Qui-Gon and Jar Jar pull themselves out of the mud.

The Bens: Acker and Blacker

Odd (old-fashioned?) film pacing in TPM
- Humanizing dialogue cut out to make room for more effects shots
Referenced: The Terminator, Prometheus, "By Mennen" Jingle, Love Actually, Jonathan Winters, Bob Newhart (stammering), Tim Gunn, A Christmas Story
Mentioned: What does Jar Jar smell/feel like?, From time to time
English-speaking Chewbacca?
Unintelligible Jar Jar dialogue
The non-threat of the droid troop transport
Jar Jar character design
- Compare/contrast with Ewoks
Another shoutout to Matt Gourley
Lucas' anti-faith bent
Movies we'd like to see: Chewie and his tutor rom-com, Han and Chewie college roommates
Ring theory: ROTJ Minute 12 is the Droid torture scene, which parallels Jar Jar's shrieking
Cut scene: lightsaber maintenance

Flash forward: Although not explicitly stated in the movie, Chewbacca did appear to have a bit of a thing going on with Doctor Harter Kalonia
