. Get that thought out of your head. you've Okay, so... Stop. you just Now you thought about kissing your sister again. Ew. Hold on. Aunt Plothole. He did know that she was pregnant with twins, right? No.
02:01:49
Speaker
No, because they didn't know that. They didn't know? No, they didn't. That's one thing I remember from episode three. Right? i did the Yeah, it's the very ending. They didn't have ultrasounds yet. and the in the Because it was a long time ago. Yeah, exactly. The score just got ramped up.
02:02:09
Speaker
Luke's tapping into his dark side like some Jedi's do. I know. And the music got changed. There's balance in the Force. And it's good and evil. Again, talking about the High Republic stuff, there's one of the books ends with this dude. Well, not ends, but it's like a big denouement pulling ships out of the sky like Starkiller. Oh, yeah. But because he's all this stuff's happening and he's like, we are going to lose. My friends are going to die. So he pulls these ships out of the sky by tapping into the dark side. And then the whole next book deals with him dealing with that. Yeah. but it's like, you got to do it, man. Windu was close. like he He flirted.
02:02:49
Speaker
And Obi-Wan, that's the only way he was able to beat Maul. He went dark side. He cared about Qui-Gon too much. And it saved him.
02:03:00
Speaker
This might explain why George Lucas got divorced. He's like, anybody who sorry anybody who cares about anybody is going to be evil. So fuck my wife, even though she made these movies successful. Man, I got to tell you i wish I was made of robots.
02:03:13
Speaker
yeah Without her editing, nobody would have liked that first one. Well, ah who was it? Brian De Palma, Francis Ford Coppola, Steven Spielberg. All those guys like watched it and were like, oh, there was only one that said he liked it. I can't remember who it is now.
02:03:29
Speaker
Like, George, you gotta try again, homie. Yeah. And then wifey came along, re-edited that shit, and boom. History. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. i did not know that. Oh, yeah.
02:03:39
Speaker
I've said before, like, Star is... Behind every great I will always say, is a better woman. Not behind me. Hence the reason four, five, and six are better than one, two, three, because they were divorced at that point. Uh-huh.
02:03:52
Speaker
I mean, so I always say like, okay, there's the last real explosion in Star Wars. It's a good one. It's a great one. That was a bada boom.
02:04:03
Speaker
Because these explosions, I mean, these are real, but they're like superimposed. What the fuck does that mean? the hell is superimposed? me But like, that's the first the last like real one on a surface.
02:04:21
Speaker
great lightning fingers. Bam! At this point, we've never seen that. He has wonderful lightning fingers. That's the first force lightning we've ever seen. It's like, what the fuck did he just do?
02:04:35
Speaker
it's That's a high level. whoever made episode one, two, and three just loved Palpatine this whole time. well george George Lucas wrote and directed all three of them. This, he wrote the first one, helped write two and three with his ideas. He had a lot of help making this original trilogy. A lot of things fell into place. Yeah. And, and you know, Ralph McQuarrie, his wife editing, big one. The people that were working on it.
02:05:01
Speaker
God, those are beautiful. I mean, every major special effects. Take it back to episode two with Count Dooku. Bad lightning fingers. Great lightning fingers here. well Aside from Tom Savini, basically, maybe Rick Baker.
02:05:15
Speaker
He might have been something in Star Wars. every Almost every major special effects guy from the 80s and 90s worked on this. Yeah. Because, you know, George, for for better or worse, was just like, i don't know, just do something fun and let him play. and they're like, I'll fucking play.
02:05:42
Speaker
Yeah, Vader could have definitely had an upgrade of his suit, but Palpatine made it weak on purpose, put failsafe in there so he could never take him over. Yeah. Which is the opposite of rule two. Rule two is you're supposed to teach your apprentice enough to kill you.
02:05:56
Speaker
That's how you know you've done a good job is you're dead. but he was like yeah But he was like, no, I'm not i too good. I'm fucking top notch.
02:06:17
Speaker
Just screaming all the way down that tunnel. So this is George Lucas ending Emperor's dead dead capital dead never coming back dead. Yeah fast forward That what we saw that explosion was his force essence transferring That's how he somehow came back yeah
02:06:40
Speaker
Why do people think he came back? He did. How? In episode nine, somehow. No, he couldn't have had the chick. We've made fun of it a bunch of times, but it's... Oscar Isaac has the line, right?
02:06:54
Speaker
Yeah, because it's him talking with ah oh one of the hobbitses.
02:07:01
Speaker
Anyway, yeah he's like... The Emperor's back? Somehow the Emperor came back. Somehow the returned. And it's since been explained with Force Transfer, clones, Strandcast clones, Midichlorian from Grogu. It's like the first fucking two minutes of something of that ninth movie. And it was just like, somehow the Emperor returned. And we were at the theater watching it, and I remember going, ugh. All right.
02:07:28
Speaker
Well, I bought this ticket. I'm not leaving. Yeah. Yeah.
02:07:33
Speaker
I'm like, I'm not even 100% you bringing the Emperor back. I don't like it, but if you're going to do it, show your work. Yeah, don't just say, m what do you mean he's back? He's back.
02:07:45
Speaker
Here it is. Oh, lost the satellite dish. Star Fox got a lot of inspiration from this scene. Yeah, what didn't? Well, a lot of yeah, you're right. But theres the the original Star Fox on SNES, there's a whole part where you're flying into like a Death Star.
02:08:02
Speaker
Only on the inside, instead of just shooting a core, you have to fight giant floating hands. but Oh, no. That seems worse. Yeah, it's Andross. He's got little glowy orbs in his hands. Well, here goes this guy whose name you can't remember.
02:08:18
Speaker
Well, it doesn't matter now. Bye-bye. Don't dive. Why dive away? I mean, I guess it's just instinct. It's not going to matter. It's instinct, yeah. that that The exposed bridge was such a terrible idea.
02:08:32
Speaker
The Star Destroyers are a bad idea in general. It's like, well, we have to get a good view of what's going on. it's like, we never heard of cameras. It's a, it, they're, oh, you know what? Palpatine had him designed like that because it's a Sith relic design channels, dark side.
02:08:52
Speaker
Someone came up with a design. They were like, we can put the bridge on the inside and then put cameras on. He's like, no. On the top of it. to channel Put it on top. That's a terrible design. Do it. do it
02:09:07
Speaker
So we just rewatched Chasing Amy. I'm thinking about this. Oh, I just was having it go through my head right now the The black comic book artist who ends up being super gay, but he's supposed to be like the really militant, like black guy. and he's like, man, fuck Star Wars. He's like, Darth Vader, the blackest dude in the galaxy. And even then, at the end of the whole thing, they tell you all of us inside are just these lily ass white dudes. Well, aren't you trying to be white? And then, yeah, Jason Lee. But isn't that true?
02:09:40
Speaker
And for those who haven't seen Chasing Amy, it's just a bit they set up. We're not laughing. He's all fucked up. Again, not... Prowse. David Prowse, yes.
02:09:51
Speaker
This is Sebastian Stan? No. No, he's the one who's alive now. Sebastian Shaw. A.K.A. Humpty Dumpty.
02:10:09
Speaker
No, I just met you and I love you, Papa Papa? I'll never let you go, Papa Tell your sister
02:10:28
Speaker
Oh man, we're definitely going know what version we get when we see a force ghost Oh yeah
02:10:36
Speaker
Because is it going to be Sebastian Shaw or is it going to be Hayden Christensen? Hayden? I'm Hayden the day they added that. guys. We're watching it on an internet stream.
02:10:48
Speaker
I just like how... Dubious source. I like how it's like Obi-Wan gets old Alec Guinness and you get fucking Anakin gets to be a young version. Like, the fuck? How come he gets to be the young one?
02:11:00
Speaker
ha ha. I'm not that old, you know. It's just a hard life on Tatooine. It's got two sons, twice the sunburns. i'm actually only 43.
02:11:11
Speaker
I'm at a hard 43.
02:11:16
Speaker
Again, this is, it's just because I grew up playing Star Fox on my Super Nintendo. It was like one of my favorite games. Okay. This is straight from that.
02:11:26
Speaker
Or vice versa. Vice versa. Yeah. Vice versa. I was like, I'm not to let that fly. Yeah, you know what I meant. This is my fourth beer. Calm down. Don't judge out loud.
02:11:40
Speaker
I love that Mon Calmar just wearing their fucking leisure whites, by the way. like These guys have bell bottoms. They're ready to go bomb a coastline or hit the discotheque.
02:11:51
Speaker
I mean, yeah. It makes sense for the Navy. It's a dance. Yeah, true. What kind of music is this? It's Trap!
02:12:09
Speaker
Don't you hear the triplets?
02:12:12
Speaker
Alright, we just won the entire war. Let's get the fuck out of here. Just kidding. The war ends on Jakku.
02:12:22
Speaker
cause you gotta Wow, that's really close in their atmosphere. They can fucking see it. Oh, yeah. Oh, they're all getting rained down upon. They're all dead. It was closer than our moon. Yeah. Luckily, there's no water on this planet. Otherwise, it'd be fucking up their tides.
02:12:37
Speaker
It's true. I mean, there has to be water. Look at this planet. It's lush. Little bodies of water. The trees took all that shit. That's why they're so big. So big. But yeah, you got a bunch of Imperials that would just not believe the Emperor's dead.
02:12:53
Speaker
He's their antichrist.
02:13:01
Speaker
Of course I love him. He's a great kisser. And my brother.
02:13:07
Speaker
i won't get in the way. I'll just watch in this chair. fuck you, Han. In the corner of the room. You have sex with Luke and I'll watch Smoking a Death Stick. She's let me get one of Lando's capes. You can wear it and sit in the corner. Did I hear my name out there?
02:13:23
Speaker
Okay, you can watch too. He's like, but you guys fucking kissed. Yeah, that's that look. Oh, brother and sister. Oh, oh, oh. Gross, I can taste your brother. Ew, you taste like Luke. You kissed just like him. I mean, nothing.
02:13:39
Speaker
Don't worry. He's not competition for you because he's my brother. All right, Wicket, get in here. She's already kissed her brother. might as well fucking Ewok. It's the next progression. That's how you get a hairball in your vagina.
02:13:50
Speaker
Ewok it out. Ooh, I want that horn. so good try It's triple. right. This is the moment of truth, folks. Moment of truth. Well, not yet. I was like, wait a minute. First, we have to barbecue.
02:14:02
Speaker
Here's the theme again. The haunting version. Okay.
Victory Celebration and Different Versions
02:14:06
Speaker
Because no matter what yeah you think about the prophecy, Lucas has said Anakin was the one. Because he's the one that killed the emperor.
02:14:15
Speaker
Luke is just the catalyst that got him to remember that he's human. Well, and without Anakin, there was no Luke. Right. So. But it's just, this is, this, this song is for him, Derek. I put it on for him.
02:14:30
Speaker
oh God, that stinks. I'm just imagining all John Williams in a room right Wire fire. it just smells like yeah ozone. Oh yeah, this is the shitty one, right? Yeah, here we go. here's Coruscant.
02:14:42
Speaker
Our first time. no, wait, that's Bespin.
02:14:46
Speaker
I'm going to pull up the, uh, that's gotta be best bit with those twin towers. Nope. Nope. And who's this? There's a tattoo Wayne. Is it tattooing? Oh yeah. Desert in the back. Yeah. Tatooine millions of people there. There's the boo. You can see the fricking jar jars, the Gungans, the jar jars.
02:15:08
Speaker
There's course on our first time seeing it. Right? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, you've never seen it before this. Where's the emperor statue? Topple that statue. There it goes.
02:15:23
Speaker
Whoa. Okay. There's actually a really, really good, I believe it's canon book called Aftermath, and it deals with Coruscant after the fact.
02:15:35
Speaker
You think we'd get knocked for playing Yub Nub?
02:15:40
Speaker
I don't know. We'll find out. No, this ain't it No, but I mean, I might play it on the microphone. if If we get knocked, I'll just put the episode back up without it. Yeah, there you go. but wait Look at all these Stormtrooper helmets that are empty. Why are they empty? do you like that stew wedge?
02:15:58
Speaker
How's your stew wedge Antilles? It's delicious.
02:16:07
Speaker
Even R2's dancing. A week and a half later, all these Ewoks are fat. It's so weaker without the Yub Nub song, which is still pretty stupid. Yeah. But this isn't this isn't banging enough. I think it's perfect. Oh, you know, there are not enough drums.
02:16:25
Speaker
Because there's a bunch of you up to drumming. Just wait until hear the toto version. was going to say, yeah, let's hold your... Keep your thought you have right now. Lock on to that. Because you're about to hear what I think is a better version.
02:16:42
Speaker
la yeah Oh, he was not there before. Even Yoda's like, wait, why am I the 900 year old version of myself? In the original version, it was Sebastian Shaw, the guy who played Vader without his helmet.
02:16:55
Speaker
I don't like that. Why would you? Because if you're to do it. Everybody else is their older version. If you're going to do it, and I don't want you to do this, but do everybody. Dretched. Dretched? Yes! Dretched by Richard Marquand. And that's it, everybody. That is it. However, I mean, we're not done recording, but that's the end of the movie.
02:17:14
Speaker
Why didn't they put you in? Put me in what?
02:17:20
Speaker
But why didn't they have Ewan McGregor? so i not Ewan. I'm going to play. Yeah. No. Yeah. Yeah. Obi-Wan. Yeah. Obi. I'm going to play the real song. have to pee. Again? Just wait. I have to pee again. I'm the one who peed last. I know. I peed first. Did we roll reverse?
02:17:41
Speaker
Good. I've been doing little pause. You've been having sex with little homeless kids? So here's what it should have been.
02:17:53
Speaker
I remember that. Starting off better. All the way better.
02:18:20
Speaker
fire So this is this is Toto Phil Tippett, that's a name you know Phil Tippett's a big effects guy I love this one yeah Yeah, why did they cut this out?
02:18:34
Speaker
And like even if you want to add yeah the scenes that you're adding Does this not work over Naboo? Does this not work over Coruscant? Of course it does You think Joseph Williams was asking for too much money?
02:18:49
Speaker
Joseph William. But it's just, it's so i like how they still have Jeremy Bullock listed in the cast, even though on this, oh I guess he's the body still. Never still the body. Never mind.
02:19:03
Speaker
Tamora Morrison did the voice. Yeah. Tams came in and did a half a day of work. And I love Tams.
02:19:13
Speaker
And here I am. I'm looking at the video because I'm pulling this up on YouTube. That's Sebastian Shaw.
02:19:26
Speaker
Now it's giving me a lot of Fraggle Rock. but Yeah. Pre-Fraggle Rock, though, so if anybody stole anything... Jim Henson stole it. Oh, look, there's ah someone named Guy Claws.
02:19:38
Speaker
That's Santa Claus's really weird, normal brother.
02:19:45
Speaker
so yeah i wish... It's the only time tonight I wish we had video is your face when you were coming to that Dude, that's that ending, like... It's like this other one just ended up with like Well you want to wrap up with some final thoughts Yeah we'll do final thoughts And we'll let these people stop listening to us jib jab Yeah oh yo Somebody was a jeweler love that listening twist ye no um Me being the guest On your guys on Jack's Haunting Shocks first no um It's show It is I'm going to change my name to Peggy Kashuba
02:20:25
Speaker
I'll be Steve Starkey and Conrad Buff. like I keep saying normal names like Robert Marty. Oh, sorry. roy ah with Normal names like Roy Abergast.
02:20:36
Speaker
Actually, know a guy whose last name is Abergast. Shut the fuck up and let your your wife talk. All right. You're doing Deborah fine. I am. That's exactly where I was at. Oh, June Broom. I don't use that in July.
02:20:50
Speaker
Um, I, I definitely would appreciate the other one better. Yeah. I give, but I can see why Lucas was just very excited to throw this bullshit. don't even think she's thinking the ending, all the added shit, like just saw the star. Because Whitney was able to, okay.
02:21:07
Speaker
Whitney, not being the star Wars fan that either of us are, was able to just, was able to just visually pick out not everything not added. That's not real. And that's not good. That's not a good thing. Like it shouldn't stand out like that. So we did, we did watch this because it's the easiest one to watch. Otherwise would have been watching our four K's that I hope it won't be bootleg someday.
02:21:29
Speaker
I want everyone to enjoy them that way.
Preferences for Star Wars Movies
02:21:31
Speaker
But yeah this is up there with one of my favorite Star Wars movies. It's super fun. I love the practical costumes. I love the rogues gallery.
02:21:39
Speaker
I do watch it every Halloween. um Some years with sound, some years without. But i I'll watch this in a couple months if anybody wants to. Like that kind of that kind of mentality.
02:21:50
Speaker
I think this is the, as far as the special edition goes, this is the the best of the special editions because it's the it feels like the least changed. The song infuriates me the most. the two The two moments that infuriate me the most are musical moments. The Cantina song, at least you can get up and make a sandwich. Yeah. And then the the ending song, it's like, why? That other song, it's not a great song, but it's so much more like fitting for the end of your trilogy than just like... book tu tu tu tuu and it's the one that i need some generic space tribal music. It's so boring, they the redone one.
02:22:23
Speaker
This is probably my... I can't remember how I ranked it when we did it way back at the beginning, but I'm going say this is my fourth. I have it listed. It's probably my third. This is my fourth or fifth favorite, because it would go... Five and four are pretty closely tied because without four, there can't be a five.
02:22:39
Speaker
Correct. So five, I think, is better. <unk> It's more fun to watch, but without five, there can't be. Yeah, but that's a weird way to rank things. Four and five, i think, are pretty much tied. And then we're somewhere with Rogue One, Last Jedi for me, and then this comes right after that. Okay. And we'll get to Last Jedi soon and we'll have a whole talk that. That's going to be like three and a half hours because I have a lot to say about that fucking one. Can't do that commentary style. Nope. We've got lot to talk about. Nope. It's going to be like, all right, Derek, pause. Okay. Okay. right, Derek, pause. All right, everybody listening, pause.
02:23:10
Speaker
Pause. Everyone pause. But yes, I love it. Okay, pause again. Derek said something stupid. Pause again. I still love it. I don't have problem with the Ewoks, really. Like, I understand they're just there to sell toys, but also the way they did it, I think it worked. I'm more fine with it now as an adult, and like as as a, not even kid, but like that teen that that just angry at everything already. I'm like, why is it it so fucking cute?
02:23:32
Speaker
Now I'm like, yeah, it's cute. Whatever, get over it, dude. and i did. I got over it. You got over it once you got an Ewok that you could cuddle while you fall asleep? Mm-hmm. I always loved him, so. yeah But yeah, but i mean it's great. And thank you guys. And maybe that's what it was. Maybe he was trying to get more girls into it.
02:23:47
Speaker
He doesn't like girls. If you like girls, he wouldn't put Leia in the gold bikini.
