Notes

Film

• Starts with Hux wondering why they can't blow up three tiny cruisers. Ends with Leia's icy hand reaching out.

Podcast

• Referenced: "From my cold, dead hands".

 Digression into Charlton Heston.
  Referenced: Planet of the Apes. Also: the music video for "The Heat Is On" by Glenn Frey.
   Compare Glenn Frey to Charlton Heston in agony from Planet of the Apes.

Jack Mack (from Jack Mack and the Heart Attack) on talk shows doing his "rock and roll face" with little to no provocation.

Leia in Space

• Maybe it is not a "hard vacuum", but a soft vacuum since the energy shield does extend beyond the ship.
• Suzen gives us the real science of what happens when you're exposed to vacuum.
  • The dogs (and chimps) in vacuums experiments.
  • Humans who have accidentally been exposed to vacuum.

Meta Minute
