Guests
Notes
Film
- Starts with Leia blasting some speeder bikers, and ends with the Emperor chastising Vader for not waiting in the car.
- The denouement of the speeder bike chase.
- More Ewok dialog: "hatcha!" (spicy!) and another "yub yub".
Podcast
- Asterios is more discerning in his consumption of media these days.
- For a lot of current nerds, ROTJ is the first Star Wars movie they saw, so they are most attached to it.
- Kids today being into the Prequels. Pro Jar Jar backlash.
- Referenced: This is Madness.
- Princess Leia is considered one of the strongest female characters in sci-fi, but does she actually do that much in the movies?
- Referenced: "Don't Go Breaking my Heart".
- She did kill Jabba the Hutt.
- None of the other characters in this movie do a whole lot either.
- Consider Leia in the context of her time; there were so few women in science fiction at that time. It was revolutionary that she was a princess yet she was sassy. Now, everything is sassy. It's a very sassy time we live in.
- Ewok fact of the day: Ewok jerky (jerky made out of Ewoks).
Meta Minute
- 29:54 podcast episode length.
- Beginning in 2016, listener Michael W. posted his own yearly SWM Bracket[t] to the SWMLS, available here.
- General Rieekan's first name is 'Carlist', which was brought up on the SWM Wives episode. I guess you could shorten it to 'Carl' if you wanted to.
Quotes
- Alex: (as the Emperor) Execute minute 66.
- Asterios:...I mean 'bad' in the Michael Jackson sense, in that it's great! Pete: That Wicket is one bad mother— Asterios: <talking over Pete> —to hate. I hate them. Alex: [...] I'm getting whiplash... Asterios: [...] hate how much I love them! Alex: And you love how much you hate them.
- Asterios: (as Admiral Ackbar) ♪Don't go breaking my heart!♪ (as Mon Mothma) ♪Many Bothans di-hiiied♪.
- Alex: (as Luke) <whining> Come onnn! Turn good!
